HAPPY NEW YEAR

a happy new year to you all my dear readers 

as this new year unfolds a lot unfolds with it

many hidden opportunities 

and many hidden potentials 

all you need to do is just GO GRAB THEM 

nothing in life comes without some sort of effort 

MAKE THIS YEAR YOUR YEAR

and go get it =D 

PS: i will be unavailable for quite some time since i will be busy 

with final exams and other stuff 

however do stay tuned i will be available afterwards =)

the yearly analysis

with only few days left for the new year 

i believe we should all sit and give ourselves some time 

and try to reflect on what have we done this year 

achievements?

goals that were not achieved?

new people you have met?

people you have hurt?

people that you have lost contact with?

lessons learn?

hobbies and new experiments?

change in behavior? 

or even if you noticed a new behavior?

all those and even more questions should be examined 

and to an answer for them is a crucial thing 

after doing that examine yourself and your goals in life 

or even where you are situated in it !

think about all that you have emptied on the paper 

and then think ahead for the new year

yeah that may sound "cliché" 

the whole issue of "the new year resolution" 

but it pays to take a pause and look at the bigger picture

just for once 

and who knows it may be an "Aha moment" 

and so i say dear readers

if you have not done this ever try it 

if you have a strong sense of direction 

where you are headed and where you are going

it still won't hurt to see if you are still in the right direction

of achieving life goals 

an remember no achievement is too small 

for you can aim low and achieve

rather than aiming high and not even achieving or trying ! 

(PS: i will share with you my yearly analysis pretty soon 

on my "Tumblr" website)

realizing realization

there is an Arabic proverb that says 

إن كنت تعلم فتلك مصيبة وإن كنت لا تعلم فالمصيبة أعظم

translation 

if you knew that is a problem and if you did not know then that is a bigger problem

and that is true for the latter 

we tend to realize things (generally speaking) Late !

and when we do its either too late or just too awkward to 

repair what ever damage that has been done 

that is true that we do realize late but

we need to have the power to realize realization

it sounds confusing i know (LOL) 

but the main idea is that we sometimes 

need to sit all alone and try to think things (on a bigger scale) 

or from a more broader point of view 

then after that you will "REALIZE" 

it may sound like a topic that people talked about before

but truth of the matter is that

we don't realize until its to late 

which ever part of the equation you are in (dear reader)

you need to gain the power to realize realization

because only then you would realize

whether you are on the right side of the equation

or you are on the wrong side 

nonetheless 

 which ever side you are on

any problem/ issue/ disagreement 

can be solved so long as you can "REALIZE REALIZATION"

stop being dramatic ... like URGH

a conversation i had the other day with a friend 

it made me realize that sometimes YES there are time we tend to be "dramatic"

sometimes we just tend to be overtly expressive of our emotions and/or feelings

our first point of discussion here is this point 

"Emotions" 

i have read in an article and i quote from it :

"the expression of emotion which like communication could be covert and unconscious or overt and conscious or deliberate. Emotional expressions vary according to individuals and some are more expressive and dramatic than others"

of course this statement summed up most of the ideas 

of emotions and how people

either chose to express or chose to bottle up

now that we explain that point we move onto the other point

which concerns the latter of the above statement 

YES those who "are expressive" 

(guilty as charged ...)

sometimes (also from the above statement) 

we tend to express emotions unknowingly or knowingly !

and most of the time the other person who is getting what we express

perceives it the wrong way !

(for example complaining to much or just being plain dramatic) 

it happens mostly with "females" since they are more in synced with their feelings

however "males" are no exception since expression may differ ! 

but the main idea is simple 

some of us are overtly expressive of their feelings

some of us are not

some of us UNDERSTANDS the fact that its not complain 

its just expression of feeling and some of us just cannot !

some of us need to know and understand

 that its just plain expression of feelings

not constant whining or display of drama 

AND LETS NOT IGNORE  THESE IDEAS TOO

some of us need to channel those expressions 

in a very healthy way

some of us need to try and learn proper wording 

in trying to express feelings ... etc

keep in mind dear readers and random viewers and passers

the next time a friend of yours (complains,whines,is being plain dramatic)

maybe they just need a break and they are just venting out their emotions

the least you can do is to try and figure out why they are doing what they are doing

then maybe you would understand it in from their own shoes !

then you are truly a good friend/listener/confidant to them =) 

forgiving and forgetting

do you remember how conflict takes place 

when we were young?

typically at school with other mates, when you have a disagreement

with a mate during class, but then you forgive and forget right about recess time !

it is just amazing how young ones (children) handle conflict

(of course not all children ... some resolve conflict through fight LOL)

but mainly lets focus on that idea that we mentioned above 

as children we disagree during class but we share our packed lunches during recess

its just amazing how we as "ADULTS" and young adolescents

need to learn about the power of forgiving and forgetting

and let those people back in into our lives

but as we grow up ... our outlook on things came a long way 

since we were toddlers 

things that we see as grownups differ a lot from what we saw as children

(What ever the situation may be) 

and how we sometimes choose not to forgive a person (out of vain sometimes)

 and maybe reflect on the idea whether to forgive that person or not 

(for what ever reason it may be)

in my opinion (and you are free to disagree with me or to agree)

we really do need to look back at those times 

and really try to learn from them 

no matter how big the problem is , it never is a reason to let someone out of your life

and / or your heart !

(of course depending on the situation)

but the main idea of this post is to actually learn to forgive and forget and 

to reflect on those times when we just forgave each other !

you never know ... life is short and it may be too late ! 

  

Karma !

i made a vlog post some time ago talking about 

Forgiving and forgetting and also granting forgiveness 

its found in this Link

now that i look back on to this video i realize a lot of lessons came to me

and i did not know 

a lot has crossed my mind and it was all because of that video.

ever thought of the reason why you tend to have bad things?

well many points explain this issue 

but lets not drift away from the main topic that we are discussing !

we do things in life ... some may be right things, some may be wrong, and lets admit to it

it happens because sometimes we are just not immune to errors or mistakes ( i am no exception to that)

so mainly bad things happen 

the good news is ... we may have the chance to correct those mistakes or errors

THE BAD NEWS IS ... what goes around comes around "karma" 

However if you" dear reader" have taken the correct choice/path to the mistake

 "what ever the cause and reason that sounds logical in your mind"

you are off the hook 

how ever make the wrong choice/decision ... and karma is going to slap you in the face !

karma will chose to either SLAP the face or to just PET the back 

and what ever you may want to think or believe in , but this happens! 

So either way Karma will come and visit you it will either SLAP or PET ! 

what do you want to choose ?

its all a matter of time and realization, but if you lack the latter ... then god help you !

as long as you keep that thought in your mind you will know how to go through life 

note: i personally feel sorry for those who put them selves in positions where they actually let 

karma slap them in the face ! i mean  COME ON ! 

"life really is not worth it"

no one wants that to happen
