how to write, read, or comprehend the English language, and even when they have guns,
they have no idea how to use weapons.

In my opinion, the experience of the Blind Soldiers before and after the war will be easier if they have

English language. They may not be called blind soldiers if they have been educated and they will not
have difficulty in training and communicating.

Most of us have been taught the value of education since we were children. You may have
believed it was a waste of time or something you had to do in order to acquire a job during your tireless

Education brings firmness in life, which no one can ever take away from you. Being well-educated and
obtaining a college degree increases your chances of landing a better job and opening new avenues for
yourself. Education must be the starting point for the entire globe to truly become equal. If everyone
had equal access to education, there would be fewer disparities between social classes. Everyone, not
only the wealthy, would have an equal opportunity to advance in their careers. In today's society,
having excellent education is regarded essential for social acceptance. An education is thought to make
you a more productive member of society, as well as making you feel like a contributing member.

A well-educated society is essential for economic success. We need people to keep learning and
researching in order to stay inventive. Countries with higher literacy rates are likewise more likely to
