My Big Brother!

My big brother, I don’t know why don’t you believe in yourself!!

My big brother, I’ve always believed in you.. you are so talented, you have so many hobbies, and you are good at most of them.. I was born and you were only 6 years old child.. and you were already a good painter, and a talented musician, you have a wide knowledge now, because you’ve always loved reading.. you’ve always loved Dr.”Mustafa Mahmoud”.. and created the song of “Mustafa Mahmouuuuuud”.. this is another talent you have..
that you are funny..
you know how to make people laugh.. and all your friends love you, who would know a great person like you and can not love?! you are such an adorable guy..

you’ve been always a big brother to me, you’ve been always a friend to me, you used to encourage me  to be a better person, before you become a disappointed man..

you know how to advice people so well, but you don’t know how to advice your own self.. so let me try to do so, let me try to clear some few things, maybe I can change something to the better..

your only problem my dear brother is that you love so many things, so much..
you love music, you’ve always wanted to play guitar, and you were good also at the piano…
you love art, you’ve always loved painting and drawing, you also love photography..
you wanted to make animations..
and so many things I am sure you love, and so many things I don’t know that you do love..
you see where the problem is??

you have to pick one thing and concentrate on it to do it perfectly, you haven’t picked anything till now, but you still have time, believe me, even if you don’t have the equipments, or the money resources, you still have your youth and your mind.. you can earn whatever you want, whatever you wish with those two things.. you can get what you need..

you know you are great, right deep inside yourself you know so, and if you haven’t notice, here I am telling you my brother..

YOU ARE A GREAT PERSON ALREADY, I JUST WANNA YOU BE GREATER, I ACTUALLY WANNA YOU BE THE GREATEST..

Perfection


I’ve always tried to be perfect, but I could NOT..
because every single time I do a perfect thing, I make a sin somehow..

Once I smile in somebody’s face, my smile “STEALS” his soul..

Once I forgive somebody hurt me, it “KILLS” him..

I am trying always to be beautiful from the inside as much as I am from the outside, but people calls this “PRIDE”..

So I am trying sometimes to be ugly, trying really hard, to let those who are less beautiful than me feel they are beautiful too, and that’s “LYING”..

And I always give so much hopefully to gain more, and that’s “GREED”..

So as you can see, I am trying really hard to be perfect, but it seems to lead me to the hell..
and I am not going there alone.. NOWAY..
because I’ve never been that “SELFISH” to enjoy the hell alone!!!

لمه؟

عندما قابلتنى للمرة الأولى سألت متعجبا “من عساه يدعك تفلتين من يده؟!”..
أخبرتك أن هذا الـ”من” طرح علىّ سؤالا مشابها لسؤالك هذا، وكان أكثر تعجبا منك، وبالرغم من هذا فقدنى!!
هذا الـ”من” كنت قد جئتٌه بعد تمنٍ ورجاء وأحلام وصلوات من أجل الحصول علىّ، من أجل إمتلاكى..
ولكن….
كعادة البشر.. دائما ما أضاعونى، بعدما تمنونى!!

ففى البداية، قبل أن يملكونى..
يحلمون بى..
ويصلون من أجل الحصول علىّ..
بل ويحسدون من يمتلكنى!!

ولكن بعدما يحصلون علىّ..
ويملكونى بالفعل..
يزهدونى،
ولا يشعرون بقيمتى،
ولا يشعرون بوجودى إطلاقا!!

رغم أنهم لا يتخيلون حيواتهم من دونى،،،
كيف كانت من قبلى؟!
وكيف ستكون من بعد فقدانى؟!

تلك أشياء لا تأتى إلى الخيال..
ولا يذهب إليها الخيال..

ولكن عندما لايشعر الإنسان بنعمة وجودى فى حياته،
أذهب وأختفى إلى الأبد..

عندها يهتز الكون من حول هذا الإنسان.. ويبدأ فى إستعادة كل شعور كان قد فقد الإحساس به..
يبدأ فى حساب وتقدير الخسائر.. الخسائر التى لم تكن قد خطرت فى خياله قط سابقا..

وعندها يعود ليتمنى ويرجو ويحلم ويصلى..
ولكن هيهات!!
أنا لا أعود لباب غادرته قط.. ولا أفتح صفحة قد طويتها..

ولكن ماذا عساى أن أقول!!
تلك هى طبيعتكم أيها البشر..
لا تشعرون بقيمة ما تملكونه..
حُرمتم التقدير!!

حتى أنت.. الآن.. ورغم تحذيرى إياك..
رغم كل ما رويته على مسامعك..
أعلم تماما بل وأراهنك أنك ستفقدنى بكل إستهتار وحماقة..
وغدا ستقول “ويحى، لقد حذرتنى (الفرصة) ، ورغم هذا أضعتُها”…

Yesterday, today and tomorrow

Yesterday, today and tomorrow..

The whole life is about them.. we all actually have three days in our whole life.. it’s the world’s age..

Don’t you ever regret yesterday.. because there must have been something you learnt in that day..

And everything we learn in life we pay for it… cash money, life years or even attention..

We have to learn from our mistakes..

So we can’t just regret yesterday and wish we could have changed it… because we couldn’t.. even if we have a time machine… we just COULDN’T..

But today you can be a better person.. better than yesterday.. and you can plan for tomorrow..

Actually it’s all about today..

Because today was yesterday’s tomorrow, and here it comes…

If I have something I wanna do tomorrow, it’s the right time right now.. because right now was tomorrow somehow,,

If I’m gonna sleep today, there’ll be no tomorrow tomorrow..

As if I am dying today, there’ll be no tomorrow..

Just live your life like that, Today was yesterday’s tomorrow… so I should do something.. I should be something..

Today will be tomorrow’s yesterday… so I must not do something I’d regret tomorrow… even if that thing was doing NOTHING!
