Jalan hidup

Di bawah ini adalah komentar dari Prof. Dieter Freude (Leipzig University) dari status facebook saya.

Janganlah kita berbicara mengenai tujuan akhir dari hidup. Jalanilah hidup secara ‘baik’, dan berusahalah menjadi orang yang ‘baik’. Janganlah dengan mengejar ambisi di dunia kita menjadi orang yang ‘tidak baik’. Insya Allah.
