781) Thwaret Al Shak !


The Revolts doubt the people
People doubt the Revolts
Who said YES doubts who said NO
Who said NO doubts who said YES
Ekhwan doubt Liberals
Liberals doubt the Military Council
The Military Council doubts the Revolts
... the Revolts doubt the People ......
& I started doubting myself

أكاد أشك في نفسي لأني
أكاد أشك فيك وأنت مني
يقول الناس إنك خنت عهدي
ولم تحفظ هواي ولم تصني

779) Optimism ::: Fake It until you Make It !

At these tough times and incidents we are passing through, I have nothing to say more except sharing some positive quotes from different people, at different places, at different times, but they all agreed on one thing: Being Optimistic, and working for it.
Mohaly

  • I'm an optimist. I've always believed the future is going to be better than the past. And I also believe I have a role in that. The great thing about human beings, myself in particular, is that I can change. I can do better. If you can get up every day, stay optimistic, and believe the future is better than the past, those few things get you through a lot of tough times. ~ Jeffrey Immelt
  • Positive things happen to positive people. ~ Sarah Beeny
  • In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity. ~ Albert Einstein
  • The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose. ~ Kahlil Gibran
  • I became an optimist when I discovered that I wasn't going to win any more by being anything else. ~ Earl Weaver
  • Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant. ~ Robert Louis Stevenson
  • Pessimism leads to weakness, optimism to power. ~ William James
  • An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves. ~ Bill Vaughan
  • An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity ; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity. ~ Winston Churchill
  • Pessimist: One who, when he has the choice of two evils, chooses both. ~Oscar Wilde
  • Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. ~ Dale Carnegie
  • Anything's possible if you've got enough nerve. ~ J. K. Rowling
  • May the pain you have known and the conflict you have experienced give you the strength to walk through life facing each new situation with courage and optimism. ~ Anonymous

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence. ~ Helen Keller

At this point, I can guess what you are thinking, "....this will never work, because setbacks are sure to happen." You know what? I'm positive you're right. Setbacks are a part of the process. Your job is to keep going in spite of them. Look at things this way....you've made it this far in life with your current thinking. Just imagine all you have to gain. You can overcome pessimism. Just lighten up and try.


Still Can't? Fake it until you make it.

778) E3terafat Mohaly 6: Ana Manfa3sh 3arees !!!

Before your mind takes you to any other meaning ... I am fine, and my health is great thank God, we kolo tamam ... ya3ni Strauss El Ganzabeel ;)
I am sorry in advance for being too personal here, but as you know this series of "E3terafat Mohaly" can be nothing but personal.

So What am I talking about here? 
Some of my friends in different situations were discussing that "You can make a good "3arees"! Actually my reply was: I will not be able to fill the vacant position of "3arees" for a woman!! I am not applying and wont be applying for such position even if I proposed to a woman and married her as well. Why? because I dont wanna fill any structured position in life whether professional or personal, but I want to fill a gap, a real need for a life time best friend who happens to be her husband as well.

For a woman who is really looking for "3arees" position, I can be of a great disappointment. How come?
1) If she is looking for positions, titles, or certificates: I may have that now, but I am planning to leave it all and start over from scratch one day as I did before once I feel that I have given all what I have in such position or title.
2) If she is looking for stability: I have been settled in Cairo for years (and sometimes Hurghada), but not planning to stay there on the long term ... I gotta move to the seashore and start my cultural project there.
3) If she is looking for materialistic stuff: Year after year I am planning to have more public work/service which means more percentage of my time will go on volunteer basis (unpaid).
4) If she is looking for connections:  Once I leave my positions, I am sure more than half of the connections will be gone. That is life, and that is people.
5) If she is only physically attracted: I change every couple of years, lose & add weight, lose & add muscles, (I wish can say I can add more height), have or lose hair or goatee...etc. I am a Mutant man !
But if she is looking for me as a person, who I am, my thoughts, ideas, believes, without the titles, possessions, certifications, looking directly at my heart, my CORE, and likes it, then she has guaranteed a consistent life-time friend and partner who can happily hold the title "husband" & hopefully "father" as well.

I am someone who is looking at life from an overall perspective, and knows what I wanna do today and tomorrow. Someone who is straight forward and values freedom more than anything in the world (read my articles). If she likes that, and realizes it as well, then she is welcomed to my world .. she is my long waited for partner.


I am NOT looking for a "bride", I am looking for my best friend for the rest of my life.

Mohaly

P.S. Please save me the famous quote "u will never get married".


الحياة بدون المرأة موحشة ... و بدون الزواج منعشة !!

777) Seven Seven Seven !!



I don't know what is about it with me and number 7. I am obsessed with this number and all its repetitions and multiplications. There is something magical and mysterious about 7! I don't need a reason to love number 7, I just do .. love from the first sight.


But when I think about it I find:
- 7 doesn't divide on any number.
- 7 is number of the wonders in the world.
- 7 is the number of heavens, skies & earth layers.
- 7 is the number of days in a week.
- 7 Days of creation.
- 7 Circumambulations "Tawaf" around "Ka3ba".
- 7 Walks in "Safa & Marwa".
- 7 Kings of Rome.
- 7 Liberal Arts.
- 7 Years of Plenty & 7 years of Famine in Pharoh's dream.
- 7 Virtues.
- 7 Deadly Sins.
- 7 "Ayat" in Fatihah.
- A human can be conceived in 7 months.
- 7 Years is the time the personality is built & well established for a human being.
- 7 Rainbow Colors.
&
- 007 is the code number of James Bond.
- 7 is the hot series of BMW.
- 7 Up!
- 7 is the perfect number of wives a man should have (in his dreams).


Did I miss anything?

776) Labour Day ... Labour Year !

Egypt is celebrating today its first labour day after Mubarak who turned this day from a symbol for hard work and production for prosperity to a day for "ass kissing" for him and his gang. This year's celebration comes within a world-class revolution that amazed everyone, but it can't keep amazing everyone if it doesn't turn out to be an ignition for a powerful production and dedication from all the working force in Egypt. This is not only needed for the sake of the success of the revolution, but it is needed to make a real difference in Egypt that everyone can feel & experience.


This country won't develop by words, intentions, or even prayers. It needs hard work every day to compensate the enormous time wasted during the past years. In my opinion everyone of us should:
- Focus on his/her work or study, and don't waste a minute in playing, office politics, procrastination ...etc.
- Read more and be more specialized in your field. The world is moving and developing very fast, and in order to catch it, we need to move even faster. (etlobo el 3elm walao fel Seen).
- Use time off in some public work, and helping others who was misfortunate in their education, to be better and more productive.
- Don't lose faith and hope, and be sure that hard work will never fail you and always pay at the end (wa kol e3malo, fasayara Allaho 3amalokom).

Let's turn 2011 to a Labour Year and start from today ... The Free Labour Day.
