  • I was told recently that: Because I am muslim, it is safe to assume that I am illiterate. Because I am an arab, I live in a tent in the desert. Because I am a woman, it is safe to assume that I was forced to marry when I was 20. Because of all the above, Life isn't fair to me. 1 Why do people assume that I am unfortunate because I was born an Arab? Why do they think I am illiterate because I am a Muslim female? Why do they think that they know all about "poor-me" without bothering to ask? Why is it that they talk down to me and think me stupid? Why is it that they assume I am dumb because I cover my hair? Why are they shocked when I get higher grades? I do have a brain beneath my scarf!!! Why can't they accept that I am proud of who I am, of my family and my religion? Why is it OK to be a 15 yrs old single mother and then complain of my age if I got married by 20? Why do they assume that I am an intolerant,
  • I've always heard that disaster comes in 3s. Within 4 months of my great grandma's death, my mother and my uncle died. After than, My great uncle died, and within 6 month, his daughter and grandson died. I know some might say that these deaths shouldn't affect me, but we are close to our relatives. 1 Yesterday, my one year old step-sister was taken to the hospital because she suffered some kind of convulsions. They are running more tests to rule-out epilepsy. Also, My step-mother (35 weeks pregnant) was taking to another hospital because she was having trouble with the baby. Both are still in the hospitals and are expected to remain there for a while. All i can think of is who's next? 2 Please ppl: If you read this, take a moment to send God a prayer for them. And if you don't believe in God, Send him a prayer nevertheless. 3 Today is the anniversary of my mother's death.

  • and the reason is......... LOSS 1 No, not a loved person but a loved thing. I've lost my mobile today and with it, 1.5 years worth of memories. I usually take about an average of 10-30 pics per day, so you do the math... 2 I have 3 slightly older mobiles and 2 of the latest versions of Nokia and SonyEricsson. I don't want them I want the one I use. 3 I AM NOT IN ANYWAY SHALLOW, STUPID, SHALLOW OR IGNORANT. I might be a bit spoiled but you can blame my parents for that. 4 I am extremely attached to all my stuff, be it a mobile, laptop, toys, ....etc. I feel the loss acutely. I have an acute depression. 5 6 No it is not silly. It is perfectly sane. It's like I've lost a child.
