There may be some mistakes of expression,thanks for anybody who help me correct the mistakes.
Good morning/afternoon.
How is your day? I’m feeling quite well.
I guess everybody here is or was a student, right? And most of you have asked yourself a question: Why do we go to school? Did you? I did.
Not everybody wants to go school. But we still do. It is basically because we need a job. We’re not saint. The reality is that we actually don’t like to study the knowledge in textbooks.
But everybody wants a degree, so parents send their kids to a good high school and only consider degrees as the guarantee of future happiness. And the consequence is that many highly talented students think themselves as a failure. School kills creativity because you don’t need much creativity to get into a good college.
What is strange is that we don’t normally think kids can become artists. Well, Picasso once said that all children are born artists.
But people think art is expensive. Parents tell their kids not to do art because it cost so much and you may not even be an artist. They ask us to go to a good college, to become a doctor or a pilot. So does the society. It seems like everywhere on earth at the top are mathematics and languages while the bottom are the arts. We sacrifice arts for the life that most parents want their kids to have.
