Success to life

     Education is  today viewed as the main way to success in life. To me the importance of education are endless. The satisfaction of accomplishment on receiving a college degree is one that cannot easily be forgotten. College education is becoming even more important than it has been in the past. A bachelor's degree is now becoming a minimum requirement for many jobs that previously only required a high school degree. It is important to have an education for your own satisfaction, as well for better job opportunities .I imagine that receiving a college degree will be  a wonderful and  fulfilling experience. Obtaining the degree requires a certain level of commitment, perseverance and patience.


There are  different types of education, there is the formal education, like school, the lifetime education,  when you learn through difficult situations as well as the education received by our parents. But a good education is not just useful for the progress of the country; the advancement lies in the nature of every human .People in these days do actually have the will to know what is going on in the world around them, they want to know what the government needs all the tax money for, they want to understand what a new law is supposed to mean and all this would be impossible without a good formal education. The perceived goal of education is to make the individual and the society 'better' . In our rush to get everybody educated, we do not consider it important to ask ourselves why we need education. Education has been taken for granted. If fact this notion has been so strongly developed that we tend to overlook the implementation of this activity.


Such assumptions need to be questioned. We as a society need to find out the achievement of this system in real terms. We must first take a look at why people perceive education to be a desirable thing. The most common answer was that education makes people progressive in some sense and is necessary for the advancement of a civilized society. Very few people admitted, that it provides employment opportunities. It is interesting that educated people in a formal conversation find it improper to question the most popularly held view among the people that education opens up more job opportunities.Every country has a different education system. Differences include teaching styles, credit system, and even student life. Lebanon is a developing country, so we need many talented people to build the country. That is why we need to have a good education system because it is an important factor for future economic development. Lebanon’s wealth is measured by its educated population and not by its gold nor by its oil. Therefore, the process of education is considered so important in our society that no parents, who can afford it, can imagine having their children go uneducated. It has become such an integral part of our lives that for most people, completing the process of education appears to be a habit. Education is very important for our lives. Without education people wouldn't have their high-developed machine and would believe that the Earth is flat. As for me I have my reasons why I want to get high education.


First reason I want to get high education is for career purpose. At an early age my parents  often told me that education is very important so that I may find a good job. And this is true because if you want to be a doctor or a lawyer, or an engineer you must have an education. I think that it is easier to begin my career not from nothing, but with the experience and all education that I would gain in college.


Also I want to get a high education because I enjoy learning. All my life I’ve  thought that it is very important to be independent. I didn’t like to ask my parents to help me with my homework and I will sit with my homework  till late night. I felt more independent doing it myself rather than receiving help from someone else. High education is very important to me. I want to get a high education for career purpose and for my family. For I will be the first to graduate from high school and go to college. These are all the reasons why I find education important.
