Do you mean "the experience" of being schooled?

I would agree that negative experiences can teach us, but I would much rather learn positively.

Won't go in too many details as to my whole life story :p But yes, mostly the experience of the schooling itself, together with many other factors, has eventually led me to great insights. Of course I would rather learn and experience in a positive matter as well. But then again, if that were the case, I would be a completly different person right now..
