start all over again ?

its one of those times in life

when you start to look around and hope to find that window of opportunity
only to find it shutting down at your face !

let me share with you all a personal story which happened not so long ago
(just a few days ago as a matter of fact)

i have been looking around 
trying to find a scholarship of some sort
or an internship 

any opportunity which is considered to be a challenge
and a window to step out from 
what i would consider my comfort zone
and to head into another challenge in life

i did try to reach out and see for whatever opportunity 
i could reach out to
and of course
i got rejected since i did not meet up with the criteria of that opportunity

a friend of mine said the typical sentence 
" you should have taken things seriously" and " you should have worked hard"

unfortunately those do not work at the moment in time 
since i have fell into circumstances 

however that is what i am suppose to face 
you reach "Rock bottom" so to speak
and you try to look for a way out

yes you will fail at start
and you will face a number of difficulties along the way

and yes there will be (Hopefully) 
a light in the end of the tunnel 

which will take you out on that window of opportunity

so this is a message to you all 
from a very personal experience

Never Give up !
Because normally  you will find your self starting all over again
at any given point in life

lies nonsense and what goes in between

lately i have been bombarded with 
loads of articles and stuff that always challenges the mind
and tells you to think in a different fashion

surely one thing that most of us face now a days is 
(Bull$h!+)

the whole wad of cheap talk that goes around
and gets circulated a bit too much

i read an article recently 
in which talks about "nonsense" 
were it says that it can come from anyone
its no longer something for
-politicians 
-sales people
or who ever has something that is pushing hard to sell to others
it actually tells you that the people you think are good 
who don't sell you load of nonsense are the ones who could actually be the real criminals

"something to think about"

for example 
your parents!
or your teachers
or your supposedly good friend 

they too can be "Bs-ers" 
so to speak 

which again is a call for all of us to think about how things work in life
we are all fed certain ideas, thoughts, beliefs
which we take with us along the way as we grow up
we believe in them, and sometimes we choose to question them

its the latter part were we have to be doing 
to question things 
and question what we all know
for what we know is nothing compared to the vast knowledge
and all that is around and available in this life

we never know what is the truth until we choose to question it
and search for what could be the truth behind it 

in the end 
we all have to activate our brains 
and try to detect what is real from what is not !

detachment

every wondered how really the world works in?

i mean how sometimes you have to choose the "unconventional" way
in order to get things around

i have mentioned a number of times in past articles
how we human beings are "counter intuitive" creatures 

it also applies to how things go around in the world
with a more broader concept 

"detachment"
the opposite of attachment

lets do some simple explanations


being attached 
is when you are totally involved into something 
and you are so attached to whatever that thing is
and what ever that thing might result in
giving it attention, time, effort 

and the opposite "Detached"
is when you are indifferent towards the issue or the thing you are attached to,
literally not involved into the matter and not caring to what it could result in

of course not in a careless way "in regards to the latter point of the explanation"

the whole point is to learn that 
when you are attached yes you give attention, time and effort
and that you have an amount of holding on emotionally towards the thing that you are attached to
thus of course having a great deal of stress and emotional pain

as one is not aware of what might have been 
hoping for something that could have been

is happens when you fear of the future
from what it might bring 
of unwanted result 

its only when you let go of your fear 
you learn to accept what could come 
from the future
and embrace what it gives 
you learn then what is detachment

when you look at it 
its all about the laws of attraction 

the more you think about it
the less power you have over it
the more controlling it becomes over one self 
resulting in unwanted results 

however go the opposite way around
and you can see 
that its a matter of love vs. fear

just remember to do the following


- live and let be 
(you learn in time valuable lessons)


- resistance only creates resistance
(its like fighting fire with fire)


- have faith 
(it what keeps you go on)


- always be positive
(its a powerful force)

powerful positive mindset

Happy labor day 
Dedicated to all the hardworking people out there

who work hard to live decently 
i dedicate these simple words to you all 

we tend to look down on those people who work
in small jobs that sometimes we consider crappy 

but if it wasn't for them we surely would not be able to function properly 

moving on to the article 

the other day i was driven down with quite a lot of issues 
and i felt quite burdened 

i asked the help of a close friend 
who actually taught me a few things too

this friend always amazed me 
as we meet and talked 
he also started to talk and open up about his problems
and in the end of the conversation

it hit me ....

How can he maintain such a positive mindset 
something powerful i must add

no matter what you face in life

you see that he is maintaining that cool attitude 
and a very open mind and outlook towards his surroundings

the same thing goes to another situation i lived
coming from a very dear person who i love

they have conveyed to me some sad news
which in spite of it 

they kept quite an open attitude towards it
the whole time

it is amazing 
how someone can maintain that type of positive mindset
which can do anything 
and can achieve anything 

it is surely something that we all can learn

so lets do it today and try and be more positive
to gain a better outcome 
and a better perception on what we see

the greatest human experience (4)

its always amazing how it is
the human experience

how you meet with great people along the way
and learn quite a lot

i urge you all my dear readers 
to just take the chance and have a bite 
of how it is the human experience ~

back to the topic

i did mention above how it is amazing to find great people in your life
amazing people
how you get the chance to meet them
and have a great time with them 
having many experiences
feeling a lot of things 

a new lesson that i have learned 
in which i still think about till this minute 

do good things come to an end ?
the answer is still under research

but the story behind it goes as follows

have you ever fell in love ?
that it was so true 
that you live great moments with 

and you live day by day 
knowing how great it is 

and then you come to that day
that you knew it was coming
but never thought it would come so soon

yes my dear readers
i have fell in love
i have experienced it for what it is
i have tasted it 
i know how it feels 
i know how it goes

i knew that one day it may take a unknown turn
but i have never thought that the day would come so soon

i only have one thing to confess 
that i have no regrets what so ever

again we tend to forget that one lesson 

that our time is limited 
that we should make the best of what he have

and yes that is what i intend to do

but in the end of the day

i learn from that lesson
i grow stronger
i become a better (me)

and who knows 
we all know that it could be the end 
but we can make it the beginning 

and i hope you all learn as well from your own lessons
my dear readers

and grow strong 
and become a better (you)

what happened ?

well i chose this title for starters
because the nature of the situation that i saw was a bit 
confusing and rather interesting to share with you all 
it could be a situation some of you have went through

i leave the comments for you all to judge on this matter

so lets start ..... 

it happened as a family of 4 the father and three sons 
went for the usual "juma-Friday" prayers

and as they took one of the cars which belonged to the family
(incidentally they took the one which the younger son rides frequently)

the father noticed as he was going into the car how the car was in a bit
unclean he protested on this thing 
and as soon as the son (who rides the car) came in 
he started complaining on how the car is messy
and how it is not so clean 
and scolded the son for that

of course the son kept silent 
and all went well they family rode the car and started moving towards the Masjid

along the way the father kept on rambling and started shuffling cards

(shuffling cards as in started bringing irrelevant issues to the matter just because of the unclean car)

along with the card shuffling the father started talking badly (which was not accepted)

the son quickly protested on this matter 

and the issue died as soon as the protest was risen 

everyone kept silent all along the way ....

-----------------------------------

now after seeing this story (which was told by a friend of mine)

we see here many issues 

where do you begin with?

sometimes people get carried away with their emotions
and they do misbehave and talk badly

and sometimes it is ( as much as its not fair and really not acceptable) unfortunate
to see this example of how people badly just shuffle irrelevant issues just to 
scold people out and to get the chance to nail them 
when ever and where ever at any point 

it could also be a mistake when the son protested on how badly the father started talking

but the main point was how the car was unclean 

it was only a simple issue 
which could have been resolved 
without even scolding 

----------------

dear readers this serves as a story with moral for you all to learn many lessons from

take it however you want and share it with everyone 

and do not hesitate to express what you feel from this topic 

as this is an open space for everyone 
to learn from one another

Drained out?

as time goes by

and as surroundings change in life
you cannot help but feel sometimes 
a bit down

or feel a bit not really doing your best

you would feel that there is something missing
that there is something out there waiting for you 
but you just don't know what it is
or how to get it !

you would feel as if you have reach a point of "saturation"
so to speak 

a stagnant point 
where you feel you are stuck at a point
and its just "Nothing"

nothing in the sense of not going either up or down
or heading towards a certain direction

or maybe heading towards a direction but its not the desired one at all

and here comes the part where i "personally" would say

" Its Totally Normal ! "

we do find ourselves in unexpected detours and turns
(as i have mentioned in previous articles)

but for now ...
how do we take the other route out of this situation ?

well we can ... live in that situation and see where it takes you to 
(not exactly recommended if you are looking for a quick solution like me)

OR 

try something out of the ordinary
keep on seeking that thing that you are looking for in life
try one day to break the monotonous routine 
(which of course brought you to this position in the first place)

and perhaps along the way you will find something 

--------------------------------

Please share with us what you think about this matter

if you can relate to it some way or another

and share with us your story 

we all can learn from each other =)
