Push – pull

A children’s desk as a stage for a comical family drama. The learning process seems more like a modern version of the inquisition, full of yelling, shouting, open threats, velvety promises, bribery in the form of presents or video games, theatrical gestures, memorable speeches, emotional reconciliations, and dramatic exits from the stage. Each grade is a question of life or death. Who will be the first to give in, and who will snap – the loving parents or their selfish child? Who will be the first to curse the author of the curriculum? Who will learn all of those unnecessary pieces of information by heart? Who will learn to sing a song at midnight for the exam the next day and who will answer the question “What did the author want to express with this work?” These are all terrible questions, and a man is just a tiny piece of dust, fragile and weak. However, the essential part of human nature is not to give in. So let’s move on, keep on keeping on, the future must be better. Let us fight for knowledge like a samurai or a kamikaze, for as long as we breathe.
