The Scholar

sesungguhnya realiti itu tidak indah;

Growing up, education seems to be just another phase in life that we go through. 
We study just for exams, to get into a good college.
in college we study for credits so we can graduate and get a good job. 

then that's basically it. once you've sealed the deal there's marriage, etc.

So all the years of sitting in that classroom and listening and jotting down notes when sometimes we don't even end up in the field that we're studying. 



so why is this phase an important one?


i have no idea. 




This semester, i took a class on Bible studies. Babah was against it at first, and the Sensei even gave me fair warning that if i wasn't comfortable with my beliefs i should not take the class.


when i think about it again, to be the Khalifah on this earth and spread Islam as Allah has asked us to do, it should be important for us to know what other religions are saying. then having this closed barrier door, to my belief is only this and this. 




knowledge has always been a vital thing.
without it, who knows what would we be.
