    where to......

    When you Try Everything,
    You are left with nothing

    I've always been crazy about trying and learning
    taking risks and letting go

    try to go everywhere, try talk to every1, try to join every group
    try to listen to every type of music
    try to watch to all types of movies
    try to try it all

    talking to every1,,, i have no time to make best friends..so  i am left with no body
    going everywhere,,, i have no place that i belong to or feel home
    joining every group, i have no enough dedication to stay in one only
    listening to all types of music, there's no favorite type bcuz i haven't listened to all the music on the planet yet
    and so many of them are so good that i can hardly remember any names so even though i love it,i can't go back there again
    and same as  watching all types of movies, i can't remember which 1 was my favorite

    when you try it all, you lose it all

    i am close to 20 now
    and i don't know who is my friend or to where i belong or which group i am in
    not sure about what music i love or what movies are my type

    should i just keep on trying and exploring?
    or settle down and give up that enthusiasm about everything new to me??????????
    because i kno no matter how much i try,, i'll  never get enough of it

    Now or Never

    Though I am not a big fan of tamer hosni, I was captured by latest hit" ana mosh 3aref at3'yar"

    i was captured most by the line that meant:

    " I'll start tomorrow to be different, tomorrow comes and I'm still the same"

    Again I repeat I am no fan of that so called tamer hosni, but the line showed pure wisdom

    I've always said that to any one who intended to change:

    Tomorrow I'll stop smoking cigarettes,

    By the start of the week I'll go on a diet,

    Or as sha'abn said:

    Men awel yanayer, hakoon ensan gdeed

    CRAP

    Yes crap, if you noticed, the previous statements are 100% real , yet the person themselves never changed

    Wl 7al?

    You want to start? Start now!

    Yes, believe it or not, in most cases, the momentary decision followed by an effective action is the key to the first step

    Never believe those who claim: I'll just finish this pack of cigarettes and I promise it will be my last, or,  I promise I'll go to the gym starting this saterday

    No promises.

    You wanna stop smoking, break that cigarette between ur fingers right now, or are you too weak to do that?

    If your answer was yes. . then don't expect to be stronger by the end of the pack

    Am I right or what?BOTTOM LINE: it's now or never

    March 07

    Gotta say it

    Everynow and then i reach that stage which i call: absolutely nowhere
    and am looking forward for the time when i never go back there
     
    but it just seems so far away
    cuz  i keep losing grid everytime i stand up
     
    Runing in circles with no clear targets
    am not talking here about finishing my education bla bla bla cuz this is not a target anymore its pretty much like FATE: sth u cannot change
     
    what am seeking for r real goals i work hard to acheive and feel the joy of victory when acheived
    need motivation , enthusiasm and even some dark times
    at least i know where am going
     
    i've tried, but goals doesn't seem to walk side by side with what i am in right now (i.e what iam doing right now is pure fate with zero control)
    so,,,,,
    where does it end
    it's a circle, a complicated circle
    how can a circle be complicated?
    it's simple: i can't seem to find the center of it, can't even find a radian
     
    Just life goes on!

    Life Lessons, It's about time

     

    2day ilearned a new life lesson

    It took me about 3 years

    But 2day was the day 2 reveal the whole truth

    1- I learned that no matter how well you think you know people

    Or how much do you think you know about life

    You can still be fooled by the closest one to u

    You can be betrayed and cheated on

     

     2- There are so many fakers in this world

    Actually honest people are the strange phenomena nowadays

    And among those

    You have to stand strong and act cool,, pretend as you believe,, and it's nothing fake cuz they started it

     

    3- no matter how old are you, or how much u've been through

    U still don't know everything

    So, instead of fighting back, take a moment and listen

    Listen all, and then speak last

    Stay open minded and welling to learn

    Cuz every time u listen I promise if u listen well, u'll learn something new

    Listen – lesson

    Take everything for you as a lesson

    A song, a book, a quote, a situation or even a blog

    Cuz it'll help a lot

    It will not prevent you from doing mistakes, but it will cause less harm

     

     

    4- Remember when you listen, that you have principles and concepts

    And not everything you hear is true,, stay open minded and listen yes

    But don't immediately believe, think it through, leave it to the days and it will prove it

     

    5- No regrets

    No regrets, they don't work, No regrets they only hurt

    Don't regret a time if it had a moment of joy

    Don't regret an experience if it had a lesson for u to learn

    Regrets hurt a lot

    God does everything for a reason, Try to understand it

    And Always be thankful

    God loves us

     

    6- Give yourself a chance

    Don't blame urself every time something goes wrong, it doesn't have to be ur fault

    Sometimes it's just fate!

     

    7- Life is the way you see it

    Don't weep and wine every night saying life is unfair and you don't deserve what's happening to you

    Life is what you make it and how you see it, so stop being a loser and Move you're little self on

    n let go

    8- Move on

    You can never rewind or go back in time,, what's over is over

    If you can't change it, forget it and start new

    Giving up doesn't always mean we're weak, sometimes it means we're strong enough to let go

    And believe me, It's as easy as it seems

     

    9- Have Faith

    Always have faith in God, urself n ur hopes n dreams

    Not anybody else, cuz u can't be sure

     

     

    10- It's never too late

    You can always start new and right, when u can't change ur past

    Leave it as it is and start with all its good forgetting all its bad

    All by myself

    All By Myself  - celine dion
    When I was young
    I never needed anyone
    And making love was just for fun
    Those days are gone
    Livin' alone
    I think of all the friends I've known
    When I dial the telephone
    Nobody's home

    All by myself
    Don't wanna be
    All by myself
    Anymore

    Hard to be sure
    Sometimes I feel so insecure
    And loves so distant and obscure
    Remains the cure

    All by myself
    Don't wanna be
    All by myself
    Anymore
    All by myself
    Don't wanna live
    All by myself
    Anymore

    When I was young
    I never needed anyone
    Making love was just for fun
    Those days are gone

    All by myself
    Don't wanna be
    All by myself
    Anymore
    All by myself
    Don't wanna live
    Oh
    Don't wanna live
    By myself, by myself
    Anymore
    By myself
    Anymore
    Oh
    All by myself
    Don't wanna live
    I never, never, never
    Needed anyone

    the thing is:
    I am still young
    and I'm wondering
    Are these days she's talking about coming i the way?????
    I don't wanna be
    by myself
    December 02

    I quit

     

    For the first time in my life,, There’s no bright side!!!!

    I just can’t help being so lost

    And I am totally transformed

     

    I am back to earth

    I’ve involuntarily left my fantasy dream world

    To come back to earth and live like all others

    Being realistic and logical

     

    I cry n cry

    For sorrows in my heart

    No one can hear

    No one can see me

    All alone

    And I wish if there was some1 watching

    So he could come and hug me tightly

    And promise me a better life

     

    Or some1 listening

    So he can come and ask me

    And I just open up

    Everything

    Totally everything

    I am hiding my pains from reasonably every1

    I do have my reasons and excuses

     

    And I can’t help it

    I am torn up I am broken down I am shattered into small pieces

    And nobody knows

    Absolutely nobody!

     

    I seem strong as hard solid

    Unbreakable

     

    But I am only unbreakable, cuz there’s nothing really left to break!

    So is life with me

     

    I am so tired of hiding it

    I am not asking for a change

    I am only asking for a chance to talk and get all this out of me

     

    I donnu what I am doing

    Or  I donnu where I am going

    But I know that

     

    I am being so harsh on me

    Trying to be some1 else

    Trying to be every1 around

     

    I compare myself to every1 I like

    Observe what’s really good in them,, and wonder if I am as good

    Thus, I am attempting so hard to change

    And become Everyone, Separately

    So Everybody else loves me

     

    I am losing myself

    I am losing myself

    I am losing myself, thinking that I am making “me” a better person

    But the only thing I am doing is shattering myself

    I am breaking every single sweet thing me

    And soon,

    I’ll be left with nothing

     

     I need immediate therapy

    Better yet, I need my mom

    Cuz I can’t handle it on my own

    And I can’t see a bright side in being all on my own with absolutely no1 for me

    I took the chance to find that one

    But then at once I stopped

    It felt wrong

    No

    No it didn’t feel wrong

    But people who don’t know everything about me made it look wrong

    And so I quit

    what's the point in it , where's the benefit, when i am gaining all but i am losing it

    Same Mistake (2)

    I Learned My Mistake
    My mistake was :Starting it
    Don't Start, and you will never make a mistake
    don't start, cuz eventually you know you will end it, wondering what went wrong
    Starting it was wrong!
    November 13

    Same Mistake

    Everytime I think of you, I keep wondering what did we do wrong? What was the Mistake that led to what we are now, apart!
     
    There must be something went wrong and so we are apart...
    As if everything went right, we would have made it through.
     
    Wether it's your fault or mine,I am not here to judge or blame.
    But to avoid those mistakes when I am with someone else
     
    Forgive me, I had to!

    (No more) What ifs

    All the could-be's buzzin' 'round
    My mind a thousand-timely cloud
    And now I can not see the sun

    All the worries on my list
    Rush like lamings off a cliff
    I'm powerless to save even one

    All my friends tell me I'm thinking too much
    It's not over 'til it's over
    Because today is trouble enough
    Live tomorrow, 'til tomorrow

    I'm not jinxing what could be
    Second guessing what I see
    There is you and there is me
    No what if's
    My crossing fingers knocking wood
    'cause worrying about we could
    Spoil the moment when it's good
    No more what ifs
    Could-be's
    One day's
    If only's

    That intro's looping on and on
    Don't really get to feel the song
    When it's only playing in my head

    If I don't listen with my heart
    Trust my instincts from the start
    Then I'm as done, as done can get

    So I'm not
    I'm not jinxing what could be
    Second guessing what I see
    There is you and there is me
    No what if's
    My crossing fingers knocking wood
    'cause worrying about we could
    Spoil the moment when it's good
    No more what ifs
    Could-be's
    One day's
    If only's

    If the sky falls down
    What if it don't work out
    What if a black cat crosses my path
    Does that mean you and me, we're not gonna last?
    What if Mr Right turns out to be wrong?
    What if there's no happy ending for this song
    What if the one for me is the one that's she's with
    When my heart feels love, or will my head believes it?

    I'm thinking too much.
    It's not over 'til it's over
    'cause today is trouble enough
    Live tomorrow, 'til tomorrow

    I'm not jinxing what could be
    Second guessing what I see
    There is you and there is me
    No what if's
    My crossing fingers knocking wood
    'cause worrying about we could
    Spoil the moment when it's good
    No more what ifs
    Could-be's
    One day's
    If only's

     

    I just wish if i could still down for  a while

    cuz everytime i get started i mess up

    Grow young

    Is it good to be mature?
    mmm
    to be a teenager but think and act like grown ups?
    it might be right and healthy
    but noo it's not fun at all
    I don't know
    I guess i don wanna be mature with wise mind and grown up thoughts
    i just wanna be what any gurl in my age is supposed to be
    i don't wanna grow up old
    i stilll wana do all the fool teenagers do and all the experinces they go through
    i wanna love and fail in that love and shed my tears
    dare to speak my mind loudly
    dare to listen to any kind of music and say all kinds of silly or funny jokes
    just like any 18 immature teenage gurl
    i know that will cuz me lots of troubles but so what!
    i've lived it
    i am gonna grow up anyway
    why do  i wanna make it too soon for myself while i still have couple of years to MESS as much as i want
    and ppl won't take me too seriously cuz am still a teenager
    do you know what i might come to regret right now
    all the years i spent thinking " oh no grown ups won't do so, i won't neither"
    i should have done that bcuz any young foolish teenager would
    i still have time to MESS UP and do mistakes
    I will
    i am sorry mom and dad for confiding me thinking that i am old enough to live on my own
    but the truth is, i am growing younger, not older!

    You're still the one

    the aeroplane was about to take off, seconds pass like years in my head.
    He leaned a little and whispered in my ear: "few hours later and we'll be in a total different country with a whole new life infront of you".
    As if i needed his words!
    i closed my eyes and started to think deeply of what i am leaving behind
    i am leaving the whole me
    leaving your sight, leaving your scent
    leaving your voice, leaving your place
    leaving anything or anywhere i ever belonged to
    to go for a complete different infamiliar place
    just to get over you
    It's just too stupid of me
    thinking that i could forget you by torturing myself in your absence
    The plane is moving
    and i give it a second thought
    do i really want to forget you
    do i really wish to spend the rest of my life trying to get over you
    while being in ur arms is the only thing that makes me feel alive!!!
     WHY DID WE DO THAT TO OURSELVES?
    WHY DID YOU LET THAT HAPPEN?
    I  am not blaming you
    I am just wondering
    and it doesn't have to be somebody's fault
    it's just fate
    but i want you to know
     
     
     
    i am so glad we made it, i just wish if we kept it

    Sick of it all

    "Sick Of It All"

    Are the sins getting staler
    Does every moment move past you
    Or does it feel like forever
    And shouldn't you be laughing too?

    Take a look how they found you
    Take a look what they've done to you now
    What was it they wanted
    Sullen and haunted?
    If only you saw it coming

    [Chorus:]
    How far down would you fall
    If you never came up again?
    'Cause you're so sick of it all
    And you want to change everything
    Just how deep would you go
    To see through it all?

    If you could consume her
    Would you say you were finding your way out?
    Is anything coming clearer
    Smashing your mirror?
    Still you can see you're guilty

    [Chorus]

    Coming closer my composure
    Turning inside out in her
    Calling home all alone
    You can call I won't answer
    Any question in my head
    Remains until you feel the same
    Never telling how I felt is all I ever cared about

    How far down would you fall
    If you never came up again?
    'Cause you're so sick of it all
    And you want to change everything
    Someone somewhere should know
    If you wanna come back around
    Just how deep would you go
    To see through it all?
    To see through it all
    To see through it all
    It all...
    It all...

    say you're sorry

    You make a mistake, it is ok we all do

    If you come and say you’re sorry, I’ll immediately forgive you

     

    But no you don’t, you blame it on me

    I take it easy because I love thee

     

    Every time you do something wrong

    I come and talk to you

    Open-mindedly willing to listen

    Searching for excuses for what you do

     

    However, you don’t give me the chance

    You just start the fight

     

    Accusing me of things not worth mentioning

    But I act calmly, and call of the night

     

    I stand up for myself to defend

    Proving I’m innocent from all the guilt

     

    And so I forget the mistake you did

    I come to apologize for what I said might hurt

     

    This is your way of getting away with it

    Not caring for how bad I felt

     

    You’re not strong enough to admit your mistakes

    I take all the blame, and you think you are smart in that case

     

    But sometimes I wonder, for how long it will last

    Me taking all the blame and you forgetting all the past

     

    ‘Cause I am truly tired and sick

    I never get my rights

    I give and give…

    Not waiting for return

    But some appreciation and gratefulness

    Is what I really seek

     

    This time I’ll talk out loud

    I’ll speak my mind and clear the cloud

     

    I am not that naïve girl who apologizes for your fault

    My patience has limits, and to its end, my patience you brought

     

    I am giving you the chance, to come and ask my forgiveness

    You know well you are mistaken, not need for any witness

     

    When that happens, you are welcome again

    I’ll give you back my love, but this time with gain

     

    Until that time, don’t take to me

    Have sometime by yourself and recall your memory

     

    And if you won’t do that, hence I guess it’s the end

    It was a nice time dear, good luck with that head

     

    The choice is yours, take your time

    I am not on a hurry. Just quit that crime

     

    For now I will leave you, I am going to miss you though

    Don’t forget to write me, and let my world with you glow

    Savoir aimer

    A song that typically describes me 2day

     

    Florent Pagny & Souad Massi

    Savoir Aimer

    Savoir sourire,
    À une inconnue qui passe,
    N'en garder aucune trace,
    Sinon celle du plaisir
    Savoir aimer
    Sans rien attendre en retour,
    Ni égard, ni grand amour,
    Pas même l'espoir d'être aimé,

    {Refrain:}
    Mais savoir donner,
    Donner sans reprendre,
    Ne rien faire qu'apprendre
    Apprendre à aimer,
    Aimer sans attendre,
    Aimer à tout prendre,
    Apprendre à sourire,
    Rien que pour le geste,
    Sans vouloir le reste
    Et apprendre à Vivre
    Et s'en aller.

    Savoir attendre,
    Goûter à ce plein bonheur
    Qu'on vous donne comme par erreur,
    Tant on ne l'attendait plus.
    Se voir y croire
    pour tromper la peur du vide
    Ancrée comme autant de rides
    Qui ternissent les miroirs

    {Refrain}

    Savoir souffrir
    En silence, sans murmure,
    Ni défense ni armure
    Souffrir à vouloir mourir
    Et se relever
    Comme on renaît de ses cendres,
    Avec tant d'amour à revendre
    Qu'on tire un trait sur le passé.

    {Refrain}

    Apprendre à rêver
    À rêver pour deux,
    Rien qu'en fermant les yeux,
    Et savoir donner
    Donner sans rature
    Ni demi-mesure
    Apprendre à rester.
    Vouloir jusqu'au bout
    Rester malgré tout,
    Apprendre à aimer,
    Et s'en aller,
    Et s'en aller...

    Lost

     

    I am so lonely, so lonely

    It’s 3:14 am

    And I just feel am all by myself

    I feel like crying

    I have so many people in my life

    Friends who are available the moment I need them

    But the specific person I need is not present

    Am always that way

    With the wrong person

    I feel so helpless

    Am constantly making mistakes

    And I know that they are mistakes

    And I so wish to stop them

    But I just donnu how

    What’s the way to stop and do the right thing

    I thought getting back to college and being busy would make things ok

    But that’s not me

    I am not used to ignoring my feelings and just get busy with anything else

    I always looked deep inside me before looking forward

    Now how could I look forward for better days when I feely dusty inside

     I do feel dusty inside

    Have u ever experienced that feeling before?

    I can only tell u it’s anything but ok

    I need some peace of mind and heart

    I have problems that I donnu how to deal with

    And friends doesn’t seem to help, but they do listen

     

    I went to get my coffee

    I have to start getting dressed at 6:30 so I realized the only way for it is my xx-l mug filled with hot coffee. The one my mum bought for me…I miss her

    Across the hall I met my bro; he got up and switched on the tv

    Although all he said was “tea plz” I felt alive again

    I don’t feel lost or lonely or any of those any more

    We don’t communicate much

    But his presence makes me feel alright

    Whenever he did something annoying I just wished if he would travel somewhere and leave me alone

    But now I regret that..

    I’ll take him with his little annoying habits am ok with that.

    Now what?

    What’s inside???

    I really really donnu

    For the 1st time of my life I stand helpless donnu what to do

    Wether listening to my heart or mind,

    Or none but my instinct

    I don’t wanna break hearts or confuse minds

    I just want some peace

    some warmness

    I wish if I found that unique irreplacable

    Who could give me exactly what I want

    And knows what I need even b4 I say it

    Some1 who a relationship with wouldn’t feel weird or wrong or awkward

    Just warm and so right

    Some1 I feel peaceful with, only him and no1 else around

    No other irritating factors to the relationship

    So hard to find??

    I don’t know

    But I always considered myself as a “lucky person”

    For what I had

    Is it the one thing  I lack

    U  can’t have everything right?

    But who said I do

    I am looking for some1

    Between the faces

    Among the streets

    Listening to all

    Reading and sharing

    Looking for some1

    He doesn’t have to be a lover

    As a matter of fact it could be “she”

    A friend…

    A sister…

    A mother..

    A brother…

    A father…

    A mate…

    Whatever it is

    Just that 1 person who knows all about me

    My soulmate may be

    How I define soulmate??

    A soulmate is not just some1 who loves the same music and drinks you love, but some1 who can just dig deep inside you and clean away all the dust.

    Mmmm

    I want a “complete” person

    A complete person for me

    Complete from my point of view

    Complete and not “perfect”

    Where can I find u?

    Will I ever find u?

    I am ready to look and wait

    But I need a promise that you will eventually appear in my life and save me

    Cuz right now I feel so lonely and lost

    Sometimes I just wish if I could have a magic stick and clear all the mistakes I did

    Clear all the bad moments and memories in my history

    Cuz damn it they r still hurting me

    I still feel weak and naïve when I remember them

    Or cruel and cold blooded

     I wanna fly away

    To some other world

    I wish if I could start over from the beginning

    Start new

     I know what people say

    No one can go back so start now

    But that won’t help

    I can say: starting now I will try to be what I always wanted to be, I’ll hurt no one and won’t make mistakes and will forgive people and will be a good person

    But the history still irritates me

    I still have visions and memories that tear me up

    Besides

    I can’t start a new life without ending the previous one

    What about the people I know

    What about the things I am involved in

    What about the promises I made and have to fulfill

    What about the dreams I started to achieve

    See

    You can never start new

    But you could only move from good to better, or from bad to worse

    Am I “good” or “bad”

    None of the above !

    I am “ordinary”

    Cant tell am good

    Can’t tell am bad

    Just ordinary

    It sux

    I just feel so numb and lost

    Days of my life

    It's almost over
    that so called"vacation"
    but c'mon
    i really enjoyed it
    i really had fun
    i hated myself somedays when i spent it in the house alone
    but that was very few
    for the very first time i get a gr8 chance to hang out aloooot in egypt , cairo specifecly
    i thought a summer in cairo would suck but that's not true at all it's joyful and exciting
    i loved my life in this vacation i loved my friends and i got the chance to learn new things about life and people
    got that chance to relax upon my rules
    got the chance to release the passion and unleash the energy inside
    got the chance to relief and have a long break to prepare for "better days" God willing
    got the chance to read much and sleep with a book over my head that's not medical i was missing that
    got the chance to forget about all the matters and problems and seize my moments living them to the fullest
    "I just wanna scream and lose control, throw my hands up and let it go, forget about everything and run awaaaay, yeaaah"
    in this vacation i had so much fun even being alone all by myself singing loudly and dancing at every place am alone in even if in public
    got the chance to live, love, laugh and learn
    it was such a wonderful time
    i spent good times with my family specially my sister
    learnd more about myself and loved myself even more
    fixed some of the mess i caused and repaired some of the damages in me
    i finally found peace
    and i learned driving, almost which was an amazing experince btw i never thought i would dare to
    Gracefuly this summer is ending by the start of Ramadan isA "Allahoma bale3'na ramadan"
    there's absolutely nothing i regret about this vacation
    i did plenty of mistakes though but i have learned much instead and i guess i am ready to pay for what it i did and ready to take all the blame
     i broke free and found myself in everylittle thing i did
    and right now i am full of hope and eagerness for the near future and the coming days
    with gr8 faith that the best is yet to come in sha2 Allah
    i have been a young nasty crazy gurl this vac., and i enjoyed it
    It's about time i returned to the old wise sane girl cuz the fun is over now and let's get serious
    i guess i deserved a little treat after the pressure and stress i have been under
    before this thing even starts i was counting on it much much u have no idea
    and i thank God it went so well and i hope everything is undercontrol yet
    I got much to say really but i will be back

    Shattered

    It’s completely mind breaking

    When you notice that every little or big thing you do for people is returned to you the exact same way you did it

    May be the goods are returned double folded

    But they all return

    Is it the same with u all?

    Or it’s just me

    While trashing a friend and totally ignoring him for no obvious reason

    I am being ignored

    Looking back and wishing that I didn’t ignore him

    It’s my entire fault at the first place.

    I am changed

    Dramatically

    I’ve always detested people who cared about the looks and social views such as the standard of living, the money, the positions and so, and thought that personality is everything and what really counts.

    And I look at myself now and find myself one o those people

    I am suddenly on of those I hate

    And I try to stop myself

    But I just can’t

    May be cuz everybody around me is so

    And I am the only one with those morals

    I just seem to disregard them

    And be like everyone else

    Even though I know that these morals are the right to chose

    But are they right to stick to and move on with???

    Not in such a world

    Not in such a place

    I always thought that those people are shallow and superficial

    Well…

    I don’t judge people by looks if that what u understood

    But I consider it much

    Not with all people in all situations

    I know that a true friend is a true friend regardless to the way he looks or his social standard

    But the devil in me

    That I can’t control all the time

    It’s really annoying

     

    • something I hate about myself: walking away with no reason or excuse

    i just seem to walk away without any previous statement

    is it right to just trash a friend because you only thought he is boring

    Or not amusing any more

    Or just walk away from some one who really loved you

    And you don’t really know why

    is it because you are afraid of being committed and responsible

    or because I can’t face them

    I can’t tell them what I really feel

    I hate myself for that

    I hate myself for it I do I do I do.

    Ironically I get trashed the way I trashed my friend

    Or get valued the way I valued my lover

    And when It happens to me

    I don’t seem amazed or astonished or feel unjustified

    I just remember how I deserve this

    And cry for myself and for what I did to others

    If I could just go back and fix everything

    Or start from now and be fair and caring and wise

    And control that devil inside of me

    To stop hating myself for it and love maha back

    Days have changed me a lot

    Again I wish if I could return to that young innocent gurl who’s open to life and expects people to be angelic as she is!

    Unluckily she has no place in this world

    I never imagined I will give up my morals so fast

    I thought I would hang on longer

    But what’s the difference any way

    It better happens now than waiting for it (wo2oo3 el bala wala entezaro)

    Right now my only wish is to get them back after losing them

    And pass this stage safely cuz I can’t take it anymore.

    نحو الحضارة

     
     
    نحــو الحضــارة
    الجزء الثاني: المنظومـة
    مشكلة رحلتنا نحو حضارة القرن الحادى والعشرين، هى أنه ليست لدينا منظومة واضحة، تحدِّد ما ينبغى أن نكتسبه أو نصبح عليه، خلال السنوات العشر القادمة.. كبداية
    فحتى عندما نطمح إلى التطوّر، نعمل بصورة عشوائية غير منتظمة، ونتخبط فى بعضنا البعض، وتتداخل أهدافنا، وقيمنا، وطموحاتنا.. بل ومنظوماتنا أيضاً
    والطريق إلى الحضارة لا يمكن أن يبدأ، إلا لو وضعنا نصب أعيننا منظومة واضحة، وخريطة مفصلة، وقيم بعينها، لابد وأن نكتسبها، ونكسبها للأجيال الجديدة منا، على أمل أن يكون هذا نواة لحاقنا بالعصر الحديث، واستعادة ما كنا عليه يوماً، كخير أمة أخرجت للناس
    *******
    البعض ينظر إلى الأمور ببساطة، فيشير إلى أننا لو أمرنا بالمعروف، ونهينا عن المنكر، سنصح خير أمة أخرجت للناس، وهذا قول حق يراد به باطل
    فصحيح أن الأمر بالمعروف والنهى عن المنكر هما الأساس، ولكن حتى السعى إليهما يحتاج إلى قيم واضحة، تنير الطريق، وتجعلنا على يقين من المعروف، الذى نأمر به، والمنكر الذى ننهى عنه، خاصة وأن الأمر ينقسم بين محكمات، لن نبذل جهداً كبيراً، للاتفاق عليها وفهمها، ومتشابهات كانت وما زالت ترهقنا وتبث فينا بذور الشقاق والخلاف
    البداية إذن لابد وأن تكون عبر استرجاع وبناء قيم أساسية، تقوم عليها أية حضارة
    قيم دينية، وثقافية، واقتصادية، واجتماعية، وعلمية، وحتى رياضية
    قيم تهزم عصبيتنا، وتعنتاتنا، وتبث فى عقولنا فكراً جديداً، شديد الإيمان - عن علم - بكل قيمه، شديد الوثوق فى دينه ومبادئه، شديد القوة فى التمسك بهما والدفاع عنهما
    واستعراض تلك القيم يضعنا دوماً أمام معادلة صعبة، بل شديدة الصعوبة والتعقيد
    فبأي منها نبدأ؟
    أية قيمة ينبغى أن تبنى عليها باقى القيم؟
    وهل ينبغى أن نعمل عليها كلها فى آن واحد، أم أنه هناك ترتيب جيد، يحدِّد البداية والنهاية، والسبل التى ينبغى اتباعها، لاكتساب تلك القيم كلها؟

    أسئلة عديدة، سينهمك معظمنا فيها، وسنخوض عشرات النقاشات والخلافات حولها، حتى ننسى مع الوقت الهدف الأساسى منها، وأنها كانت بداية طريق الحضارة
    دعونا نتفق إذن على أن الترتيب هنا غير هام
    فليبدأ كل منا بما يستطيعه
    وبما يناسبه
    *******
    التاجر منا مثلاً، عليه أن يبدأ بالتمسك بالقيم الاقتصادية والمالية، فلا يغش فى السلع، ولا يسرق فى الميزان، ولا يستغل حاجة الناس إلى ما يبيع، ولا يسعى لثراء فاحش، على حساب الفقراء والمساكين، وليمنح ما لديه من وظائف لمن يحتاجها، وينفق ما رزقه الله سبحانه وتعالى فيما يفيده، ويفيد البلاد والعباد، على ألا ينسى أبداً أن من ماله حق معلوم، للسائل والمحروم
    وعلى الرغم مما تبدو عليه هذه القيم السابقة، من وضوح وبساطة، فليسأل كل من يشتغل بالتجارة منا نفسه، كما يطبق منها عملياً؟!.. لو أننا صادقين منصفين، لاعترفنا بأننا لا ننفد أو نطبق حتى خمسين فى المائة منها
    هذا لأن النفس أمارة بالسوء، ولأننا نفتقر إلى منظومة واضحة، يلقنوننا إياها فى طفولتنا، ويؤكدون طوال الوقت أن تنفيذها وتطبيقها لا يحسنان آخرتنا وحدها، ولكن دنيانا أيضاً
    فلو أننا نثق فى أن كل تاجر لا يغش ولا يسرق، وأن أرباحه حلال، لا مغالاة فيها، لكثر إقبالنا على سلعه، ويشجعه هذا على مزيد من الاستثمار، وربما على الإنتاج أيضاً
    *******
    ولو أن لدنيا قيم اجتماعية، تحترم العمل، بكافة صوره، وتقدِّم مجهود الفرد، مهما كان شأنه، لاختلفت الصورة فى مجتمعاتنا، ولتحولنا إلى خلية نحل نشطة، ولتحسنت علاقات كل منا بالآخر، ولتوافرت فرص عمل أكثر، مما ينعكس حتماً على الإنتاج، وبالتالى على الاستهلاك
    وهكذا يصبح لدينا اقتصاد قوى
    احترام قيمة العمل وحدها، كافية لصنع ذلك المجتمع الاقتصادى المتقدِّم، الذى يحصل فيه كل إنسان على مقابل عمله، ويجيد تنظيم إنفاقه، فيسير الكل فى منظومة واضحة مرتبة
    وعندما ينتعش الاقتصاد، تنتعش معه كل أوجه الحياة الأخرى.. فالاقتصاديون سيولون اهتماماً كبيراً للعلم، وسيمولون الأبحاث، ويمنحون المنح الدراسية، وينشئون المدارس والمعاهد والكليات والجامعات؛ لأن أبحاثها تساعد مصانعهم، ومشروعاتهم، وتخفض تكاليف إنتاجهم، وتضاعف أرباحهم
    *******
    ومع الاهتمام بالعلم، ستتطوَّر حتماً القيم الثقافية، ويبدأ المجتمع فى احترام العلماء والمثقفين، بأكثر مما يحترم المطربين والممثلين، وسيقدم الجميع على المعرفة، باعتبارها سبيل إلى التقدم والرقى، وستظهر نظريات تربية جديدة، فى علم الاقتصاد، والاجتماع، والسياسة
    وربما يصبح العرب مرة أخرى منارة العلم والمعرفة، إذا ما أدركوا أنهم كانوا يوماً كذلك
    وانتشار الثقافة أمر هام وحتمى وحيوى للغاية، فى أى مجتمع يطمح إلى الحضارة والرقى والتقدُّم، فيها تقل العصبيات، والعنصريات، والتعنتات، والتشبث بالآراء، بغض النظر عن منطقها
    فالثقافة تساعدنا على الانفتاح على الآخر، ومعرفته، وفهم، واستيعاب طريقة تفكيره
    وليس المقصود هنا هو الاقتناع به، أو الاتفاق معه، بل قد تكون معرفته سبباً للاختلاف معه، ومعارضته، وتأكيد مسارنا المخالف له أكثر وأكثر
    ولكننا على الأقل لن نحاربه، لمجرد أنه يختلف عنا فى نظرته للأمور.. فالاختلاف أمر لا صلة له قط بالخلاف
    *******
    أكبر مثال على هذا هو الرجل والمرأة
    إنهما كائنان مختلفان، ولكنهما ليسا على خلاف
    كل منهما له شخصيته، وأسلوبه، وأفكاره، ولكن كل منهما يفهم ويستوعب وجود الآخر، ويدرك أنه ضرورة لاستمرار الحياة
    هذا هو الحال بالضبط، بالنسبة للآخر، أياً كان
    وهذا ما تمنحنا إياه القيم الثقافية، وما تدفعنا نحوه، عندما تعمل على توسيع أفقنا، وتحديد فكرنا، ودفعنا للتفكير فيما هو خارج حدودنا المألوفة
    فكل منا يميل دوماً إلى ما ألفه من حدود، باعتبار أن الناس أعداء لا يجهلون
    وما لم يعتادوه أيضاً
    ومنظومة القيم، كما يبدو واضحاً، أشبه بسبحة متكاملة، فما أن تبدأ فى قيمة من قيمها، إلا وتكشف أنها تقودك، دون أن تدرك، إلى مجموعة القيم الأخرى
    فكما قلنا، القيم الاقتصادية تجذبك إلى القيم الاجتماعية، وتلك تقودك إلى القيم العلمية، فالثقافية، وهكذا
    *******
    ومن الطبيعى لكل مجتمع علمى مثقف، أن يتجه بتلقائية إلى الرياضة، كوسيلة لبناء الجسم والعقل
    وحتى فى الرياضة، لابد أن تتشبث بمجموعة واضحة من القيم الحضارية المتقدمة
    فلا ينبغى مثلاً أن نتعصب لفريق دون آخر، أو نثور ونضغب عند الهزيمة، ونتبادل السباب والشتام، لمجرد أننا نختلف فى الملعب
    وهذه أيضاً قيم رياضية ثقافية
    فالثقافة ستجعلنا ندرك أن أية رياضة فى الدنيا هى لعبة تنافسية، لابد وأن يربح فيها أحد فريقين، بناءً على عوامل شتى، لا يمكن أن تتآزر لصالح جانب دون الآخر دوماً
    هناك حتماً غالب ومغلوب.. منتصر ومهزوم.. فائز وخاسر
    الثقافة تجعلنا ندرك أن النتيجة ليست هى الفيصل
    المهم أسلوب الأداء، والجهد، والتيقن من أن كل فريق قد بذل كل ما بوسعه
    فالبشر فقط يسعون، وليس بيدهم إدراك النجاح
    قيمة أخرى، لابد وأن نحرص عليها، ونسعى لاكتسابها، لو أردنا بالفعل أن نخوض رحلتنا
    نحو الحضارة
    *******
    الطريق إلى الحضارة إذن مفروش بالقيم
    كل القيم..
    وكلها بأهمية واحدة، وقوة واحدة، وترتيب واحد، لا فرق بين قيمة أو أخرى، سوى قدرتك على التمسك بها، والمجال الذى يسمح لك باستخدامها واستغلالها
    ولكن الواقع أن هناك قيمة بعينها، لابد وأن يبدأ بها كل شئ
    قيمة لم نذكرها فى كل القيم السابقة، ولكنها المفتاح الرئيسى لها جميعاً
    قيمة النظام والتنظيم
    ولهذا حديث آخر

    What's right and what's not?

    couple of weeks a go i watched in a movie:
    a scientist who was doing an expirement on a human being
    what was the experiment????
    he locked him in a room
    and left him with no clue about the time
    there's no light coming in so he doesn't know if it's morning or night
    he can't hear the prayer in a nearby mosque so he can't guess what time it is
    the guy was going nuts
    really nuts
    bouncing on the floor
    hitting his head against the wall and shouting loudly
    just because he didn't know how long has he been locked in there
    he  didn't know what time was it
    and suddenly the man settled down
    he was lying peacefuly on his bed
    why??
    cuz some1 sneaked and gave him a watch,,, and the man finally found peace
    --------
    at that moment i thought that this could be the worst feeling
    when you absolutely no clue what the time is
    fokdank el e7sas bl wa2t
    it's horrible
    i tried it b4
    not for too long
    but it definetly felt too bad
    might be the worst feeling ever
    ---------------------------------------------------------
    at this moment another point pops upto my mind
    another one of the really bad feelings that you never wish to experince
    it's : when you no longer know what's right and what's not!
    when you wana do something but you are not really sure which is right
    it'll propably take u a long period of thinking b4 reaching that point
    when you're mind is twisted o kol 7aga d7'lt f ba3d
    and when you lose your common sense
    when you are in a situation but you don't know is it better to just shut up or better to defend
    this is just a simple example
    i am not in the right mood for writing right now that's why i wouldn't expect you to understand what am trying to say
    but what i am talking about is a serious issue
    think about it
    and i will try to explain more later

    Stupid GiRLZzzzzzZ

    Yea , yea

    Not all of them for sure

    Despite the fact that I am a gurl myself “yes I am Tongue out

    I still don’t get some gurls’ actions or reactions

    I’ll prove it to you:

    At grade 9 (3rd prep.)

    I was here in Egypt in a nearby school

    At that age all I was thinking about the college I should join later on and which department (I wanted to be an engineer at that time until a little gurl saw me with a beige coat and asked me: are you a doctor??? And I replied and said "if God wills, why not!!!”

    Anyway,,

    My classmate nada was thinking how to lose some more weight to look better

    My frnd samira wanted to be popular and mean at the same time

    The surprise was “Wala’a”

    In a computer class someday(that was our fun time computer and tafseer classes, and don’t ask me what tafseer Is cuz I don’t even know about it”

    So…

    Wala’a suddenly started crying and weeping loudly with tears and so

    She was sitting right behind me so I turned back and wondered

    What’s up Wala’a

    She said:

    “My hair is so short, and I don’t know what “linen” is!!!

    I WAS ASTONISHED

    The gurls has been crying till we thought she is deeply heart broken

    But she only thought her hair was too short!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    And her hair wasn’t short by the way                                      

    It was shoulder length

    Or quite below

    If it would make any difference to you

    She was BLONDE

    :D:D

    No offense

    Sorry wala’a but that was too stupid.
