" Education paves way for future financial security. By education I mean knowledge of subject matter not just marks" - 
Rama Balasubramanian
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I was in teens
Father lost his job
Tough times for family
We had an ailing, bedridden grandmother

While father searched for job
Mother told me
You concentrate on your studies
You are my only hope for future 
I want you to earn well

Finished schooling with good marks 
Topped school, wanted to become doctor 
We didn't have money 

Took commerce stream 
Did CA along with graduation 
Would get up early and leave home 
First college then CA firm 
Come back home late at night 

All free time dedicated to education 
Was university topper
Rank holder in CA
Job offers came on their own. 

When I gave my first salary to my mother she shed tears of joy.
Finally our family problems came to an end. 
My hard work bore fruit 

Now I am holding a top position in big company
I have house of my own and enough money

I tell my son education is important
Material processions are transient
Knowledge stays forever.

When I see college students not studying
I feel sorry for them
They don't realise the value of education

Education is essential for living
Education should be free for all.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Knowledge makes you humble 
With knowledge you rarely stumble
Knowledge makes you aware
With knowledge you know what to beware
Knowledge earns you respect
With knowledge many things you don't expect
Knowledge gives you confidence
With knowledge you aren't over confident
Knowledge makes you mature
With knowledge your future is secure

He who knows the most
Will never ever boast
He knows knowledge is vast
Very little he has amassed

Everything else may not stay
Knowledge in mind forever stays.
