Many teenagers and kids that are on school constantly feel as though school is just another obligation put onto them by government. Question authority, am I right?
Wrong. School isn't just a silly obligation. School is your best friend. School is your mind. School is your capability, your knowledge, your future. Our future. From the second you step onto the campus to the second you step out, you belong to the future.
See, the thing is the future is up to us. Sure being a teenager you can't control much. However, you control where the future goes. You can make a difference. This isn't a silly be the change article you would find on a lunch ables box but something that could maybe tell you how far you can go with school.
School can show you who you are. School can show you who you could be. You could be the next Mozart. You could be the next Leonardo da vinci. You could be anything. You could be a stay at home mom of two kids. You could be a stay at home dad of two kids. You could be the ceo of the next biggest company. But you have to want it. School doesn't let you ram through. You have to want to get good grades and yu have to want to be respectful and respectable. School is where your life starts.
The thing about school is that most people go, don't do the work, don't try hard, fail and then say “I don't know what happened! I hate school!” You make your experiences. You make high school good or bad. You make college good or bad. You make life good or bad. Your attitude is what ruined the experience. Nothing else. Simply the way you looked at a situation and automatically assumed the worst shows that you don't want it. It being your passion.
School isn't just teaching you fact and statistics that you may never use other than on that chapter 7 exam multiple choice questions 6 and 8. School is about making friends. School is about showing us how to interact with each other in different ways everyday. It's not all about textbooks and notes. School is making us who we are and building our thought processed to what it is now and how we think. School builds passion.
Maybe you are passionate about learning (I dub thee ravenclaw). Maybe you are passionate about saving earth. Or football. Or making friends. Or debates. Or politics. The point is school isn't a load of bull crap that should be written off. School is important. School shows us things we may have never seen before. School shows us things about ourselves that we didn't even know. And that is growth and progression and where would we be without that?
