Things They Don't teach You at School


They don't teach you how to love somebody
They don't teach you how to be famous
They don't teach you how to be rich, how to be poor.
They don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer
They don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind
They don't teach you What to say to someone who's dying
They don't teach you anything worth knowing
