Lately I've been thinking a lot about what I want to do with my life and you know what? I have no idea. Well, I have ideas, it's just a matter of figuring out where to start. Right now I'm a stay-at-home wife and a mommy to an adorable 2 month old baby girl. I know that I need to go to college and get a degree with which I can support myself and her in case (God forbid) something happens to my husband. I also know that I want to attend a alim program that a local mosque offers. It's a 6 year long program. I feel like I should go to college first, but I really want to do the alim program. I want knowledge of Islam. I'm tired of feeling clueless. I know that there will always be more to learn, but the alim program would be a good start inshallah. And it'd be good because then I would be able to teach my daughter (and any future children, inshallah!) about Islam.
If I do go to college, what would I even study? Perhaps I could do the alim program first, then get a teaching degree and teach at an Islamic school. I know that I want to be able to easily find a job in my field if needed.
Basically, I have no idea what I want.
FYI for whoever is reading this, this blog might not actually be anything interesting, it might just be a place for me to get my thoughts out and figure out my life.
