King Husein

Today is his birthday

our loving caring father who left us 8 years ago

king Husein was not just like any king..he was more like a father to every jordanian

we always felt his love sheltering us his kindness and compassion hovering over our heads

we were so proud when anyone asked us where are you from and we would say jordan..and to our amazment Europeans ,or most of them dont know what jordan is

but when we said king husein they used to say ohh..we love him

everyone loved him

children,grwonups,even those who were considered enemies respected him dearly

to our king's soul..to our late father..we still love you and you are still with us

may God rest your soul in peacce

Slogans that invade your life

Driving throught he streets of amman daily we are forcely attacked by the slogans and pictures of our new parliament candidates

this year i feel it to be differant from all other years..what will the falafel owner do when he is elected? or what would the children tv presenter do..more of wa2t il fara7? will ashraf forshayeh go to abdali with her? well i thought maybe she should have slogans like brush your teeth daily or isma3 kilmet baba w mama..

all those talking about fidelity,honesty,integrity..will they even rememeber these words when they reach their goals?

what about trashing the streets with their banners thats started to fall of with the very first showers of rain? will these banners be removed as eagerly as they were put?

or will we suffer from this trash after the electons are done

for me,i am still considering who to vote for

i might vote for a woman coz we wome shouldnt accept the quota and sit here like sheep waiting for the government to throw us a piece of leftovers

the eelctions are on the 20th and we'll see what happens then..till this is over i will still be laughing my heart out when i see the smiling faces of our dear candidates with promising eyes and sweet sweet featurres

The Last Holiday

A movie I watched the other day,simple movie nothing special,starring Queen latifa as Goergia byrd,

the movie is about a simple sales woman who has all those dreams that she keeps in her possibilities book,a man that she has a crush on ,a chef she would love to meet,a place where she dreams of visiting,and to her shock she was told she had a terminal disease and she only have 3 weeks to live..

now this was a turn for her and she decides to take all her savings and go for her dream trip to Karlovy vary in prague,There, thinking she has nothing to lose, Georgia undergoes a metamorphosis--and her transformation affects everyone around her.


Georgia's newly uninhibited personality shakes up staff and guests alike.the movie had a happy ending when she finds out that they were mistaken and that she will live afterall ,her book of possibilities is now her book of realities.this movie made me think :how many dreams do we postpone,how many things we want to do but we put off till later?and when is later?do we need to face death to live ?to appreciate life,live it to the fullest,making everyday a special one?

Just a thoughtwhat I really liked about this movie is the kind of vacation she got,the hotel,the massages,the fooood...oh I really need one like that right now!!

Love vs Addiction

Love VS. Addiction


Baby, To me, you're like a growing Addiction that I can't deny

So..have you ever stopped to think whats the differance between loving someone and being addicted to someone?

some people say: i can't live without you..is this love or addiction?some say: you run in my blood..love? addiction?

if you were given the chance to be away from the one you love for a while without any contact..how would you feel?

What is Love anyway?Is it the need to be with someone all the time?

is it happiness you feel when you're with him/her?is it the feeling of being complete with a certain person?

How can we tell the differance between love and addiction? how do we know that what we feel is love not mereaddiction..habituation..infatuation..passion..or just strong physical attraction?I wonder how many relationships are based on what is believed to be love..
