After reading "What is Education For?" by David Orr, I really thought about what we do daily to educate ourselves and others in our lives. The article defines education as teaching people how to think. I felt that we all do this each and every day, whether we are conscious of it or not. I thought to myself that if we all consciously took the time to teach someone, whether it be someone we knew and loved, or a complete stranger, something new each day the world could be a much better place. If everyone across the world took the time to share their knowledge and wisdom with a new person, the possibilities for education could be infinite.
