my wonderwall
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen and it's
Supposed to happen that we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time
When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
It's the faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time
I received a sharing. I think it's only right to share it further to benefit more.
Knowledge Vs Wealth
Ali (RA) was once asked what was better: wealth or knowledge. He said, Knowledge is superior to wealth for ten reasons:
(1) Knowledge is the legacy of the prophets. Wealth is the inheritance of the Pharaohs. Therefore, knowledge is better than wealth.
(2) You have to guard your wealth but knowledge guards you. So knowledge is better.
(3) A man of wealth has many enemies while a man of knowledge has many friends. Hence knowledge is better.
(4) Knowledge is better because it increases with distribution, while wealth decreases by that act.
(5) Knowledge is better because a learned man is apt to be generous while a wealthy person is apt to be miserly.
(6) Knowledge is better because it cannot be stolen while wealth can be stolen.
(7) Knowledge is better because time cannot harm knowledge, but wealth rusts in course of time and wears away.
(8) Knowledge is better because it is boundless while wealth is limited and you can keep account of it.
(9) Knowledge is better because it illuminates the mind while wealth is apt to blacken it.
(10) Knowledge is better because knowledge induced the humanity in our Prophet to say to Allah, "We worship Thee as we are Your servant," while wealth engendered in Pharaoh and Nimrod the vanity which made them claim Godhead.
In our quest for knowledge, we sometimes get too caught up with the overwhelming stress, headaches and fatigue to do well. Even I feel guilty for putting too much mental pressure on myself. I love what I'm studying but too many a times I fail to truly enjoy and appreciate its contents as much as I've should. Afterall, its knowledge for the taking that shouldn't be confined to the moment I submit my exam script. For one, I need to really work on that lack of time management that has been a problem since forever.
On a side note, mentel ain I went for reflexology!
Take a break, well you can have a kit kat, but you can consider reflex too! Or any other personal pampering will do. It'll do wonders ((:
