Hi, my name is James, James Robert. Am a child that thinks all he wants in this world is education and with no doubt this thought has made me to be a brilliant student. As a matter of fact, in my class of fifty students, I have come out on top not once, not twice, but all the time.

Although, my school is a little out classed, see for yourself, we still use the chalkboard and dusters, even our desk is an old fashion furniture, I still find pride in my school, because they've brought me to where I am today. I have always been the type that Ignores my classmates, whenever they want me to play with them, because as you know, I only think of how to get more knowledge, it's what my parents have always told me.

Being that am their only child and the least they would do is allow me to go outside, my parents have nurtured me to be a sadist on the negative side and a well educated boy on the positive side. Until I graduated from high school, I lived with this orientation.

I finally got admission to Cambridge University after lots of hard work passing my exams. I was really shocked at what I felt, when I meant and touched a girl (or should I say a lady), who held me by my hands and helped me find a sit. From this moment, everything changed for me and I realized the true fact of emotions. This is how I meant my Soul mate.

I was still in the University, when I started to generate feelings for someone, my mind was so clouded and surprised of emotions, that I could no longer concentrate in my studies. Due to my lack of concentration, I failed my 2nd semester.

My parents had to come to the University, provoked to hear that I failed. When they came I introduced them to Ella, my girl friend. They were so shocked and began to feel guilty of not giving me a more index knowledge of emotions. My Parents then sat me and Ella down and finally talked to me about feelings and emotions.

So what do you think, isn't it too late to talk about emotions? , please Parents, learn to balance emotions and education, when advising your children.

Wow, this is so nice, most parents never care to talk about emotions to there wards, all the talk about is success in their education.

Nice write up @justin.ahama.

Now, that's a lesson filled story
Giving education is awesome but giving both education and emotional support to a child is more than awesome to get the child walking on the right path continuously.

Nice story you have here 👍

Emotions flow naturally and we should not repress them. Many times we ignore them in order to achieve objectives and when we become aware of them it may be a little late.
