The best education
doesn't come from any university
but from our own life-experience
forget the BA, MA or PhD-

the trials and tribulations
our every joy and misery
are the lifetime teachers
that forge wisdom and maturity-

dull and isolated is learning
ideas and words are too many in philosophy
how they confuse and confound
and rob us  relentlessly of our liberty

life has no known formula
that does happiness guarantee
our greatest triumph and glory
we celebrate in overcoming every adversity
