Education and wealth can lead a person to paths of social and economic progress, but their true purpose should not be limited to material success alone. If a person acquires worldly knowledge and accumulates wealth but is devoid of moral values and humanity, then their success is incomplete.

The lesson of humanity teaches us that the benefit of our knowledge and resources should not be limited to ourselves, but should also be a source of good for others. The true purpose of education is not just to enhance intellectual abilities but also to broaden the heart. The most meaningful education is that which teaches us to understand the pain and suffering of others and to treat the people around us with justice, compassion, and love.

Without humanity, an educated person can become so consumed by selfishness that they ignore the hardships and needs of others. On the other hand, if a person is full of humanity, even if they lack wealth or higher education, they become a valuable asset to society.

Therefore, while education and wealth have their importance, it is humanity that is the fundamental value that makes us truly human and gives purpose and meaning to our achievements.
