I discovered lately that this life is full of hippocrates. A lot of situations happened that made me stand astonished at how silly and stupid people can get.
I don't knwo why, but i feel that the more the wolrd grows older, the more the "brains" of its citizens become smaller. Also, i feel that people are really becmong aggressive and over protective. A lot of people i know are becoming really defensive. It's as if that the trend here is being aggressive or defensive. It's really weird. Once you ask someone anything, they jump into defending themselves and giving excuses.
I know that your friends at universtiy change constatnly, i mean you might have a best friend or two, but with time, this might change too. People get busy and find new lives, and that's ok. But what astonishes me most is that when you run across a friend that you havn't seen for a long time and go like " heyy zaman 3anik, i missed you weenik?!" Instead of just going with the flow and saying the same back, they reply to you by saying: "heyy, i miss you too, why the hell don't you ask about me??? you changed a lot. I always ask friends about you and i tell them to tell you to call me." lol this is ironic. Instead of telling friends to tell me to call you, why don't you call yourself?? I mean, i can blame you for the exact same thing, but i choose not to, because i know you have your own excuses just like i have mine! The idea is, being defensive and blaming others for insignificent matters suck.
All my life i believed that the Liar, is the worst person in life. I can stand a thief, anyone, but not a liar. Currently, i thought i might add another charachter i abhor, the Selfish. The one who delays the whole work of a group, and won't let anyone work, untill they get done with personal business. The one who does not engage in any matter of any kind, unless it has direct benifit to themselves. The one that will never help you, unless they are sure that they will need something from you in the future. The one that tells the story in a way that makes them sound that they've done all the job, and their team did nothing, although in reality its vice versa, and you to choose to shutup, and let them go with this lie, because you're mature, and you work for your ownslef, and to satisfy your own consious, not to get appraisal from others. I also started hating immitators, who just do what everyone is doing without knowing why. Saddam has been on trial since ever, and now once he's dead, everyone is putting his pictures on their mobile wallpapers and msn display pictures. Suddenly everyone loves him. I call this hippocracy. The same people who said that Saddam is a dictator and evil, are now saying he was a "hero" and a "shaheed" and are already writing him peoms. I even heard people saying that the whole Kimawi war was a lie and that Saddam was throwing "flour" just to scare them, and he wouldn't kill anyone. Anyway, i don't know much about that since I choose to be ignorant about politics becasue usually, after discussing politics i end having nausia.
All what i'm asking from our very mature nation is to base their "feelings" and "sense of belonging" on solid facts, opinions, and then decissions. Don't just do what eveyrone is doing. How special does this leave you? Have your own thoughts and ideas, read, listen, discuss, debate, think, and then form an opnion. You will be much respected for an opnion that you worked on hard to develop, rather than an immitated opinion that missleads you and missleads others. And by respect I mean respect for your self. Enough is enough, we seriously need to grow.
