Life is the best teacher

Life is the best teacher, provided, one should be a good student.

Today in the era of information and technology, people are more confident on the information than on the practical experience. The lack of integrity always doubt the surety of the possible outcome. We are more dependent on the maps which shows the roads and bridges but misses the uneven patches and the speed breakers.

One day on a dense foggy day, I was traveling in a public transport. The driver was at his average normal speed, which was looking very high that day, but was safe. I asked him, " How could you drive so good in these days even?"

He replied, " Sir ! I am driving it for last thirty years. All the road, lights, speed breakers and different stoppages are even known to my hands and feet also."

This is what a life can teach, not the theories.
