Inspired!
Last post: Thursday April 5, 2011.
But why?
Writing is what I love. Why did I let it go? Could it be college? friends? family? or simply I might just have gotten lazy.
I can honestly say that in the past year and a half I learned a lot. I'm not calling myself wise or anything, but I believe its safe to say that Hamda now knows a lot more than Hamda from a year and a half.
I learned more about my interests, my career path. I learned about my likes and dislikes. I discovered who truly cares about me and who is just curious. The ones who smile to my face but frown as soon I turn my back.
At last the last thing I could think of as to why I haven't been writing was this: Lack of inspiration.
It's safe to say that my creativity was lost in the past year and a half but I have been slowly and gradually putting the pieces back together. I'm growing emotionally and mentally. I'm licking my wounds and aspiring to become better, the best.
So many people have been there to inspire me and put me back on track: Amna, Mani, AD, Mayari, Afra, Mthayel, Aunt M, and most importantly my mother.
I am truly blessed and grateful.
Peace,
Hamda

You Guessed It, Another Confession
It's so astonishing how one person has control over the other. No, I don't mean physically but mentally. Some people have a certain vibe that reaches you instantly which helps you feel at ease while others not so much. Whether it was a friend, colleague, family member and the list goes on. Of course we, as humans, don't get along with everybody. We have our differences: views, personality, sense of humor...etc. Some people just make you hold your breath ( metaphor ) the moment they walk through the door. It's like they possess a certain invisible item which causes you to shut down mentally and not want to participate in the conversation. It's like they have put up a certain barrier which is impossible for you to break down.
Regardless, I personally was fast to judge. I've met a lot of people during the short course of my life and while most were friendly, the rest didn't seem so. Yet with time I realized that I have judged them and didn't give them a chance to change their image. Maybe they were shy? Maybe they weren't the type to chat with anyone they have just met? They say that a person forms his/her opinion about someone after the first 15 seconds of meeting them. Whether that was a proven fact or just a saying, I demandingly suggest that you give a person at least a couple of days before forming an opinion about them. You never know, you might be surprised.
Peace,
Hamda

I Confess; I'm scared
A lot of things has changed about me lately. Some are good and some are...well, not so good. I started seeing things in different perspectives. I'm starting to lose patience when it comes to people yet I wait when it comes to something that's related to myself. Some of you might take that as selfish but some might say, "Yes, I can relate to that.". Some of you might not even understand what I'm talking about it. I recently took a very major decision that has to do with my life and I'm still waiting for things to go the way I want it. Until now, I'm still waiting. Sometimes I just want to cry and rewind time, yet there are still moments when a tiny spark of hope lights up inside of me and I feel happy again. I love that feeling; it gives me a reason to move on. It tells me: "Yes Hamda, there's light at the end of this tunnel. Just keep walking." I'm still waiting for the time to come where that spark of hope lingers inside of me and and never leaves.With that being said, I'd still like to make one more confession: I confess; I'm scared.
