Lesson Learn From being Practicum Assistant

Every Tuesday, I have a job to guide my junior doing Bioinformatic Practicum. And I get big lesson learn that day. Let me tell you a story.

There is a boy. He really does practicum well. If we have a discussion or other student ask about something, he will answer first and show some literature. Even, when all of the students can't get the answer of the program output, He can do it well and very easy to share his answer by the assistant. And I can see that it is really pure for help and not intended to be arrogant. So, form that phenomenon I really trust him and I believe He will get a good score in this module. But, what I get after I check his answer in the another time? His score is not good enough if I compare with another student in his group. What's wrong with him?

The point is, I don't want to make a problem about that. I just learn something and this phenomenon slapped me hard. Then I think again and again. I think Allah is trying to communicate with me. I think that Allah wants to deliver a message to me. Yes, I believe that. Nobody can guarantee something. The logical thinking is not enough if we compare with Allah's power. There is a stuff that we think impossible but Allah says it is possible. There is a stuff that we think possible but Allah says it is impossible. So, I think Allah is trying to remind me that don't stop to trying even though I think logically I almost can't finish doing that. What I see good is actually bad for me and vice versa.

Every time, when I lost my way. Allah always gives me a message. Unfortunately, sometimes I can't notice it. I should try to build my belief again that Allah always has a plan to answer why I am here. Yes, I just need more sensitive and patient.
