My Spiritual Experience

This picture was taken when I was volunteering as a committee of the Islamic Seminary in Amherst Massachusetts USA in 2006. The view is from the gate where cars may enter the yard and park there. It seems that the picture is old, however, you still can find me wear the shirt and the trousers and even the pair of glasses when I am at campus of UM Metro or at IBI Darmajaya.

I like that picture for some reason. First it always reminds me of being far away from an Islamic community though I could still be a volunteer and do a good deed for my society. Second, It seems that the picture has a magic power whenever I look at it and think about it with spiritual soul. Third, It records my life track when I am a way from my home country. It can be a proof that I spent my time in a good way as reflection of my belief and identity. Finally, It has a unique or unusual view.The mosque in which the Islamic Seminary was carried out is on the top of a Loose Goose Cafe.On the second floor exactly. A contradictory situation where it is possible that the people in the cafe are doing something immoral such as drunken while the people who are inside the mosque are practicing Islamic Sharia such as doing sholat, or ta'lim.

In brief, I like that picture because It has some meaningful reminders that are useful for sustainability of my life as a moslem and a lecturer.
