Since I was young, I’ve been wondering about the reason behind why people struggle. I always found it strange that despite achieving on the technological field, we are unfortunately retreating on the human one, something that is applicable on different levels of human interaction, starting with the minor one; personnel, passing by the medium one; community, the major one; society, and ends with le plus grande; nations.
As I grew older, via reading and pondering, my scope of wonder was limited into one simple question: why do people interact positively or negatively with each other? Well I’m trying to find an answer via this post and hopefully we may reach the light at the end of the tunnel.

We always do math on daily routine, so it’s normal when we add 16 to 51 to get a sum of 67, but wait a minute, what about identifying such number, 67 Roses, Guns or what?
Well, it is 67 Million people! Yes; this number is the UNHCR’s estimated one of Refugees + Internally Displaced People (IDPs) in our world as of 2007 [source]
Oh my God, I’m horrified and my horrification is not merely because of quaintly, which is terribly scary, but mainly what lies beneath such number; humans just like me and you who may differ in the colour but share the same suffer!
Hereby it is not a number anymore; rather it’s a giant mirror that reflects our state of mind on Earth.
Oh mon dieu! After less than two years we shall entre the 2nd decade of our 3rd Millennium yet I still wonder about the mentalities behind committing atrocities against other people just because they are not sharing the same point of view, regardless the race or religion!

“Wow! She is hot!” + “Oh! She is not hot at all” are the most popular common phrases that the majority of Men use while describing Women. Actually, such attitude is very disgusting to the point that makes me feel sick and this is directly translated into my favourite response: ‘Blah Blah Blah!’
I’m not comfortable with the status of women in our societies either locally or globally; women had been stereotyped into this lower rank disgusting category of ‘Hot or Not’ which became the fuel for this endless debate among different discourses either being liberal or conservative that have nothing to deal with women except the body.
I found it very strange in such discourses how lights have been spotted over the external features of women, which I call ‘Hardware’ whereas same lights have been dimmed when it comes to the internal features represented in her mind, which I call ‘Software’!

How many times did you hear questions like these: “Are you beautiful?” - “Is she beautiful?” - “Is he handsome?”
Oh! Please don’t count! These questions are very common in our daily life because beauty is one of the magical words in the human vocabulaire, regardless the language, since humans tend to seek things that satisfies their senses with pleasure.
This perspective is typically formulated within what so called “outer beauty” which simply the attributes of a human that are being perceived by others. Hereby “beauty idols” arouses that people not merely iconize through out history but also are called to follow as their roll models.

Assalaam Akikom wa rahmat ALLAH
Peace and blessings be upon you
Hello Everybody
- Hicham
- Yes?
- Ramadan is leaving.
- What? Leaving? It had just arrived!
After this short dialogue, I found myself writing this post. I’m trying to understand my feelings, as Ramadan is supposed to leave us after whole month of hospitality.
ALLAH (Almighty) told us that Ramadan is just few days that quickly pass. Yes, it passed as if a jet plane was passing over a small island, Subhaan ALLAH. Do not ask me from where I got this expression because this is what I really feel.
In fact, I don’t know how to express my feelings right now. It is a mix of happiness + sorrow, fear + hope in the same time! Strange but true.
