It can be economic independence, building social bridges, or just knowing that you are capable of doing something you want, such as finishing a course of studies, if you put your heart to it.<BR/><BR/>Bye!Adrihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13988545398304249399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009051391227721601.post-49360610116090754192008-09-08T16:11:00.000-07:002008-09-08T16:11:00.000-07:00Weird: I read your line - <I>Education makes me stronger because it enables me to build social bridges</I> - and I nod enthusiastically...<BR/><BR/>Meanwhile, in the background, I hear on TV they explain the "battle" between teens at a shopping centre in our city only yesterday... It was all due to "intolerance of diversity", they say... :-(( Sounds like educators have not been doing a good job so far, doesn't it?<BR/><BR/>Rather blue,<BR/><A HREF="http://www.pageflakes.com/gladysbaya" REL="nofollow"><I>Gladys</I></A>Gladys Bayahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10637060860005714720noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009051391227721601.post-68473350866402045532008-09-05T12:48:00.000-07:002008-09-05T12:48:00.000-07:00I´m glad my post gave you a different point of view to think about!<BR/>Love,<BR/>MiriamMiriam Rodriguezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00676707565418367810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6009051391227721601.post-53224179618546348932008-09-05T10:38:00.000-07:002008-09-05T10:38:00.000-07:00Hello Miri,<BR/><BR/>The point you've made is a very interesting one because when I read this act I connected this "make me stronger" with other things more personal but what you wrote made me think and I think you're completely right in that what we learn as teachers or students makes us stronger at a social level more than a personal one. In fact, I believe both go hand in hand, working together at the same time.<BR/><BR/>see you,<BR/><BR/>LuLu.G.http://www.blogger.com/profile/06007848107085461946noreply@blogger.com
