Knowledge is freedom

One thing I notice as a really big difference between humans and animals is the freedom we have which is all thanks to education. I don't man school, I mean information that leads to transformation.

Because of our own intelligence, we've been able to do some much that brings more meaning to our lives either than survival. Freedom which is true freedom means we being able to think for ourselves, make good or wise choices and understand the world which we live in.

Education makes us learn how to question the things around us. It makes us think clearly because the easiest person to fool is someone that is ignorant. It's too easy to exploit them. To stop people from taking advantage of you, you would need to be knowledgeable.

I watched a video on social media where a police officer tried to bully the wrong person, a professional lawyer who was so good at the work she does. Infact she knows the law more than most officers and had a camera recording. She proved with hr knowledge that the cop was wrong and the cop knew. If she didn't have that knowledge she would have been bullied.

We are mostly afraid of things we don't understand. More knowledge of it can take th fear out. For instance, if you're going into crypto investment knowing almost everything there is to know about crypto, your fear of taking risks diminishes.

We get education from so many places besides school. From life, family, friends, experiences, dating and work. All that helps us become better at solving problems, understanding others, relating with people and growing as a world or community.

The good news is that information is one of the most abundant things on earth that is not that had to get. Or you need is a phone and Internet and you're exposed to almost everything the world has to offer.
