School presents itself differently from life. The lessons taught in school are not the same as the lessons taught by life. The methods by which school presents it’s lessons are very different from that of life. In school, the lessons are presented before the exams. In life, the exams come before the lessons. The fact that one learns the same lessons in school with others doesn’t mean one will still learn the same lessons with others in life. It is simply never so. In school, a group of students will have the same timetable but in life, they will have different timetables.
This is insane!

After school with a particular group of people, some will travel, some will pursue their dreams in different ways and fields, some will marry early, some will marry late, some will die before marriage and some will never marry at all. Some of those who will never marry might have children anyway.
In life, if you don’t know where you are going, any road can take you there.
Socrates, regarded as the greatest philosopher to have lived, said, “man, know thyself”. Aristotle, another great philosopher, said, “knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom”.

Oh, yes please!
Comparing oneself to others in life is not a prudent thing to do at all. Even two brothers will never live the same life. A younger sister might marry before the elder sister.
School is school, life is life. The two have very distinct characteristics.
One will always fail and miss the way in life as long as one continues to copy other’s life exam papers.
