PHD, to be or not to be...

My pursuit for PHD has now began. Its taking me another step to get that piece of scroll everyone in academia is chasing for. The journey is a bit scary having to listen to previous stories from colleagues of mine in pursuit of the same dream. Intention must be sincere in seeking knowledge that truely comes from the Almighty. We are only His servants doing what we think best for us. We never know what lies ahead. With all the weaknesses and inabilities of a normal human being I am seeking strength from Him day by day in this great struggle. O Allah assist me in this journey... I am not taking this journey alone though. So all the best to us all.
