On Life

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
