EDUCATION Vs. LITERACY

MY teacher set me to thinking when he said people have become literate but they could never be educated. i wondered for a long time when some daily sigtings cleared my doubts. spitting on the "don't spit here" sign would be a very small example. These are small things taught in school and it gradually decreases when we grow up n get in a college coz its expected of us to be matured enough to educate ourselves. but we dont differentiate btwn the two. Finally we manage to make us literates but dont manage to educate ourselves. Ain't it??
