“but”

If you are a truly worthy person…someone who has earned their values…someone who is strong to face hardship and confront it…someone who has ideals and morals and goodness inside…you must be righteous and confident…but: you can’t be arrogant!

If you know you have foes…you admit you have foes…you can listen to someone telling you about your foes…then you are a very good candidate to correct those foes…not doing that is not proud…it is stupid.

If you can’t handle a relation/job/task because you are certain that it requires much more than your abilities and what you can offer…do the right thing and let go to let someone who has the knowledge and skill to handle it…hanging on repeatedly is not devotion in that case….It’s selfish.

If it feels anything but really joyful to give…give time…give help…give money…give advice…give attention…then you are not a giving person and you’re giving while feeling strained, requires attention/therapy only if you desire to upgrade yourself…giving while resenting it isn’t good from you nor for you and definitely not for the other person…in fact it’s contaminating.

If you want to be a special human being that is a man full of all the amazing qualities great humans strive for: you must feel and act like it. you can’t say you are someone while you don’t feel it nor act like it…wanting to be a true man and a special humane person doesn’t make you one…it only makes you: a wanna be!

If you feel that your task in life is to formalize/deformalize people towards what you think is good, then you will waste your life being mislead by yourself. your life task is living fully by exploring your abilities and appreciating everything life has got to offer…in the process you might help people or hurt them…inevitable!! fixing people out of a chore is actually a crime against humanity…you can accept them or not…you can advice and invest in them upon their request or approval…if you hate it or hated them in the process you have the right to turn the page peacefuly and move on towards your journey as in life we all learn by our goodness and our mistakes…but you can’t live just to correct…in that case you are not doing goodness…you are robbing goodness!

مابقتش عارفة انا ايه…برّاوية ولا مستحيّة

ولا انا الإتنين على شوية مثالية غبية

ولا مش عارفة اندمج فى الزخم عشان من زمان وحدانية

ولا فاقسة الضحكة اللى من برا والشتمة الجوانية

ولا قافشة ع الدنيا المتشطرة على ولية

ولا خايفة من جروح مُدّعى الحنية

ولا رافضة تحكمات السلطوية

ولا مرعوبة اصبح الاقينى فى غربة قاسية عليا

فمتدارية

ومستخبية..فى ايام هى هى

وواجبات تربوية عقلانية مادية وبلمستى فوضوية

وابداع حُر زى السحاب محبوس فى صفحة من دية

وبأغلى صُحاب حلوين وعلى مسافة بُعاد مكتفية

وبعجزى عن ترك نفسى انا مخبية،

روح جديدة غير اللى اعرفها بصه للسما ومستنية،

صوت ولحن ولون ورسم بالكلمات السخية

واعجاز جديد ينَبِّت ثقة بمعانيها اللى من زمان منسية

وتحدى مغامرة برّية وشغف بيزغزغنى زى فراشة شقية

المشكلة انى مش حالمة ولا بعرف رومانسية

فأحلّى الحقايق وانقش واقع حياتى بشريطة وردية ا

نا كده..برّاوية ومستحية وغلاباوية واونطجية ومستقوية

ومش ناقصة قساوة ولا  دناءة ولا هايبة حُكم المُر لانى عن عونه مستغنية!

فلأكون برّاوية

Tonight…one year ago

, ,

Tonight…at exactly this hour: 2:52…I had just returned from Tahrir…I had seen with my own eyes for the first time in my life what is “a birth of a revolution”…I had smelled the scent of fear strengthening the revolutionists…witnessed brutal force and raw evil capturing free spirits…and I knew deep down my trembling heart that what i experienced changed me forever.

It opened me up to new dimensions of self exploration…uncovered layers of fear and pealed them off one at a time…introduced me to the bloody powers of the predators that is not wrapped in romantic stories or urban legends or political interpretations…and eye opened the true value of what i always possessed and practiced but in a smaller personal scale: Mighty will..Self value..hardcore esteem!!

I saw the Jan25 Egyptian revolution.

And today..I saw the growth and maturity and the milestone of the amazing Egyptian journey…and we continue.

One year from now i couldn’t breathe…

Today…I breathe full lungs…I breathe honor and hope.
