Random thoughts :)

Do we really learn things?

Over time, I have realized that one should remind oneself of his/her learning curve. One should be aware of the things learnt from time to time. Every day is a different day in some sense even for a person who follows an exact same routine. A day can be different due to several reasons related to emotions, work, feelings, situations, happenings, events, and what not. With all these things, we learn something. 

'Time never waits for anyone'. It moves on. It is therefore very important to remind oneself of one's progress and learning. Human race is progressing and with time the ocean of knowledge is growing. The learning is important as the world has moved from a common knowledge to specialization. 

Having learnt so much (acquired knowledge), can we still answer questions like:

1. Which is the best classroom in the world?
2. When is a day really a good day?
3. When do I feel better about myself?
4. Which is the most peaceful feeling for me?
5. What is the importance of the things that we do for ourselves?
6. What is the importance of the things that we do for others?
7. What is the importance of a sincere apology?
8. What is the importance of harsh words uttered?
9. What is an innocence of a child?
10. What is the importance of saying 'No' or saying 'Yes'?
11. What is the strength of helping others?
12. When do you need a friend?
13. What is the function of heart to a person?
14. What is the meaning of time to us?
15. What is the meaning of life to us?
......

and the list goes on.....


Learning about what one has learnt is very important for self-development (personal-development). We must keep asking ourselves questions like above to help ourselves improve. I wish I can store my learning in some words, I find it extremely difficult. Sometimes words deceive me and at other times, feelings turn their faces away from me, and yet at other times mind does not accept to code the learning into words.

But we have to live, so we should live happily, purposefully, respectfully, and with energy and enthusiasm. This can be achieved by reflection on the learning achieved from various things, occasions, feelings, emotions, situations, people, groups, surroundings, environments, etc.
