No words can explain how deeply people want to connect with each other. How much pain they will suffer trying to be accepted, to be valued and to be loved. The yearning to be wanted is probably the most trauma that some individuals will ever inflict up on themselves. No matter race, colour, creed, sexual orientation, religion, culture, gender, age or any other factor, what everyone wants is to belong, to connect, to be loved. It is so easy to reach out to someone yet, for some it is the most difficult thing to find someone to connect to. Reach out to those you meet in your daily march. You just never know whose life you might touch, what spark, even unknowingly, you may make.

Is education really that important?

Interesting article about the value of education

Have a read. It strikes some truths. My cousin left school with no qualifications at all and is probably one of the most well read, informed and intelligent people I know. An education is not all about academia, but rather the world in which we live, our place in it, our relationships with each other and the world around us and living. My cousin certainly knows much more about many more topics than I even with my five university awards and extensive education. He certainly gives a run to brains! Just because someone 'dropped out' of school doesn't immediately make them unintelligent or less knowledgeable about the world and on-goings in it than those of us who consider ourselves 'educated'. Interesting read.
