The most important lessons in life, are learned in school.
Do you agree or disagree with this statement.

Schools are a very important part of our education, because of the knowledge that we can gain from the studies done there. However, experience is a stronger opponent when it comes to lessons learned in life. We learn from our mistakes, and not from books. They don't tells us the steps to take in order for us not to make mistakes, or how to learn the lessons of life depending on different kinds of situations.

Books teaches us many things that we'll be able to use later in life. Schools are and will always be a crucial part of every persons life. Education is important for our development, but they do not teach us the lesson that we need either. They do not tell us how to deal with a painful situation. For instance, when a family member dies, and you are left with all the unanswered questions, and the emotional pain that comes with it. Does school prepares you for what's coming next? Do you know how to deal with the pain and suffering? The answer will most likely be not, because all these experiences make us who we are today. They either make us stronger, or weaker.

No one will ever learn from the mistakes of others, we need to make our own error, and experience them ourselves in order to endure, and learn a lesson. When our parents tells us not to go through that path, because you may fall we will do it anyway. We don't learn from their blunders, but rather we make our own in order to learn the lessons that life will teach us. There are many kinds of lessons that we learn in life. There are those ones that helps us be a better person, and those one that makes us a different person. Pain is a part of life, like it or not it will always be. We learn through pain and suffering. For example, when you get sick, you realize what you have done with your life, either you are happy with the way you have lived it, or you realize that your life has been waisted. That you were so busy getting angry with family for silly reason, instead of enjoying each and every single day like your last.

In conclusion, lessons are learned through our own failures and experiences. Sometimes we learn them to late, and other we have enough time to look back and learn from them. I have learned many lessons throughout my life. First I have realized that as a consequence of them I'm a stronger person. They have not been a very pleasant ones, but I'm who I'm today because of them. I did not learn them in school, or in a book, I lived it myself and that's how I can say with complete certainty that lessons in life are learn through personal experiences.

There're two kinds of life: personal life and professional life. What we learn at school is to enrich our mind to face a world where everyone is obligated to work. The school prepare us to work. But the most important, our life is prepared at home, with our parents and brothers. They love you and they always want to see you with good aspect, that's because they help you in situations that you need. In all moments. A Family shows us the kind of life that we have to take, they show us the way to happiness by respecting the world we live. The family is the a better school.

I agree with you Tomasito, by the way, there are many with your name in my country :)
Family helps us become who we are today, they build the foundation we need for our lives in order for us to build the rest of it.
But also we mature by our experiences, we learn lessons in life because of mistakes we make, or for not doing something.
For example, When our parents tell us not to go to our friends house, but we do it anyway without their permission, when we get back home most likely, we will get punished. By being punished, we learn the lesson of before you go somewhere you need to ask your parents. That is a lesson learned. The books at school don't tell us if you go to your friends house without telling your parents, you will get punished. These is what i mean in the essay.

When I gave myself this name, tomaSito, I didn't imaginate that there are many others around the world. I thought this is a single name. Tomasito is formed by my name plus "ito" lol. You have everything you need to write a book, Yamilet! 8)
