Nadiaismus, Chapter I: God and humans

As promised, I'm posting something about ''Nadiaismus''.. The thing is: This is just Chapter I as I noticed that I can't sum up my whole worldview in one post (would be like ∞). For the ones who don't really know me and are surprised by the terms ''Nadiaismus'' and ''worldview'', don't worry.. I'm not planning to take over the world nor to turn into some megalomaniac.. It's just that during the last years I often had these theories (which are actually based on my religion :) ) and my classmates started calling them ''nadiaistic''.. After a while the term ''Nadiaismus'' was created.. That's all!
So, you will notice that it is not quite new but only showing the important things in life from my point of view.

Chapter I: God & humans

The human being is created by God. Once one is really convinced of this idea one will notice that it is not him who decides and puts the rules but his only task is to follow the certain rules made by God. There is not much space for the question ''What's wrong and what's right?'' because for that we have our religion.
This is closing the door to the question ''What's wrong and what's right?'' but at the same time it opens another one ''What's good and what's better''. Now the human being has to think, analyse and chose which path to go while knowing that both are right but on different levels.

Nice, old feeling

Today I was watching RTL2 (German 1/4 Mange-channel) . Then I started remembering all the old series I was watching during the last 6 years.
My first one was ''Sailor Moon''. ^o^ I got addicted to it. Later I began to watch several series like Dragon Ball, Jeanne, Detectiv Conan, etc.
The most stupid one I have ever seen in my life is: Pokémon. The whole story makes no sense and has no message. There was a phase at school were we all had our Pokémon-cards and they were regarded as treasures. Can't stop lolling when I look back at these days.

Anyway, today I noticed how much I always loved the opening themes. There's also a CD (Anime Hits 5 is the latest one) with all the opening themes of the current series. Of course all the songs are the German versions of the original Japanese ones. I was dying to get one of the volumes but when I travelled to Germany this year I totally forgot about it (had other ''more important'' things to do).

All in all, I'm so obsessed with the idea of becoming a manga artist. One can make movies/series for each age and unlike many current stories there will be a certain message.

So, going to post something about Mangas, CGI & 3D, etc. as soon as I finish my exams isA.

Eyes and pupils (Part 1)

What I still want to change is the reflected object in the pupil. Would be great if it would be a mosque or something symbolic for faith.

PS: Gassia for example achieved a very nice reflection by accident. Click on her name and check it out!

My blog and templates

As you can see I have changed my blog AGAIN.
The reason why I have been doing this since I started blogging is very simple: Every time I started a new template there were problems regarding the cbox, background, etc.
This time you will notice that the template is not on the list of templates made by Blogger.

After looking through some websites that explain HTML, rgb, etc. I was finally able to work on MY TEMPLATE and have it the way I want/like it to be. To be honest, after this experience you may find me changing it from time to time as it turned out to be loads of fun but it also requires some effort, lots of effort.
All in all, I spent 5 hours understanding, practicing, experimenting and finishing it.
So, I hope you like it.. =)

By the way, for the ones who would like to try it, here you go:

Just beautiful...

I took this picture while I was in South Africa at the beach.

I just love it... Simply beautiful...

''Tagged''

Well, I was tagged by Chet and supposed to post a childhood-picture.. So, here you go :)

Now I'm tagging Gassia and Mori ;)

Hearts and minds

I have already started this post 5 times before but couldn't find the right words to express myself precisely and correctly.. This is my last try:

When two people like each other very much and have already built a relationship, do they have to:

• see each other a lot?
• talk a lot?
• spend a lot of time together?

I thought something would be wrong if these things were not the main features of the relationship whicht is claimed to be built on respect, trust and love. But exactly these words: respect, trust and love prove that you can be not talking, not seeing each other and not spending much time together while these precious feelings are still the same. Now I cannot describe how relieved I am after coming to this conclusion because that proved to me that most of my relationships are built on real values.

So, as long you keep the people you love in mind you can be sure that you both are close to each other's hearts! :)

Good news --> my op

Finally got the reply about my operation which will take place in summer 2007 isA. I cannot wait it!! I really just want to finish my Abi as fast as possible and go there to do it. And there are two good news:

1. I can do the second operation only 6 months after the first one. I really hoped that this would be possible because now I will not have to wait another year. It was planned that I will do the first one in summer 2007 and the second one in the following summer (2008). Now the first one will be in summer 2007 and the second one in winter 2007. 2008 will be free of operations isA and I will be able to spend my holidays in another way. Although I have to admit that Germany is quite beautiful and I really enjoyed my last trip there but I do not mind about having a change too ;D
2. I will only have to stay for 6 weeks there (not two months or something :S) which means that I can go back to Egypt and spend the rest of my holidays there with my family, relatives and friends. :)

I really thank God for all this!

The only question left is: Shall I skip my Abi-ball or stay and travel after it at once? Haven't thought about it much but we will see.. :)

Free Hugs

http://gassia-bloggy.blogspot.com/2006/10/amazing-inspirational-video.html

(Please check out the link first and watch the video to understand what this post is about. Thanks.)

What's the point of giving hugs to people who are leading a good life??? If this person wants to signal that this world is empty of love and sympathy than he should go to an orphanage or a place with poor, ill people and give them as many hugs as he can because these people are the ones who are in need for that.

Going to people who are leading a normal, good life and showing compassion to them is pointless and superfluous.. It's not signaling anything..But looking for people who have AIDS, leprosy and other deseases is indeed a meaningful and sensible way to appeal to the world for more love and sympathy!

Another thing.. I believe that people who want to change the world should start with the close ones first.. That means if you want more sympathy in the world .. then you should sympathize with your family and friends..If you want more justice in the wolrd.. then you should be fair with the ones around you.. If you want more aid in the world.. then you should help the people who you get in touch with..

So, it always starts with you and by doing what is right you have already made the world a little bit better than it is..

''Wannabe''

Was just discussing with a friend how many ''wannabe*''s we have at school this year. Turned out we have so many that I'm wondering if anyone is able to be himself these days.

It is quite interesting to analyse the whole thing.. Why do people pretend to be someone they are not? And what is the point of acting and fooling the people around them?

The following came to my mind:

• thinking that no one will accept them the way they are
• seeking more attention
• being weak and unsatisfied with what they have and wanting more or even something completely different
• having a certain aim that can be only achieved by putting on a certain mask

One may find a whole bunch of other reasons but all of them are just showing how self-conscious one is.. And that is sometimes not only one's fault but also the community's because it is often the community that forces you to pretend to be someone that you are not just to be not opposing the norms and standards of the society..

But one thing is sure:

Enjoying your individuality and showing it is so much better than being fake and turning life into a long movie with you as an actor!

*wannabe: someone who wants to be someone he is not.
