Can you help me with my homework?

Gramps,
Hey, do you do homework? ‘cause I’m failing every class and I need some assignments to be
done fast!! Can you help me out?
Fanana, from Cali

Dear Fanana,
If I were to help you with your home work, it would be a big disservice to you. I don’t really want to contribute to your ignorance, as there is an over-abundant supply of that already! Take a look at your priorities. I imagine you will find that homework falls pretty far down on the list. If you could expand your vision a bit to see down the road a ways, you would find that our society today is built on technical knowledge. If you don’t know something specific about some field of labor, you will be laboring in the fields–at a sub-subsistent wage. Plan for your future; that’s where you are going, and you fabricate it as you go along. So, get your homework done. If the deadline has passed and you get a failing grade, do that homework anyway–not for the grade this time, but for the knowledge that you will acquire. The search for and the acquisition of knowledge is among the noblest pursuits of mankind.
