Elements is cool because
a) It's a different way of thinking. All other math has numbers in it. We think math we think numbers. Math and numbers are synonymous. Elements has no numbers. It's all straight edge and compass constructions. Of all the math you studied so far was there any of it which didn't have numbers in it?
b) The way it builds up knowledge from simple to complex starting from basic concepts deductively proving every step is transferable to other areas of life.
c) Many of the greatest mathematicians, philosophers etc for over two millennia read it and were influenced and inspired by it, Einstein, Newton, Hobbes etc.
