The roots of education are bitter but the fruit is sweet - Aristotle

Every one of us experience a lot of hardships in our journey. Many people will agree to me when I say that entering a school is a PRESSURE. Yes the process are really hard, but always remember that nothing in this world is easy to achieve it should be accompanied with patience so that you will taste the sweetness of life. When we enter our school it seems like you are in the game you will not know if you win or lose, if you fail or you will succeed.

Attending school and receiving an education is necessary if we want to achieve success. First you need to learn how to read, memorizing alphabets, numbers and when you remember your childhood days you will consider it a hard part of your life, where children start taking their studies as a burden and start feeling bitter with them. I remember when I was in elementary my mom always routine is that every weekend I need to read and practice how to pronounce those words in the paper she photocopied, and of course those words in my mind is something like “Oh here we go again, read, read,read. Get tired of reading”. But I am thankful of what my Mom did to me because I always belong to the honor student in our class during my elementary days and even in my high school days and there are times that I am the representative of our school to compete in an essay contest that was when I was in Grade 6 and with that with all the hardships that I experience, the result is very sweet, I taste the sweetness! Yes we undergo a lot of process especially in our schooling you need to give a super extra effort in our education. Education has always been a bitter experience for most of the students that every day you need to prepare yourself, woke up early to go to school, every time you sleep you need to finish your projects, requirements, and assignments. You need to review your notes for the test and quizzes. Before you wake up in the morning and before you sleep at night it’s a PROBLEM. We can say that school sucks, brutal, etc.

Success goes hand in hand with quality of life. The more successful someone is, the higher quality of life we would expect that person to have. Education can be a burden but most of us if you finish your education it will surely benefit your future. When I think of the word “SUCCESS” it makes me think of my education. Education and learning are some of the most important processes in today’s society. It’s very true that the root of education is bitter but its fruit is sweet. The roots of education actually going to school, studying lots of subjects that are very hard, making your grades great, you always give your best are bitter and tiring. The fruits are sweet meaning that your education will take you to the right path. Education is a gift. With this, education is a very important and it will help you wherever you go.  It will serve as your weapon. It will make you the best out of you if you use the right way.  No matter how hard and boring learning that you experience in the end it's all been worth it and you will be able to enjoy all the benefits. Having a good job, happy family, nice house, lots of money, nice car, you can produce whatever you want, you can travel where ever you want and you can help anyone, and that is success! Yes, the root of education is bitter but its fruit is sweet, and for me the fruit is not only sweet but it is very delicious.
