حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل
I wasn’t going to say anything about what’s been happening, but I can no longer stay quiet. I have so much to say, yet for right now, I’ll settle for this:..حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل.. حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل.. حسبي الله و نعم الوكيل
Amazing when a life no longer has any value! Amazing how cheap governments are selling people for! Amazing how the World isn’t stepping up to stop this! Amazing how 2 Israeli soldiers captured is terrorism, yet killing innocent women and children is ’self defense’.
They’re no longer even trying to hide it or do it discreetly. It’s out in the open! They do what they want, and the World just gives them a slap on the wrist saying ’stop it’
I’m ashamed to be part of the ‘World’!

Choose
I took a few days off work and went to Kuwait. It was nice to get out of the normal routine, go shopping, and eat a lot of things that I probably shouldn’t have eaten! :)That said, time for a light post. Which would you choose:
* Superman or Spiderman?
* Morning or a night person?
* Las Vegas or the Maldives?
* Firefox or IE?
* Chocolate or fruit cake?
* LOST or 24?

Changing Lives
If there’s one thing that I’ve learned in life, it’s that nothing stays the same. The more we try to hold on to things, the higher the odds that they’ll slip away. Life is constantly moving, and the only constant is change.As humans, it’s not always easy to accept that. We get used to things quickly, which makes it hard to let go. When we lose things/people, suddenly we feel this void where they used to be.
The quicker we understand and accept that this is part of life, the easier things will get for us. It’s not about being a pessimist. It’s more of being a realist.

Amnesia
Does anyone else suffer from temporary (or permanent) memory loss?!I can’t seem to be able to keep a thought in my mind for long. Yesterday I had an idea of a post I wanted to write about. Today, for the life of me, I can’t remember what the topic was!
What am I supposed to do? It just seems to be getting worse! It’s gotten to a point where I have to set reminders on my phone just to remember to make a call the next day or get something done.

Appreciation
There are a lot of things in life that frustrate us. Many things that we sit there and complain about. Every now and then, though, it’s good to take a step back and look at how good we have it compared to others. It’s so easy to notice the bad, we don’t take enough time to appreciate the small things in life. Like what? Let’s start by going way back:* Electricity!
* Air Conditioners (thank u thank u thank u)
* Cars
* Internet!! (how did we survive w/out it?)
* Cable (GO ITALY!)
* Airplanes
* Advancements made in the field of medicine
Too general? Ok, how about others who:
* Don’t have enough money to know where they’ll get their next meal from?
* Have abusive parents/spouses (girl raped and impregnated by her father, wife used as an ashtray for her husband, etc)
* Have lost loved ones or have loved ones who are really ill
* Have no family
* Have no home
Al7amd-l’Allah for everything we have. Thank God for our family, our friends, our health, the home we live in, and the food on our table.
