IS EDUCATION STILL THE BEST LEGACY?
“Education is the best legacy,” they say. But sometimes, I wonder if that statement still holds true in today's society.
Growing up, we were told to go to school, study hard, and acquire certificates so we could become great in life. Our parents sacrificed so much, believing that education would secure our future. But today, after years of studying, we are told to acquire skills because certificates alone may not take us anywhere.
It is disheartening to see graduates struggle to find jobs, while the certificates they worked so hard to obtain seem to count for little or nothing. Imagine spending years in school, only to graduate into a society where opportunities are scarce and unemployment is the order of the day.
There is nothing wrong with learning a skill, but shouldn't education still count for something? What happens to the dreams, sacrifices, and hopes attached to those certificates?
Perhaps education is still the best legacy, but what is the value of a legacy that struggles to provide the future it promised?
Education is legacy, but not agree with the BEST in the sentence, many people will suffer after graduating from school, because what is the real purpose of education if a person cannot use it to sustain themselves? I would prefer someone go for vocational or practical skills.
Thank you
