Chanukah MiLashon Chinuch

I would be remiss if I didn't mention something about the fact that the Shoresh of the word Chanukah is Chinuch. 

What can we learn from this? Please let us know!

Quickly, I always thought about the fact that Chanukah means "dedication." Similarly, good Chinuch requires dedication. It is a process. It isn't something that happens overnight. Real Chinuch may not happen over eight nights, but I think the eight nights remind us of this process. Also, it is not enough for us to light the flames, we must ensure that they have enough fuel to last a certain amount of time.

I'm sure that there is much more to discuss. Please share!
