You must have been to your college and school, which no doubt makes us remember our best moments with classmates, teachers, and principal.
It might be bizarre, but these administrative people in our schools and colleges have helped us understand and motivated us to live in a better way. They might have given you hope and to trust the school authorities.
Teachers have helped with the content of education, while the school's principal has helped to promote the values of life and lead a successful life.
As small kids, one has their ideal; similarly, you might even have your school principal as your idol or even might be the school teacher. You might look up reasons to continue with change or lead a prosperous life.
The same way education, teachers, and principal heads have contributed their way.
You may have felt fear in your teenage when engaging in different activities.
But this is not similar for all the people around the world to experience the same educational values. Some would have been interested in life outside school, but a few of you might have been learning through the trust of these few administrative people and your parent's guidance and ethics.
As in a church, you go to learn through the way of God and the Bible; similarly, in school, you have a different world to learn through education.
You follow principles and ethics either through the way of God or the education system to follow societal norms.
It is being said that you cannot make one lead a prosperous afterlife until you are on the path of leading a good life. Whether it be school authorities such as principals or the real-life principal you have to follow, all end up with the same conclusion point to become successful.
A few principal quotes have been compiled about the principal you follow throughout your life and the college head or principal who might have served the role of an idol in your life.
