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.
