Daydreams...

There are fickle visions of a life in my mind. It might be a past life or a future one; I can't tell. They could just be memories. Memories I can't completely remember. Maybe memories of a life I only dreamed of long ago. A life I haven't yet lived. And they may be premonitions of a coming life. A life I'm destined to live someday. Or just a life I can only dream of living. A life I can never afford thinking about. I can't be sure what kind of life it is. I can't even describe it. All I know about these visions is that they leave my heart with some kind of warmth, and my mind with some content. It's all momentary, I know. But they worth to be noticed and thought of. I couldn't figure what is this that I have. It fills me with the hope of a much happier tomorrow. And sometimes with regret that I wouldn't be able to relive such a life, and with the worry that maybe this life would never be lived, by me. There's another life inside of me. And till ...

   I wouldn't have said what I had just said and in this way but for the experiences I have had in life and the lessons I have been taught. See I have evolved, grown up, understood life better, or came to the realization that we should never by any mean oppose our own happiness. That we deserve to think for our own best, even if it hurts our hearts to see people we love are a little confused or in distress. I sound harsh, right? But I've been through a lot actually to know how wrong it is to sacrifice your own happiness for others. It's not the lack of appreciation or the denial of your gift to them that would hurt you later on. It's your regrets. And regrets were my worst pain. And I would hate seeing you in pain. We have been told by everyone around us, even by the stories we read and watch, that we should never give our all unless we are sure hundred percent that we were given everything we deserve. Because only then we shall have no regrets. Only then ev...

She hanged up the phone softly, wore a huge smile on her face, leaned on the nearest wall, and kept imagining how her life would turn upside down. Now that all she had ever dreamed to have and experience would come true. The smile never left her face, it just started to fade away little by little to be replaced by a  look of thoughtfulness and worry. The shadow of responsibility has been zooming around her since the minute she had applied for that job, the job of her dreams. She had always been dreaming of a career that would allow her to travel all around the world, discover new places and new people, and be able to give a hand to everyone who needs help. Working for an international agency was her way to achieve a part of her dreams. And that call she had just received has put her on the first steps towards her fantasy. Yet being reallocated in Dubai was the scariest thing of all. Being on her own, leaving her family for the very first time of her life, even if it ...

It says, in the dictionary, that Democracy is the belief in freedom and equality between people. And to believe is to be certain that something is true. So, democratic people are people who are sure that freedom and equality are essential together. Period. Now, that's generally deep. Freedom and Equality. Two words that would take decades to study or even understand. No wonder why people have different thoughts about what democracy is all about. But taking things to its simplest forms, as I see it, freedom is to do anything that comes onto your mind, and equality is that all people have the right to practice freedom equally, that is to say that no one is more free than the other, and no one will take more rights than the other. Then there must be rules, I'm thinking. There must be constraints to this freedom, or else there wouldn't be any equality, or justice. For example, a very fictional one, if I'm free to eat all the chocolate in the house, and my broth...

Well, Ok... This is just another writing project I'm committing to. This time I'm supported and encouraged by others. A dear good very supportive friend I've recently gained has suggested to start writing daily. The exercise is to choose one word, a very random word, and try to write a sentence or a group of sentences about it. I'll also take it as a challenge to apply all the things I've recently learned about creative writing. Ah! and the most important thing is that you must deliver your very first draft. And if you ran out of words then it's time to drop your pen, or move your fingers away from the keyboard! And because I love sharing this with you, so here I will. Off course if you like the idea, then please join me. You also know how your feedback thrills me, so you're totally welcome to leave comments. ;) ... 1 .. 2 .. 3 .. PLAY! Word #1: Sleep Sleep isn't a luxury. We are blessed with the ability to sleep. Sleep eases our pains, both phys...
