I'm back - starting over

So I haven't been regularly writing in my blog, beside my last post was like a year and half ago. So I decided as I like to write and share stuff with other people, I'm going to share not only my thoughts, but also whatever I can find fun, interesting, intellectual, or just new to me and others - starting today.

I'm listening to a new band which I really liked immediately - it's named "Kaskade". They are remixing and playing songs with others - looks a lot like lounge music, try it if you like that music genre - or just try it and tell me what do you think, and if you recommend similar bands or songs.

Enjoy,
Amy.

Move On

Have you ever lost a love?? whether it just wasn't meant to be or it was because of disease/death/...etc

You feel like your soul has been took off of you, it's hard to breathe and live...A cut so deep that it leaves a hole inside of you. Everything reminds you of every past moment you had: a place, a look-alike person, words, a car, the weather, dates... everything. Not only you want to be alone, you want to be on a whole other planet just to be left alone, lying there not doing anything not moving just... staying there, staring at the space and thinking "What happened and led me to this??". You lose every meaning to life, and words like everything's gonna be fine", "you're better than a lot of others out there", "maybe this is for the best" just don't have a meaning at the time, especially if it was something like "I told you so". What's best to say about this is don't give it much thinking cause you may never know - at least now - why they happened: the love and the loss.

There was a saying I read before that was "to love and lose better than not to love at all" but I don't believe in this, cause the loss is very heavy and the costs are paid from your very own feelings that you'll never get back. Better to say that don't love until you are sure of many things first, don't give your feelings that easily because they are very precious, and most important don't ever lose faith in love cause it's there and it exists but may be not the exact way we imagine it. Slow down and take your time, no rush about that. Love isn't words cause they are the easiest to give away, love is actions. Love is a two-way flow, giving is more important than taking, a reason why we should be together. Love is more beautiful and meaningful that just being the stupid relationships we see nowadays.

If you lost love or been hurt by someone you loved let it go, move on and live life cause whether you like it or not: life goes on. Days are passing and the clock is ticking so don't waste them and make the best of that life you've been given. Start to take a look around you to see how others are doing then you'll start to understand the words I mentioned above that are said by others. Make whatever changes to start having a new meaning to your life; a new career, a hobby, a trip, anything. Don't worry if you are looking for those feelings when you want to have again and couldn't find them, maybe it's also not the right person or time. Give yourself time to heal and feel better.

Being alone isn't a bad thing, it's even better than being with someone who simply doesn't care, someone who does not appreciate your being in their lives. Look around you and use the love you currently have. Family love, friends love, job love, any legitimate way to invest your feelings so they won't just dry up and die. Keep them alive and flaming,love and give more of it to see the best results. Above all: Love Yourself so others are able to love you, love yourself and accept it in every way it is and always try to make it better and better. Every person is a beautiful person in their own way and everyone deserves to be loved so never give it up. Another saying I heard in a movie and I like is that "If we're all alone, then we're all together in that too".

P.S.
I'm not mentioning loving Allah cause it's not in the comparison it's above everything else and it can not be replaced by any way.

Stop Whining !!

I've noticed lately that a lot of people are whining about a lot of different things... waking up so early in the morning everyday, not doing anything but work in their lives, getting older (older like being 28 or 29 or even to their 30's and 40's), having to deal with a stupid boss, getting home to find someone who cooked them something they didn't really like, being ALONE (like myself these days), children giving them headaches, weather, transportation, brothers and sisters bla bla bla

People STOP WHINING about non-sense while other people have REAL PROBLEMS around us !!

Stop whining about work and getting early for jobs or working too much because a lot of people don't have jobs or worse - they have indecent jobs. You may be able to change your job while others can't that makes them feel they are in slavery.

Stop whining about not doing anything in your lives but work because at least you own your own lives to decide what to do with them.

Stop whining about getting older to be 28 or 30 or 40 yrs old as long as you are achieving things in your lives whether in career, family, personally whatever... then what about getting 70 or 80, or what about being 40 looking back at your lives seeing it worth NOTHING - no achievements or anything.

Stop whining about food you don't like or not cooked properly while others can't find enough food for them or others they are supporting.

Stop whining about being alone cause when you have friends, family (including husbands and wives), co-workers, neighbors then you are NOT.

Stop whining about your children because mainly: thank GOD you have any, others fight and struggle for years to have just one, others have children that are not healthy and they are willing to give their own souls to see them good and surviving.

Stop whining about weather, transportation, family issues, TV because it's just stupid.

Stop whining cause you are only spreading negativity in the air.

Be positive, be thankful for everything you have, be there for others the same way you want them to be there for you.

If you want to change something in your life go ahead and do it while you can. DO anything that makes you feel happy and satisfied as along as it's not forbidden or hurting others.

Please spread the positive energy, smile at yourself and others and be happy... we need every little bit of it each second.

I Need a Change

What is it that we do in life?? we live. Some things we do automatically like education, work, careers may be marriage and constructing a family. Other things we do by our own choice. The problem is that you are always taken away by the basic things you started doing in your life thinking these are the only essential things you do not needing any other, and then - after it's too late - you find out that you should have done these things while you had the chance.

Whatever you feel like doing just go ahead and do it as soon as possible. Whether it's a trip, something new you want to learn or experience, a book to read, feelings you want to express - just about anything. If you want to do it alone just do it alone, if not then find someone you love to share with you that experience. Feed your soul from time to time, not only your body or brain. When your soul is full you are happy and it will reflect you and those who surround you in every aspect you can imagine.

Whatever you want to do just do it, if you can't now just add it to your bucket-list assuring yourself you are going to :)
