One of my patients, a successful businessman, tells me that before he fell ill he wasn't happy. Happiness was "having the cookie". Only if you had the cookie could things be good.

Unluckily, the cookie kept changing. Some of the time it was money, sometimes power, sometimes fancy things.

A year and a half after his diagnosis(诊断) of cancer, he sits in my office shaking his head. "It's like I stopped learning how to live after I was a kid. When I give my son a cookie, he is happy. If I take the cookie away or it breaks, he is unhappy. But he is 2 years old and I am 43. It has taken me this long to understand that the cookie will never make me happy for long," he says, "The minute you have the cookie, you start to worry about someone trying to take it away from you."

My patient laughs and says cancer has changed him. For the first time he is happy. No matter if his business is doing well or not, no matter if he wins or loses at golf. "Two years ago, cancer asked me, 'What is really important?' Well, life is important—life with the cookie, life without the cookie. Happiness doesn't have anything to do with the cookie; it has something to do with being alive," he pauses thoughtfully, "I guess life is the cookie."

It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better jobs.In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don't.It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs.But this isn't accepted by all people.

Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life getting education only for a way of living.This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education.In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don't need to spend so much time in school.People can get education for a living in a short time.Subjects like History and Geography need not be taught to everyone.Even Language and Mathematics need not be taught in detail, either.Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.

Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man.It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities.After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of human.Education is to make a man lead a better life.
