　　my understanding of the true meaning of education

　　with the rapid development of society , almost everyone wants to be educated . howeve r , many people hold an erroneous view towards education . they think , probably most pa rents do , that through education , they will , or their childr en will , turn out to be either prominent schola rs or rich mer - chants . to them, education s uggests me rely fame or riches .

　　the aim of education , in my understanding , is set upon deeper and more impor tant mental accomplishments and moral cultur e . when we study at school or at the university , we a re cer tainly aiming at a profound learning of various subjects , for that is one of the essential things and a fundamental indispensable for building up our futur e car eer . equally impor tant is the moral education which we mu st r eceive eithe r at school or a t the university, for building our cha racter .

　　on the other hand , education does not simply mean “ going to school .”we cannot consider ourselves well-educated and supe rior just because we ar e the for tunat e ones who can go somewhe re to study , thus looking down upon those who cannot get such golden chances as ours . it is a t ruth univer sally known that that a doctor is dif ferent from a black smith is not because the forme r has r eceived higher education and the latt er has not .

　　to conclude my essay , i would like to quote an old saying“ lea rn whatever it may be, whenever you can , and whenever you will , ”and this , i thin k , is the t rue meaning of education .
