I have a pet. Loved by all in the family. Each one of us calls it by a different name.
I call it iPet.
iPet, we noticed, has suddenly started to roam around the bookshelves all over the house. Especially haunting the physics and mathematics sections of our library.
I am not one for discouraging anyone from learning or reading. iPet was no exception.
However, one day I found iPet sulking on a sofa cushion. Lost in thought. I observed iPet for sometime.
Then approached iPet and asked gently, what the issue was that seemed to be occupying so much of iPet's time.
I observed the stars on the roof, said iPet. And I heard music, iPet added.
I want to learn music, said iPet.
I became fascinated with the stars, continued iPet. What causes the stars to produce music?, asked iPet. I remained silent.
You know Fahim, said iPet thoughtfully, it took some hard thinking. I had to find out what made the stars sing..'tick' in your parlance, said iPet. So Fahim, I took to studying the physics of star formations.
Quantum Physics cropped up, said iPet. Not understanding mathematics or physics, I am stuck.
If I cannot understand maths, I shall fail to understand Physics. Fail to understand Physics, I shall fail to understand the ' thing ' that makes the stars ' sing '. If I fail to understand that, I shall fail to learn music. iPet looked at me with pleading eyes. Can you help me Fahim?
I know a friend, I told iPet. I shall introduce you to him. Maybe he can explain it to you.
