Right To Education

When does a right to education become and enforced prison.

The right to education was designed that someone that with no opportunity to learn before be able to learn, but for those of us that have access to education we do not have the right to not learn, as its now enforced that from an early age to teenage you can not leave the education system.

But a right is the legal or moral entitlement, an option a choice something that children have been denied as they have no right to not learn, they also are not able to set what they learn.

So as adults are we not destroying what it is to be a child to have freedom to learn what you have an interest in.

In away as adults we are not repressing our kids and forcing them to work... if we think about this is it any less cruel than making them work in sweat shop? think about it for 8 hours a day we force them to attend and in the evening we give them home work... at least in the sweat shop once you leave you are free to rest.

And then there is the social pressure that if you don't get good marks you will never be given a good job, so at an early age we start to place stress on them, and after all this people question why teenage suicide rate is on the rise.

This right to education is no longer a right it has become a prison for children, that for some has become a death row.

I most likely sound extreme but its not till you look at it this way that you will take any notice, because it is all to easy for us to blame it on something or someone else for the children's problems.

Maybe we should give them the right back.

Stress or challenge

We all no that we don't like stress but sometimes it not what is put on us but how we deal with it.

Keep a level head... don't worry about things that you can't change, just deal with it the best you can.
Like when your flight gets delayed as an example and you know your going to miss that business meeting... don't stress it not your fault take a deep breath and say to yourself plan B phone ahead explain the problem calmly and ask them if you can reschedule, after all it is beyond your control.

When someone say it can not be done in a project! do you go oh sugar or do you use that's the opening for a challenge not a problem, there is always away the key is to keep this in mind and keep trying.

If your stress in life comes from one person like your manager remind him that there are rules of business conduct, do not be intimidated by them I know its harder than it sounds because you worry about losing your job but losing your mind is far worse and remember one thing you are better than these people.

Approach problems as a challenge and care about your mental health and you'll be happier than you can imagine, your new relaxed nature will attract people and jobs to you like you never could have imagined.

Green Eyed Monster

Is jealousy bad? Well in truth no it’s not its how you act on it that makes it bad, jealousy is there to make you notice that you care… and if you care then maybe you can find a positive way to handle it.

Honest friend

If you want an honest friend pick a child, however remember they see things in simple ways, but despite this sometimes the best way to see things is in a simple way.

In their simple way they can be quite upsetting but they tell it as it is.

Unspoken promise

The unspoken promise of a kiss or smile it seems to say so much yet is say nothing at all.

A smile can tell you someone is happy or that someone loves you how this simple action can be so many things and have so many meanings I can not tell you but I know how people look at one another and it’s an amazing thing sometimes.
