Franos Baoon said "people are like wild plants and reading is to prune them. In my opinion, education is of the same function. Since wild plants are growing and changing all the time, if not for life-long education, people will inevitably stop making any progress and be trapped by ignorance.
But nowadays, it is commonly believed that education is only to go to school or colleges, or as a means to secure good jobs. Many people consider education as an approach to money, car house, and once they get these, they throw education away. This is a dangerous idea. Without further education, they can not make full use of their wealth, they can not enjoy their lives completely. It is said that "Be rich in moterial and poor in spirit". 
Education is motivating us lifelong, from the birth, when we know nothing about the world, to the aged, learned, perionced. Whenever we want to stop education, just think that your life will always stop at this moment, for life without progress is worthless, and have yourself prepared for the coming education.
