WE Like Being like….
Dear all ,
Lately I have been going to several places in order to meet some youth for some sort of a research , we went to play station places and gathering coffee shops where they smoke Argeeleh , ( I was hoping I could find them else where , bas hatha elli jako)
It was really surprising how most of our ” Elite” youth like to look like anything but themselves , you can trace back the size of the nose to the days of Nimer El 3idwan , but as you start looking at the hair and cheeks you get confused, I also found different people living a total lie simply because trying to look like someone who they saw on TV, is very hard and would take so much time each day.
I also saw others who are on the other side of this equation, but the majority was like the first type.
how bad can this be?
What I am trying to say , the media has taken us off course with our marsh to progress , it hooked us to these illusive chains that are holding us still for most of our giving years. there are a couple of disadvantages for time wasting , whether it was playing time , or time spent on looks , or time spent on finding ones self , or time figuring out the path to cross this life in.
To get closer to what I want to say for a whole community let us take a metaphor , When calculating the time wasted in a company by employees , on several matters , such as late arrivals or internet entertainment , the money paid for them is also considered wasted, so the amount of money and time wasted are added together to indicate the potential of this company’s progress that is going down the drain.
Same applies in a country, or a whole nation , just exchange money with prosperity and expectations and employees with citizens.
In Israel , the new born is fed their Cause from his mother’s breasts , then he sings it in schools , he applies it theoretically in the university and then lives it day to day in his work and daily life. That is why they are speeding ahead of us.
We are still busy with freedom calls and liberty laws , while history tells us that such laws came after nations uprising . We are still hearing calls for becoming Global , ( AMERICAN OR EUROPEAN ) while we forget that the amount of history and culture we have , can be built on rather than calling for another civilization imitations. Shall we progress acknowledging who we are ,our civilization will progress with acceleration.
We need to concentrate on our path , I think our problem was indoctrinated in our culture through Media , straight to our homes where we feel safe and secure, such invasions has flipped most of our lives into a total fake ones, to find out after time passes and wasted that we have been fobbed off , and all the time we spent was wasted on nothing , simply nothing , maybe personal professional development , but nothing for the bigger cause.
We believe that the more our youth gets emptied from the inside the better chance they will naturally call for soul fulfillment, where they can live without fear , where they can find peace after joining the path of progress.

My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that ‘achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others, and that’s nice, too, but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success.’
