When I was young and free and my
imagination had no limits,
I dreamed of changing the world.
As i grew older and wiser, I discovered the
world would not change, so I shortened my sights
somewhat and decide to change only my country.
But it too,seemed immovable.
As i grew into my twilight years, in one
last desperate attempt, I settled for changing
only my family, those closest to me;
but alas, they would have none of it.
And now as I lie on my death bed, I suddenly
realize: if only I had changed myself first,
then by example I would have changed my family.
From their inspiration and encouragement,
I would then have been able to better my country
and, who knows, I may have even
changed the world.

catatan pinggir atau catatan TERPINGGIR hahahaha
terpinggir dr mereka2 yg x cintakan ilmu dan bahasa.. :)
ohhh Aizam menjawab dengan penuh berHIKMAH... dalam english hikmah disebut WISDOM. Dalam bahasa Yunani adalah SOPHOS, cinta kepada hikmah atau love of wisdom adalah philo sophos atau philosophos yakni asal perkataan philosophy. Maka si Aizam, dengan memetik kata-kata filsuf Islam, Allama Iqbal dan jawapannya dengan penuh hikmah, adalah falsafah. Dan Aizam seakan-akan telah hilang minat kepada motivasi dan beralih kepada falsafah... hahaha selamat datang ke dunia Falsafah!
ahli falsafah perlu berilmu, jadi motivasi adalah satu cabang ilmu yg sy suka... dalam berfalsafah kita juga punyai ilmu lain... "manusia dipandang tinggi kerna ilmunya, bukan kerna hartanya,bukan kerna rupanya"
heh.. x kisah jd ape pon, dua dua minat!!!
apakah yang mereka2 ini katakan..
