In the end, no matter how many words we use, what really educates us is the experience of life. The best way to learn is by being forced to act and experience.

"Tell me and I forget.
Teach me and I remember.
Involve me and I learn."
– Benjamin Franklin
--
It is life experience
what teaches us the most,
because words can help
but actions mark us.
We can repeat something
a thousand times...
but it is not until
we are really forced to learn
and take action
that we finally learn.
It is not enough to have knowledge,
you also have to learn,
and no matter how much we remember,
it is not always the same thing.
I learn by what I do,
I wish I was one of those
who could really learn
just by listening or reading,
but I must admit
that when I learn the most
is when I get down to work.
