It is widely accepted that to live and learn is a creed of many centuries. Even in contemporary society,life-long learning still carries great importance to personal happiness.
To begin with, hardly can anyone achieve genuine success in his career without learning . As competition in all lines of work grows increasingly fierce, we must defeat our rivals through learning. Furthermore, according to a latest survey conducted by an authority on the Internet, 95 percent of people interviewed answered that individual happiness and success cannot exist without life-long learning. In addition, an increasing number of people come to realize the value of persistent learning. A case in point is those aged citizens having been retried from work , who seek to learning Chinese drawing, calligraphy and Peking drama, so that their life after retirement can be meaningful, full of colors.
Taking into account the analysis above, we can safely draw a conclusion that where there is leaning , there is life-long happiness.
