School of Life Short lessons

I've told people for a while that, for as clever as the School of Life short (minuscule, in fact) lessons are good food for thought, some of their presentations do get a few things wrong. Personally, I like most of what de Botton (et al.) talk about, but sometimes what he/they say(s) is worth discussing ...

This bloke is pretty merciless with them, but mine de rien, he makes some apte observations too.

I guess this is why I enjoy School of Life. Cultural Mining bringing a little added perception to my life generally...

Enjoy!

Much later... (I haven't been watching so many videos recently)

But as for this one, I wonder how much this advice applies to couples regardless of whether one gets married or not. Enjoy.

This is why we gently 'should' come back to the Initiate's programme. This is also why it is good for us to teach (so that we may learn). Find what is useful to you in whatever you wish to learn and explore and repeat it often. :)

Another video talking about the Problem with the SoL. Haven't fully watched it, but thought it might provide food for thought, :)
