All these huge help organizations and international associations: one for Human Rights, the other for Women Rights, another one for Saving Children, one for the Poor, one for the Orphans, some for Protecting Animals, another to Prevent Pollution, and a lot more institutions we created to “give us a hand” survive the bad sides of life, and still we find homeless people, criminals, thieves, people with no rights, no justice, problems, misery, poverty and failure.
We created laws to be fair to each other and stop violence, but we’re still suffering. We invented machines and electronics to help us cook, wash, and even brush our own teeth, but we’re still busy and can’t find enough time to enjoy our lives. We made up driving rules to stop the danger of accidents, but still hundreds die every day. We invented planes to shorten distance, but still it’s not short enough. No matter what we do, nothing seems good enough for us to live in peace, problem-free without any member of the society suffering. Life is becoming harder and cruelty is out of control. We reached a point where we did everything possible to improve, but still there is nothing left for us to do to improve the improved systems we created.
All this made me wonder… isn’t weird?!

It’s not our looks that make us modern. Belonging to the group of modern people can never be achieved by simply looking modern. Modernity has to be in thinking before anything else.

Dress Modern
To dress in a modern way doesn’t mean to follow the newest fashion trends. It’s more like to dress what gains the right kind of people’s attraction: their respect, and their admiration for your elegant yet simple style.
You don’t have to spend a fortune when you shop for clothes, and you don’t have to dress like others. I don’t mean creating an out of this world costume, what i meant was choosing the right thing for you even if others aren’t used to it, or don’t wear it anymore. Something that will flatter your confident walk rather than flattering your body, something that will reflect your character, not anyone else’s.
You don’t have to start your day with new clothes everytime, repetition wont harm. Change is good, but not by collecting 100s of clothes in your closet. Just a normal amount of clothes with a good sense of matching will do the trick. Adding new stuff whenever it’s ok with your pocket would be great as well 🙂

Think Modern
You can’t dress modern unless you have modern thinking. And all you need to be a modern thinker is to have an open mentality that will make you choose what’s right for you and not what’s “supposed” or “used” to be right.
But still sometimes you’d better stick to the orders and rules even if you don’t like them, as long as they wont harm you or harm anyone else.
You have to be flexible, friendly, honest and reliable to be modern. If you’re in a sticky situation you should always be sure that there is a way out, the way wont come to you though, you should figure it out yourself.
Modernity is being modest, self-confident and trustfull. Modernity is to try as hard as you can to be ideal.
This is modernity…

I’ve been surfing the net last night when I came across this interesting website.
almedia
It offers Arabic Lessons for online learners and it has a lot of nice features as greeting cards, jokes, fonts and many other things. It has an English illustration for the Arabic features which I find really practical for those beginners in the Arabic language.
So if you’re interested in Arabic language why don’t you take a look, you’ll like it 😉

I am one of the people interested in Macrobiotics and I’m always curious to know more about it. A lot of people misunderstand it as being a way of eating, but it’s not only that but also a way of life.
And although I don’t agree completely with every detail they ask people to do, one of which is cutting meat as much as possible (because I believe that there should be some certain amounts of meat in our food to provide us with essential amino acids and some proteins that can’t be provided but from meat, other than that our bodies need a certain percentage of animal cholesterol. But still we should be careful not to depend on meat entirely nor to eat a lot of meat portions) but all in all I like Macrobiotics. It supports the balance of nature and help us gain our health depending on achieving the balance between the Yin & Yang in our food, as well as our inner peace with our souls. Besides food balance, Macrobiotics includes meditating, moving, color-therapies and massage.
I read a lot of books of a great doctor called Dr. Yousef Al Bader and I must say that all the ones who read that book loved it so much. In those books you can find the relationship between food and diseases, how to heal them and how to protect yourslef from them; The relationship between food and the potential to become criminals; Macrobiotics for a happy life… etc.All books are in Arabic.
Another great Macrobiotic advisor is Mariam Nour, I read two books written by her: a cup of power; Macrobiotics! And they are both in Arabic too.
If you’re interested in Macrobiotics or want to have a general idea about it, or if have any health problem and you’re seeking its solution you could go to:

A lot of you reading this post might be offended one way or the other, and some might as well believe that I’m an unfair person, I hope you wont misjudge me, but I feel we all need a moment of thinking really good about what’s going on around us these days to know how to make things right and get our universe back to normal.
Long years ago when I was a little girl, I knew from the very start that there must be 2 different kinds of a thing for life to continue. There has to be a mom and a dad for us to come to the world, there has to be a male and a female cat for us to see more kittens and even plants, there has to be two different genders for us to see flowers and eat fruits and vegetables. I realized that humankind will never survive if there was no unity of the two opposite kinds. And then I went to school, and day by day my belief got stronger. In science we learned that two similar magnet ends can never get attracted to each other, and we learned that for our alarm clocks to work, we have to place 2 batteries letting the opposite ends meet for them to be able to generate power. Things were going so nice, I understood everything concerning life, but all at a sudden, when I became older I started hearing about homosexuals. I read articles about stars and famous people turning to be homosexual. I saw the negative reaction of the community towards homosexuality, but I also saw homosexuals marching for people to “leave them in peace”, and to “give them their rights”…
So communities started feeling “sorry” for them, and decided to let them live their life the way they want. No interfering, no preaching and no standing in their way. So you found in schools girls who were like: oh poor thing, she’s lesbian why don’t we be friends with her, or boys going like: isn’t he pathetic? Come on let us be his friends, that’s the least we can do.
And after a while homosexuals started asking for more, they want to have official marriage ceremonies and want people to support them in any way. So they have their own sites on the internet now, they have their own e-cards, they have their own movie channels and porn satellite channels and websites, they have their own greeting cards in shopping malls, they have their own pubs and discotheques. You can even find movies about homosexuals, and others that have a little part of a homosexual, till it became so “stylish” for someone to be friends with a homosexual. Homosexuals were considered a REJECTED phenomena, then they became just a WEIRD one and now they are looked at as COOL and it’s even encouraged by us.
And that explains why the percentage of homosexuals is always increasing. There was a time when homosexuals were pointed out in each country so easily, but now you can hardly tell how many they are and who they are. Parents are afraid to leave their kids with the homosexual doctor. Some avoid having relationships with homosexuals so that their children wont turn to be like them.
A guy is afraid that the girl next door, who he likes so much and wants to ask for a date, he’s afraid she’d turn out to be homosexual. And a lady who is doing her best to get the attention of her coworker has doubts he might be homosexual. A mother who is noticing that her girl is behaving like the opposite sex and having no guy to like up till now, is starting to believe her girl is homosexual. A father who has just met the teacher of his son, is so worried now because the teacher seemed to look homosexual. A girl does not want her best friend to turn to be homosexual because if that’s the case then that best friend is not being a best friend but is deeply in love with her and is acting accordingly, and then their friendship will fade away. A woman who is experiencing change in her husband and can’t tell if their relationship is in danger because of another woman or a man. A young man, whose parents are divorced and who’s seeing his mom constantly with another woman, is not that sure whether she’s just a good friend helping her get over her loneliness or if she’s her lover!
Is this normal?
And what about homosexual-modern trend: adopting!!
You can see 2 women kissing in the street with a little pretty girl standing in between… their “daughter”. Or two men walking side by side holding each other with one of them carrying a little innocent baby. I wonder who’d be called mom and who’d be dad? Or would they both be dad? And what happens when the kid grows up, he asks and they reply: sorry honey, you’re adopted and we’re homosexual!! Wouldn’t the kid be curious to know more about homosexuality? Wouldn’t the kid be used to seeing 2 men/ women kissing each other and having a love affaire? Wouldn’t he be ready to be homosexual? Yes, he will be ready, yet he might become one or there might be a miracle to save him. Do you out there realize what that means!!! It means the number of families will decrease and there might be a time when our race will be in danger and a time when it might not exist. Don’t think I’m exaggerating, I know human beings are just TOO MANY, but look forward, now homosexuals , although they became a lot, but they’re still less than non-homosexuals. But what makes us sure that there will not be a day when homosexuals will be more than non-homosexuals?! No guarantee.
I don’t blame babies who have been raised by homosexuals if they became like them, it’s not their fault. It’s the fault of the authorities who gave them the right to have that innocent child. But I sure blame our generation and the generations before, I blame the ones who felt sorry for homosexuals, instead of looking for the reasons why they become ones and fix the problem, I blame this time when any girl losing hope in getting a boyfriend or a husband would turn to her kind and try being a homosexual. I blame the guy who turn gay just because he went through so many relationships with girls and none of them worked out, so it was a sign for him that he is gay and therefore he should look for a boyfriend and not a girl friend.
I blame the parents who are busy looking for their own pleasure, not being there for their children. The parents who see it normal for them to betray their spouse, the parents who are ok with watching pro-homosexual movies. I blame the community for not fixing itself and sticking to its good old virtues, none of this would happen if our lifestyles were right and full of good morals.
Why do someone we know, who had normal and healthy relationships with the opposite sex , decides to become homosexual all at a sudden? That means that homosexuality isn’t something born with us, it is created because of reasons, those reasons are ones that we as communities gave. How? When love affairs and relationships are so easy between any 2 people of the opposite sexes, in other words, when any guy could simply practice a marital relationship without getting married, just meet a girl, know her for a while, and then act as if she was his own wife, live together, do everything together so easily in the name of love. And when it’s so easy for anyone to have a sexual relationship with anyone of the opposite sex, no one blaming them, no one standing in their ways, and everyone making them feel they’re not doing anything wrong, what happens?? When that happens people lose interest in those easy-to-get relationships and start looking for hard-to-get ones, another interpretation is that when a person does something for the sake of trying and no one says it’s wrong and even encourage them to go on, then why not! And I’m saying this because we are all born as balanced beings, and our environment, our problems, and our surroundings effect us, so homosexuals, no matter how hard people try to believe that there are scientific reasons for them to be so, homosexuals build themselves in their own hands, either by turning homosexual at a sudden for the sake of trying, or to create a new trend, or to imitate, or to escape the failure in normal relationships. The first homosexual occurred for one of those reasons, and why do I say they build themselves in their own hands? Because surrendering to the difficult circumstances, and trying to escape the failure through turning homosexual is nothing but weakness and failure itself. We must try once and twice, we must stand up every time we fall, and in the end we’ll find our sweet hearts who complete us, who will help life continue, who will help us have kids of our own, healthy thinking kids and have healthy balanced families.
All religions believe in the completion of both genders, and they all are against breaking the rules of nature and being against the power of reproduction. Even the ones who have no religion know that there should be some sort of union and joining between 2 opposite genders for them to survive.
Every mother and every father should give more time to their children and explain what’s right from what’s wrong. If your own friends turn homosexuals ask them why, talk to them and try to get them back to their senses. Humans are made for the civilization of this planet, could the brain that made our kind reach the moon and use the air to transport, could it be the very same brain that surrenders to such a relationship that has no good in it? Some would claim that the sexual satisfaction is not what they seek in such relationships, then what ? Oh, love? Trust? They understand you? Well that’s no excuse for an unbalanced and weird and dangerous sexual relationship, you could only be friends, good friends and be there for each other, and if you love each other you should care about each other’s future and you should worry about your health and dreams, the dreams that are implanted in us because of hope, hope which is in us to continue our journey in life, life that is given to us to prove ourselves and improve our surrounding and build healthy homes…

The blog I really admire and respect. It discusses a lot of interesting topics and shares meaningful ideas and news. I personally think it’s one of the most enjoyable and successful blogs. Keep up the good work and good luck MMM 🙂
What was written about “Bridges TV” is something I’d love to talk about in this blog.
Life and the way people live it is experiencing a non-stop-change, therefore things are getting out of control so easily, because it has become hard to tell what’s right and what’s wrong! To so many people “right” is that what brings them money, fame, easy life and pleasure no matter what the way they have to follow. And of course each has their own definition of what’s right, and that results in creating so many different ways for them to follow. And over time generations have lost the real right way and started following what already exists or creating their own new “right” ways as well. Conclusion: generations are way off track and are suffering in their lives, for wrong never brings happiness.
Now fortunately there are families who care for their children’s future, and don’t want them to suffer, they just want them to be able to distinguish between true and false, give effort raising them correctly and help them be strong enough to walk their own right way. And this can never happen when children grow up in an environment that lacks the potential to accomplish this, the families alone can’t do it, they need to create a balanced environment so the children will be aware of their religion and tradition. In the case of American Muslims, I find it so normal for them to think of “Bridges TV”, it will give the children a more balanced environment and will assist the parents in protecting their children from the danger of watching inappropriate programs that conclude violence or sexuality for example. I’m not saying the children should be kept away of knowing that such things exist, but timing is so important, and to make sure kids are aware of everything in the right time, the parents should be selective, and this is not possible when all channels see it ok to have cigarette ads provoking the audience to taste challenge, or movies with only blood and kicks in it. It’s true that parents could select the channel, or get their kids to sleep while watching a certain movie, but what happens if the parents want to spend a night late with their kids in the weekend, should they simply turn off TV, or should they watch cartoon videos with their kids every time?
And assuming parents have no problems “getting rid of their kids while watching movies”, would they be able to prevent their kids from watching naked women in ads popping every once in a while, in the same time they’re trying to teach them the position of women in the community and that a woman is not just a beautiful creature but still a respectful mind and a loving soul?! There should be a very strong base on which kids should be brought up, once that is accomplished, there should be less worries about the new generations. And to achieve a strong base a child should be surrounded with a selective family, and there could be neither a trustful selection with nowadays programs, nor a family unity if all the members can’t simply gather in all times around their TV at home fearing some inappropriate thing might be shown…
Anyone can easily notice that children are losing their innocence and becoming so similar to adults in thinking and behaving. A lot of parents are proud of that, forgetting that childhood should take its time and enjoy its peaceful simplicity, and that this childhood will become more mature and responsible in the right time.
I’m 100% with Bridges TV, and even 1000% with RECONSIDERING what must be shown on TV channels all around the world.
