Nothing is free and easy in this world

I was blog walking and came across this story. The guy traded an amount of money in binary trading bank and the initial sum multiplied exponentially in a week. I was like how could this be true? The guy just drank coffee while money-making. Then I searched through the website about the bank and saw some news mentioning its service discontinuation. Why? Basically, it is just a betting on the commodity price. If it goes up, you win. If it goes down, you lose. So, what is better term to acknowledge this? Lottery.

Betting with money is not allowed in the religion. Logically, if you are depending on uncertainty, if you lose, you will lose badly. Some may have gone crazy. Some may have not.

The addiction to this happen when you are at winning. The tendency to become greedy is there if the reward is huge. You are going to repeat the betting, hoping that you will get richer next.

However, all of this is wrong, even if you think logically. How can you obtain an expensive items without even working on it? Even the conservation of mass principle state that mass in equals to mass out. So, whatever effort you put should be rewarded equally. That is how the norms work. Even if you want to eat, you have to open your mouth and chew the food. The feeling of getting full can only be realised when the food reach your stomach. So, nothing is magical in the real world. Only Allah is the Most Capable.

Inner conflict

I bet I really am in denial to go shower and work on my thesis tonight. Just finished watching two episodes of 'Return of Superman' and I had enough entertainment tonight. 

It is 2016, and I am really excited to end the MSc programme soon. I wonder what my life is going to progress next. Will I be working? Or... Will I be furthering studies to PHD level, I am not sure. But, just now, in the evening, Dr Fadzil said, the Dr title is not really something to be proud of, really. It shows that people have the trust on you to carry out the research on your own later. At least, you can guide someone else towards achieving better improvement or solution to problems in your field area. When I think of that thought, I don't know if I have that ability. After all, taking up responsibilities is really a big commitment that requires your energy. I don't know what has been planned for me by Him in near future. What I can say now is I really want to finish my thesis and whatsoever and think about other things later.

World issue has been scarier nowadays. Divorce rate among young couple, zika virus, political and economical instability all over the world, these are a few things that makes me wonder more of what I really want in life.
