The Mission

I believe the mission of being on earth is to make the world a better place .. that what is making life worth living for me .. I feel it is not meant to be an endless cycle or just running in loops; you are alive so you have to work in order to afford living and when this cycle comes to an end, nothing happens .. no added value to the universe and accordingly when you die nothing is missed.

2017 Highlights

The first highlight of 2017 was the Magic of Prayers :) I felt it so much "so much" in a couple of things ...

When I prayed hard to travel to Manchester for the CSA training, it was my first business trip ever and first time in the UK as well. It was really so complicated, starting from getting the company approvals, getting the visa and have it on time and definitely going there and meet some people in person... I consider it as a miracle 

Second time, was really hard .. no one has the power to make things except ALLAH. When I discovered this lump and literally, I was scared to death, had a very hard time imagining deeply worst case scenarios :'( Alhamdolilah .. without Allah could never have passed this Alhamdolilah and thankfully x-rays showed it is a benign. Was really a hard experience would never wish anyone to pass through the same .. wish if I can do something to positively impact and help those humans who have to go through this nightmare :) Alhamdolilah till the end of my life 

Also Alhamdolilah, was asking God in Ramdan to help me pray Fajr on time .. still not doing it the best way but am grateful that Allah is helping me to get better on this :) 

The year had a hard start, the last months of 2016 lost my uncle whom i consider my backbone (literally!) and my role model since my early childhood years .. the one I used to feel secured as long as he is alive and many times I wished deeply he stays forever and even I die before him but Allah has a different plan and HIS plan is always the best. Still living in denial is my only defense and Allah the Merciful has directed me to go for the gym, excercise more and lose weight (which is one of my biggest achievment in 2017; I lost 13 kg in a year Alhamdolilah MSA). Tried the Zumba classes for the first time which honestly have a huge impact on me especially in getting over stress and depression :)
At the beginning was so disappointed from my friend Eman's reaction but I just let it go! 

Visited places for the first time in my life inside and outside Egypt; Aswan, EL-Nuba, EL-Fayoum, Manchester, Paris and Barcelona :) 

Michelle Haley is one of the year's highlights :) discovering Nehal EL-Ghazawy as a real honest friend was a great blessing :) 

Alhamdolilah :)

The Thing Am Grateful for the Most!

The First thing am grateful for is being born as a muslim. I feel that whatever I do would never be enough to say Thanks God! 

But Why? .. I don't know ..maybe because I simply love this relegion .. I feel it gives my heart peace and comfort. The feeling that HE is always there whenever you need to talk .. HE listens and has the ultimate power to change things and I don't need anyone or anything in the middle. The feeling that HE undersatnds what I cannot say. because HE is Fair so whatever happens and when life and people are not fair HE is Fair and kind. HE always forgive and HE is ONE. 

When I was a little kid, I had always that thought that after we die, we will wake up again but as different people and I was always scared of the idea that I might not be a muslim. 

It also makes sense for me. It is a blessing to know what is the reason behind your existence and this life is not the end.
