An interesting thought came to mind in the past few days:
Education has little to do with our open mindedness, curiosity, imagination, etc. A sense of culture and refinement stems from one's interest in one's world around us, in our attention to detail, we learn how to appreciate a variety of things in life. This sense of child-like wonder is something that education can neither create nor destroy. A sense of life long learning is something one can certainly cultivate in multiple areas, thereby becoming a more well rounded individual. :) This quality is something we need to develop on our own, no amount of education can give us this.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if we went to school and just learnt to be curious individuals, thinkers in our own right? :)
I totally agree Mayuri, The refinement of everyone's lives depends on the exposure or the interaction the person does with the outside world
