I learned something new in Japanese literature discussion, yesterday... It's already past midnight, so it should be yesterday, aight? It's about Existentialism, which I almost forgot about its basic idea... so it caught me again with the idea of subjectivity, but I realized that they are teaching egoism and self-assertion in thinking... that is because you see life according to your personal life only, as people generally see themselves in others... this is good but in certain extent it is not...

When you define your meaning of life subjective to your own selfish goal and satisfaction, you live life as if nothing is wrong according to your groundless principle because religion and set of moralities are not valid according to Existentialist thinking... I should realized about this sooner so I could right a better paper on this issue when I was in Existentialism class...

So, I realized how reading ahead of time prepares you better for class discussion, no no I mean truth is subjective only to those whose hearts have no eyes... they are atheist people because Existentialist are mainly people who have no religion, believing nothing in religious ideology... and weirdly, you should notice this fact about some Christians, there are Christian Existentialists who claim why not we believe in religion if truth is too subjective, so at least we could have a goal in our lives... see, they are trying to be part of the movement in the shed of Christianity... they do something good actually, but to some people these Christians are crazy enough to embrace Existentialism... because your truth is never be the same truth for others according to Existentialist perspective... thus, it is worth nothing to talk with people who already cover their hearts with veil and darkness of selfish egoism...

But, to think of this matter from Christian point of view is actually too boring because I don't actually believe in Christianity, but how are we going to address this matter according to Islamic point of view? To some of my fellow so-caleed Islamic followers, I don't want to call you all Muslims because I don't want to generalize haha, would you ever care about this movement and ideology of Existentialism? Or at least have you ever heard about this before? Some might say, who cares... But I will say tid tidit (like in the Mind of the Mencia)... Again, in the literature class, we found an interesting fact that most news in newspapers are not really connected to our personal lives, but the news is there in the heart of the newspaper... have you ever think about gossip could be a front page story while you realized in Surah Al-Hujuraat, the job of a Muslim is to be careful about spreading gossip or groundless issues/news to others... you see, some writers claim they are Muslim, the fact is that they don't even think about this reminder in that particular surah... that's why we should brainwash all editors and writers and reporters, coz they should report about things that matter the most... about incidents are fine, but what about any news that encourages the betterment and improvement of the society, like a news that curse the authority for being dumb and slow in works... until a report is published will they start to care and move their lazy asses... seriously, if you read newspaper nowadays, even a story about saving a cat is important to be cover by the media because it is interesting enough to see the lifesaver giving CPR and oxygen to the kittens... and even a story about a famous young artist is trying to make a move with another woman while he is already engaged, who else, you should know better than me... that's because the story is hot and given a spot as a front page report, P-word for the editor and writer, "Please!"
