Life In A Nutshell
I know I’ve been living for only 29 years (half of them I was a teenager that I thought I knew everything in life LOL).. I know some of you might think I’m sooo old.. others wish they were as young as I am.. some think I don’t have enough experience to talk about this, and others might understand that experience is not measured only by age.. I read this post yesterday at mydream blog, it really saddened me to see her learn about life the hard way, and I think she has a long journey to go through.. I hope if she passes by here, she might learn one or two things from me, instead of learning them the hard way... Life.. In three words I can sum up everything that I learned about life, “ IT GOES ON.” When the going gets tough, make yourself realize that no matter what your problem is, someone is/and always will be fighting a harder battle. Tears don’t help problems and whining won’t make things better. Have faith but understand that faith makes things possible, not easier. Have hope, but understand that without doing anything, nothing gets done. Be there when people need you, because in order to have friends you must first be one. Keep an open mind; you never know what you might learn. Never compromise your standards to anyone, do it for you. Remember that laughter makes the world go round. Beware of the person who has nothing to loose.. Keep in mind, those who gossip to you may also gossip about you. Don’t make promises that you can’t keep. Say only what you mean, and don’t believe everything that you hear, because one day, the story will be about you. Count your blessing, not your troubles. Never waste an opportunity to tell someone that you love them, because you never know what tomorrow has in store for you. Give people a second chance, because no one is perfect, Love all that you can, give all that you have, smile away your days, and dream away your nights. Well, Life.. it could be wonderful if you wanted it to be.. |

TheDon:
أنا وايد عجبني كلامك..بس لما تحاول تطبق جزء من النصائح أنا شخصيا ما راح أقدر لا تعتقد مهما طالبوا الجنس الناعم بالمساواة لما يصير الموضوع فيه عاطفه الانثى سريعة التأثر وايد أكثر من الرجل أنا وايد متعاطفه مع ماي دريم لأني مريت بالضبط بنفس الموقف بس بوجود اصدقائي و صديقاتي تخلصت من تبعات الذكرى المريره عشان شذي أنا من مؤيدين ماي دريم للفضفضه...لأن ما تتخيل شلون الكلام يريح..و بعدين احنا اهني اشمهنتنا؟؟؟عشان نساعد بعض مو شذي؟
Thanks TheDon :) I usually pass by ur blog without leaving any comments, And i was surprise to have found a comment on me in ur blog and i appreciate ur advices.:)
Nice, I am learning from your wisdom. By the way thanks for the voting... my percentage is going up now :))
My favorite two lessons are:
1. Count your blessing, not your troubles.
2. Say only what you mean, and don’t believe everything that you hear, because one day, the story will be about you.
Wonderful attitude.....the saying here is what doesn't kill you will make you stronger.....!It is true.
your words are inspirational and refreshing!! and you're right "it goes on" so we need to keep it moving !!
Thanks
This is the best of all your posts Don, Hip Hip Hoorah
Purg, you said it bro..
Nanoa, you don’t have to take lessons from all of them, if you got to find one thing that helped you cope with life better, that’s more than what I am hoping for all of you.. and I totally understand your view here..
Mydream, this post is dedicated to you, because I hope you would get to know a lesson in life without learning it the hard way, I read your blog and I would want to help, but I don’t know if I can.. I hope this at least made you feel better.. :)
My favorite Kuwaiti astronaut, I’m voting for you every time I get the chance, since we can vote only once a day, I know I’m only one, but I hope people would take the time to do the same for you as they did for me with the chopper contest.. and I always said that I will return the favor anytime I could..
Jelly Belly, that’s my aim after all.. to make someone learn from all the mistakes I made to get to know these things..
Chris, And stronger I became sweetie..
LUMINOUS, first welcome to the blogger addict meeting LOL.. No really, welcome to our virtual community, from what I read in your blog, you would see another side of Kuwaitis over here (not only this blog, but in most of the Kuwaiti blog community), different prospective of how people think in Kuwait, unlike the typical stereotypes.. I hope I was as inspiring as you wanted (from you profile) and if I am, that just makes me happy and proud..
Rabab, I swear I knew you’re gonna say that.. I was just waiting for that comment all day LOL.. but you know I’m not always that deep.. :))
"Fart proudly, burp loudly, and curse openly" ADG Frat moto hehehe time for a beer
Have hope, but understand that without doing anything, nothing gets done.
this is really true.
very true,, alot of deep things that are said here made me think ur like 40 or something
Very positive & insighttful attitude.
It is our experiences and not our age that make us wise and knowing. However, some experiences have to be "lived" in order to be understood- like a woman giving birth or dealing with the loss of a loved one (grief).
I read your next post (above), but couldn't comment because there was no link. Hang in there, KCD. Things will settle down for you eventually, and then you'll be back to blogging to your heart's content.
Peace.
Altruistic dad, thanks for your comment, but I usually don’t open a comment section for the self notes.. it’s just a quick thing from me to me and to let others know what’s going on..
But I totally appreciate your response..
Thanks again.. :)
You know what.....you make a lot of sense. I am young, I know, but I have been through so much in my life and I know there will be more obstacles coming my way for me to overcome. I've found a lot of piece of mind in your post and you are have a very positive attitude towards life.. I admire that.
Thanks for sharing =)
