    I am sitting in my chair in the middle of the garden laying my feet to a wooden chair, holding my laptop in my lap. Birds are singing all around the parameter. Now that there is no traffic on the road and no student in the college their songs are vivid, very clear and kinda melody. Sky is cloudy and the weather is a little colder than what it is used to be at this time of the year.     Today is not different from any other day. I woke up again with a sense of determination that today I will study hard and start preparation for my final papers. But haven't started yet, watched two movies, in between slept for a while, had lunch which was no so great by the way then came outside with my computer thinking that I should read the book which I started two days ago but after three pages got bored. I gotta tell you reading from a PDF file in your laptop is not such an easy thing to do. I have tried before but failed excessively now that no other option is availab...

  The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho       Today I went to library after lunch to submit my old book and issue some new ones. Most of the books in our institute's library are utter crap. You can barely find a good book, So when I could not a good new book I winded up issuing an old one The Alchemist.

It is" that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate".   # "When you want someth...

The Forty Rules of Love by Elif Shafak Just right now I finished reading this book, honestly I really don't know what I am feeling right now,  I am a little confused and lost. It had so many lessons and so many good stories. I completely fell in love with the book and the writer. I could not understand though, whether all these events were true or not. It has been written considering every individual's insight about the events which take place along the story. It has a lot of spiritual lessons to teach us about almost everything, and of course those forty rules love of shams of Tabriz were mind blowing. I had read about Rumi and Shams during my high school but now I realize I knew nothing about those two spiritual individuals. Now that I think I had misunderstood the meaning of love my whole life, not that I understood from this book the meaning of love but I learned that I need to read and search about meaning of love a lot more. Infatuation of Rumi towards Shams to Tabriz w...
