The more we age, the more we get to learn about life. Each people learn things about life from plenty of events and relationship with people. Among them, advices from friends and family is such an indispensable source for everyone since those not only can give them a lesson but also chances to grasp about life. But there're people believing that advice from friends and family is the best way to learn about life. This believe is mistaken since advice from family and friends is indirect and can't teach everything in life.
To begin with, obtaining advices from an aquantance is indirect. Even if is gives variety of lessons to people, they don't get to experience what real things are like. This can have them embarrased and dissapointed when they face real situations. For example, as people grow, they start to learn about baby sitting since they will have a baby after they get married. They get taught from the embryo to how to deal with situation when baby doesn't stop crying. Not only that, people are likely to have advices from friends who already got a baby and farmily, especially parents who nurture them. But they really don't get to learn how to deal with every situation since they usually tend to be embarassed and forget ways to resolve problems when they face them. This shows advices from family and friends doesn't teach everything about life.
On the contrary, Learning by experiencing in real life offers much more practical and useful lessons of life to people. Most people undergo so many difficulties such as traffic accident, failing on company entrance tests, etc. And it's the best way to learn about life because people will never forget about the event they went through since they experienced in real, not by hearing from others. So next time they meet obstacle, they won't be confused as much as last time. For instance, people usually hear things such as the importance of life. Though it is the most significant factor to concern everyday, people tend to look after this. But according to experiences of people who had a dangerous moment, they learned and felt how priceless their life is. This strongly support that real experience is the best method of learning about life.
As I mentioned above, listening advices from family and friends is not the best way to learn about life since it's limited in many fiends and it can't teach everything in life. In contrast, going through real life situations gives wide range of lessons about life to human. Because people never forget about things happened in their lives. So experiencing in real events should be considered as the best method to learn about life. |
