"Education is the movement from darkness to light." - Allan Bloom
Life to me is a journey of enlightenment.
Challenging yourself every day.
A continual journey of growth.
Improving yourself at every available moment.
To use the analogy of light.
Life can be seen like a light with a dimmer switch.
Except the dimmer switch is infinite - there isn't a 'brightest' setting you can ever reach.
You come into the world in complete darkness.
A blank canvas.
Completely malleable, with a thirst for knowledge.
Each day represents a 'click' brighter than the last day on the dimmer switch.
The more time that passes, the brighter you get.
The more knowledge you consume.
The more clarity of the world is open to you.
The more you educate yourself, the brighter your light.
Whether you sit in darkness or seek the light is in learning.
How bright your light shines is up to you.
Strive to live, live to strive.
