Beyond the mirror of your brain

In this world, the pools of blood are too deep that we can’t even float in, within every vein there’s a clot of dirt, within every human there’s a pack of hate towards another, to achieve success you have to kill the person ahead, every child is raised surrounded by the sound of death and the image of pain. But even with all this, there's a pump from the heart that infiltrates the clot in our veins, there exists with every package of hate a crack of love, within every competition, a pure intention, within every mistreated child, a dream. A dream of Hope, a dream of equality, a dream of acceptance, a dream of integrity, a dream of unity. So many dreams that can be condensed to one word only...Peace.


I was looking into the dictionary for the definition of peace, and one of the definitions was “End of war”...I don't completely believe in that; there’s more to peace than just the end of war. There’s more to hope than positivity, more to equality and acceptance than to tolerate each other, more to integrity than the truth, more to unity than holding hands. There are far way more meanings to a word than its definition, far way more things to a word than to just apply it, far way more things to see in something than the reflection of it in your brain.


Everyone is asking for peace, you bleed your lungs out you want peace but a voice isn’t enough to let others hear it, put peace into action, teach others what is peace and when an adult or any person brings you down by saying “there will be no peace, it’s too late” show them they’re wrong, be the stubborn teenager that you are or once were and challenge those who try and shut your hopes and voice down.


This generation, the one to get a grip of the future, we are the greatest fear of our governments, we are the hope and the peace they fear, we are the ones they want to brainwash by the media to hypnotize us from seeing what’s truly going on in the world; because they know we are the voice to break their chains of hatred, we are the voice to break their selfishness, we are the voice of unity, we are the voice to change the world. Break the chains that you are tied up to and stop being under control, start being In control...no matter which country you live in, you can make a difference. Look beyond what the mirrors of your eyes reflect onto your brain.

The Beauty of Diversity

This is a fantastic note written by my friend Hiba..And it's an honor for me to open my blog with her work.

"Look around. No one is the same as you. Everyone has his own nose, own smile, and even own fingertips. You’re unique. That’s the beauty of being different. How tedious would the world be if it were a collection of clones walking along the earth? How insanely lame would it be if you didn’t have anyone to argue with because everyone thinks the same? We resent diversity sometimes, but it's that variety of people that makes this life worth living. It’s the struggle to understand others’ differences, drawbacks, and strong points that make it a little more appealing than expected. Take plastic surgery for instance. Everyone does it and everyone wants to, but how dull is it seeing lookalikes with the same hair and same face. It’s no more thrilling the pursuit of a beautiful lady; they are all beautiful. God created us different because that’s how it was intended to be. To be special is to be your own self and to do what YOU choose to do. Difference improves us as humans and helps improve the universe. If you look for yourself in other people, you will never be able to find yourself. Those questions about who you are and who you want to be should be answered only by you. You are nobody but yourself, and that is a realization everyone should be born with"
