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!

How do u know its summer?

Today I noticed it’s Summer already!.. Hurricane, thunderstorms are forecasted for tomorrow I hope that means some rain!

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.
- You start saying you’ll go tan, you’ll walk outdoor more, then it’s a week and u haven’t stepped outside!
- You don’t study anymore, though you got exams ahead.

So ya it’s summer alright!! It’s sooooooooooo HOT!!!!!!

Why do we like summer !

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.
