How hard can it be to get over a reverse cultural shock? Well, learning more about the reverse cultural shock kind of made it a bit hard to get over it. Dr. Bates from the American University gave us a lecture on how to deal with the reverse cultural shock, and he made it clear that there was no cure for it, but that it was not a disease.  

Yes ! I've always wanted to know the secrets behind everything created. I love everything from the sky, the outer space, the stars, the moons, the planets, the solar systems, the galaxies, to the smallest sub-particle of an atom. I believe there is a Universe inside an atom, as large as there is surrounding us, or even perhaps a Multiverse. Since I was a child, I believed the Bermuda Triangle was the location where the Gold Wall of Dhul-Qarnayn (Alexander) sunk under the sea, and that is what created the magnetic field there, and even perhaps the gog and magog were trapped in there, but then again, it could be a wormhole or a hidden portal, from one location inside the Bermuda triangle, to another location right around it somewhere, or there could be many small weaker wormholes or hidden portals, leading to different locations on earth, and you never know, one could even be opening somewhere else on the other side of this Universe, or into another Universe.  (Well, that was just wh...

Think of all the people that Donald J. Trump has offended so far.  What are the traits of a good leader or a politician? Think of Abraham Lincoln, think of Nelson Mandela, think of Martin Luther King, think of the founder of Pakistan, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, think of Jesus. Now, think of Donald J. Trump, and his big mouth, and the way it moves when he boasts about how rich he is, and then insults everyone he feels is not important to him or his victory. I'm sure you must have or have had a grumpy, ill-mannered, bullying kind of a person, somewhere in your neighborhood, who just assumes you are going to be in his way making his life more difficult. That is him. That is Donald J. Trump. He is your nasty neighbor.

This is quite simple. Not hard to understand. In March 2011, anti-government protests broke out in Syria. Somebody somewhere instigated a revolution, which led to an uprising against a dictatorship, leading to the dictator bombarding his own people, which led to creating the "bad guys/terrorists", that led to the world heading in that direction to kill the "bad guys", which led to numerous civilian deaths, which led to strengthening the "bad guys", and the battle continues.

Passion is a remarkable driving force that can ignite our souls and lead us to champion various causes. It's a feeling that resonates deep within us, inspiring us to stand up for what we believe in. In this blog post, I'd like to share my journey of rekindling my passion, specifically in advocating for the image of my religion, while also reflecting on my past passions and adventures. Nurturing My Passion for a Worthy Cause There's something truly admirable about individuals who are unwavering in their commitment to a good cause. I deeply respect those who are passionate about making the world a better place, and I've come to realize that I too share this passion. My fervour lies in protecting and preserving the image of my religion, steering it away from those who tarnish its reputation. For far too long, I've observed the missteps of so-called custodians of my faith, and it has fueled my determination to correct their misguided actions. This passion keeps me going...

We are unfair to humanity. We love sad stories and tragedies. We sympathize with people who suffer, and we want them to keep on suffering. We enjoy their sufferings, and we want to be the ones to save them, or love to take credit for saving them, or we constantly feel the need to look for a saviour for those going through pain, and we love to blame people for not caring for the sufferings of humanity. We love to have someone to blame for something. That's what we love the most. If by mistake anyone finds a way out of their sufferings, or succeeds in helping themselves or those around them, we are most certainly not pleased with them. Oh we are not pleased with them at all. What are they thinking trying to stand on those two undeserving feet of their own? How dare they defy the rules of this society? They are evil. We were not even done with mourning their sufferings, tragedies and losses yet? How dare they rise up and fight back? They do not deserve our sympathy any more.  ...
