No one has the exact knowledge of the feelings of meeting death until his life really comes to its end, and this is the very thing he learns at the end of a learning process C life.
Most people become aware of the term "education" when they enter kindergartens and later on schools and colleges. There they learn to read, to write and to think. This they call education, or school education. 
But what happened before their school days? Parents taught them to suck, to eat, to talk and to walk. Parents acted as the most patient teachers and humans came into being in this educational process.
There is little dispute that schools days are certain kind of education. And there's also a saying that people learn most of their skills in their work experiences.
Teachers often say that a classroom is a place for mutual study. Students learn from the teacher, and it is also true the other way round C teachers also learn something from the students. So is this applied in other trades. Famers always have a growing knowledge about crops and the earth itself; a soldier will grow into a veteran and an expert in military affairs at last  . These people are all learning something in their life experience, whatever they are aware of it or not.
The debate goes that whether people learn to live or live to learn. According to most people's experiences, they live to learn. Education is a lifelong process. Education is important, first of all, for us to learn to behave as a human being, then to learn the skills to earn a living, and at last to furnish ourselves and full appreciate the world we are living in.
Life is a journey of learning. Anyone trying to avoid learning is as na?ve as one who seeks physical immortality by pure will, for one is informed and experienced in every daily incident. Since life is a learning process, try to be an active learner, and by doing that one will live better.
