Have you ever come across an idea and thought "wow, that makes so much sense"? If you can't recollect, almost certainly you've felt this subconsciously.
So, when we think about something and say "it's plain and clear," how many of us truly reflect on the baggage that helps entertain such clarity in thought? Meaning, [...]

複雑。。。

えと。。。普通にただ、英語を使って書く事になれた。それなのに、今日、ちょっと感想と気持ちを話したい。すごい気になった事があるからね。それは、今まで勉強して時々がんばってハーバード大学に入学があって「どうかな」と思うようになった。その理由はだんだん人生が動き始めたから。つまり、人生が動いたらまだ今日に戻れない。さきもっと勉強しなきゃ、でも、したい。。。と思う。仕事と大学の事じゃないと思う。人生ってすべて決めるとか決めないとかどっちでも動く。決めたい、自分自身で決めたいと思うからまだ全部決めなくてちょっと緊張している、混乱してない。将来って分かった。でも、人生は、自ら動く、動かされる？決めるほど決めたい、けれど、決めなければ決めされる。まだ、はっきり説明しなかった、すまん。でも、聞いてくれてありがとう。
أنا أسف. ما أردت أن أتكلام عن هذا الموضوع باللإنجليزية لكن ينبغي عليّ أن أقوله و كتبتُه بالغة التي لن يفهمها أكثر الناس. فمع السلام
English will return tomorrow…

Do we restrain ourselves from inflicting harm on others because we fear the consequence of jail (i.e. – removal from our current life and placement in confinement or worse)? Do we try to enjoin good, so that the boss might give us a raise or even a promotion? Do we restrain ourselves from [...]

Japanese Speech Presentation 2006
Well, I'm kind of tied up, but I wanted to leave some food for thought. For those who do not know classical Arabic (this includes many Arabs), when memorizing the Qur'an there is no natural and concurrent comprehension of meaning. Those, like myself, who memorized parts of the Qur'an as [...]
混乱していたら ~ When you’re confused…?

Well, it looks like I'm getting my 15 minutes of fame from Haseeb's famous blog. Well, as with all fame, people will forget me in no time. Hah! Anyhow, what does it mean to forget? How about when we're confused, do we want to forget everything? (A cheap segway into what we do when we're [...]
The future?
Posted in Reflections on 2006/04/04 | 6 Comments »
What do most people think of when the word future is mentioned? I'm not everyone, but I would venture it involves 'the work to be done later'. There are people, especially the Islam-minded Muslims, who would consider the future a time when things must be done. Islam aside, for people in general, [...]
Repentance…
Posted in Reflections on 2006/04/01 | 2 Comments »
Well, today's topic seems a bit vague, not that the earlier ones were not. However, the notion of repentance arises on many levels. On the most tangible level, we might call repentance a means towards reparative reconciliation. Thus, repentance may be understood in terms of simple debt. If you owe something [...]
