TIME WILL HEAL....


They say the passage of time will heal all wounds…                                                     
But the greater the loss,
The deeper the cut,
And the more difficult the process to become whole again.
The pain may fade, but scars serve as a reminder of our suffering and make the bearer all the more resolved, never to be wounded again.
So as time moves along
We get lost in distraction,
Act out in frustration,
React with aggression, 
give it to anger
And all the while we plot and plan as we wait to grow stronger.
And before we know the time passes.
We are healed and ready to begin anew.

Lost in this Strange World

when I was a kid I thought I will figure out everything when I am younger, but apparently, that was just a childish dream of mine. I had thought by this age I would understand most things and would be able to make decisions about my life so easily. It is just so hard to make peace with the fact that I will never figure out everything and that I will always have doubts. I don't want to sound ungrateful because I really am not. I understand that the life I am living right now is a dream for thousands of young people in my homeland. However, I am not happy. I just don't know why? The reason for my unhappiness might be the people around me most of whom are impossible to understand. I work in a very prestigious international humanitarian organization but I don't like it here as much as I should. most of the people working here are insanely stupid and unbelievably arrogant. there is no teamwork. Every single department acts like an independent republic. No spirit of collaboration...

Beginning of 2026

  This year started the same way as last year, busy and with too many works to do. During the first week of January 2026, besides handling my own responsibilities and tasks, I was the OiC for my supervisor, our MEAL Coordinator; and for the past two weeks, I have been the OiC for our Security Officer, who has gone to Jordan for the HEAT security training. So as you can see, I have been pretty.  Nowadays, I am leading multiple assessments at the zonal level from different projects. Due to the load of work in my zone, a MEAL Officer had to be deployed here to support me in the MEAL assignments. Mr. B has been here since last Thursday. He is in the field leading a very important assessment on the ground while I am in the office for technical and admin-related tasks. Therefore, I have not been able to write anything in my journal or here itself. Sometimes I feel like I am drained out of energy and I can't do more, but again, I look around and see there are things I need to take ca...

The Passage of Time and the Uncertainty of Life

Life has never been certain, and we have been unable to stop time from passing. And yet we live our lives accepting both conditions. There may be another way of looking at it. There may be beauty in the passage of time and the uncertainty of life. In knowing that the present is all we have got and it is running away from us as fast as possible, and we have to make the best of it while we can; in knowing that future is uncertain and no matter how much we try, we will never be sure about what will happen in the future. All we can do is to make the best of the present and have hope for the future.  For me, growing up I thought that grown-ups are really lucky, because they know what is best and what is not, and what will happen in the future. Not knowing what would happen in the future was not a very good feeling at the time. As I became a grown-up myself, I realized grown-ups are as clueless about the future as children are. But as time passes, I am starting to appreciate that maybe t...
