Why Write?

My last writing on "A Bit Reactivation" means a bit. Really a bit. Because after that, I didn't even memorize that I have a blog to maintain. --" So from now on, I'll try to write my experience, and forgive me if there are any grammar mistakes. :D

So, my supervisor for my thesis deeply encourage all of his students to keep writing. Because as he told me, the man who can change the world is the man who writes. When he said that, automatically I dig my memory and found two names, Plato and Socrates. The Philosophers. Plato was a student of Socrates, and two of them, in my opinion were the symbol of intelligentsia. Along with Aristotle, who surprisingly was the student of Plato, they helped to lay a Western philosophy and science (en.wikipedia/wiki/Plato). And I agreed my supervisor that the man who writes are one kind of a man who can change the world. Despite the fact that this world also need, what I call "actioners", the man who put their belief in action more than just on a piece of paper.

What I'm trying to say is: it is really good if we can do action, it's a must! And it will be better when we can mix actions and words so the impact will be greater than if we just do one of them. One is good, but two is better.

We learn from books. We should thank the authors because they are smart and have willingness to share their knowledge.
That is one thing I learn. We have the knowledge so we have responsibility to share it. Through writing.

Catch ya soon!
