Let's think of life as if it's a great open buffet in which food and drinks are abundant
Let's think of it as it's a buffet but with limited food and drinks and try to visualize people's behavior in both situations
pretty different for sure!!
For some people Life is with very limited resources and the gain of the other implies their loss, that's why they strive in finding ways to get all the goodies for themselves or in some extreme cases -and they are very common by the way- they may hate the gain of the other even if that wouldn't affect them at all or outside the realm of their gain!!
And that's one of the tragedies of life actually, if we tried to project this theory on a larger scale, we'll find that most of the wars are over the earth's commodities such as oil and mineral resources
Aren't humans functional enough to reach compromises and think in a win-win way, yeah but sometimes greed blinds us !!
Sometimes focusing in the little imperfections may destroy the beauty of the whole painting, while I think that deep appreciation and understanding of life's little imperfections is a crucial element on leading a happy-after-all life!
My advice in that aspect is that We should NOT neglect these little things but we should ACCEPT them as GIVENS in our lives ...

بالالوان الطبيعية
The movie has a message, a strong one but the medium by which the movie tries to deliver it is really filthy and cheesy, The dialogue was so redundant at some points, rude at other points specially when the protagonist was talking to God
The movie's events could be summed up in just 30 minutes at most without any damage to the main idea
The thing that really annoys me that some people will just love the movie for the sake of being different, I really hate this kind of faking, just to show that they are sophisticated and we're motherfuckers and not eligible to watch this kind of movies
and now any director uses a vulgar dialogue with God is called cultured, a movie dealing with sex very explicitly is sophisticated what the HECK!!
I am not a cinema industry professional i am a mere viewer and I really like to watch a movie tackling an important issue in a decent way as the real talent of a director lies on how can he use implicit ways to deliver the same very message instead of using dirty scenes and dialogues, that "Subtlety" and it's a very clever technique from my own point of view
My favorite scene in the movie is when there was conflicting dialogues a muslim man calls for the Azan and the a christian man calling for prayer and different music surrounds and the protagonist is confused in between, Because that's how real life is? NOISE and you gotta find a track that you are really passionate about and to do things YOUR WAY wee c ya

My father
I don't know how to put this
how to translate my feelings towards my father into mundane words
Sometimes just thinking about his life and how unlucky he was makes me on the verge of tears
Being unable to find a job in KSA due to some political reasons back then and the death of his fiancee which gave him a stroke followed by paralysis were sufficient to divert the course of his life
He's a symbol of sacrifice and dedication
He's a serious yet very kind and passionate person
I never heard him singing or watching a movie
before retirement his day was about work and prayers and preaching us
His way was gentle and he never forced us to do anything but he always tried to persuade us
I owe him any success I've achieved -If I've achieved any-
I remember when I was Young most of the time I was afraid that he dies and leaves me
I was very clung to him
And now he's senile and weary
I can't bear watching him suffering from his senility
Maybe my father is not my role-model
Maybe sometimes we disagree
But something remains
I hold for this man a great amount of respect and appreciation
I love him so much
I wish I can repay
But how can I?
He's the reason why I love mathematics and why I entered my college
He's the reason why I am good in English, I will never forget the small notebook that he used to explain to me the basics of grammar and new vocabulary
I am really speechless
I really love this man

The philosophy of "Thanking God in crises"
I was so eager to get that internship, not only because of the LE 650 but because this company one of the largest corporates working in the energy sector all over the world
I could see that this opportunity would be a transition phase that shifts me so high as the division that I was about to have a training at is the one that I need to join in the future beside I'd have built firm relationships with the engineers there ...
And when I read the regret mail I was so disappointed but I thanked God ..
But "Thanks God" isn't just a word to say just to get the grace
It should be an inner persuasion that God would grant you the best
You should fill your heart with satisfaction as it's not about the verbal phrase it's about the way your soul reacts to the situation
Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) said "عجبا من امر المسلم امره كله خيرا اذا اصابتة سراء شكر فكان خيرا له و ان اصابتة ضراء صبر فكان خيرا له"
Sorrow won't get the opportunity back
You should learn from it
It needs long-term practice to be able to get fully satisfied in crises
and finally just to remember
anyway the feedback was:
1-English proficiency
2-Presentation skills

Rules for Renegades
"Life is a state of mind"
sometimes I feel like I need to grab you from your hand and run away till we reach a place we can call safe
Why do I have this great disbelief in you or myself?
Why do so small irrelevant trivia alter my mood?
Why am I that Vulnerable?
I need to build fences
strengthen myself
Find my passion
It may take years
or even a life time
but as you've read somewhere before
the thrill is in the journey itself
You're life is a total unique path
and to reach your desired destination
the one that your soul yearns to
you should accept the fact that you are an outcast
don't compare yourself with anyone
don't compare your life with anybody's life
Do things that fit you the most
wear things that you like the most
Run
Read
Mate
Draw
Write
Pray
Sleep
Laugh
Cry
Love
Fly
Fall down
Have the will to rise again
Rise
Fall
Laugh in between
Do it your way
Do it your way
Do it your way
Have the courage to do it your way
Please read this post more often

Believe in me
I know you've waited for so long
Believe in me
Sometimes The Weak become the Strong
Believe in me
Sometime life's not what it seems
Believe in me
Cause i was born for chasing dreams
