In a land where good people are a dieing breed it’s a wonder how any good survives the harsh realities of our current world. It’s said that there are no Evil people but evil acts, which means good people can do evil acts, then on what are they merited as good?
Good in some sense can be perceived as light, and in the absence of light there is darkness, does that mean evil is the absence of good? Is good the natural way of things or does it takes effort to be. Is a person born evil or good or is it learned and gained. We are born with clean slate does that mean clean, clear, white as in good?
Still I believe Good is present in our world, but when it’s absent great evil Happens! Wars, Gossip, murders, hell. If a Good person can do evil acts then evil people can do good acts, and if our behaviors and actions do not define our goodness or evilness what does then? Can you ever separate a person from his acts? People are very conflicting creature for I know u can kill a child in a morning and save a man at night, so have u been good or evil in one day or do one act cancel the other out or do they stand each on their own merit.
The wise one says
‘Good is an act, Evil is another act, its the action that makes the act’

The fool i am
With a goofy grin, and childish dreamy eyes, I’ll believe every lame lie. I’ll believe what ever they say no matter how ridiculous it may sound. It’s not because I don’t realize the truth, but what is truth? I think if you desperately make up silly lies then its only because you wish I could see you in certain light, and for that I’ll smile and laugh believing in every shameless lie you’d tell.
Why not be the fool they want? If its only the fool they see, I won’t have much to put up with. Let them play their silly games, act all smart when in fact u know all along how silly they look. People become your own inside joke :D

My Holy month
its a time in which starving a bit is followed by daily feasts. Night of prayers turn into midnight outings and sheesha becomes the night’s smell. Once boring Arabic TV channels are now very controversial. Once crazy traffic and jammed roads from five to eight now clear roads with sonic speeding cars at 6:10. Long working days now are short workless days. Social awareness increases dramatically; time spent not sleeping is spent with family and friends.
Less Music played, more Quran read. Charity is all around, more sad stories told. Masjeeds are filled in all 5 prayers and more at esha. People gather to help each other. Less yelling and fights during the day. More pleasant thoughts and acts.
We all do extra good during this month, but for those who do only good in this month is it right? What if u pray the taraweeh every night of Ramadan, then all year long you forget about the 5 daily prayers. Is a little good better than no good at all? Or do u need to be constant in your goodness? Or at least try to keep it up.
Tips for a pleasant month ‘which I learned the hard way mostly’
- Don’t have salt and vinegar chips for sohoor
- Eat in stages and not all at once
- Have legeemaat once a week
- Don’t stay out late on week night
- Don’t drive on the left lane at 6:20pm
- Read Quran after prayers
- Freej is lame so stop wasting ur time
- Leave work later and never at 2:00 or 3:00pm

is One smart?
Not matter how educated and knowledgeable one is there is more he doesn’t know. Being smart and intelligent is debatable, one can be called smart when in fact he is clueless then again he might be called stupid when he has more knowledge than anyone in the room.
One doesn’t need to be smart in one thing or in one way. One can be intelligent in different aspects. Once I thought One should excel in one thing and know a little about the rest. Now I think one should know plenty about everything and if he gets lucky he’ll excel in one thing.
Most of the time one is not judged by the amount of knowledge one has but by the way he presents.
who to say One is smart or not.
the wise one says
'the more you learn the more you find your self confused'

The traveler
Long time ago a man born into a poor family lived in an unnamed village on the other side of the sea, took upon him to live a better life than that of his father. Barely ten years old he was sent with his older brother across the sea to seek a better life, in a new city he found shelter with unfamiliar darker faces.
As he grew up he found a job of fetching things and singing on ship; that sailed for months beyond the sea he have known. He sang with his young tender voice while his brother dove to unknown depths searching for white circles hidden in closed hard purple shells.
After few months out on the rough sea they reach the land, where they piled on goods to sell at their homeland. As they set back to the mainland their ship is filled with a new feeling. Their sails caught more wind and once the air was filled with fish and salts smells its now with spices and perfumes all giving them the sense of fulfillment.
Later on the sea lost it lure and the pearls was a hard sell commodity thou still precious. After the rough sea left it impression and the distant lands changed him into a man he was ready to get married.
In this new city he called home he found a young girl who became his wife and gave him a dozen of children. But first he had to work to provide for his new family so he left his new city and crossed the land to another new city were oil was found and people had better jobs. After few years he came back to marry his wife and take her of to a 3rd city were it promised a better life for future generations. There he rose up his children in pro-education community boys and girls alike. Then by the time his kids grew up, the first city have become a business bay so he moved his family there for his kids to grow in a flourishing space where they can grow and have a life better than that of their father.
A now 60 years passed, he retired from working in chemical plant and started to enjoy his life by still traveling on, not for a better life but for a simpler enjoyable one.

Summer do i feel?
I recently just fallen into my usually summer mode, Up all night and sleeping all day; avoiding the sun on all circumstances. A month of summer just flied by, I don’t think I’ll ever have my summer vacation feeling back 3 moths of total blank schedules and just doing whatever whenever. This might be the only week I’ll ever have the chance to feel the same way I felt every summer since KG1.
Now summers are about summer courses, how much reading I can do before it and how much packing I have before I travel, then there is the traveling bit, no more trips to relax, nowadays I need to work double. It’s about how much I can learn in few months, and playing catch up with everything. Summer is getting hectic!
Thus I’ll enjoy my Week to the fullest, my phone will be off. I’ll have this week for my self! As it might very well be my last week to relax and enjoy my alone time. So far I’ve been baking and playing with kids, so very joyful, its time to change pace.
So recently I’ve found the videos website!! A gift from Heavn ‘God bless reemo’. I’ve been watching Judy Abbott ‘Daddy long leg’, that was one of my favorites cartoon as a kid, it was dubbed in Arabic back then. Now it’s in Japanese with subtitles, and yap now its anime not cartoon.
What else I just found this singer or group. Its amazing, so far all the songs are lovely!, they are called secondhand serenade! AWESOME
The sun is up now, so I suppose it’s time to sleep.

In her Memory
‘Prince William and Prince Harry will mark the 10th anniversary of their mother's death with an event to celebrate her life.’
How sweet of them, it just makes me look at what I’ve done to honor my mother’s life. 2 days ago marked the 8th anniversary of her death. It just passed by, just like that, nothing happened nothing at all.
It might be good as that day just marks the end, and we should be remembering her life. So we shouldn’t mark that day in our calendar, but rather remember all the 30 and some years before. I’m not sure I’d ever be able to do something so grand to honor my mother’s life.
Maybe one day I’ll be rich enough to build up a school for children in Nepal, and Mosque in Pakistan, and start up a cancer research center in my country in her name. Things that will show other people how even while she passed away some time ago she still leaves an impression in everyone life. Or maybe I’ll have something of her in me to pass on to others.
This isn’t meant to by sympathy attractor post, nor is it depressing. It just away to remind my self of what once was here, and still is with in us.

Living a Cartoons Life
Something caught my attention the other day, most of the Cartoons we love and grow up watching the lead characters were either Orphans or had a father only, yet they were always happy and made us happy too. If we adopt their way of living I bet everyone will be happy, they were poor at some times they faced crisis but at the end it was all so happy.
My favorites were Pollyanna, she had to live with a miserable Aunt and still she was always optimistic and happy! She saw the bright side of every situation. Then there is Jodi Abbott another orphan that get sponsored by the long shadow, this goes to show if you keep a positive attitude you will attract positive effects into your life. Then there was Heidi another orphan who had lo
Then there is the Opening song of me & my brother ‘ana wa a5i’, thou I just have seen the opening I find this song a great way to lead my life, As it says “we won’t let pain to stop us, thou she is a memory that we will never be forgotten’, everyone I met have luved this song. It’s amazing!

MY World!
In a world neither yours nor mine we are rather very possessive, like a wild cat we mark our territory and go berserk on the first person that steps into our marked space. Although we live on a land that might be identified by different names and sliced into different places we still on ONE planet. We share the same air and breath the same diminishing oxygen; we worry about Carbon dioxide and less fresh water. Then again we all have marked out our land and gave it imaginary boundaries only visible on maps.
We should start seeing our time here as it is temporary shortly ending. With that truth in front of us we start planning our legacy making what once we took as our own to stay with in our bloodlines how far they may stretch. We share this time and space we live in with other fellow human beings that are very much entitled to the same ownership we seem to possess.
Then again no matter what religion preaches of equality or law states, we are very much not. Never mind how much tolerance we reach our civilization we will always find ways to isolate people and distinguish them into classes that be by race or occupation or even income. No matter what we overcome we always have more to achieve and for one to prosper another needs to lose.
We all say we want to be treated as equals, but equals to what? A Man? A race? Or nationality? I think we need to start looking at our selves and the way we conceive the world and change it, and then the world will view us the way we want it too.
We need to understand the place we live in, and understand the people around us before we ask anyone to understand us.

Clueless happiness
Since ever I had a weak memory, I always forget people, situations and places. It can be a curse in a way, all the time I need to be reminded by something happened or of some place or someone. Then it can be a blessing you forget the pain you felt once and the misery you lived, and so u smile on.
Sadly when you get a bunch of awful memories, you try your best to forget them but you end up forgetting everything except those moments you desperately want to erase. Then suddenly you are erasing a person all together! You try desperately to recall some moments, that you start inventing some of your own, then the thin line between your imagination and vague memories blur and it all mixes up. Then in truth you can’t anymore trust your memory. So now you got nothing bad thing you wish you can erase. And you relay on someone’s else accounts of events you’ve lived.
One day you stop trying to remember, blocking it all out, and suddenly you forget it all! There is nothing there, and you are in a clueless happiness.
then a tiny winy memory sneaks in, and you question this happiness you live.
Well let lost memories be lost, they won’t change the present nor the future, only mess you up and get you back to a place you’ve escaped long ago.
So I believe I’m blessed to be extremely forgetful. It keeps me smiling!

So how do u know its summer?
- You swap your feather/cotton blanket for regular single sheet.
- You take a cold shower, for it turns to be just very steamy instead.
- You pull you hair up, and start thinking of cutting it short.
- You turn your car AC, and still it’s a greenhouse, u can now grow plants in you back seat.
- You start wearing summer dresses, anything with no sleeves and above the knee.
- You always carry an extra shirt, to change in.
- You start finishing your water bottle even before getting to class.
- You don’t step a foot at ‘uptown Madriff’.
- You sleep during the day, and wake up feeling all sticky.
- Every AC is on, with no real effect.
- You take another shower, hoping the water is cold, and no luck.

are you happy?
I think that we chase happiness all the time and worry about never obtaining it. While in fact we can just rest and be happy. Happiness isn’t an attainable object it’s a state of mind and soul. If your happy you don’t need money or a significant over ‘thou sure they will make life better and maybe happier’.
Then again we always express our sadness and grief to the fullest, but when we are happy we hide it worried it will get stolen. I think we should share both equally if not give happiness more time and space.
I really do find myself happy doing simple things, playing with kids, baking, going to the beach, typing, sleeping. If we allow our selves to feel good we will be happy all the time, even on exam week.
I’m happy today, knowing that I can feel the way I do with no obligations to others. I don’t have to worry about tomorrow, because it will come either ways. I feel content with life I have, I have great friends and family, I live in a lovely city. I don’t need more money, nor a fancy house and car. There might never be mister right, I might never be the next big name, I might not live to see tomorrow. But now at this moment I can say I’m thankful for all that I have, and I’m grateful to be born at this time in this place and with my religion.
This post is for all the times I seemed depressed or unhappy through my previous posts. Happiness to me is easily expressed and I live it, I might write in a darker mood only because I think sadness should be written down and not expressed in your actual life, it will taint your life.
Lets be happy, oh yap this all started because a couple of people said a nice thing to me. They reminded me that we should try and share our happy moments.

God Bless the White van
I’ve always felt that somehow in some way things just work out on their own,. Some say I’m just lazy to work out anything by myself, and others think I get things through some psychic power. I just think if I really wish very hard then it just happens.
So the other day I was in the next city ‘sharja’ , to get to the place I wanted to get to, I messed up few times that I ended up going up and done the road 3 times. So that was in day light and all looking safe, and the person I’ve been calling to ask for directions still didn’t get pissed off yet.
On the way back to my city, I seriously messed up and got totally lost, I didn’t want to call anyone really. I ended up in some deserted dark place, I contemplated rolling down the window and ask any way for directions, but I got an insane idea. I’ll just follow the car in front of me!
A white van was in front of me, so I’m like let me follow it and maybe its just going to my city. So I started following it, for a sec I thought this is so random,, then again I do very random things and as I say things fall into their places.
And Tata I got to my city! Thanks to the White Van

who has the control?
Do I have control over my life, or is this control I yield is all make belief. Have I lied to myself enough to make it the truth. How many times do you repeat a lie until it becomes reality?
Are we ever free, all of our actions are shaped because of our relationships, and when we think we are on our own, desire and what society made appealing are the force behind us. Do we ever motivate our selves? Can we live and motivate ourselves.

Do we play our roles, or cast them?
There is this thought I’ve always ponder, and I’m sure everyone have thought about it once or more.
In my culture and religion, we are told there is destiny and maybe things are pre-written for us. When you can’t picture your future, you’d be told not to worry about it and leave it for destiny to sort it out. Then at ever job interview they ask you where do you see your self in the future 5 years or even 10.
Then if our densities are pre-written, are we just pawns moving in our set courses. Then we are told you go either told hell or heaven based on our earthly doings. Then we are the writer of our lives, and then destiny isn’t written. We achieve as much as we desire and work for so there isn’t anything written for us. Is life not a rehearsal or a play that we will be judged upon and be awarded heaven or hell accordingly?
Does this say that destiny is our own fabrication and answer; for when we got no vision or answer about our futures. After all we can’t tell the future.

Driving in My City
People in my city loose their manner at the moment they sit behind the stirring wheel. It’s like the streets are a jungle and there are two roles to play either a deer or a lion. It’s not a jungle out there are lined lanes white to show you where you stand yellow to show where you might not, I don’t suppose the city spend money on painting the streets because it’s art.
I believe in a city who have the best paved roads and new intricate tunnels and bridges drivers need to be more civilized. Why don’t we give space for car to take the turn, it’s like when you see a car signaling in your way you take upon your self to make it as difficult as possible for them to changes lanes, which only results in making the poor driver miss the turn or way they had to take.
Then honking at car when the lights just turned green. If the first car didn’t move after 10 secs then you got all the right to honk at them. People should count to 10 then get frustrated with other drivers.
For a while I thought I’d carry some roses with me so every time some driver give me way or treats me well I’d give it to them show good will. then I can’t play catch up and try giving them the rose so I’ve let it drop.
If you get involved in a car accident and it wasn’t your fault don’t start yelling at the other driver and don’t bite you’re their head off. The next time you might cause it and surely in that moment your already upset and you don’t want someone getting angry with you.
I believe that if you treat others well then other will treat you well. It’s annoying when someone won’t give way because of a drivers nationality “that is beyond being racist” and sadly a lot of our kind are like that! Then some people feel entitled to the road they would run over anyone who doesn’t get out of their way and other will drive slower than a snail.
I’ve been in several accidents nothing serious and all were with pleasant people ‘thank God’, I never honk at anyone I find it to be very rude. My friends keep saying that I’m being silly. I think it’s already noise in the streets why add more. I always give other car a chance to cross and change lanes.
I believe if you put positive energy out you get some in too. I also believe in Karma, and in the concept of treating your fellow human the way you wish to be treated.

it's all in our minds
All the things we desire and want are attainable. I recently watch ‘The Secret’ it’s a wonderful film, it validated a lot for me. For the longest time I thought that I’m different than other people. I used to tell my friends that I don’t stress about things because if I only wished for them to happen then they will. When faced by a problem I don’t stress I always say things will always fall in their place. i’ve always told my friends if you just sleep and don’t stress about it; it will work out on its own. Some would say I’m avoiding the problems and I don’t confront them, so far everything worked out so well.
I think it’s all about positive thinking if you can visualize it, it will materialize. I don’t know about the theory of thought attracting things, but I know this much if I thought of something bad and visualized it most likely to happens, and so with positive thoughts.
It’s not something you can expect to work as soon as you think your thought, you have to think positively and try to see the positives in your life.
I used to get sick very often, and I used to complain about it a lot! Until one friend told me you only get sick because you think you are and you obsess about it. Since then whenever I got a cold I’d think I’m not sick and it’s just a flu, due to that way of thinking I’m now always feeling healthy and whatever cold I get would end quickly.
Then there is the thing with feelings according to ‘the secret’ there are two emotions bad or good. What we call sadness, grief, depression and so on are only variations of the same feelings. The first time I felt grief it took me years to get over it, until I realized if I didn’t take control of my feelings then they’ll ruin my life. I concluded I’ll feel sadness but I’ll end it when I choose and never let it drag on. Recently I was bummed about turning 21 and before few days of my birthday I was depressed, and all of my friend were worried and tried to cheer me up, I told them by new year which is just 3 days after I turned 21 I’ll be over it. I gave my self the space and time to feel what I needed to feel, and by new-year I ended it. You might think that isn’t possible to turn on and off an emotion. If you think its possible then it is, to get back to feeling good, I got out of my room I spent more time with people I haven’t seen in a long while and the most important thing is that I changed my music play-list. All you need to change you mood is to starting changing physical things you have control off and then it will change also.
Whatever it is you want you can achieve if only you start thinking that you can and preferably act on it in a positive way.

Can you Jog?
Recently I’ve realized I can’t jog, I either walk fast or run jogging is quite impossible. So here is what I thought this might very well reflect moderation, I mean if you can control your pace not to be slow or fast then it might mean that you are moderate person.
So I think it takes a great deal of strength and skill to be able to control yourself. It’s funny how simple things can reveal a lot.
Life is wonderful some might run all the way through it and in their busy state pass by most of it beauty. They just need to remember to slow down and pause to enjoy it every once in a while.
Then there are those who stroll all the way, no worries in the world as if everyday is another afternoon stroll in the park. Those at the end of their lives find that they’ve lived in vain they didn’t produce anything and they’ve wasted it all.
Then come those who can jog, they got it right. Those are the ones who have balanced their lives quite well. They are productive individuals of the society and still they do enjoy their days.

Cup-caking
Recently I’ve found joy in Cup-caking, I never thought that I’d be good at the kitchen but after seeing the light as pointed by noora&Budoor I see the joy in baking. So I decided to bakes some for my cousin it goes without saying I burned the first batch!.. it all went completely black! So I tried the next batch this time I stayed glued to the oven window for 15 minutes watching the cupcakes slowly raise! Then I iced them and they looked all so lovely. I get them to my cousin’s house and they all loved it!
After all there is hope for me in the kitchen! i’ll try making cookies next time. Simple things do bring great joy. I got a new DVD player though still I haven’t watched anything on it I’m so happy knowing I can watch whatever I want whenever I want.
This pace of life suits me very well, now I can sleep as late as I want I can go out as much as I want, and at last I can feel bored!
Though now I don’t see my friends as much starting to be more family loyal. I like the time alone watching TV & reading.
We should all have a period in the year were we just relax doing our usual routine but in a slower pace. It’s healthy to change your pace every while and then. Last couple of months was about running from one thing to another.
So I do hope everyone get their Slow period and try to relax, at the pace most are going by people will get heart at attacks while they are still in their twenties!

Only few have it
Recently I’ve come to realize with the help of friends that we seem to attract the worst genes from either side of the parents. If your mom side are chubby people you won’t get the skinny genes from your dad side, naaah you’ll surely be more to the fat side. If your mom side had soft thick black hair, you get stuck with your dad frizzy hair genes.
Some things can be helped and modified, you always can try out hair treatments and get on a diet to lose or keep off the extra kilos. I got the worst trait ever in our gene pool ‘hand and voice tremor’ AKA Familial tremor. There is worst things to inherit but this does hold up in the top 10 worst genes in the family pool.
It’s all in the genes! Despite that its the way we live that dictates our strengths and weakness. For instant though the tremor is not really curable, I can control it. If I’m not tired I won’t shakes as much, if I sleep long hours the tremor will be less, if I don’t get excited scared or stressed my voice will hold up just fine. If I don’t eat a lot and fix up my diet and work out more I won’t be fat.
At the end it depend on how much we want to take control. Everything is changeable and doable if we only exert the effort.

Sorry OG
Poor Orangeeta Garambeta she has been through a lot through in her first year. I haven’t been the best caretaker I’ve dragged her through mud and along the tar. She has endured so much of my absent mind misshapes, she have taken so much beating and crashes. OG is still in her first year but poor thing got wrinkles of a 30 year old. D-trap hasn’t seen so much torture from me, though she deserved it. DT is well older than OG and even than me yet she is in good shape for her age. Today we needed DT’s help but the old hag ran out of battery juice ‘perfect timing’ and OG got an open wound yet to be nurses, so far she got some bandages until she sees a professional mender.
So here this is a post to OG sorry luv for all the hurt I caused you, you know that I never meant it. It was an accident one that happens more often than I’d like to acknowledge.
Scars adds mystery of not personality so don’t worry my luv you look beautiful

Time to change
As the old man of India puts it “You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” he was wise I must say, why do we always find it easy to point the faults of the world and what should be changed. As some one once said ‘Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” We should start with our selves, and only when we are truly with out fault do we get the right point out others faults…
As the Arabic saying goes “a cow doesn’t see but its friends tail”… which in sense mean you don’t see your faults but you reflect them on others.
So we need to recognize our own flaws and work on fixing them. Today I acknowledge the fact that I plan and plan and I never follow through. So from now on I’ll do my best to follow through with my plans… firstly I promise to exercise everyday and cut out junk food.
Then here I am I want a better world, not in a beauty queen sense of world peace. I want people to Donate blood, yet I myself don’t and because I complain about it. As the lady says “If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain.” I’m going to try to donate something else and maybe work for the cause.
It’s up to us, if your not motivated just do it and you’ll be motivated. Don’t over think it and analyze it don’t set up plans don’t promise just get on doing it. A someone says “To change one's life: 1. Start immediately, 2. Do it flamboyantly, 3. No exceptions.”

the songs
yesterday i decided that i should toughen up and try to bend my wrist for hopes of trying push ups! In attempts to get fit. To my surprise it bent! I was static and contemplating going to a gym the next morning, but the next morning I woke up with a numb finger an a bruised wrist didn’t see that coming, so push ups have to wait a couple of months I guess last time I could bend my wrist to do push ups was when I was 14! And I wasn’t any good at it.

Sorry but I do not remember
Today I read the Editor’s column it was quite interesting. I didn’t ask the editor if she wrote it while having me in mind ‘which is quite possible’. So it was telling a story a person imagining what today would have been if they had someone around. Would they do what everyone is doing and be glad for a smile? And how they thought that the person they miss is very brave.
And all I felt is nothing, I don’t dwell on the past anymore, for I no longer remember. It’s sad as I might have spent the most time with her, but I don’t remember her. I miss the concept of her, but I don’t know whom I miss.
I forgot maybe the person everyone holds very dear to his or her heart, but all I can do is attribute it to bad memory. I bet there have been great moments but I can’t recall any. Is it my fault? I remember events I remember some special days, but I never remember who was around with me. What does that say about me? hmm did I ever care about anybody to keep them in mind. I remember Germany because of the tapes; I remember birthdays because of pictures. Do I remember anything on my own? No not really. I like what my friends are doing now documenting everyday with a picture, I might really need that to keep track of my life as I’m due to forget. I think in some way this blog will act as reminder of some memories.

how will you die?
Have u ever thought of how you’d die? Maybe some heroic death or just a mundane one.
Ever thought of you death's scenario; I’ve always imagined that I’d fall down the stairs and break my neck, or I’d collapse and hit my head on something hard and get and get a fatal head injury. Gruesome?
Yet I’m aware that most die in unexpected ways, but I see these scenarios very possible.
I don’t have any suicidal tendencies or thoughts, I have to stress that fact this is neither a cry for help nor a death wish. It’s simply something to wonder about.

Selfish vs. Sadness
Staring at strawberry tart my thoughts drift away, between the water bottle and the pizza I remember 2004. I let my thought formulate a memory of a person, and then suddenly I remembered that in truth 2004 was his last year with us. My thought caught my smiles and laughter and I don’t know what I really felt, despair, guilt, or shame.
We are selfish beings no matter how much others agonize in their own despair we are still smiling. We eat strawberry tarts and leave half a pizza untouched, when there are others who only want crumbs of bread. We buy expensive gifts in diamonds and gold, where those who have dug up those gems are stricken by poverty.
We might really feel sorrow, grief and even sadness, but it’s funny how one day you find your self just smiling again and laughing. Then if we truly have moved on and we are over our grief, how come sadness can overtake us in a second? Then all of a sudden the same doubtful dream state you’ve gone through is back, and beyond all realities you hope that this sadness isn’t true as it’s all but a bad dream.
How can we complain about our hectic lives, when some are gasping for a last breath to live? Then we complain for not having the right physique, when some only pray to be healthy again.

Why Do You Smoke?
Every time I see a person smoking I get a compelling urge to say/do something. We all know that smoking causes lung cancer and heart disease..etc, and more bluntly on some packets there is a “SMOKING KILLS” sticker on it; yet people smoke. I hope that in this part of the world more bold signs would be around not those size 5 read types that gives you a might be or not warning.
Shouldn’t closed areas ban smoking, for the obvious reason that less ventilation there is so whatever clean air there is; should be cherished! Now the pipe and cigar thing are more of a “gentlemen club” thing not a walk in park or mall type of smokes I’d say.
Worst off why do you smoke around children! I can’t fathom why a father or a mother would smoke around their children. Shouldn’t smokers be away from kids, yet there are plenty smokers hanging around kids all the time, in parks in shopping malls and in arcades.
Smoking does not only kill the smokers, but all that are around them too. I wouldn’t mind smoking if all smokers went and lived on remote island and took all of their fumes with them.
So smokers quit, or die before you kill.

When Believing Counts for nothing
Today I’ve put some color on my face so I won’t feel pale. I wore my high heels to feel tall and grand. I pulled it off i was taller than everyone and I looked healthy. With my new façade I truly believed I’ll pull it off and have improved some how.
I walked into the temp clinic hoping that my hemoglobin is high now, I truly felt strong and healthy. Then me and Blondie went in thou she wasn’t really happy about the needles she was there, and that says plenty about her character. For the rest of my friends all I’ll say we Need more friends like Blondie incase I or they ever need blood.
I know that I knew that I won’t have 13.5 hemoglobin, simply cuz I’ve never seen that number in my life but I still help to my who believing system. Last time I checked was 2 years ago to qualify for surgery it was 10.4 and that was good enough, and today it was 10.2 dumb luck, crappy blood.
They say good intentions count, with no results they are pointless. I should work on getting my hemoglobin higher and then I’ll host my own blood drive.
I suppose I’ll have to find another way to do good. I’ve concluded that I’ll be an organ donor. If I couldn’t help advance science I’ll do my best to help in any way possible.

I believe
I believe in the good human nature and in a better tomorrow. We will always do good as long we are given the opportunity, so here we are presented with best opportunity ever, Blood Donation! I think it’s a great cause and doesn’t cost us very much.
I don’t understand why wouldn’t a healthy person donate. The lame excuse of being scared of needles is shameless, saying you are worried you’d faint or so if your healthy enough you wouldn’t. Every healthy person presented with the opportunity should donate.
I believe that I’m healthy and I’ll donate enshalla. This is one of the things on the “before 45 to do list”. If this happens I’ll be a happy fluttering hummingbird.

Too Old To Jump!
It’s a sad truth when you realize you are too old to jump or run, I feel 11 years old in my head I can run up the hill and bungee jump of a cliff. While jumping in jumping castle have put on bed rest for a whole day, and running around a 1 year old have almost set me back 2 oxygen tanks. I still do think I have an eleven-year-old spirit inside me ready to run and jump.
When have I gotten too old to jump? What will happen by 31 brittle bones?
I think we all should change our life styles, before any of us get too fat to walk or too old to stand straight. We need to balance our diet stop the one meal routine most have established or the no meal at all and plenty of snack all day long.
Exercise is good, I should start my original exercise plan which by I park in the furthest parking spot in the parking lot. I think we should walk when we can drive and stand when we can sit.
You know how you will ever lose any access weight you got? its by posting your weight after every post you put on your blog,
I bet you’ll stick to whatever diet or exercise plan you set up for yourself. That will be very interesting, oh well next post I’ll put up my weight and height and see how many posts it will get me to lose the weight I want to lose and how much taller I might get (if only I could). I suppose 21 is too old for any sudden growth spurt huh.
Oh ya anyone feels they need to lose any weight or maybe need any casual exercise tips, I’ll be your fat buddy, who got plenty to say about both as I my self will be trying them out.
So best of luck too all those who have an 11 year old child trapped inside them.

Secret Garden
I’ve always wanted a secret hide away, a place no one existed or at least I didn’t need to care about anyone. A place where it’s mystical like Avalon in the mist, a place peaceful and worriless. A place with not so much light just enough to see your way but not so bright.
Recently I’ve come across such a place, and tonight was a wonderful, it was raining and the air cool and fresh. It’s an amazing place where no one is there but me, and that is real and not just in my head. It is a garden but with no chirping birds, no playful kids and no people around. Probably because it’s always late at night, but it’s simply my place and it’s wonderful.
When I’m at the Garden all I hear is some music and my thoughts, I’m happy I wonderfully cheerful, and I couldn’t care less about my soaking clothes. Water puddles reflecting the little light out there and everything goes into a hazy blur, as seeing properly isn’t that important anymore, all that surrounds me feels surreal and I do not need to register any of it thus I am blissfully entranced.

Hope
In happiness my heart rejoices, dancing away the sadness this night. For all that sadness we see, there is a lot to be happy about. So many times I wrote about things that upsets me, yet never about the happy moments. Today I’m gleeful as hope makes everything happy even if just in an idea.
Hope is all you need as it will make you happy in your present and delightful in your future. In a world consume by hatred and war, you start to doubt the chances of happiness of surviving. What rebuild a city after tanks and bombs turn it to ruin but hope. What keeps a cancer patient smiling other than hope.
Things that rekindled hope.
- I’ve just watched the motorcycle dairies and I’ve felt at ease. This is a film that speaks of the misfortunes of some and how one kind word or act change a lot. It’s just a very hopeful look at life.
- I went to Cirque du soliel, and the show was about the ordinary people you’d usually pass by it was very magical and amazing. It told an ordinary life story with no dialogue it’s truly an experience.
- The national football team have won, and that was a very joyful moments, hope in football rekindled.
It’s been a great week, hope it stay like that.

FORGET then FORGIVE
I suppose forgiving someone who truly has hurt you is quite hard. Here is my philosophy your must forget the incident so by it’s not bothering you thus no need for the forgiving part, some time in future u might be reminded by the incident but because you don’t recall it by yourself you’ll be inclined to forgive. This doesn’t require a big warm heart or a kind soul, yet it might not work for the vengeful hearts and those who hold a grudge dearly to their hearts. Holding a grudge and planning your vengeance isn’t just time consuming it also adds to your stress
Then again this might only work with me because I’m a very forgetful person. By the end of the semester everything piles up and there are more thing to remember so my forearm acted as a chalkboard.

On a Happy Note
Last year is a bygone, and we shouldn’t dwell on the past, let bygones be bygones.
Today is a new start, it’s a refreshing morning, and all out to celebrate the new start, and I with.
There is lost to do this year, Weddings, birthdays and graduations all reasons to merry and happy today. A new plan to set in motion, a very promising year this is, my resolutions, are to be chirpy as humming bird, radiant as the sun, and let the gloominess stay with the “Old Spirit of 20”. I’m going to be healthy! I’ll eat some sort of a vegetable, maybe tomatoes! “Sure;)“ I’ll get some exercise and stop being a coach potato, be more active. I’ll finish my h.w’s!!!! I’ll apply for universities!! I’ll graduate!! I’ll be a better friend. I’ll be less blunt and more diplomatic. “Isn’t Hypocrisy the new commodity.”
All in all, this is a good year!
