AMERICANS NEED FORMAL EDUCATION FROM HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS IF WE INTEND TO COMPLETE IN THE GLOBAL FOREFRONT IN TODAYS DAY AND AGE. OTHER COUNTRIES ARE PRESSING THE ISSUE OF EDUCATION AND THEY ARE NOT TAKING IT LIGHTLY, IF EVER THERE WAS A TIME TO STICK YOUR HEAD IN A BOOK THAT TIME IS NOW. I have seen death, i have seen sadness, i have seen happiness, i have been sick, i have been weak, i have been strong, i have lost faith, i have gained trust, i know what it is to doubt and i know what it is to grow up. Never judge a person by his age. You have no idea about others life experience, my life is ever changing and i have experienced a whole lot so far. It really ticks me off that some of you guys have a problem respecting young adults. I don't let anyone no matter how old treat me like im some kid with no life experience. In my experience not many adults like you have had the joy of meeting someone like me with enough guts to stand up for myself, my OWN beliefs based upon my OWN experiences, and enough brute to knock some sorry son of a gun life experience know it all off his feet
See now I understand that you are a young adult, because I am not very much older than you. Something you will learn in the next few years, because trust me the difference in maturity from 20 to 23 is crazy. At least I have done a lot of growing in these last three years. Anyway something you need to learn is yes you do have an opinion and you are 20 years old so your an adult and your entitled to it, but buddy you also need to learn when to just be quite and listen to people with more age and experience under their belt. The only reason I am saying this to you is I was also a "strong willed" 20 year old man who had seen many things that most grown men never will, but if I would have just sat back and listened I would have not had to learn so many things the hard way. Coming from someone only a few years older than you, you just need to listen. You would be surprised how far that will take you!!
And this is not BigNoseKate.
I take all this in good health. I also am a very good listener. I also prefer to listen rather then speak as i understand i know relatively little considering the wealth of knowledge the real world has to offer. At the same time you have to understand im not attacking or responding to anyone who replied to the initial post respectfully. I went of on a rage when the next five posts after mine said nothing about the topic and just undermined my views and opinions quite blatantly. Older people have a hard time admitting fault in my opinion. Some people here are about as mature ,educated and respectful as a 7 year old boy from the city. How you gunna act all childish, crack unnecessary comments and in the next breath try to act dignified and well experienced. You choose not to share your opinions but rather share your opinion about my opinion with each other. I came to this site with a respect that not many of you have lived up to. The wealth of knowledge i found here before joining had me in awe only to find out that a majority of this boards members are judgmental, and lack simply etiquette.
