PRESIDE TS NIESSAGE Education is the continuous process of integrating experiences. Environment has much influence on the outcome, but too often we overlook the fact that each of us can choose our environment. Moreover, too little thought is given to planning a pattern as a framework upon which to build a satisfying and complete personality. We are living in the atomic age of technology but in little better than the Stone Age of spir- ituality. There seems to be a tendency to plan all our experiences around a vocational objective forgetting or failing to recognize that vocation is only one phase of living. Many schemes for complete living have been proposed and have attracted the attention of thoughtful minds. lt is our responsibility to select one early in life being sure, however, that important parts have not been omitted. A distinguished philosopher from a great university once proposed three cate- gories: You and Yourself, You and Society, You and the World. This was not sullicient to sustain him in a great emergency as a knowledge of his life will reveal. Common today is a scheme proposing four categories all of which are profound and satis- fying: Consciousness of personal needs and adjustmentsg proper home and family understand- ing and relationshipsg social and civic consciousness, and vocational efliciency. lf you choose this or any other scheme around which to integrate your experiences and build your personality-and you must have some complete plan-be sure that you include the most important factor in this life, the one too often omitted but the one that will sustain you in any ' emergency, and that is your rela- tion to God.
