The long-awaited Ramadan,

My favourite time of the year, Ramadan, is finally indoors! and as I do every year I welcome it with open arms. This will be my first Ramadan to spend it entirely without exams or any academic interruption so I am hoping for a deep meditation and good internal changes during this holy month. Ramadan gathers family, friends and even neighbours and creates a very beautiful vibe that keeps us thinking that life is still fine and warm-hearted people do exist. My favourite part of Ramadan is when I stay up all night watching the stars of the sky and waiting for the sunrise with my mother while reading the Holy Quran, I get goose-bumps` just by having those flashbacks! Ramadan has a unique smell and a special taste, it could be the smell of the soap we eat on Iftar or the taste of the drinks we drink only in those holy days, Ramadan teaches us a lot and makes us discover how strong we are enough to control ourselves for not eating for almost half the day, it also makes us feel for those wh...

"지름길은 없죠, 지름길은 없습니다"

삶은 오고 가는 것에 관한 것이고, 우리는 많은 것들을 담고 싶어요. 우리는 참 욕심이 많은 사람들이죠?  저희는 빨리 만족하지는 않지만, 여러분 주변의 축복을 느낄 수 있는 가장 좋은 방법이라고 생각해요. 인생은 천국이 아니라서 모든 일은 완벽하지 않죠 .  시간은 소중한데 여러분이 정말로 갖고 싶어 하는 것을 위해 절대로 포기하면 안돼요. 인생은 모두 교훈에 관한거에요! 새로운 정보를 배우지 않고는 하루도 넘기지 않았으면 좋겠어요. 시간이 빨리 지나가고 나는 우리가 이 삶에 대해 충분히 배웠는지 아닌지 궁금해요.  근데 그 대답은 언제나'아니요 '입니다.  주변에서 일어나는 모든 일을 알려고 서두르지 말고 그저 신중하게 살아요.  너무 많이 알게 되는 것도 문제이고, 조금만 아는 것도 문제가 될 수 있어요. 가족과 친구들을 지키기를 하나님께 항상 기도하고. 그들 중 대부분이 없다면.. 나의 글을 읽을 수 없을 것같아요. 시간이 지날 것 같은데 뭘 배웠니? 항상"다음은 뭘까 "에 대해 궁금해요. -샤마

"Life is full of chances. Take it lightly."

Life is all about come's and goes, we wish to have a lot of things in life and us humans are full of greediness. We don’t feel satisfied quickly, but the best way to feel the blessings around you is by counting them and thanking your god for them. It is a life, not heaven. Don’t tire yourself running for unrealistic dreams. I am not saying that you can’t reach your goals but think about your abilities and the circumstances around you. Time is the last thing you should waste. Life is all about lessons. Never let a day pass without blessing your brain with new useful things. Time passes quickly and I am wondering if we have learned enough about this life and the answer is always no. Don’t rush yourself into knowing everything happening around, and just be moderate. Sometimes knowing too much is a problem and knowing a little could be a problem too. Pray god to keep your family and friends, without most of them you will not be able to read my post. Time will pass but what did ...

Being away from your diamond.

When I wrote "diamond" I meant a very special part of me, something I can never live without. I completed almost my first month away from my diamond, most precious thing in my life (My mother) you have the total right to be curious why? why are you not with her? and that because I chose to study in a place far from my house in Alain. At first, I thought I can be okay being "independent" because I am only 17 and maybe I have to sacrifice some things I love in order to live, but as soon as I moved, I got a cold and that is totally normal in such a weather! but it was my first time as well to get a cold without looking beside me and having my mother smiling telling me to be careful next time, but she calls me often and asks me about how I am doing which is so heartwarming. The word "mother" can actually make me teary as soon as I read or write it, it makes me so proud to have a mother that is so strong, supportive and loving. No words I can write that wi...

My first day at university.

Sunday, 20 AUG 2017 My first day at university. Setting the alarm again is quite a sad thing, especially after the vacation, but this time I somehow feel so excited about it, yes it's my first day of university! the fact that I know literally no one there, is so interesting because it means I have to build a new social life. I fell in love with the huge campus and my favorite two cafe shops were there too, and surprisingly the gym was clean and big. To be honest, it felt a bit weird that I was walking around the campus while holding my phone and feeling that my old high school supervisor is going to take it from me, I will finally carry my phone freely and at least put on some colorful nails without breaking off "school laws". I really do miss my school friends because they were with me almost all day long and we used to contact a lot even after our meetups so that makes me miss them even more since I am far away from them. Today is the first day I realized I am ...

Hard work is another word of a miracle.

19 August 2017  2:24PM Tomorrow is my very first day in university, I can't believe how fast days were passing its like yesterday I threw my high school graduation cap and took my last final exam. The fact that I am moving from my city to another one to study the thing I love is just an exciting thing to do and having new friends from a totally different environment seems like a thrilling experience that I have to be careful about. I am going to turn 18 this December and looking back through my short life I find nothing but happy moments, despite the cringy awkwardness that we all have to go through.  I always tend to tell people to never give up on what they love and to not stop dreaming, but I sadly miss the point that not everyone does have a goal in life or maybe they are just too depressed to have one. Families or friends could be the reason why some people can't achieve or even say their dreams out loud and because of that, some people can put the idea of failure and...
