Dear Diary;

My first ever 24 hour shift is almost over and it sucks ....
It’s my 1st and last isA ... I've turned into a beast by the end of this miserable shift...
I'm realistic, yeah some people can take it...
and actually I can, only if we're treated like humans ...
Ya3ny For god’s sake, how can we work, rest, or even sleep without even a fan...
Its August ya 3alam...

Life is a random pattern of actions and reactions. Things happen, or are made to happen and subsequently a reaction happens. What comes first of that we all know, but which one should be faster? Which one should not take the longer time to occur? The action or the reaction?

Ozzy: Why do you think human race hasn't extinct yet?
Essraa: "He just adapted"

A couple of days ago, I had a little chat with a friend who told me something which made me THINK DEEPER. He asked me “Why do you think human race hasn't extinct yet?” Although He went through different stages of life, some animals are becoming extinct now and others developed due to natural changes!”. Thank God for our respectable schools I answered quickly without even thinking "He just adapted." After answering I found myself thinking of my answer as if it’s the first time to hear it. Metaphorically, it meant something deep. That’s it! I concluded that those people who blame circumstances curse their lives, blame others and pity themselves are just too lame. Stop and adapt!

Remember this, that very little is needed to make a happy life.
–Marcus Aurelius

What is "Happiness"? What brings inner peace and calmness into our lives? Is it that job that we long to have? Or is it that boyfriend/girlfriend that we think we will be happier if we had them? Is it Money? Probably, most of the time, its about Money.

First I would like to inform that these series of articles will be about Egypt and life there and how I think we can be brave again and fight to have our rights by the good and simple way away from what people say by revolution and those nonsense talks which come from people who don't even know what they are talking about in first place. They just read some newspapers and watch TV and they think now they are something. So let's start…
