My little life based conclusions

I’m back into studying Physics, linear Algebra, calculus and English grammar!!!
I guess enshallah from the look of it I’ll be repeating engineering classes again for the upcoming five years?!!?! My only hope is that if it’s going to be in an other discipline that I can at least get a certificate for it!!

So I’m taking a look at Newton’s third law:
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction

In The universe of physics the law is clear simple and you can fairly relay on it, but in the world of humans it’s never the case, your actions could have many reactions in result but none could ever fallow any law of nature so a look at some of what you may get in return for a an action

1- Nothing, some people would choose not to acknowledge your action as simple as that
2- A squared negative reaction, some people just over react
3- A reaction coming from un related parties, some people believe that they are the center of the universe and what ever you do is directed to them so they’d give themselves the right to react
4- A minimum reaction compared to your action, it happens when the two people involved don’t share the same definition of things
5- Even no actions at all can result in a reaction
6- A sequential events that would lead to your brutal death, “give me any situation and enshallah I’ll provide you with a scenario with the above stated end”

At school they teach us about objects and they miss out a very important thing, they don’t teach us about humans, and that’s the tricky part of living, there is no guide line no laws or steps, specially in this time and age when simple rules of ethics has diminished, it became harder and harder to deal with people

So in conclusion, for me just be who you are, do things and don’t expect something in return, because you can never control how people would receive things and react towards them, do it cause you want to that’s all

A little story

In a far a way land,
there was a kingdom,
they were living in peace and harmony,

one day the king got sick,
at his nose,
all the doctors of the kingdom couldn’t cure the king,
there was only one way to stop the disease from spreading to his body,
they had to cut his nose,
so now the king has no nose,

and in every time he meets with his ministers,
the ministers start to giggle and chuckle at him,
the next day the King has made an order,
“All the noses of the ministers have to be cut!”
now the ministers has no nose,

and when they meet the people,
people chuckle at them,
so all the ministers agreed,
“All the noses of the people have to be cut!”
now the entire Kingdom has no nose,

Years later,
a lost stranger passed by the kingdom,
when people saw him,
they all started laughing,
cause he had a nose

Advice

I thought to my self, given the knowledge and understanding you have right now what could you have done differently in your life?

The way this question formed is that my brother got accepted in engineering :D and I need to provide him with advice as I have been entitled as the highest ranking consultants for his excellency :-P

Oh my god seven years has passed already, I’d say in my case what I came to learn in my college years is rather minimum compared to what I’ve learned and understood in my working years, but collectively I couldn’t have done one without the other

So beside the usual advice about the subjects, classes, studying, major and grades, I’d say by far relationships and communication skills is what you need to get out of that experience, in that rather limited controlled place you are allowed to meet people and have the chance to interact with them and start to learn more about human nature, in this place among the other students there is the equality factor which will disappear once you enroll in the working force as you’ll have to deal with people who unfortunately would actually have a saying on your working life whether you liked it or not

So as a person who has a gifted nature in making enemies in every place I step a foot in, my advice is develop your communication skills,
listen and listen carefully, you are still a young human what ever you think you know is still quite limited, take in all you can first and speak later,
understand the differences between humans, believe me, it’s rear that you’ll come across someone who would think the same as you are,
people understanding varies so be patient, people invented the word NO for a reason so use it,
when you have a problem speak out, consultation and advice can take you a long way,
after words the way that you present your self and your ideas and how you deal with people is your greatest asset, take my word for it, it’s more important than your certificate,
communication, debate and presentation, even if you all have the same answers, those three would make you or break you,
and finally the best place to develop leadership skills is there so maximize the value of the opportunity and make it a full learning experience

on the other hand, never, never and never neglect your relations for school always make time for human relations that really what matters and you can learn a thing or two from them

Set your priorities straight, you need to figure out for your self what matters the most in life, the only way you’d appreciate it is by finding it out by yourself

May God be with you and protect you always my Brother :*

P.S. Don’t spend the next 5 years enshallah eating burgers!!

Knowledge

Volume 1 of 2

A friend of mine told me once that there was a recent research saying they've discovered that not only the brain has the neurons it's also found in the heart and the guts and through the research they also discovered how we humans receive information, based on the findings it says that when we first encounter information it gets transported from our senses to the heart and guts to be processed and then what's left will be moved forward to our brain, so really what ever information that gets to your mind has been purified by the heart and guts neurons, you probably have felt that before in intense piece of news that hurting feeling you get in your heart, that would also explain how when a group of people be in the same situation but each of would walk away with a different piece of information

When I was a little girl around 7 years old, I actually spent my break doing my home work, yeah yeah yeah even then I had a little geekness in me, so it happened as fallows, as I was setting by my desk a girl come and sat across from me and asked me; how come you have good grades?, one other thing I should mention she had an eye infection at that time so she looked at me with red eyes and that scared the hell out of me, I took my note book and went through the empty pages and said our brains both of us are empty, it's up to us to full them up just like these pages it's what you full them up with that makes them valued

I thought of that then and I still think of it now, to go through life you'll need and want to full your pages, and to full your pages you need others input too, and now I know that each of us holds in part of the puzzle and together we can help each other to understand

Each and every person has his his/her own special ways of looking at things and some has a continues flaw which within it you can feel them ALIVE, those precious few that I've been blessed with their company whom by their light I shall see my way more clearly….

Volume 2 of 2

Two years ago I was filling out an application for a summer job, the same old information except for one question, its says "write down three pro's and con's of Kuwaiti society" !!
Ok for the con's part the dotted spaces wasn't enough plus I was limited by only mentioning three
For the pro's, that took a while, I sat there thinking, what could it be classified as a distinct pro for the Kuwaiti society, I remember I wrote something because I really had to complete the application, but to sit down and seriously think of it I came up with the following three;

Among the rest of Arab nations we are there on the top of the rest for freedom of speech, even our glamorous neighboring Dubai their speaking rights are virtually non existing where they have no union's not even the right to strike, so that’s one
Feminine freedom, thank god for that, that’s two
I'm sorry but really I couldn't come up with a third!!, any suggestions?

Cheers,

Change

Girls seriously stop doing this, you are all becoming a total shame for the rest of us, at least what’s left of us, we the few others who are on the endangered species list,
In theory, as Kuwaiti females graduate from high school and college with the highest marks, a person would assume that through out generations and generations of highly educated females we would be dominant by now, at least career wise, but really I don’t get it, something happens like right after they get a job

My interpretation is that once a female has a degree and a job her total attention is shifted on getting married, and it’s true if you paid any attention what so ever to the behavioral changes in females after they get a job you can divided them mostly in two groups;

first I’d call them “the waiting” in definition those who put their lives on hold waiting for the moment they become wives and then life can resume, meanwhile they are already practicing the attitude of a 40 year old married woman with 5 kids and in their heads planning out their “future married life” to the finest detail

The other group I’d call them “the go getters” those who are out their snuffing for their prey all ready dressed up and on continues alert to jump in at all times,

Girls you are embracing us, what the hell happened to you?
You are Muslims for god’s sake doesn’t believing in destiny means any thing to you? If you are meant to be married it will happen, so quite the crap and do something of an actual worth!!!

what if you were meant to be married at 30 do you really want to go on waste a good 7 or 8 years in an empty pointless circle for either group,

I do believe that we are good enough that we have equal resources as men and probably even more, and if we can just start thinking straight our force can make a change make a difference each one in her desired filed,

alright even for those who can’t make that dramatic change, I heard all the lame excuses already, but at least I’m sure you can take 2 hours of your precious time two or three times a week and do something,

it shocks me to the core to know that a human being can spend an entire year without doing anything or even moving one step in any direction, at least, in case you don’t know the brain cells are like muscles so if you don’t train it, the poor thing, will be inactive, so please develop your brain,

alright forget the better good, don’t help others or anything, can’t you just do that to live your life as you? Don’t you want to have a character that is unique? Do you know what we are? We are individuals, there is nothing more relieving than living who you truly are, just stop being a copy of someone else and be you, don’t say I don’t know what to do or I don’t have the energy for it, figuring out what you want is part of the journey and there is nothing binding you can always change your mind

Series of events

On my way to work as I was listening to the radio, the guy said that everything is predetermined but that doesn’t give us the excuse to stand still and wait for things to happen, the trick here is that what we are destined for would be made easier for us to reach,

going to work and thinking about all the effort I have been putting in each day and I wonder where am I going to reach, lately I’ve been putting so much weight on the experience it self, just to ease the stress of worrying about the outcome,

I’m always fascinated how things develop and result in totally different things, how small decisions can turn your life from one direction to an other, when something with a great magnitude happens, I’d go and trace back the series of events that lead to it, and so very often I find that they were only a sum of small things but they happened in a perfect sequence all in the right time and place that created the situation,

like dominos chain reaction, if at one point you took one peace out the chain would stop, or if the arrangement have been changed all the rest wouldn’t have to fall with the first, but that preciseness that makes it all fall apart,

tracing back some of my major events and I see it clearly, some times it could be just a word that I said or didn't say, a moment when I stayed and I shouldn’t stay, even a traffic light that I passed when I should’ve stopped,
to think of how my whole life has changed by a simple answer, an answer that wasn’t a no or a yes, it was just a maybe and that closed a path in my life forever, when you consider how your action comes into play, how even the small things you may do would lead you some where else, you should always be your most genuine you, don’t take things lightly and knowing with a convection that being who you are at all times would take you to your true destiny, so there will be no regrets, or self blame

Cheers,
