A popular adage says ' life is a teacher the more you live the more you learn' I stand to be corrected also that life is not a teacher, life is a student...the life we live on earth is been recorded by LIFE making what is know as a life STORY, LIFE takes down the story of a person getting the recording the actions, knowledge and how the person lived....this story are then kept for posterity to take a look at... A practical example, a teacher has the knowledge to the student then the student writes down what is been taught so he can use for future purpose....LIFE don't teach, humans teaches LIFE, then life take notes of it like the student so HE can show or make use of it... If a man lived a reckless and worthless life, LIFE picks up the story of the man which is the LIFE STORY not LIFE'S STORY because life does not have a story to tell...life writes the story of the man so HE can show to posterity and posterity would be cautious of that kind of life.... So the MAN in question is the primary teacher because he gave LIFE the idea on how the world looks like and LIFE learnt from it showing posterity not to make the same mistake made by the man.... So LIFE is a primary student and posterity is the secondary student...so everything we learn today were not taught by LIFE but were recorded life because someone taught LIFE and it is mandatory for LIFE to pass it on....
