Do you love to read?
Do you read your mails?
The things you do not know, do you seek to know them?
Do you jump at every opportunity to improve yourself?
Do you listen to the news on TV and Radio?
Do you listen to the news from the people around you?
It was once said that to if you want "to keep a secret from a black man, put it in writing". Pretty much over the years, that saying has proved true and still is true today. Many young people especially find it hard to read and hence, have lost the value proposition in the daily endeavors.
So the question is, do you crave to learn at all? Do you pursue knowledge at all cost? What will uyou do and give for some education?
The Nigerian police have a Phrase they use when they find you at fault and it is “ignorance is no excuse of the law.” Simple. What you do not know is bigger than you.
Always remember that, knowledge is power. Seek knowledge and live knowledgeably to stay ahead of the demeaning curve of poverty and deprivation.

There's another super quote I love on this topic you raised this morning:

Education is key for man to turn his existence into leaving. stop learning, start dying
One flaw I have discovered is that most people identify school with education. The belief that going to school makes educated. But ironically, we have many illiterates with certificates.
Education is a process of increasing knowledge.

Awesome!!!
Knowledge is power and this has been my driving force as i am someone who is always tasty for knowledge. I am very inquisitive about things i dont know.
It is only when we hunger for more that we know more. Complacency is now the order of the day among the young ones, God help our generation.
Lovely post @ejemai

This truth:
...thankfully doesn't apply to me. But I won't deny the validity of the saying.
And this poor reading culture, I fear, isn't going to be abated in a long time coming.

I once heard a story of a Prof, who got stranded on the road, with his faulty car. Lucky for him, a Bike man passed, and offered to send to him a mechanic. The mechanic came, used a small stone to hit the head of the battery, and told him to start the car. The Prof did, and the car started. The Prof asked him what the Bill was, the man said "10,000 naira". Shocked, the Prof asked, what did you do? The man said, "100 naira, for the stone, 9,900 naira for knowing what to hit the stone with". Knowledge is indeed powerful.
