For the Legend

I woke up this morning to hear the shocking news; Michael Jackson is dead! OMG, the whole world was waiting for the great comeback. It seems he couldn't make it, or he wouldn't, maybe.
Was the world really waiting for his comeback?!!

Michael Jackson, whom is not a fan!! I think none of my generation, and maybe the generation before, didn't like his music, or even dance to it! But, what about this new generation?!

The world is different, this generation is different. They know nothing about legends, music, dancing or even beauty. We had a better luck, we witnessed some legends; scientists, musicians, artists ... But, the legends are falling, one after another. Is there any hope the world gets back its beauty? Is there anything we can do to HEAL THE WORLD?

And, going back to you MJ, I think, God didn't want to let you down! How would it feel, if you are standing singing on this stage, and all the audience are just of your age or maybe a bit younger?! Can't you see! Right now, and for about an hour ago, I've been watching MTV, and all they have got for you is just 5 songs! Maybe we are too old, this world is not ours any more!

But, no matter how it looks like now, you will always remain my legend, our legend. I think you could make it, you could create your HISTORY. From my generation, we all love you, we all will miss you. But, how could we, your music is still living among us. May you rest in peace.

My dream trips :)

I decided to write down my dream trips, since I add more to that every now and then, I'm afraid I will forget something. I really wish to do those trips before I die :). I won't sort them. Whatever is possible to do first, I will. 1. Another visit to the UK, one that's more organized, and maybe for a longer time 2. Spend some time in Paris, three nights is never enough! 3. Angkor, Cambodia! 4. Latin America, didn't decide which countries yet, but for sure I have to drop by Peru to visit a friend there 5. Aswan 6. A trip along the Nile till I reach lake Victoria. I have to drop by each country of the nine, really feel it, breathe it, taste it! 7. Italy, this one will be a long trip, I believe I need to visit every single province there! 8. Bali, Indonesia 9. India...India...India (this one may need a month!) 10. China 11. Planet Japan (Maybe!) 12. Qatar, wanna see the place where I grew up once more :) 13. A trip to the gulf countries in general! 14. Malaysia, I believe...

Emotional decision cycle

Stage 1: Everything, all the signs look positive. (Stable State of Heart) No answers, no clues, not a sign of anything I can do. (Helpless State of Mind) Stage 2: More new positive signs. The target seems so close. (Happy State of Heart) New signs, a clue, a brilliant idea! (Trust is the State of Mind) Stage 3: Negative signs start showing up. Things start to look messy. (Pessimistic State of Heart) The target starts fading away. Don't know what I should really do. Should I keep on, or let go! (Confusion State of Mind) Stage 4: Even more negative signs. I feel that I don't wanna do it. (Closure State of Heart) No solution, no clues. (Helpless State of Mind) Why did this cycle start? I don't really know. What was the aim? What are You trying to tell me God? I can't get it! Either, I'm too blessed, or too cursed. God, please, guide me to the right direction. You know it's Your satisfaction that I care for. Don't let me down. Please help me!!!

A man of knowledge (The four natural enemies)

Sunday, April 15, 1962 As I was getting ready to leave, I decided to ask him once more about the enemies of a man of knowledge. I argued that I could not return for some time, and it would be a good idea to write down what he had to say and then think about it while I was away. He hesitated for a while, but then he began to talk. "When a man starts to learn, he is never clear about his objectives. His purpose is faulty; his intent is vague. He hopes for rewards that will never materialize, for he knows nothing of the hardships of learning. "He slowly begins to learn - bit by bit at first, then in big chunks. And his thoughts soon clash. What he learns is never what he pictured, or imagined, and so he begins to be afraid. Learning is never what one expects. Every step of learning is a new task, and the fear the man is experiencing begins to mount mercilessly, unyieldingly. His purpose becomes a battlefield. "And thus he has stumbled upon the first of his natural...

"Like sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself. He threshes you to make you naked. He sifts you to free you from your husks. He grinds you to whiteness. He kneads you until you are pliant; And then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred bread for God’s sacred feast."
