Life is about LEARNING..
"The knowledge in the world is more vast than the bubbles of the 7 seas.."
I read this phrase when i read this book.. I have this book entitled "Essential Sufism" by Nick Fadigan if im not wrong. My frens gave me this book for my 19th birthday. Its quite cool..the sides of the pages are not cut by 'torn'..the pages are not even abd it's yellowed. Seems cool. The book is divided into chapters, each containing phrases regarding the theme of the chapter like God, love, teacher, student and etc.. It's not a story book or a book that preaches Islam but its a book of phrases, poems and anecdotes taken from the people who graced the past centuries..
However, reading this book may confuse some cause they talk of drinking wine and all.. sort of extreme sometimes if ur foundation is not stable..Just adopt an open mind and filter off those which u feel are wrong.
"Truth is greater than falsehood.
For those of true heart,
looking for the things of purest state,
sincere and innocent,
God will sieve the truth from the grey,
Cause truth is greater than falsehood."
Remember, always adopt an open mind. Guide yourself with the fundamentals you have learnt..
I read somewhere too..
"With fashion, go with the flow. With values, stand firm against the current"
(forgot this one came from who tho..)
Its hard to stand firm with values most of the time. Who will u really be if u float with the thoughts of others? Maybe next time i'll talk about 'The Art of War" by famed war strategist Sun Tzu. There is a lot to learn from his book too. Someday i'll share cos i need to re-cap. (Its been 2yrs since i last read the book.)
Time now..01:53am..i'm still working?? Haiz..13days to NDP. I'm holding on man..
