Ok today we'll go into some serious part where i would like to talk about moderation.
Apa itu moderation atau dalam bahase melayu, kesederhanaan? First of all,kita tanya cik wikipedia:-
Moderation is also a principle of life. In ancient Greece, the temple of Apollo at Delphi bore the inscription Meden Agan (μηδεν ἀγαν) - 'Nothing in excess'. Doing something "in moderation" means not doing it excessively. For instance, someone who moderates their food consumption tries to eat all food groups, but limits their intake of those that may cause deleterious effects to harmless levels. Similarly in Christianity, moderationism is the position that drinking alcoholic beverages temperately is permissible, though drunkenness is forbidden (see Christianity and alcohol). Moderation is a characteristic of the Swedish national psyche, more specifically described by the Swedish synonym Lagom. Islam also consider moderation as a preferred way of life, even when applying religious norms. Moderate Muslims adhere to the concept of contextual relativism as a way to grasp meaning from the Quran. They also understand the Quran as a whole opposed to a discrete understanding. Furthermore, Moderate Muslims also follow various types of Hadith (prophet Mohammed's sayings) that favor moderation and view muhammad as an ideal example of a moderate Muslim and Human.
Mari kite lihat dalam konteks yang besar, moderation dari segi kehidupan sosial, pemakanan, philosophy, idol, gaya hidup, dan macam2 lagi, termasuklah dalam agama.
Dalam agama sendiri kesederhanaan itu dituntut, dan ada logik dan relevan di sebalik tuntutan itu. Mari kita buka minda seluas-luas, lihat diri kita, orang2 terdekat kita, berita,cerita,journal,documentary di kaca tv, berita2 luar negeri, sampai lah ke luar negara, kisah2 peperangan, sosial, psikologi, bak kata dari A sampailah Z.
Moderation in love?
Akal kita ni amatlah kompleks, jikalau kita berfikir, perlulah difikirkan outside the box. Kita harus melihat dari sudut seen and unseen, bukan hanya satu belah, tetapi dua2. Macam yang first den cakap, buka minda seluas2 tapi of course bila kita buka, mesti ada limitation dan juga bersederhana kan? Dah lupe ape den cakap awal2 tadi?
Ini boleh dilihat dengan pembacaan surat khabar, articles, movies. Oklah in details, kita fokus satu per satu so anda readers tak bercelaru. Kita semua tahu moderation dalam pakaian,pemakanan, yang basic2 simple, tu semua pakcik makcik tau, yang akan kita fokuskan adalah pasal moderation in modern days: Thoughts in politics, propaganda, fanatism, way of life, social life, demokrasi, birokrasi, komunism, liberalisme, etc.
Satu persatu akan diulas nanti, cukup for now, baru habis exam, otak pun still blur2,hahah.
InsyaAllah to be continue...
