Educate the World



We don't know how lucky we are to be able to sit in a classroom equipped with luxurious facilities.

Kids in Africa don't even have pen and papers to write on, kids in Palestine put their lives at stake to go to school. Swarm of armies waiting in line with their guns, not letting them pass the route to school.

On this side of the hemisphere, we keep on glancing at the clock every minute wishing for the draggy lecture to be dismissed. We take the weather as an excuse to escape classes. We blame our parents for not letting us pick our own career paths. Haven't we realise how lucky we are, to have the chance to gain knowledge in a comfortable room?

Are we just spoiled with choices? Or are we just ungrateful of what we have? Shame on us.
