While some would want to enjoy their time, others would wallow in despair and some would drink the whole day.

...A Literary Analysis on Education as discussed by Jon Spayde According to the essay written by Spayde (1998), in the modern era education is considered as nothing but “training for competitiveness” (p. 65). It was further stated by him that education involves different meanings for different society and religion.
