WHY do you even STUDY?

Why do we study?

For those of us who go to universities or schools, we know how it is. All the requirements we have to pass, the grades we need to get a certain mark for us to get honours (let alone pass), the routinised schedule of going to a certain class at a certain time with a certain professor and certain classmates - these constitute the school experience.

How do you feel about all this, though?

Beginnings...

I've always been a truth-seeker.

Ever since I can remember, I've questioned why things are the way that they are. I've always been interested in the reason people did things. Why some people have more than others; why there were certain behaviours that we had to adopt to be considered as civilised; why there is a notion of normal and abnormal; why we had to sleep every night; why we had dreams; why there are so many religions and teachings about what spiritual reality is; why there was birth, war, poverty, sickness, death, etc ; basically, WHY ALL THIS?
