is said to be a powerful tool to obtain knowledge. It is said to be one of the

to improve one's vocabulary and gain certain knowledge. While some agree that

's understanding is obtained from our everyday

experiences

. Does it really matter how much comprehension we acquire from

experiences
Use synonyms
books
Use synonyms
. Before, I believed that
books
Use synonyms
contain lessons that we can impart in our own lives. There are some
books
Use synonyms
that offer us content which we can use in our day to day lives, and there are
books
Use synonyms
we can learn so much about. But
things
Use synonyms
we read from
books
Use synonyms
are sometimes not enough to argue our own perception of
life
Use synonyms
.
For instance
Linking Words
, I had read a
book
Use synonyms
about home-cooking, they tackled about the
things
Use synonyms
which people need to use or do when cooking, in order to have a perfect dish.
However
Linking Words
, as I experienced while cooking, not all the specific instructions or ingredients are needed to have a perfect outcome.
Moreover
Linking Words
, that
book
Use synonyms
only told the readers the
things
Use synonyms
that must be done. But how about if
things
Use synonyms
go wrong?. Sometimes
books
Use synonyms
do not actually tell us what to do if
things
Use synonyms
get wrong.
On the other hand
Linking Words
, matters that are being acquired through experience is different. Our
life
Use synonyms
experiences
Use synonyms
taught us how to troubleshoot
things
Use synonyms
that had gone wrong. In our everyday
life
Use synonyms
, we tend to learn different approaches to every kind of situation.
Consequently
Linking Words
, we people somehow know how to react in a certain situation because of the
things
Use synonyms
we learned from our past.
For example
Linking Words
, as I mentioned above, in cooking a dish if the food does not taste that great, we could fix the problem by asking others or remembering our previous experience with that dish. we could add ingredients specifically the
things
Use synonyms
that are not mentioned in the
book
Use synonyms
to make it delicious.
Furthermore
Linking Words
,
life
Use synonyms
experiences
Use synonyms
are important for individuals to grow because not all
books
Use synonyms
provide information in everything. In conclusion,
books
Use synonyms
are fundamental equipment in our learning. But our everyday hurdles and encounters are the main reasons for what we are today. A
book
Use synonyms
cannot be corrected or we sometimes need the effort to argue the
book
Use synonyms
. As for our daily encounters, our
experiences
Use synonyms
and how we meet the ends of everything is learned or gained from our daily struggles and success.
