All praise and thanks to Allah the exalted, the Lord of the universe, May the choicest blessings and peace of Allah be upon the last Messenger and Prophets, Muhammad, his pure family, his noble companions, and all those who follow his footsteps till the end of this universe.
One of the big achieved purposes of educating people is to awaken their minds, to set them free, because only if people are free to think, they could come up with innovative ideas that superior to previous thoughts and this era two important things we are experienced in school are thinking and exploring the unknown world, in other words, think beyond the current scope and thus students are equipped with the knowledge they need, and assist them to advance previous people. And if the student–youth of nation- do not have free minds and spirits, rather, they are restrained by previous ideas; they are not likely superior to previous thoughts, and make a progress.
And then our talent to create, conscious motivations, ideas, beliefs and abilities to change or aptitude to conceive are a blend of false information, preconception, irrational passions, rationalizations, prejudices, that our minds are being in use and automatically filled with virus and we get to be ideology owned, there we were simply made to believe that we can’t mine our mountains, we can’t reap our seas, we canโt harvest our productive land, as if we were made not to hit the century, because of the heavy virus we couldn’t find a cure in which morsels of truth swim around and give the reassurance albeit false, that the whole mixture is real and true. The thinking processes attempt to organize this whole cesspool of illusions according to the laws of plausibility and ability of our reality.
Though Freedom is not a constant attribute which we either have or have not. In fact, there is no such thing powerful as “freedom of mind” and the only one reality is the act of freeing minds in the process of thinking and making choices- were most cause of developed world to fly higher.
The rays of hope rises when looking with positive the awaken minds of this nation, what captured my tendency and turned on new hope in me is watching tomorrowโs leaders gathering to form better, to deny to be alienated, to decide to remain sensitive and able to feel, whom willing not to lose the sense of dignity, not to accept to be “for sale” or restrained by previous idea , whom are ready to suffer over the suffering of others, whom have the potential to change – briefly, a youth whom are eager remain a productive and not become a thing โthat donโt want to be lost in the dark world anymore in the ignorance, powerless, corruption, ravenous, or to be victim of tragedy future.
Generation creating clubs, groups, associations, to converse what the nation, and themselves need to step up with world, making exhibitions, to appreciate their creative individuals, you can perceive their activity new attitude of announcing much like asocial” or “irrational” in their eyes, so be it. Mostly they resent our freedom and our courage to be ourselves saying โIf other rest of the world do not understand our behaviorโso what? Their request that we must only do what they understand is an attempt to dictate to us. If this is being “asocial” or “irrational” in their eyes, so be it. Mostly they resent our freedom and our courage to be ourselves. We owe nobody an explanation or an accounting, as long as our acts do not hurt or infringe our societyโs dignity.โ A youth that accepts to Let their deeds be judged, and from their deeds, their real intentions, but insisting to stay awaken and free mined.
Why not to be hopeful when seeing tomorrowโs leaders and todayโs youth willing to fight to free the society, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. to fight for a society of reason, to free it from tribalism, corruptions, ignorance and to build a society where science and progress will lead to all men’s life.
To be better nation, to make better future for our children, to start the history with better lines it all depends on positive change, and key to change is in each of us, in the youth of the society, in us expanding our perspective and freeing our minds. And us understanding that were all ignorant in way that we may unaware led us to strive to educate ourselves to awake the slept minds and this is ok as long as we open our hearts to take responsibility that unless we prevent the drops the floods will continue, the change starts as we seek to learn more, to put side our ego and false beliefs that are backed by little to no research, which shut down our minds and reject the prospect of thinking to glimpse beyond the range.
There is a lot that happens around us that we canโt put an end to, but at least try to control; we canโt eradicate the tribalism, we canโt stop immigrations, we canโt avoid employment, we canโt prevent drought and we canโt prevent all conflicts, we canโt eliminate the addiction of Qat, yet when we know where the hungry, the homeless, the sick exist we can help. So far pain is felt, problem is seen, the key to solve exist not far, Education makes people easy to lead, easy to motivate them leave trivia of tribalism, easy to aware them richness of home, easy to train them tact of job creation, easy to govern, but impossible to enslave, impossible to deprive their minds over. And educated youth are only sure reliance that can bring back the prosperity.
Education taught our todayโs children that they can discipline themselves to change it all, that they can open the book that will open their minds to new era full of progressives, that they can start a new activity and the process of developing the nation no matter how longer years it takes them.
What shines the field of tomorrow is witnessing that there are awaken minds free from the bad attitude of just pretending something rather than performing. And if the Idea of having to change was uncomfortable, the freed minds understood staying constant under the enslave was like choosing rest over labor, entertainment over education, delusion over truth and doubt over confidence.
What else is missing when students of today arguing โwe have both the ability and the responsibility to make better choices beginning this era, we cannot allow our errors in judgment, repeated every day, to lead us down the wrong path. we canโt let our father and grand fathers to program our minds with badness of tribalism, we must keep coming back to those basics that make the biggest difference in how our life works out. And then we must make the very choices that will bring the good leadership, the productive brains and true lives to the nation.โ
Those who are in search of the change, good life, those whom felt the pain and promised to suffer over suffering of others deserve all my praise, no matter how less in number they are I believe great quality is hidden in the awaken minds, to reach solution and overcome problem is not always to conclude with answers, but it starts when way of solving is discussed. In my society there are awakened minds to be proud of that rises beam of hope,
Thanks God
