What happens when we die?

 

This is a reflection of a dying person. While taking her last breaths she remembers that she was asked once: 'what do you think happens when we die?'

She was lying there on the ground covered with blood, she stared deeply at the stars above her.

Why sheep are...well, sheep?!

 

My brother and I were once passing by a herd of sheep. I curiously peered through the car window at the obedient and uniform drove as they crossed the street in front of us. My brother stopped the car and impatiently waited.

Beyond the Veil

 

When I first saw that video published by Aljazeera on Facebook one year ago, I was very proud and happy to see a Moroccan girl piercing her way to one of the most ingenious, and valuable agencies on the planet. I was amazed that these days’ young generation is not only distracted by the massif influence of celebrities and trifles. Some of them are actually keen to explore a field that every atom of our culture goes against it: Space.

Willpower is a muscle!

 

we force ourselves every single day to wake up early, get dressed, have a hasty breakfast, commute to work, and perform monotonous tasks all the day long, only to get back home awfully exhausted, ready to do one thing: sink into the couch, eat, and watch TV until we fall asleep.

Where to get belief? The power of community

 

“Believe in yourself!”, “Be confident!”, or “Have faith!” are all phrases that seem to contain a powerful message and an inspirational motivation, but they turn out in practice to be as weightless as the piece of paper they’re written on. In fact, trying to channel power and energy to believe in oneself would only arouse confusion, doubt, and fear.

Let's regain control!

 

Tell me frankly: what has been your personal goal in life so far? I mean other than getting through the day with your 9 to 5 or 6 full time job, and other than doing the chores, eating and sleeping only to do it all over again the day after?

What are we?

 

Psychology is one of the most interesting and intriguing fields of study that exist. It seems that the more researches are conducted on that domain, the less it turns out we know about ourselves. The mystery of our brain has yet a long way before it could be revealed. Considering the sensitivity and complexity of that organ, plus the ethical barriers, researches and experiments on the human brain proved to be extremely challenging and intricate. The brain is absolutely decisive on how humans operate, behave, and simply be, to the point that is implausible to take comfortable liberty and run tests to explore the possibilities.

So close we can’t reach it!

 

So here is what happened and what basically went wrong:

Every one of us in this life is meant to do something; don't we all have something we love to do, something that we are incomparably good at, something in which we lose ourselves and get transported to another dimension where time and space don’t exist, something that holds our unique signature, something that defines us more and fuel our purpose in a seemingly meaningless life, something creative that inspires us and makes us feel alive: Photography, design, art, music, dance, sports, literature… We tended to call them hobbits or trivial passions, and had virtually thus never been regarded as real careers and serious sources of living.
