My goodness. I had a message recently that she found my blog by Yahooing for this phrase, “What is wrong with dropping out of school”. I’ve checked and its on page 1 under the Singapore yahoo. Goodness. I’ve never thought someone would type out that phrase.

As we message back and forth, I was worried that she might not have the relevant skills to go on in life. But I was wrong, our dear friend here is actually taking her Masters in Malaysia and at the moment struggling financially because she is a single mum. Therefore when she read my article, she too find comfort and understand that the paper chase wasn’t as worth it as most people think. For her case her degree would already given her a proper job and the necessary skills to start her own business if possible.

Well my article should not encourage you to stop studying because that is what you choose and the decisions you make should be guided by Allah s.w.t. because he knows all. Its just a point of view from where I came and how I perceive that knowledge should not just be gain via the paper chase and that knowledge you learn should be applied in a discipline and ethical way.
