Do & Learn (Do - Learn)

I heard innumerable times that apart from others things- Life is a process of learning. Learning, it may be, but learning what? Well there is a lot of learning to do.

The first half of our life we learning to coordinate, walk, talk, eat, learn to relieve ourselves, interact with our family members and mates, learn about our surroundings, read, write, learning maths, geography, history, science, music, play sports, learn to master the remotes of TVs, PS2s, cell phones,computers etc.

Then for the rest of our lives we learn to come out of schools and colleges, in and out of various jobs, learn more about people, who our friends and enemies are, who are our rivals and allies - and our supporters and detractors.

Some of what we learnt turned out to be true and some turned out to be false.

Then we learn to unlearn a whole lot of things and relearn them. We continue to learn about disappointment. We learn that our dreams get shattered. We learn to get successful. We learn to manage and manipulative {our and other peoples’ life}. We learn to grow up.

Then suddenly the realization comes that learning has slowed down. We feel that our learning days are over. We feel that there is not much left to learn.

Few people put in efforts to continue the process of learning. The more we learn – the more we do (Man is a doing animal after all). The reverse is also true. The more we do – the more we learn.

Learn to learn.
