An Ode to my Wonderful TEACHERS

When we were kids, MOST of us hated school, we hated homework, we hated quizzes and exams... We hated our TEACHERS!!


Most of us wanted to go to school to have fun with our friends, to play sports, to take part in clubs and activities, or to meet that girl/boy we liked... Some did not even want to go to school at all!!

Most of us did not understand: What would we use Geometry for in real life!!
Most of us did not get it: Why do we need to learn about ancient history, it is history, who cares!
Most of us did not like it: This complicated Physics is irrelevant, I want to be a writer when I grow up, why waste my energy on it!
Most of us did not tolerate it: So much material to cover, so many quizzes and exams, too much pressure!!

Most of us took it out on our TEACHERS: Disrespect, Practical Jokes, Pranks, and some really Nasty Pranks... We were creative in ways to get our frustration on our TEACHERS!

MOST of us were wrong my friends...

TEACHERS made us who we are today...
TEACHERS shaped a lot of our talents, strengths, and powers...
TEACHERS prepared us for real life, for the tough journey, for our future...
TEACHERS sacrificed themselves to ensure we can make it in life...
TEACHERS were generous and loving humans who gave us priceless wealth...
TEACHERS spent most of their lives dedicated to us, the mostly ungrateful students...

This post is not about the science or art or talent of teaching or education or any of that!! There are professionals and experts for this!!

This post is a Thank You, a genuine, heartfelt, grateful Big Thank You to all my wonderful TEACHERS...

This post is an apology, a very long overdue apology, for not appreciating and acknowledging all my wonderful TEACHERS...

This post is an Ode to my Wonderful TEACHERS, on the occasion of TEACHERS DAY yesterday in Lebanon...

Thank Mrs. Hannoush for making me fall in love with English Writing...
Thank you Mr. Baghdadi and Mr. Ibrahim for making me adore Arabic classes...
Thank you Mr. Abou Daher and Mr. Boudaher for making our English classes more like fun lessons in life, not just English...
Thank you Mr. Qaisi and Mr. Hannoush for expanding my brain processing power to levels I never knew was possible...
Thank you Mrs. Sabbiyoun and Mr. Jba3i for making me enjoy Chemistry, a topic I never liked before...
Thank you Mr. Skafi and Mr. Harfoush and Mr. Bzee3 for making me fall in love with Science and Physics in the most creative ways...

I can probably write pages and pages about my wonderful TEACHERS, even from elementary school, but I will stop with this, thanking everyone I did not mention above, and thanking the TEACHERS of today, and tomorrow... Thank you... Happy TEACHERS Day...

The Spell of LOVE


She was a strong independent woman. Successful at work, loved by her friends, close to her family! She had a busy schedule, but not too stressful... She often planned outings with her friends, fun outings, fun nights, fun activities... She would visit her family often, and keep that lovely strong bond with her parents and siblings... At work, with her friends, wherever she is present, her smiles are contagious, like a positive spell that captivates anyone who witnesses her beauty... She was very well respected, adored by everyone who knew her, up close or from a distance... On top, she is a caring and loving single mother... From the look of it, you would say, she had it all, she is in a happy place...

He was a social butterfly, always out with friends, always making plans, activities, outings, hangouts, anything to bond with people... He loved his work, and was loved by his colleagues as well... Professionally he was good at what he did, highly recognized by his peers and superiors... He was the shrink of his team, with colleagues seeking him for advice, for support, venting out their issues and problems, spelling out all their daily stress... He was a good listener and a good advice giver... He was also a Joker and a Flirt, in the good sense! On top, he was a caring and loving single father... From a distance, you would think, this guy has it all worked out, he is having the time of his life...

Her crossed path with Him... Unplanned, unexpected, yet, Cupid, it seems, had his mind made up... She and Him were suddenly talking, texting, hanging out, bonding, and getting closer and closer to each other...

Her smiles became more contagious, her happiness barometer was at all times high...
His compassion for his friends and colleagues became more controlled, with boundaries...

She kept doing all she used to do before meeting him, and those around her, who thought she had it all before, now witness a new level of having it all...

He kept doing most of what he used to do before meeting her, and those around him, who thought he got it all worked out before, now admire this improved (controlled) version of him...

But she is human...
And he is human...
And humans make mistakes...
It is bound to happen, to her, to him, or both...

Fast forward, and a mistake happened!
The mistake caused a fight, an argument, a misunderstanding, confusion, shock, hurt, and a breakup...

Her smiles became less contagious, her happiness level faded, a bit...
His compassion for his friends and colleagues became a bit meh, weaker, and shallower...

She kept doing all she used to do before meeting him, and those around her, who thought she had it all before, now noticed something was off, something was wrong, the vibe was off...

He kept doing most of what he used to do before meeting her, and those around him, who thought he got it all worked out before, now they notice he was engaging less, talking less, doing less...

She did not talk to him, she had strict rules, standards, and beliefs, even if she wanted to, even if she had that burning urge, she just didn't talk to him...

He did not talk to her, but he was thinking of her, of what action to take, without hurting her, he was confused, he was hurting, but he just didn't know how to talk to her...

She was telling anyone who wondered: Anything wrong? She simply replied: All is good...
He was telling anyone who wondered: Anything wrong? He simply replied: All ok...

She was going about her normal day at work, attending meetings, working on her tasks, doing her thing...

He was listening to a romantic playlist while working... A song came up, his meh face suddenly put on a smile, he paused what he was working on, he rewinded the song, he focused on the lyrics, he smiled, smiled more, then a happy tear followed, more happy tears, now mixing with a smile, with images of her smile in his head... It was a song that expressed what he felt, what he wanted to say, what he wanted to do... Could it be?

He sent the song to her, hopeful, excited, anxious, and waited...

She saw the message, she paused what she was working on, she opened the song, focusing on the lyrics, she smiled, smiled more, then a happy tear followed, more happy tears, now mixing with a smile, with images of him in her head... It was a song that touched something deep inside of her and ignited her emotions, those she kept at bay... Could it be?

He was waiting, anxiously, then he called her, with a big hopeful and loving smile on his face...
She answered, anxiously, with a joyful and lovely smile on her face...

They talked, for hours, they reconciled, they rekindled, her and him, melting in emotions, longing for their next encounter, with contagious smiles all around...

This, my friends, is the SPELL OF LOVE...

I leave you with this quote from my current lovely K-Drama show:

"It’s nice to be single. It’s comfortable. You don’t need to worry about anyone. But the thing is, the joy of being single can just never compare to the joy of falling in love!"

Emotions, Distance, and Silence

 


Step back, keep a distance, stay far away...

But what is wrong with being close?! I care, and my feelings are genuine, and I love the close connection, the rekindling of emotions that are genuine and deep...

So what?! It is not about you only... What about the other person, do you know what this means to them? Do you know how they feel, how they will react, what they will expect?

I think so... I can feel the warmth, the excitement, the joy with every conversation, with every message, with every encounter... It is pure and genuine, it is undeniable...

Maybe now, at the moment, it brings momentary happiness, it is genuine, I agree... But what next? What is your plan, next steps, long term??

Well, why do I need a plan? Can't we just enjoy the moments and worry about the future later? Why sacrifice those amazing moments and spend the present thinking about the future?!

Because you are not in your 20s or 30s anymore... You have matured, you have responsibilities, you have dependents, you have a life to manage... Besides, what about them? Would they be content to live in the moment without expectations??

Hold on, I do not mean I only want to live for the moment!! Yes, I am crazy enough to do so, but I still think about the future... Did you forget, I am a Project Manager by profession, plans are my thing!! We did talk about the future, not seriously yet, but we did, and we will in the future... We even have one milestone set: 25-7-25!

It might already be too late buddy... Expectations are different, emotions are different, humans are different, period! So again, step back, and keep your distance, please...

But if the damage is done already, I need to fix it, I need to explain, I don't want to cause any harm, I don't want to be misunderstood... I care deeply and genuinely about them... I cannot lose them, I do not want to lose them!

Didn't you already try to explain? What happened? It all fired back! It made things worse! So hold your ego and walk away... Just accept the fact that you lost them, again...

I do not think I did a good job explaining what happened! It was sudden, shocking, and painful!! That can't be it! This is too profound to be gone just like that... It is not about ego, it is not about who is right or wrong! There are emotions, there are connections, so deep and true, that have great potential for the future, like you said, long term... We can't throw away all that!!

Potential for what exactly? Do you know what would that be?? Aren't you expected to define it?

I do not know yet, and it has not been long enough to define it yet!! It can evolve, it can change, it can grow, or it can fade away and go dormant, just like it did before!

Dude, before, that was decades ago!! You are not in school anymore!! You cannot think the same way you did almost 30 years ago!! Grow up...

What can I say, I am a hopeless romantic! Maybe this is my problem... No matter how true my feelings are, no matter how hard I try, no matter how caring I am, I always blow it, I always hurt those close to me! What's wrong with me!?

Maybe you need to communicate better, you need to be more clear, you need to set boundaries, you need to grow up...

Ok whatever, I know, I have to work on myself, fine... But what now? What about this pain, this wound, the constant tears in my eyes, for the loss of someone so dear and precious, this can't be it! There must be something I can do?!

You can try, but it is not only up to you, they have feelings too, they have expectations, they have a mind of their own... I admit, it is a shame to lose such a beautiful connection, but hey, life is a bitch! It does not always go the way we expect it to go... Maybe try, hard but not too hard, do not overstep, do not cause more damage in the process, and who knows, maybe it was just an explosive moment, maybe it will pass... And maybe it was so hurtful for them, that it will take time to heal... And worse come to worse, it might never heal, and that's it, buddy!! Move on...

But I don't want them to hurt, I don't want them to feel pain!

They might not be hurting at all!! They might be actually more mature than you and are consciously protecting themselves from you and any potential pain you might bring, frankly like they should!!

Seriously?! This is what I do? This is what has been going on between us? Am I the Godzilla of emotions? I just bring pain and destruction!!

Maybe you cannot see it, but it is the reality! Bottom line, go away, work on yourself, keep your distance, and observe from the other side, like you used to over the past decades, why change that now, and lose that pure and beautiful image you had of each other all this time!!

I definitely do not want to ruin that, and this is why I am feeling all this pain and hurt... If it was someone normal, you know, just a normal person in my life, maybe it would not hurt as much... This is different, this is special, this is deep and genuine, how many times do I need to explain it to you!!

All I can tell you at this stage is if it is meant to be, it will happen, today, tomorrow, next week, next month, or maybe 25-7-25, or never! You can try to mend wounds, clarify expectations, set boundaries and plans for the future, and see how and where things go. And you have lost people before that you cared about, people that meant to you, it is part of life... You cannot keep everyone you care about! Accept the fact that some people might see you differently from how you see them, some people might value your presence in their lives differently from how much they mean to you! Some people might fight you instead of fighting for you! And if you cannot fix things, and you lose them, just enjoy the scene from far away, keep your emotions to yourself, and move on...

You are mean dude, but maybe you are right... I got to try and see, otherwise I will just drown in pain and hurt... Thanks, dude...

I am not mean buddy, I am realistic and blunt, let's call it mature! Anyways, how about we stop here, and continue this conversation soon... Maybe you will have positive news for me next time... Enjoy the scenery for now, I can see you discovered a nice distant spot!

Yup, I took my emotions, to a very distant spot, and sat in silence, complete utter silence, freezing cold silence, even my phone froze to death! Anyway, dude, I am really too tired and need to rest... So, to be continued... Take care, with lots of love...


A CONVERSATION BETWEEN ME, MYSELF, AND THE FROZEN SAINT LAURENT RIVER...

I'll Never Love Again...


Every now and then, something comes across our lives to remind us that there is something called LOVE, and not just LOVE, True, Deep, Genuine LOVE… Yes, it exists, in so many forms, so many ways, so many places and times all around… If you do not have it, if you never felt it, if you never believed in it, well, that’s too bad!!

My recent encounter with the Movie “A Star Is Born” pushed me to write again about LOVE, its beauty, its amazing power, its strength and effect on those who love, truly… Some might think I stopped writing about love because I lost it, or had enough of it, or got tired from it, or any other reason that would take love away from me… On the contrary, I never stopped loving, I never stopped believing in true love, my feelings of love never seized to exist… My LOVE keeps growing every second of my life… With the happiness and the sorrow, with the beautiful and the ugly, with the joy and the pain, with the ups and the downs… This is LOVE, and you have to accept every face of it, if you do believe in it…

Those who have seen the movie probably had mixed feelings about it… Not to spoil the movie for those who still want to see it, and I do recommend you to watch it, the movie shows how love can be born in the most unexpected ways, it can grow in the most unimaginable ways… It shows the power of true love, with everything that might go wrong along the way, with all the faults in us, with all the mistakes that we do… When we find true love, we change, we evolve, in so many ways…

We accept the differences, we forgive the mistakes, we seek solutions for the problems, we aim for happiness and joy and unity and romance at all times…

We devote our lives for the ones we love… We fight for the ones we love… We sacrifice for the ones we love…

It is true that love can hurt, love can scar, love can break us, and bring us to pieces… Nothing is perfect… But Love can also bring so much beauty and joy to our lives… It is not an easy ride, it is not a smooth sail, it can be hard and harsh, but if you are in love, true love, you will be fueled with the strong and powerful energy to rise up and fight, to be happy, to enjoy love, together, as one, fighting the odds, the disbelievers, and the cruelties of life… Yes you can… Never give up, because LOVE is worth it...

I have been blessed to be in LOVE, so deeply and genuinely, with my Big LOVE and my Little LOVE, my Neemo and my Kouka… They are different kinds of love, but both bring the best in me, and I would give up everything for them… And I’ll Never Love Again, like I LOVE them…

I leave you with the song “I’ll Never Love Again” by Lady Gaga from the movie “A Star Is Born”




I'll Never Love Again - Film Version
Lady Gaga, Bradley Cooper

Wish I could, I could've said goodbye
I would've said what I wanted to
Maybe even cried for you
If I knew it would be the last time
I would've broke my heart in two
Tryin' to save a part of you

Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
No other name falling off my lips
Don't wanna give my heart away
To another stranger
Or let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
No, I'll never love again
I'll never love again, oh, oh, oh, oh

When we first met
I never thought that I would fall
I never thought that I'd find myself
Lying in your arms
And I want to pretend that it's not true
Oh baby, that you're gone
'Cause my world keeps turning, and turning, and turning
And I'm not moving on

Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
No other name falling off my lips
Don't wanna give my heart away
To another stranger
Or let another day begin
Won't even let the sunlight in
No, I'll never love

I don't wanna know this feeling
Unless it's you and me
I don't wanna waste a moment, ooh
And I don't wanna give somebody else the better part of me
I would rather wait for you, ooh

Don't wanna feel another touch
Don't wanna start another fire
Don't wanna know another kiss
Baby, unless they are your lips

Don't wanna give my heart away
To another stranger
Don't let another day begin
Won't let the sunlight in
Oh, I'll never love again
Never love again
Never love again
Oh, I'll never love again

Saving My Saviour


She saved me, from me, from myself, from my lost self, from my evil self, from my fake self...

All it took was a few smiles, a few laughs, a few transparent and open and sincere conversations... and she saved me...

It was quick, deep, profound, and real... Destiny in the making, as if she was sent for me... and I was meant for her...

She saved me, and I gave her back everything... so fast... that it was too good to be true!!!

My troubled self did not go away completely though... I struggled, up and down, back and forth, strong then weak, determined then lost, and more lost, and deeper lost…


She stayed the course, she stayed there for me, to support me and empower me, receive me after every failure and every mistake and every disappointment and every hurt... She was my loving and forgiving Saviour... Always...

But I kept on dragging my Saviour down, letting her down, hurting her, slapping her in the face, times and times again... not intentionally!!! But does it matter, intentional or not?!?!

How can you hurt someone who saved you, brought you to life, again and again... how can you fail to appreciate and cherish someone who gave you every good and every beautiful thing in your life…

But I kept doing it... Until my Saviour started falling apart!!! Yes, I failed her to that extent... Neither I, nor anyone around could believe it, or accept, or forgive me for it... I did not forgive myself either, and will never ask for forgiveness...

Instead, I changed course, I stood strong, determined to learn from my mistakes, and save myself, and her... Yes, I went on a mission to Save my Saviour back!!!

And I succeeded, for a while, then failed, back and forth... Because no one is perfect, no one can avoid mistakes and failures... To Err Is Human... But... Success after failure, I kept reminding myself of my true Saviour at the days when it all started, I kept getting strength and power and passion from the days when my Saviour was relentless, never giving up on me... I gained inspiration from her, to be strong, and make her strong again…

I saw things and felt things no one could ever see or feel… I lived it, touched it, loved it… Some around us never believed that either of us can be saved!! Some around us never believed any of this is real and genuine… And they intervened, they destroyed, they interrupted, they damaged, they harmed, intentionally or not, they did… Still, we believed in saving each other, in turns, together, one after another… And we kept doing it… Even at the closest moments to utter failure, when the evil company and the doubters predicted the end, even when one of us gave up, one of us always saved the other... and US...

Now it's my turn... I made it my undeniable purpose and priority, to save her, and me, and US... and nothing will ever stop me, whatever it takes, no matter how long it takes... For I always see it, the power of my true Saviour, in every song, every picture, every feeling, every memory, every emotion... It is there, and will always be there...

It is the power of True Love... That never ceases to exist...

And against all odds, Love Always Prevails...

To Genuine, Deep, and True Love...


Cheers everyone...

LOVE is beautiful...


Look deep into your lives, dig up your memories, try to relive those happiest moments of your life... And you will find that it all involved one common feeling and sensation: It is without a doubt LOVE...

And by LOVE, I don't mean only the love between couples!! It is every kind of love that we may experience: LOVE of your work, LOVE of your favourite movie, LOVE of your sports teams, LOVE of your car or hobby, LOVE of your country, LOVE of your city, neighbourhood, restaurant, cafe, spot, LOVE of your pet, LOVE of your family, LOVE of your children, LOVE of your partner, spouse, or soulmate...

LOVE in all its forms brings the Beauty in us... LOVE takes us to levels of happiness we can never imagine possible... LOVE shakes up every norm in our lives... LOVE breaks all the rules that we live by... LOVE changes every logic and every belief that stood against every other force in our lives... LOVE is so powerful in ways I can never describe... And most probably neither can anyone of you, right??

You can try to claim the opposite, refuse the whole notion that LOVE is so powerful, or even argue that LOVE doesn't truly exist!! Normally I would say that I respect your point of view... But in this one, I would actually say politely that you are a fool if you believe so... Apologies, but you are!!!

Somehow, somewhere, and sometime in your life you for sure experienced the beauty of LOVE!! You felt butterflies in your tummy... You imagined you could fly... You wished time would freeze at that special moment... You relive this beautiful memory over and over and smile... I am pretty sure you all lived this!!

LOVE not only gives us those beautiful feelings and memories, when I say it brings the Beauty in us, I mean it makes us beautiful humans!! When we are truly and deeply in LOVE we become positive, we become passionate and romantic, we become considerate, understanding, generous, forgiving... When we are in LOVE, we become devoted, faithful, strong, we become genuinely Beautiful...

One sad truth in all of this, and this is probably where the fools I described come into play, is that with all this beauty we might witness our worst feelings or moments ever in life!! Simply put, in the unfortunate circumstances where LOVE is taken away, lost, or gone, we lose the most beautiful moments, the most powerful feeling we can ever have, and that can turn into deep hurt, disappointment, agony, and every ugly feeling we can imagine!! It's like living in heaven then being thrown into hell!!

But that's life, unfortunately, and we have to deal with it... LOVE is beautiful, amazing, wonderful, and powerful... Live it and enjoy it to the fullest, hoping it will last forever... If it doesn't, that cannot take away the beauty it brought to our lives!!

My own reflection on this, I have lived 3 great LOVE stories in my life that I never imagined they would affect my whole being, my whole existence, my entire life: My LOVE to my DAD, my LOVE to my daughter KINDA, and my LOVE to my wife & soulmate NEEMO. Although no love story is perfect, each one changed so much in me, brought the best of me, the beauty in me, and that I will never ever forget, on the contrary, I will cherish them, protect them, live them, appreciate their beauty and power, forever and ever...

You as well, you have for sure your own LOVE stories to cherish and enjoy...

LOVE is a beautiful thing, and it will always bring the beauty in us...

To Happiness, Beauty, and LOVE...

Genuinely,

BISS

Love, Responsibility, and New Year Resolutions


Here we are at the end of 2015, another year gone by, another year spent... We close another chapter of our lives, a chapter full of memories and stories we can never erase or rewrite... Another chapter filled with joy, happiness, sadness, hurt, fun, adventures, success, failures, death, or love... Whatever happened this year, we have to accept it, learn from it, and look forward for a better year ahead... a better 2016...

Whether we like it or not, setting goals and plans is a proven way for success in professional as well as in our personal lives. So setting our New Year Resolutions is actually something really important to do, as long as we do it right. And when I say right, I mean, it has to be meaningful, genuinely meaningful to us. So depends on you, look for those big things you want to change in your life, big things you want to accomplish, big things you want to get rid of, big things that will make 2016 a better year than 2015... There are plenty of articles out there flooding social media channels which gives a lot of advice about setting those New Year Resolutions. I would say invest time and effort in actually setting those Resolutions, carefully, write them down, and keep them in front of you all year long to remind yourself of your goals, crossing out the ones you accomplish, and motivating yourself to seek the ones remaining on your list... It is so worth it, believe me...

For me personally, 2015 witnessed big accomplishments, that unfortunately did not stick, and turned into big disasters, disappointments, and hurt... How, why, what happened? I have been trying to figure it out before we close 2015, in order to learn from it, and plan for a better 2016, hoping I can fix, redeem, and regain a lot of what I have lost in 2015. So what did I find out, that is worth sharing with you, in order not to do a similar disaster?

I am by nature a very Loving and passionate person. I love madly, genuinely, deeply, with all my senses. Love of all kinds, love to my country, my city, my friends, my family, and of course above everything, my love to my soulmate, my Goddess, my love to my wife NEEMO... And although everyone knows this, with every action I have taken throughout 2015 and before, it was not good enough to close my 2015 on a happy note. Because something was missing, and I had to learn it the hard way: Love is not enough if it is not coupled with Responsibility!!

Love is an amazing thing. Those who know me, and who read my previous piece (Religion, Love, and ISIS), would understand what Love means to me... But as I said, I was missing the Responsibility ingredient... And so, my love became intoxicating, suffocating, damaging, even destructive!!

If you over do it in Love, you choke your loved ones... If you cover up lies for your loved ones, you are actually causing them more harm than good!! If you spoil your children, you are actually raising them wrong!! If you make your loved ones completely dependent on you out of love and care, you are ruining their individuality and independence!! All these examples and many more are examples of love with no responsibility... I come to realize this is a Careless kind of Love!! Eventually, even though all this is done under the flag of LOVE, it backfires completely, and would steer you away from a life full of love!!

For 2016, I have set a single huge Resolution: To Become a Responsible Lover. This is my deep, genuine, and meaningful Resolution. For 2016, I seek new ways, new paths, new adventures, and new actions, aimed to redeem myself to the ones I hurt, to the ones I damaged, to the ones I lost... I seek redemption in every single step I take, in every single action I do... I am a good learner, although I do many mistakes, which I admit, endorse, take responsibility, and try to work around them... But sometimes the damage is so deep, and so I am obliged to take extraordinary measures to really redeem my mistakes... I have done it before, and I will continue to do it, over and over again, hoping I can avoid repeating those mistakes, and doing good in 2016 and beyond...


Look into 2015, reflect on your actions, on your accomplishments, on your mistakes, learn from them, and set a new plan for 2016, a meaningful plan... A Responsible plan... Set Resolutions that mean to you, that mean to others, that will do good to yourself and others... Everyone has the capability of doing this, everyone is obliged to do this, for your sake, and for the sake of your loved ones...

To my family, friends, and to the love of my life: I am sorry for my Careless Love, I promise to work harder, I promise to learn and improve, I promise to change, I promise to become a Responsible Lover...

One quote I saw and loved goes like this: "2014 was practice, 2015 was the warm up, 2016 is game time". 


I close 2015 with some sadness... But at the same time, I am grateful, for all the happiness, health, joy, adventures, accomplishments, successes, and lessons... I am grateful for having amazing friends, family, a precious daughter, and the most amazing and loving soulmate... I am grateful for the LOVE I have in my life...

Goodbye 2015, and hello 2016, with everything you will bring... I am ready and so excited and looking forward to starting this new chapter. What about you my friends, are you ready??

To Happiness, Responsibility, Hope, and LOVE...

Happy New Year Everyone...
