Anything for you

My dear Maria, again like most of the times, I wanted to write some time ago, but, this time I am late for a different reason. Today, is my first day in the office job after I have stayed home for more than a year and a half. I have joined the company I used to work for again but as a part-timer. Last week I worked from home, and today is my first day in the office. I preferred to write it from the office for the special feeling. The office is in Zamalek, now this area is one of the most luxurious in Cairo, am not sure what it is like while you are reading this. I once made a project for that same company 13 years ago. I feel that my life goes in circles, I keep passing by the same places, and even people through the years!

Maria, I accepted that job for you. After graduation I found it hard to have a steady income, it will take so long till that happens, and I can't miss you more. So, I decided to take a part-time job for a monthly income, and still keep on going with my plans. Can't tell you how hard my back hurts, but am happy for it dear.

Thinking of the title here, it was influenced by a song that was a hit in my teenage time, now it is an oldie. The song was titled "Anywhere for you" by backstreet boys. Here it is, I hope you like it. I hope this link still works while you are reading this :)



With all my love :*

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...

Living vs Waiting

Living: Living here is used as a generic word for “living the moment”. When someone is “living the moment” he feels alive, enjoying every moment, experiencing all the feelings and emotions he should in that special moment. He is totally present, feeling relaxed, and hopeful about his future. Waiting: As explained in Oxford dictionary; the action of staying where one is or delaying action until a particular time or event: ‘years of waiting’ On the contrary to “living the moment”, when someone is in a waiting state, he is probably wasting his time and emotions, not experiencing the feelings he should experience in his present moment. Not being there, not understanding. Worried and anxious about what to come that he doesn’t notice the beauty of his current moment. Waiting involves: intolerance, anxiety, anticipation. When someone is in a waiting state he starts to believe things have taken so long to happen. And this involves doubt that he is in charge of his own l...

"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."

The Prophet ~ Khalil Gibran
