Why study?

NafisaSB

As we continue studying, we accumulate knowledge

Through teacher and professors in school and in college

And the more that we study, the more do we know

The more does our horizon or knowledge grow

But the more that we learn, the more we forget

Though we do worry, do fume and do fret

And the more we forget, the less we do know

The less do we, in our mind store.

Yet, the less we know, the less we forget

The less do we, from our minds, let

And the less we forget, the more we do know

The higher does the tree of true knowledge grow

Is such is the case, why should one study

Why not just sit back, and enjoy with a buddy

    Good one dear friend…truly understand…i too always forget…as if all goes in some kind of abyss…cause when i draw my hands to fetch I don’t remember anything to write on that sheet of mine…

      i know that feeling - and it intensifies with the passing years. the only solution is to keep the mind occupied always.
