CRUSING AROUND

This is Mo's recommendation*. Interesting bost apout za diverent groubs in za society. I loved it. Blease go read it.

Sanks!

This, that, this and certainly this are interesting to dive in. I particularly like the 'mint in the Bus.' If you are one of these or those brace yourself, I suppose! Well, maybe you will actually like them, who knows! They are very well written. Moderate, thoughtful and funny.*

This is an interesting one. Interesting for a total different reasons than those of Alif. Find your own judgement on the post. Hope it inspires you to say something about what I personally consider a phenomena.

Zoss is absolutely AWESOME. Love her/his 'something', afraid my labelling will limit what I felt after reading the posts. Thanks!

*Sorry Kayla, these are arabic posts. Check the last one, it is in English though.

Dearest Kayla,
You are in the heart. No need to beg for attention. You dont need to read the article, you already know all of it.

FYI, it is talking about social segregation and class differences and how they are spotted in the society. Do you have that in your country?

Yeah, we have it! We have all the bad things, so don't ask! If it's good things you're talking about, you should really ask! :)

Kayla,
it is not good or bad, it is society fabric. Good or bad is relative, and it shouldnt be a judgement either.

You are probably right, Haal. But if a certain situation is generally labeled as bad, then you can find it in Romania...Still, it's sometimes a lot milder than in other parts of the world. But it;s there..

Have been diving in the same posts of Alif yesterday, which resulted in diving in my own thoughts regarding his posts. And I wonder,would I ever reach a conclusion? I doubt!

Haal, I'd love to know what is it that you found interesting in the comments on a my post, but I think the links in your post need some fixing.

Tarfah, thank you for the compliment.

MoonLightShadow, please share your thoughts on my posts with us :)

Alif,
Interesting in the 'comments' on your posts, or the actual posts?

If talking about the posts, I liked the religion dimension you portrayed in the mint post around the different images of what will call 'mu'min', how we just tend to 'nera'a3' our relation to allah and how in doing that we are so fake and hypocrtical. Sure there is no generalization, but we 'steal' minutes that will make us 'safe' in real life. But what is interesting is how in doing that we just dont get the pleasure of anything because we do it en passant.

The earth position one was cute. We will always try to find how 'Awesome' Allah is....when in reality no one really doubted that HE is! But as a proverb said, 'if i didnt have million reasons to doubt, I wont have find millions of proves.'

WISH

...i would say how much i miss this presence in my life and situation. But I can't. ...i would say how many times i space out with my thinking in many situation and know that it would be different had this presence been here. But it is high expectation. ...i would have a home to go back to, feel supported and secured in the midst of any day-to-day encounters... knowing I have someone with him i shed off all my masks and knows me well without explaining. But proves impossible. ...i would play and giggle. dream and plan. progress and move steadily. according to god's plan and orders. soul level. supported by this presence. But it is hard. ...we would talk and talk. discuss and discuss. learn and unlearn. teach and receive. smile in awe. in appreciation. of one another's opinion and sharing. But is never attained. ...we would share share share. listen listen listen. understand and empathize. contain and hug to rest and include. silently affirm and invite to a safe shore to cry

ISLAMIC SHOP

Never thought I was going to enter this islamic store, or so does everyone call it in the area. Al-tawheed we al-Nour. It was quite an experience. I am heading to France this week so M. asked me for hunting pants that she can wear under her cloths in winter. She wanted them in pure cotton, and pointed me to this tawheed place. So, there I went. Upon entering the place, I thought I was transformed into this new world. A hive, except it is a lazy one. Only crowded. All the sellers are men with the praying sign on their forehead, some with long beards, the plupart majority wearing greyish short pants and weird colour shirts. You can't miss but feel that they all look the same. Of course, the sound of 'iza'et el coran al kareem' was screaming everywhere. Coran, ahadeeth, preaching, all what you want. So I headed to the women section, expecting the sellers to be women. Veiled women. Munaqaba women. Whatever. It is women section for god's sake. Never expected a man to s

CAN IT BE

I was reading Atallah's when I found these words. انا لا أشكو، ففى الشكوى إنحناء و أنا نبض عروقى كبرياء by Kamel el-Shinawy. Can one really live without complaining? I don't know if we can do that. Someone always tells me that you should know exactly where to direct your complains. Don't waste your time asking homage from the servants, go to the owner. Go directly to the source. He would know how to help, otherwise it is a waste of time. I agreed back then, but still had problems. Now I don't agree, and still have the same problems. I tend to conclude that these problems are my destined luggage that I need to get rid of but they are deeply rooted in me. I had to take a dive down. And yes, there is Boss, who isn't really a Boss. P.S. Some of the comments exchanged down here are meant to be funny. Nothing personal. Please continue with the discussion. My pleasure.
