Education. Communicating One’s Self
A contribution to the event encouraged by Pope Francis: “Reconstructing the Global Compact on Education”Pages: 94
Education is transmitting the meaning of life; it is not a word, it is an experience.
The problem of education, first and foremost, concerns us adults, because the opportunity that our young people may have of encountering a path for their journey depends on us. This is because a human journey is not a mere collection of discourses and words, of instructions for use, it is a life which is communicated with the support of adequate reasons.
Those who educate are not those who make propaganda, but those who are committed to rousing something in a young person, to setting freedom in motion.
