Learning...we earn it!!!

"The acquisition of knowledge or skills through experience, practice, or study, or by being taught"...this is what learning is defined as in the dictionary..I strongly agree with it. Though we learn through our experiences, practices or studies, we learn through experiences the most. From the time we are born till death we gain and earn knowledge and that is learning. As babies we learn to cry, laugh, drink, eat..then as toodlers we learn to walk and talk..when young and teens, we learn from our parents, grandparents how to be good and behave and obey them and others. We learn at school from our teachers and peer to tolerate each other, becomes friends with each others.  When we reach our adulthood we again learn from our work place..to be good employers or employees. We learn from others how to respect our job and how to be good and responsible citizens. When we become parents and grandparents we again learn from our children. When one is old, quite old, he learns that this life was too short to learn..now when there is no tooth in the mouth and the hair has turned all grey, muscles have all loosened, eyes dimmed, one recalls what all he has learned from his life and from the lives of others and he learns for the last time in his life that it is over and he has to go far away from all his near and dear ones..and he dies..Thus, the process of learning stays with him till death.
