<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">The father of evolution, Charles Darwin, pretty much gave us
an insight into how the human race and all other organism species on the planet
Earth came into existence. According to him, everything about human existence
is pretty much physical and all science. This simply suggests that no deep
meaning or mystery can be added to the things we do or the gifts and abilities
we have. The idea of evolution pretty much portrays the idea that the humans
and all other organism specie on the planet are robotic in nature. I guess we
can think and feel and that makes us a whole lot different from robots but come
to think how different are we really from robots if we believe in
evolution. Robots are programmed to
carry out a particular purpose and this purpose they carry out without asking
questions and when they are worn out after a couple of years, they are
terminated and another robot created. Is that so different from us if evolution
is indeed through? We go to school, get
a job, start a family and at roughly 80 years of age, we are terminated because
we are worn out. But if this robotic existence as suggested by evolution is
indeed the truth, why then do our mind seek more meaning to the things that
meets the eye? Why is it that despite
living like a robot, we are not still satisfied? Are we really terminated and
with no sort of existence at all when we die? If that is the case, then what is
the purpose of it all? What is the purpose of existence and where are we headed
with it? I can’t answer those questions
because I am in the same existence as you are but deep down within , we all
just know that the robotic existence can’t be all there is and thus I think its
high time we all started looking beyond what meets the eye and I’m hoping
we find our answers when we do.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I've always wished for things in my life to turn out for the better. Through out my years on earth i've always had a dream of been a very wealthy person . Here on this very day and in this very minute , i find myself at the very last step to success and i ask myself " get wealthy then what?" . I've seen rich men die and buried in the same soil as the poor , i've seen many struggle all their lives accumulating wealth only to die when they least expected and when they die they leave everything they have accumulated behind and i'm forced to ask "what good are riches?". Riches perhaps are a wasted effort because we have no portion in it when we die. With all these going through my mind, i just thought to myself "if i am not taking anything along, i might as well give everything out and put a smile on peoples face before i die. if i'm not taking my wealth along with me to the grave, then the orphans and widows shall have it. The less privileged, the ones in the refugee camps, the ones who cant afford 3 square meals a day, the underfed and kwashiokor children shall have it all before i die . At least then i would know i'm dying with a contented heart filled with the joy that came from the smiles of those i helped.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14237263534052565409noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5154080646684064460.post-15260964181618006452013-06-30T06:08:00.001+01:002013-06-30T06:16:11.795+01:00MOTIVATIONAL QUOTES<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
You would all agree with me that the reason why there is so much hatred between Atheist/Free-thinkers and Religious people is due to the fact that there is little or no understanding between parties. So instead of fighting each other , let us all come together and interact. Let us dialogue on the basis of our beliefs and reach a consensus in belief. Let us all argue this till there is a generally accepted conclusion. </div>

<span style="color: blue;"> <b>Rule of Discussion</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1. All parties involved are not to use insulting words on each other in the process of argument. No profanity is allowed in the discussion so if you want to insult, then don't contribute.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2. No insult should be levied on any religion or its God. Everyone involved in such would bear the consequences and wrath from such a God(I mean this discussion is to find out if God exist right? So at the start we don't know or haven't agreed if God exist or not right. So what If you insult the religion/God and discover in the end that they exist. Do not hold the tail of a dog because it looks harmless) </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3. Any contributor should offer a valid opinion with reasons.</div>

The people who are called of christ, how numerous their persecutions
and travails are. But a voice has been issued out of zion and it is a
word of comfort from God. Thus sayeth the Lord <br />
<br />
"Happy
are you when people reproach you and persecute you and lyingly say
every sort of wicked thing against you. Rejoice and leap for joy since
your reward is great in the heavens; for in that way they persecuted the
prophets prior to you" (Mathew 5:11-12)<br />
<br />
"And unto the angel of
the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last,
which was dead, and is alive; I know thy works, and tribulation....Fear
none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall
cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have
tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a
crown of life. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second
death."<br />
(Revelation 2:8-11)<br />
<br />
"And to the angel of
the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the
sharp sword with two edges; I know thy works, and where thou dwellest,
even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not
denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful
martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth."<br />
(Revelation 2: 12-13)<br />
<br />
"And
when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of
them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which
they held:<br />
And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O
Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them
that dwell on the earth? And white robes were given unto every one of
them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little
season, until their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should
be killed as they were, should be fulfilled."<br />
(Revelation 6: 9-11)<br />
<br />
"He
that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will
not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his
name before my Father, and before his angels."<br />
(Revelation 3:5)<br />

One year, 365 days and an endless number of seconds, transformed my
life 360 degrees, made it go from color to black-and-white, turned
laughter into tears.
<br />
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph2">
I now no longer perceive
the world as a 14-year-old innocent girl who takes everything for
granted, more as a victim of a terrible experience that'll never fade
away, always reminding me of what others go through and a memory that
will forever stay with me.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph3">
Before the revolution, I
remember how, on cold winter nights we would sit together as a family,
around the crackling fire sipping hot chocolate. I remember the smoke
from the fireplace, wafting upward, leaving a scent of burning wood in
the air. I remember looking into my sister's eyes and that glimmer they
always had, the smiles my parents would share.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph4">
I remember how I used to
love breaking the silence of the moment by rushing into my father's lap,
tracing the narrow path of velvet veins on his hand, as I
enthusiastically told him about my day at school, my second home and my
friends, my second family.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph5">
We don't live those days anymore. Now no one's eyes can lie, and the only sound I can hear is the screaming of sorrow.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph6">
March 23, 2011 was the
first day I saw a demonstration in Syria. I was driving to a friend's
birthday party, through streets that were packed with people carrying
flags and calling out chants in support of the regime.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph7">
I was oblivious to my surroundings, I didn't know what was going on. I thought it was just a demonstration that would blow over.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph8">
"Barely any one is
coming! Their parents are too scared to send them because of what's
happening," my friend cried when she saw me. I looked into her eyes and
saw the tears slowly forming and streaming down her red cheeks,
streaking her dark make-up.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph9">
As weeks passed by it
kept getting worse. One day I jumped out of bed to the sound of
something loud shattering the windows of my room. Breathless, I got up
too quickly, barely noticing the glass sparkling on my dull rug. I ran
but came to a sudden halt as I felt my head spinning and my vision
darkening.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph10">
My mom was crying and
hugging my sister tightly. "A bomb hit an area nearby," my mother
stuttered, switching through the different news channels while trying to
block us from seeing it.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph11">
I managed to get a
glimpse of it, on the TV, something I wish I had never seen. I remember
my eyes feeling assaulted by the brightness on the screen, a sight that
haunts me every night; dead bodies, bits of human flesh, were spread out
like dispersed glass.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph12">
I closed my eyes and
opened them again, hoping I would go back to the life I was used to,
where unicorns and rainbows existed along with Prince Charmings and
forever afters.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph13">
Unfortunately now, the
dark days, and the nightmares take place on a regular basis, devastating
my country and reluctant as I am to let it in, taking over my life, and
controlling my mind.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph14">
From then on the world
changed for me. Instead of learning it slowly through experience it was
taught to me harshly through the sound of gunshots and bombardments. I
discovered how cruel life can be, and how in one second a smile can turn
into a tear, peace into war, a friend into an enemy and life into
death.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph15">
I lived in a blur, not knowing what had happened or what I was to do.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph16">
I woke up every morning
to the sound of gunshots, bombs or the roaring helicopters accompanied
by the sad news of the death or kidnapping of someone we knew.</div>

<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph17">
Some evenings, I hid under my blankets, covered my ears, and thought of the past trying to feel safe again.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph18">
I silently peeked out my
window to continuously stare at the moon in its different forms casting
a dim light, to stare at the sky and the stars emerge taking their
place in the night. The image drawing me further and further from
reality, into the life I yearned to go back to.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph19">
My parents tried to stay
strong teaching us to do the same, until one night it all fell apart. I
was sitting in my room, the place I hadn't left for a long time,
talking to my friend about our memories, and suddenly, I hear a cry,
whispers, the sound of my mother's sobs, then her yelling. "I'm going
out to find him!"</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph20">
My family has its own business and my father was late coming back home, not answering his phone.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph21">
"But it's too dangerous!" my aunt screamed back at my mother. "I don't care!" my mother shouted back.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph22">
I ran down the spiraling
staircase terrified, afraid of what was happening. Everything went
black, like a starless night. I felt like the walls of the house were
closing in, suffocating me.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph23">
The background noise was
blocked out and all I could do was stand and stare in dismay at my mom
in this state for the first time. She lay on the stone courtyard just
outside our front door, crying, holding her phone with a shivering hand
dialing my dad's number like her life depended on it.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph24">
Everything stopped. It
was like someone pressed the pause button in a movie, and now the
seconds felt like hours. All I could hear was the pounding of my heart
screaming over my mom's voice.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph25">
I don't know how long we
waited, or how fast my heart was beating, but when my dad's car turned
the corner, I gave everything I had left to run and hug him tighter than
ever.</div>

</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph26">
At that moment my senses
returned and I realized how cold the ground was under my bare feet. I
carried my mom inside, and from that day on I learned that though she
may be older, taller and more experienced, deep down she needs me just
as much as I need her.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph27">
Now, the one thing I
looked forward to was waking up every morning and creeping into my
parents' bedroom to look at my dad's thin and frail face making sure he
had made it in safe the night before.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph28">
In school, only half my class was left. "At least we have each other," said one of my five best friends with a comforting smile.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph29">
However that didn't last for long.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph30">
Devastating news kept
coming at us, beginning with the death of my friend's uncle. "In one
second I lost my uncle; a part of me," she whispered in a heartbreaking
tone.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph31">
I looked at her
hopelessly, trying to comfort her, but I knew no words could bring him
back. Every morning for one month, no words were spoken by anyone
besides the ones of regret.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph32">
"If we knew this was coming, we would have done things so differently," we would tell each other.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph33">
We wouldn't have taken so much for granted, we would have appreciated what we had. Instead it was ripped away.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph34">
Grades dropped, smiles faded, students left, and all that remained were the memories that we would safely lock away.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph35">
As my dad protectively
drove us to and from school, the only places we could go to, I noticed
the row of soldiers on the streets. They reminded me of domino pieces.
Their presence radiated darkness.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph36">
Each one had a solemn
appearance, frightening eyes that looked right through you below their
crunched frown. However, what always caught my eye were their large
guns, the color of the dark pine trees they leaned on.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph37">
I went from looking at colorful flowers and singing birds every morning, to dark killer weapons.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph38">
April 5, 2012 was my
last day of school. My parents decided to move us all to Lebanon. I had
known it was coming all along. It wasn't a surprise. Everyone was
moving.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph39">
I sank in my seat that day at school, buried my head into my hands and cried like I did every day.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph40">
I remembered how when I
heard the news about Egypt and the violence in Tahrir Square and
thinking to myself that I was far from harm's way. Now I was considering
how hard it would be to move away from my home, my dad, my friends and
family -- not knowing anyone or anything, possibly never being able to
contact them because of the broken phone lines.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph41">
My mind wandered back to
10 years ago when I first stepped foot into the school, only worrying
about things like my friendship bracelets, and now I was expected to
leave everything I ever knew behind. The people who knew me inside and
out, who had carved a place in my heart.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph42">
Memories flashed
accompanied by more tears as my friends gathered around me and I opened
my swollen eyes trying to picture the scene hoping it would last
forever.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph43">
I am angry and I feel
hatred to the people that are ruining my country, anyone who is holding a
gun and shooting no matter which side they're on. Those who stole my
childhood and that of so many others.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph44">
My dream was to apply to
universities with my friends as well as cry tears of joy when we threw
our graduation hats in the air. Now that was crushed to pieces. One part
of me, knows that this isn't good bye, and that no matter where this
crazy world takes us when the time is right we will return.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph45">
Another part of me is
scared that more people will die, even if they are not close to me.
Everyone has a family, friends and they suffering. I am scared that I
will lose the hope that I now have about being able to return, and being
left with nothing but memories.</div>

<br />
I was a traveler on a universal voyage.<br />
<br />
I boarded the voyage traveling from heaven to earth because I was told there were many green fields on the planet <br />
<br />
I was told that the view of their sunrise and sunset were breathtaking.<br />
<br />
I was told that nature there was the home of peace.<br />
<br />
I was told the planet had beautiful water falls.<br />
<br />
I was told that I would have a large family with a mother , a father, brothers, sisters, cousins, nieces and grandparents.<br />
<br />
I was told the planet was very beautiful...<br />
<br />
Oh how they lied to me!!<br />
<br />
When I arrived on earth, i discovered there were no flowering fields.<br />
<br />
when I got to earth, i discovered there was no mother and father for me as they said.<br />
<br />
When I got to earth, i saw darkness instead of the beautiful sunrise I was told of.<br />
<br />
If i had know i would never have boarded the voyage in the first place.<br />
<br />
So with a smile on my face , I'm traveling back home.<br />
<br />
I'm going back to the place where there is neither strife nor hate.<br />
<br />
I'm going back to that place where there is neither jealousy nor envy.<br />
<br />
I'm going back to the plane of peace.<br />
<br />
I'm really happy I'm going back.<br />
<br />
Thank God I wasn't exposed to much of the evil of earth.<br />
<br />
Good bye and so long planet earth.....<br />
<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

You know, sometimes I wonder why I do some of the things I do even though it is not yielding any profit.<br />
<br />
I mean here am I with nature on this beautiful day with a complicated and troubled heart. I looked around and I saw the grasses dance to the tunes of the wind , I heard the birds singing in harmony with a joyful heart. I felt the peace and love in their hearts. Just that one moment with nature made me realize the simplicity of life and I kept wondering to my self why i complicate my life by myself when it was made simple for me.<br />
<br />
To what reason do i slave for money from day to day at expense the of my peace and happiness?<br />
<br />
To what reason do I pursue fashion and trend from time to time when even the flowers of the field that wont exist anymore in a matter of days,weeks , months has clothes more beautiful than all my clothing combined.<br />
<br />
Here am I in my youthful exorbitance and wild passions exposing myself to immorality just to fulfill my sexual desires but in the end realizing that what I need is not a sex mate but a friend and sister. <br />
<br />
I wonder what I was trying to prove by being rebellious to God and acting as a prodigal child. I mean what exactly is it I was searching for when I threw away the pearl given to me and went in search for another treasure.<br />
<br />
Re-compassing everything I've done , i just laugh to myself and say; "oh foolish me!".<br />
In the end i just realize, it is not the wealth that matters, nor the fame or fashion. All that matters is the salvation of our soul which is the main reason why the everyday business has become a decision of eternity.<br />
<br />
Perhaps we may just realize that all we need is just a plate, a spoon and a nest to live a fulfilled life.<br />

<b>This is a poem whose words has been moulded by sad times. A poem in whose lines the very sad experiences of our today world has been conveyed. </b><br />
<br />
<b>IT READS: </b><br />
<br />
I LOOK TO THE PAST AND IT JUST SEEM LIKE YESTERDAY WHEN EVERYTHING LOOKED PERFECT.<br />
<br />
I REMEMBER THE DAYS WHEN THE FIELD WAS GREEN<br />
<br />
WHEN BLUE LILIES AND THE RED ROSE FILLED THIS MOUNTAIN SIDE.<br />
<br />
I REMEMBER HOW THE BUTTERFLIES USED TO FILL EVERY TERRAIN ON THIS MOUNTAIN SIDE<br />
<br />
THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS<br />
<br />
THE DAYS WHEN MY BEAUTY WAS STILL WITH ME.<br />
<br />
THE DAYS WHEN MY BELOVED WAS VERY CLOSE.<br />
<br />
OH! HOW I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO GO BACK IN TIME TO THOSE YEARS.<br />
<br />
LOOKING AT THE PRESENT, I JUST WONDER HOW EVERYTHING CHANGED ALL OF A SUDDEN.<br />
<br />
HOW DID THE GREEN FIELDS BECOME A WASTE LAND ALL OF A SUDDEN?<br />
<br />
WHEN DID THE MELODIOUS SONGS OF THE CITIES SUDDENLY CHANGE INTO WEEPING?<br />
<br />
WHERE ARE ALL THE LILIES AND ROSES ON THIS MOUNTAIN SIDE?<br />
<br />
WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO?<br />
<br />
OH! HOW IS IT THAT MY PLAY GROUND SUDDENLY BECAME COVERED IN THE BLOOD OF MY LOVED ONES?<br />
<br />
DEATH! OH DEATH!! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TAKE MY TREASURE AWAY FROM ME?<br />
<br />
WHY DID YOU HAVE TO TAKE AWAY FROM ME THE ONLY BLANKET WITH WHICH I KEEP WARM IN THE COLD DARK NIGHTS OH DEATH?! <br />
<br />
GRAVE! OH GRAVE!! WHY MUST IT BE THE SOUL OF MY BELOVED THAT YOU HAVE TO USE TO QUENCH YOUR HUNGER AND THIRST?<br />
<br />
HADES! OH HADES!! WHY MUST YOU SWALLOW A LIVE RAM EVEN WHEN YOU ARE FED WITH MEAT FROM THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE?<br />
<br />
BUT IN ALL I AM STILL COMFORTED<br />
<br />
I AM COMFORTED BECAUSE THE MASTER OF THE SYSTEM SAID TO ME : "TAKE HEART CHILD".<br />
<br />
IN MY DARKEST HOUR DID THE MASTER OF LIFE AND DEATH SAY TO ME ; " A LITTLE LONGER CHILD, HOLD ON A LITTLE LONGER FOR THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY IS JUST A MOMENT AWAY AND WHEN THE DAY IS COME, YOU SHALL EXPERIENCE A BEAUTY THAT WILL LAST FOREVER".<br />
<br />
TAKE THIS MESSAGE TO MY BELOVED<br />
<br />
TO MY BEAUTY OH SAY THIS TO WHOEVER YOU ARE GOING FROM THE SLAUGHTER HOUSE TO THE STOMACH OF HADES ITSELF!<br />
<br />
TELL MY BEAUTY THAT I SAID ; " A LITTLE LONGER DEAREST, HOLD ON A LITTLE LONGER. FOR THE MASTER SAYS THAT THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY IS JUST A MOMENT AWAY AND WHEN THE DAY IS FINALLY COME, WE SHALL BEHOLD THE BEAUTIFUL DAYS AGAIN. WE SHALL HOLD HANDS AND PLAY IN THE GREEN FIELDS AS WE USED TO. HOLD ON A LITTLE LONGER TILL WE MEET TO PART NO MORE".<br />

One year, 365 days and an endless number of seconds, transformed my
life 360 degrees, made it go from color to black-and-white, turned
laughter into tears.
<br />
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph2">
I now no longer perceive
the world as a 14-year-old innocent girl who takes everything for
granted, more as a victim of a terrible experience that'll never fade
away, always reminding me of what others go through and a memory that
will forever stay with me.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph3">
Before the revolution, I
remember how, on cold winter nights we would sit together as a family,
around the crackling fire sipping hot chocolate. I remember the smoke
from the fireplace, wafting upward, leaving a scent of burning wood in
the air. I remember looking into my sister's eyes and that glimmer they
always had, the smiles my parents would share.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph4">
I remember how I used to
love breaking the silence of the moment by rushing into my father's lap,
tracing the narrow path of velvet veins on his hand, as I
enthusiastically told him about my day at school, my second home and my
friends, my second family.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph5">
We don't live those days anymore. Now no one's eyes can lie, and the only sound I can hear is the screaming of sorrow.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph6">
March 23, 2011 was the
first day I saw a demonstration in Syria. I was driving to a friend's
birthday party, through streets that were packed with people carrying
flags and calling out chants in support of the regime.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph7">
I was oblivious to my surroundings, I didn't know what was going on. I thought it was just a demonstration that would blow over.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph8">
"Barely any one is
coming! Their parents are too scared to send them because of what's
happening," my friend cried when she saw me. I looked into her eyes and
saw the tears slowly forming and streaming down her red cheeks,
streaking her dark make-up.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph9">
As weeks passed by it
kept getting worse. One day I jumped out of bed to the sound of
something loud shattering the windows of my room. Breathless, I got up
too quickly, barely noticing the glass sparkling on my dull rug. I ran
but came to a sudden halt as I felt my head spinning and my vision
darkening.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph10">
My mom was crying and
hugging my sister tightly. "A bomb hit an area nearby," my mother
stuttered, switching through the different news channels while trying to
block us from seeing it.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph11">
I managed to get a
glimpse of it, on the TV, something I wish I had never seen. I remember
my eyes feeling assaulted by the brightness on the screen, a sight that
haunts me every night; dead bodies, bits of human flesh, were spread out
like dispersed glass.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph12">
I closed my eyes and
opened them again, hoping I would go back to the life I was used to,
where unicorns and rainbows existed along with Prince Charmings and
forever afters.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph13">
Unfortunately now, the
dark days, and the nightmares take place on a regular basis, devastating
my country and reluctant as I am to let it in, taking over my life, and
controlling my mind.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph14">
From then on the world
changed for me. Instead of learning it slowly through experience it was
taught to me harshly through the sound of gunshots and bombardments. I
discovered how cruel life can be, and how in one second a smile can turn
into a tear, peace into war, a friend into an enemy and life into
death.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph15">
I lived in a blur, not knowing what had happened or what I was to do.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph16">
I woke up every morning
to the sound of gunshots, bombs or the roaring helicopters accompanied
by the sad news of the death or kidnapping of someone we knew.</div>

<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph17">
Some evenings, I hid under my blankets, covered my ears, and thought of the past trying to feel safe again.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph18">
I silently peeked out my
window to continuously stare at the moon in its different forms casting
a dim light, to stare at the sky and the stars emerge taking their
place in the night. The image drawing me further and further from
reality, into the life I yearned to go back to.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph19">
My parents tried to stay
strong teaching us to do the same, until one night it all fell apart. I
was sitting in my room, the place I hadn't left for a long time,
talking to my friend about our memories, and suddenly, I hear a cry,
whispers, the sound of my mother's sobs, then her yelling. "I'm going
out to find him!"</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph20">
My family has its own business and my father was late coming back home, not answering his phone.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph21">
"But it's too dangerous!" my aunt screamed back at my mother. "I don't care!" my mother shouted back.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph22">
I ran down the spiraling
staircase terrified, afraid of what was happening. Everything went
black, like a starless night. I felt like the walls of the house were
closing in, suffocating me.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph23">
The background noise was
blocked out and all I could do was stand and stare in dismay at my mom
in this state for the first time. She lay on the stone courtyard just
outside our front door, crying, holding her phone with a shivering hand
dialing my dad's number like her life depended on it.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph24">
Everything stopped. It
was like someone pressed the pause button in a movie, and now the
seconds felt like hours. All I could hear was the pounding of my heart
screaming over my mom's voice.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph25">
I don't know how long we
waited, or how fast my heart was beating, but when my dad's car turned
the corner, I gave everything I had left to run and hug him tighter than
ever.</div>
<div class="cnn_strylftcntnt">
<div class="cnn_strylctcntr cnn_strylctcquote">
<div class="cnn_strylctcqcntr">

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">"</span>I get angry when other people my age complain about their life, about the silliest things.''<br />----Cayanne</b></span></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph26">
At that moment my senses
returned and I realized how cold the ground was under my bare feet. I
carried my mom inside, and from that day on I learned that though she
may be older, taller and more experienced, deep down she needs me just
as much as I need her.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph27">
Now, the one thing I
looked forward to was waking up every morning and creeping into my
parents' bedroom to look at my dad's thin and frail face making sure he
had made it in safe the night before.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph28">
In school, only half my class was left. "At least we have each other," said one of my five best friends with a comforting smile.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph29">
However that didn't last for long.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph30">
Devastating news kept
coming at us, beginning with the death of my friend's uncle. "In one
second I lost my uncle; a part of me," she whispered in a heartbreaking
tone.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph31">
I looked at her
hopelessly, trying to comfort her, but I knew no words could bring him
back. Every morning for one month, no words were spoken by anyone
besides the ones of regret.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph32">
"If we knew this was coming, we would have done things so differently," we would tell each other.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph33">
We wouldn't have taken so much for granted, we would have appreciated what we had. Instead it was ripped away.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph34">
Grades dropped, smiles faded, students left, and all that remained were the memories that we would safely lock away.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph35">
As my dad protectively
drove us to and from school, the only places we could go to, I noticed
the row of soldiers on the streets. They reminded me of domino pieces.
Their presence radiated darkness.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph36">
Each one had a solemn
appearance, frightening eyes that looked right through you below their
crunched frown. However, what always caught my eye were their large
guns, the color of the dark pine trees they leaned on.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph37">
I went from looking at colorful flowers and singing birds every morning, to dark killer weapons.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph38">
April 5, 2012 was my
last day of school. My parents decided to move us all to Lebanon. I had
known it was coming all along. It wasn't a surprise. Everyone was
moving.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph39">
I sank in my seat that day at school, buried my head into my hands and cried like I did every day.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph40">
I remembered how when I
heard the news about Egypt and the violence in Tahrir Square and
thinking to myself that I was far from harm's way. Now I was considering
how hard it would be to move away from my home, my dad, my friends and
family -- not knowing anyone or anything, possibly never being able to
contact them because of the broken phone lines.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph41">
My mind wandered back to
10 years ago when I first stepped foot into the school, only worrying
about things like my friendship bracelets, and now I was expected to
leave everything I ever knew behind. The people who knew me inside and
out, who had carved a place in my heart.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph42">
Memories flashed
accompanied by more tears as my friends gathered around me and I opened
my swollen eyes trying to picture the scene hoping it would last
forever.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph43">
I am angry and I feel
hatred to the people that are ruining my country, anyone who is holding a
gun and shooting no matter which side they're on. Those who stole my
childhood and that of so many others.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph44">
My dream was to apply to
universities with my friends as well as cry tears of joy when we threw
our graduation hats in the air. Now that was crushed to pieces. One part
of me, knows that this isn't good bye, and that no matter where this
crazy world takes us when the time is right we will return.</div>
<div class="cnn_storypgraphtxt cnn_storypgraph45">
Another part of me is
scared that more people will die, even if they are not close to me.
Everyone has a family, friends and they suffering. I am scared that I
will lose the hope that I now have about being able to return, and being
left with nothing but memories.</div>

<li>True beauty does not lie on the outside but lies within.</li>
<li>We are all born to shine as children but only those who light up their lamps shines.</li>
<li>Peace is what all human seek but only few who understand that only God can give peace actually find peace.</li>
<li>Ignorance is a contagious disease . so choose your friends wisely.</li>
<li>An admirer of beauty always wishes to bask in the light of the beauty it beholds but nothing beautiful comes easy so it takes an hard working admirer to bask in the light of such beauties.</li>
<li>That the fruit tree on a fertile soil has not fruit on its branches doesn't mean it is barren but it is waiting for its season to manifest.</li>
<li>Though everyone looks, it only takes the discerning heart to actually see.</li>
<li>Words of wisdom are meant to illuminate our lives. The reason why though we hear the words of wisdom everyday but are not improving in our spiritual and physical lives is because we do not apply the words of wisdom we hear.</li>
<li>Doing something without understanding is like moving without a direction. Understanding is what gives direction.</li>
<li>Fate is what we make for ourselves for life and death is always placed before us. what we choose is our fate.</li>
<li>Sometimes when things aren't going well, we look at our lives and wonder where we got it all wrong and we are always tempted to look at where we fell instead of where we slipped.</li>
<li>In nature are the wisdom of God expressed.</li>
<li>The size of a vehicle determines the amount of passenger it would carry thus the size of your dream is a determining factor of your height in life. So dream big dreams.</li>
<li>One lesson humans have failed to learn from the butterfly is to follow guidiance. It is what always leads to a field of beautiful flowers.</li>
<li>We sin freely because we do not understand the extent of hells torment neither do we fully understand the beauty and glory of heaven. Only if all men understood then would all humans really act in fear of God.<span style="color: red;"><b> </b></span></li>

<br>sentenced to death in Iran for
<br>apostasy was reunited with his
<br>family Saturday after a trial court
<br>acquitted him, said a nonprofit
<br>group monitoring the case.
<br>Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, born
<br>to Muslim parents and a convert
<br>to Christianity by age 19, was
<br>released after being held in
<br>prison for almost three years
<br>under a death sentence, said
<br>Tiffany Barrans, international
<br>legal director of the American
<br>Center for Law and Justice.
<br>Setting aside the death sentence,
<br>a trial court convicted
<br>Nadarkhani of a lesser charge —
<br>evangelizing Muslims — and
<br>declared that his prison sentence
<br>had already been served, Barrans
<br>said.
<br>His case drew international
<br>attention after his October 2009
<br>arrest, and the 34-year-old
<br>pastor refused to recant his
<br>Christian beliefs.
<br>Nadarkhani was greeted by his
<br>wife and two small sons upon
<br>his release, but it's unclear
<br>whether the pastor will continue
<br>preaching, said the center, a
<br>conservative organization
<br>founded by television evangelist
<br>Pat Robertson.
<br>"His ability to preach in Iran, I
<br>don't know," Barrans told CNN.
<br>"But I think at this point, he's
<br>going to have to some time to
<br>assess the situation and all the
<br>emotions wrapped up in that
<br>before he makes any decision."
<br>Persecution of religious
<br>minorities in the Muslim country
<br>remains a problem, Barrans said.
<br>Hundreds of Christians are
<br>arrested, detained for months
<br>and then released without formal
<br>charges "as an intimidation
<br>tactic," she said.
<br>As an ordained minister,
<br>Nadarkhani led a network of
<br>house churches in Iran.
<br>He was arrested in 2009 after he
<br>lodged a protest with local
<br>education officials after learning
<br>his child was being forced to
<br>read from the Quran, the Muslim
<br>holy book, in school.
<br>He was charged with apostasy
<br>and convicted in a provincial
<br>court — which sentenced him to
<br>death.
<br>He appealed, and during a trial in
<br>a lower court, refused to recant
<br>his beliefs.
<br>The case made its way to the
<br>Supreme Court, which said
<br>Nadarkhani's sentence could be
<br>overturned if he recanted. The
<br>pastor refused.
<br>On Saturday, he was released by
<br>a trial court in the Gilan Province,
<br>Barrans said. The pastor had
<br>been held in Lakan prison in the
<br>same province, she said.
<br>Nadarkhani is from the
<br>province's city of Rasht.
<br>Even though the constitution of
<br>Iran — a predominantly Shiite
<br>Muslim country — guarantees
<br>equality to members of religious
<br>minorities, that has not been the
<br>case in practice.
<br>And while apostasy is not an
<br>offense codified in Iranian law,
<br>converts from Islam often face
<br>the death penalty, Amnesty
<br>International said.
<br>Persecution has increased since
<br>Iran's disputed presidential
<br>election in 2009, with Baha'is,
<br>Christian converts and even
<br>Sunni Muslims bearing the brunt.
<br>In April 2010, the U.S.
<br>Commission on International
<br>Religious Freedom reported a
<br>rise in church raids and
<br>harassment of worshippers by
<br>Iranian authorities.
<br>And Amnesty International, in a
<br>report released earlier this year,
<br>said "repeated calls by the
<br>Supreme Leader and other
<br>authorities to combat "false
<br>beliefs" — apparently an allusion
<br>to evangelical Christianity,
<br>Baha'ism and Sufism — appear
<br>to have led to an increase in
<br>religious persecution."
<br>In February, the White House
<br>issued a pointed statement in the
<br>Nadarkhani case, strongly
<br>condemning the reports of an
<br>execution order.
<br>"This action is yet another
<br>shocking breach of Iran's
<br>international obligations, its own
<br>constitution, and stated religious
<br>values," the statement said. "The
<br>United States stands in solidarity
<br>with Pastor Nadarkhani, his
<br>family, and all those who seek to
<br>practice their religion without
<br>fear of persecution — a
<br>fundamental and universal
<br>human right. "
<br>From small churches to large
<br>organizations, Nadarkhani's case
<br>has galvanized American
<br>Christians.
<br>The Voice of the Martyrs, an
<br>organization that monitors and
<br>attempts to assist with
<br>persecuted and minority
<br>churches around the world, has
<br>closely followed Nadarkhani's
<br>case and other developments
<br>involving Christians in Iran.
<br>But the issue has not been solely
<br>spearheaded by Christian
<br>groups; Muslim organizations
<br>have also been vocal about
<br>condemning Iran.
<br>The American Center for Law and
<br>Justice — a group "specifically
<br>dedicated to the ideal that
<br>religious freedom and freedom
<br>of speech are inalienable, God-
<br>given rights" — was asked by
<br>the pastor's lawyers last year to
<br>help publicize Nadarkhani's case,
<br>according to Jodran Sekulow,
<br>executive director of the group.
<br>
<br>Readers, what do you think about this? Pls leave your comment.

<br />
Have you ever asked yourself why you exist ?.In this complex system of unseeming varsity, we've found our existence in this habitable niche called earth. The sumary of all our activities as far as can be thought of are these: children are born unto men, the old men of the system after their working and toiling strifing after the wind are found to leave the system empty handed. They were born with nothing and when they were leaving, everything was taken from them even despite all the work and troubles they had to go through. This process is the same for the young that are born into the system and it will continue for generations unending. The process has always been and it's still and will continue to be. I gaze upon this whole process and all i see is purposelesness and unending vanity , every activity is always tending to nothing. I look at the vanity in everything and i ask myself 'why am i here?'. Why should i have to toil day and night only to leave the system empty handed?. The vanity in this system is realy a great injustice and it sickens my heart. <br />
<br />
But if there is one thing that has given me comfort in everything there is, then it will be this: I know for sure that beyond this system, there exists another system. There the rich, the poor, the great, the small, the mighty, the little, kings and the commoners have all gone and will continue to go. There do you find equality. There is no title given to anyone there nor is there a supercesion of one more than the other. This is the system of our eternal existence. In this system, the reward due to each one according to his/her activity on earth is given to them. Some to eternal damnation and some to eternal life. I in my own understanding corellated this system and the earthly system and drew my conclusion of why i am here. And this was my conclusion : I exist in the earthly system simply to make eternal life in the other system and my existence in the other system would be simply for fellowship with the God of the systems. This is true and valid for all existing homosapien. Thus its invariably foolish to go after vanity in this earthly system. The much needed activity is for us to wash our garments clean and try our best to make eternal life in the system beyond this one. This itself is the purpose of our existence in this system so live wisely.<br />
