  1. Okay, Cesar Chavez could be right, or he could be wrong.

    Depends on what most people get an educaiton for, doesn't it?

    Donald Trump may say:  The end of all education is to learn the skills to get rich.  But, what purpose is money?  

    Are we human, just because we want to help ourselves and be greedy?

    Some would say yes, and Amen to that.  But where is the highest good, for the most people?  Taking care of ourself, first, or serving others?   Serving others takes time and energy away from number One, right?

    How did you get your education, in the first place?  Teach yourself?  Or did others teach you, starting with your parents, your peers, and underpaid teachers.

    Why should anyone be a teacher, except to serve others.

    And, once you get an education, why not repay the debt to others.

    IMO, Chavez is not the first person to recognize that serving higher values of society is better than surrendering to the lowest ones.  

    The Golden Rule also says: " Do onto others, as you'd have them do unto you."  And the "greatest commandment" according to Jesus of Nazareth, was:  Love your neighbor as yourself.  And what is love, if not service and self-sacrifice for the benefit of others most close to you?


  2. By means of  learning at home, school, works, personal experience should be share and serve to others, sharing our blessings that will make a real fulfilment and a job well done.

  3. To put to use what you have learned to teach others your skills.
