I Believe in Learning to Change a Tire
Specifically, I am writing that every person should know how to change a tire. I am going to tell a story about how two other girls and I got stuck with a slashed tire on the way to Norwood and we had to change the tire ourselves because there was no cell phone service to call anyone. One of the girl's fathers had recently taught her how to change a tire, and if it wasn't for her, we would have been stuck for a while, because no one stopped to help us. In a broader sense, I am saying that pracitcal knowledge is more important than textbook information. Practical knowledge, in most situations, benefits you more than a fact on the Civil War. Changing a tire is something every person should know how to do, because most likely, you will be in that situation one day.

ReplyDeleteGirls can do it too! It's a very practical topic and definitely a true statement. I like how you use the tire example for a deeper meaning of practical knowledge.
