Mission Statement:
True education teaches by the mentorship and example of others, providing information and resources. Schooling is not necessarily education, but indoctrination. Learning is a natural capacity of every human being.

Learning
We are all teachers first and learners second. The direct experience of life is our own best teacher. True education is the liberation of the human spirit from the bondage of ignorance and fear.
Learning ranges from simple forms of learning such as habituation and classical conditioning seen in many animal species, to more complex activities such as play, seen only in relatively intelligent animals and humans. Therefore, in general, a learning can be conscious and not conscious.

Wisdom
Wisdom is having gained knowledge, understanding, experience, discretion, and intuitive understanding, along with a capacity to apply these qualities well. It is the judicious application of knowledge.[citation needed] To some extent the terms wisdom and intelligence have similar and overlapping meanings. The status of wisdom or prudence as a virtue is recognized in cultural, philosophical and religious sources.Source: Wikipedia/Wisdom

"Most people seem to have some kind of rainbow attraction that continually escapes them. If they search for it for a thousand years, they may find its peace. With this program, I learn the sensory science of walking out my back door and thinking with the colorful purity of a rainbow...with the trees, the grass, the song of the wind...the clouds. I do fun activities that enable nature's self-correcting balance and beauty to flow through my psyche and I teach people this path to well-being as part of my livelihood."Jack Canfield

Education is liberation !! I something that we invest in that can never be taken from us nor will ever do us any harm .. knowkedge and experience help us gain understanding and ultimately wisdom ,, the crown of glory in our older years .. It is true that we need to seek teachers in life ,, then there comes a time that our teachers come to us in the form of students ,,
i look forward to being a member of this group .. edcation is important to me .. I have had the honour and privilige to guide and direct my five sons through life ,, teaching them all that i could ,, I would like to say taht thier Academic performance was not the first thing that I looked at when the report cards ame in i loked first to see how they were socializing ,, this is so important ,, because socializing with peers is a part of development . It is true that if we miss a stage in life we will have to go back and get that stage in other words ,the character and values of our youth are being molded into thier personalities in these delicate adolescent years ,, T his then the stage where education and the system that provides need meet that need , to build a stronger tommorrow and a stronger world .,,
we sas parents have an enormous job ,, I think if we focus on developing the positive attitude and the work effort,, all other things wil come ,, the sucess that we desire for our children and for all those who seek it is accomplished by saying contiually ,, there is no mountain too high to climb,

Waking Giant News
Thank God for Evolution by Michael Dowd | Plume Paperback
What follows is the new preface...
As we observe the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin and the 150th anniversary of his landmark book, On the Origin of Species, evolution has become firmly established as the central organizing principle of the biological sciences. Natural explanations for the growth of complexity through time ground all the other sciences, as well, from cosmology and chemistry to neuroscience and psychology. That everything within this universe has emerged through natural processes operating over vast spans of time is now well beyond dispute among scientists and the educated public. Yet even today, families and public school systems remain divided and the evolutionary worldview is still shunned by millions, perhaps billions, of religious believers around the world. Why?
