The mountain loneliness

From a while, I read one of my friend’s messages telling me that she felt so lonely! I was touched then and felt that she was so week and told her not to feel so. Have u seen the mountain... Despite being alone, it always tells us “I’m the mountain... I’m the symbol of firmness and hope”. You know, it has been there for ages standing still with firm and strength. It never fell down unless -for sure- from the fear of God. Sometimes you find it in a desert or a forest, others you may find it far away floating alone in the ocean… Oh god you have created that mountain a long time ago witnessing the history of mankind, and to hold the planet earth. For your convenience everything is created for a reason.
Do you know that a mountain has roots beneath it? They help him to stand still. So my dear every one of us has roots, you have to fetch for those roots of yours.
You know you can read, practice an exercise or engage yourself in a hobby or you may communicate with your friends, that will relief you a lot.
By the way have you ever tried to stand beside a mountain and tried to look at its summit...What was your feeling then? So week... So tiny, right? What about its creator? Hmm let me tell you a secret then, the mountain never feel lonely as it always occupies its time by rremembrance of Allah and by the praise of God.

Butterfly cocoon

Are you a lady and retired from work because of a happy event has been happened for you? A new baby has come and you have to take care of? You are a new mother now just enjoy being so…At first you will say: “Oh my God -Thanks god for sure-  what about my work I’m a workaholic person and I’m used to go to work and put myself in the work challenges ,what about my study and my work career? AND What about this little creature that has no one but you to take care of? I’m telling you that you have to sacrifice your work for the sake of your child…Oh but I’ve to work, I can’t let my career down... OK..Have you ever thought about a butterfly cocoon? In the butterfly life cycle, the caterpillar eats a lot… in other words a “gourmand” until it reaches another phase which is being in a cocoon for a while then it is turned to be a new pretty butterfly! Did you get what I mean? You are in a new phase now which is taking care of your baby until you reach a time when he/she can depend on him/her self; At this point..I think that it’s time to be a new butterfly that can fly and seek for a suitable flower - a job - J .Then while you are in the cocoon you have to work not as being at work but in a manner that suits your new stage.

Palm tree glory (2)

I just kept looking and thinking why the palm tree has such forgiveness! I‘ve climbed an old palm tree by my thoughts; well it was high enough that when I looked down I found people are so tiny, are so little! Aha.. she is dealing with people that throw stone to get the dates from it as their mother! A mother whatsoever her children grow up and if they offended her; she never hates or is displeased from them. She just raises her hand to Allah to pray for them, just as the palm tree that waves by her leaves!. She always stands teaching making a good example to be followed and to learn from. It is strange right?  *Blessed be Allah, the best Creator* “فتبارك الله أحسن الخالقين”.

Palm tree glory (1)

Every time I pass by a palm tree or a set of them; it gives me a feeling of glory. I really think that every creature in this planet has a hidden energy that it could give to human being, even if -in many times- he/she couldn’t realize this at the moment, but it really affects us. Let us consider the palm tree when it is being hit by a stone it give the delicious, nutritious dates, when you just gaze at it you feel a discipliner glory,I feel it reaches the sky!! so why shouldn't our hopes will be.Try to touch its trunk you could feel that a negative energy has discharged from your hands. You shall feel comfortable when you plant a bunch of baby palm trees in your backyards garden, just meditate them and how the air breath make their leaves wave back to you, and whispering you by their charming music. It also reminds me by the hereafter and how there should be that good people with high necks and they will be apart from the sea sweat. At last let’s all be a palm tree from inside.

Don’t be a big Zero ”0”


Desperate.. Everything you do not seem to be so good..”My Boss doesn’t like my work”.. well it is not the end of life! Life is fruitful and full of hope and better opportunities.
I once heard a story from my father ‘mercy be upon him’ about one of his colleagues that decided to commit suicide because of the pressure that his boss caused to him!!
He just said “my work doesn’t go fine, I’m just a big loser, nothing I make pleases my boss, look my friend this is the last cup of tea I shall take in my life, as I’ll commit suicide today at night!”.
 My father told him..OK fine please go ahead, but before you finish your cup I want you to tell me what you see in this paper, then my father draw the sun, the moon, the earth and named it “Sun,moon,earth”.
He asked his friend what you can see in this paper my friend?, His friend replied do you think me stupid this is “The Sun”, “The moon”, “The Earth”, Then my father asked please point to Africa on this paper, his friend pointed “located here on this large spot” then my father replied and where is Egypt? His friend answered “It is here on this smaller area”,then my father said "where is the nile delta?" his friends replied "it seems to be this very narrow spot" then my father asked him so where is your company on this smaller area?, his friend smiled and said “it couldn’t be seen you have to have a telescope to locate it” then my father said and where is that silly Boss that derived you to kill yourself? His friend just laughed a very big laugh and said I’ll quit this job tomorrow.
After 10 years or so my father and that guy met and he was the general manager at a big Company in Egypt.
Life is precious just maintain it, don’t be a big Zero, try to analyze your problems and detect where are the defects and solve them, and ask for support from God.

Deal as HedgeHogs dealt

Yesterday I had a phone call from one of my friends telling me that she was deceived and she will never trust anyone again and that no one deserves to be trusted!! I told her that she had approached a reality.

I really believe that when we truly trust in God we shall receive a light that elaborate things in front of us, Many people always treat another ones they met based on the first impression...well you should deal –specially dealing with friends- as the story of the hedgehogs the philosopher told us:
It was that they suffered from the severe cold so they get very close to each other to feel warmth, but they get hurt from their pointed spines, so they moved apart but they felt too cold again!!,
The wise hedgehog told them "you must leave a space between you and your friends in order to achieve the warmth and security with the least amount of pain"..
   Friendship is as this and you should realize that no body, Just NO BODY is perfect,You should trust yourself, and you should know that in every person there is the dark side of his personality just don’t fetch for it.

  In my opinion “People is all children –grown up children- if you dealt with your child as if he is a good person, he will be a good one and vice versa”. As you can see we never can live without friends, people who we share our joy and sorrow, but you should go close in a planned manner and beware of hidden people thistles.
