"I don't feel strong. No, I really don't, because I know I'm not. But it's not because I don't want to be strong. People may think that I'm strong, because I'm stubborn, and because I have ideas and opinions. I trust myself. I trust my opinions, so I give a lot of weight to what I want. Maybe, because I know I'm not strong, I become very strong."

i know your reading this !!!

Ok so obviously I didn’t have a choice, you seriously proved me that your naive and if I know by any means that you would listen to what I have to say , I wouldn't have told her . you MADE ME go and tell her ...you've told me you were done with this issue two months ago …so don’t come and judge me for telling her… if there is anyone you should be pissed at, that would be yourself ! What you've done is WRONG, and I know that if I didn’t tell her you would go off limits! (Ex. your name) You should know that this is not about you… this is about Family this about cheating and stabbing the people who care for you the most in the back … I know I have my flaws too, but I'd never go as far as you went and i don't even have to explain myself to you !!!!…I don't understand why you did this! and I don’t understand why would you keep this from us when you think "there is nothing wrong about it"… you’re an "airhead" and I'm very disappointed you cant be that stupid !! i dont know if your friends were encouraging you to do this, but if they did then you need to know that they're different than us, they were not raised the way we were …

it's Ramadan and everyone deserves another chance … I forgive you. But am not sure if you forgive yourself... Grow up, please !

Cord Blood Banking

.
.
.
.
first of all i would like to thank Papillona for helping me out to change my template ... thanks a lot Papi ;*
.
.
.
secondly, to all of you, mothers and fathers to be, I'm not sure if you're aware of this but that other day I was talking to a "mother to be" and she told me she wants to register to the cord blood banking since she might need it for her father's medication , he is suffering from Alzheimer … it’s a new medical discovery ..Here is an overview:
.
.
.
Cord blood is the blood that remains in the umbilical cord and placenta following birth and is routinely discarded with the placenta and umbilical cord. Now a process called cord blood banking allows you to have your baby's cord blood saved for potential medical uses
.
.
.
Your baby's cord blood is a rich source of stem cells, which are genetically unique to your baby and family. These valuable cells can only be collected in the minutes after your baby's birth. Preserving your baby's stem cells is considered to be a type of "safeguard," or biological resource for your family.
.
.
.
The Stem Cells are the body's "master" cells because they give rise to all other tissues,, and systems in the body. The stem cells' ability to differentiate, or change,into other types of cells in the body, is a new discovery that holds tremendous promise for treating and curing some of the most common diseases such as heart disease, cancers, stroke, and Alzheimer's.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Collecting the cord blood poses no risk to your baby and collections can take place after vaginal or cesarean births. The collection procedure, which takes only a few minutes, is simple, safe, and painless.

To My ROCK !

I guess it finally hit me.. your not here anymore …writing this tear come from my eyes …I will never forget the day I got the news you parted from us. Words cannot express how much I love you , miss you and how much we need you !!!
Your loss is a major heartbreak and each day I miss you more and more. I pray for you every night !

Not a moment goes by that something either reminds me of you, or I think of something to tell you.....then I remember you're gone, you gave me so much. . I was strong knowing you were there for me, to help me, to love me. I try to live with the values you taught me: honesty, integrity, and valor. And how to keep up and stick to moralities . You allowed me to see things differently, view the world in a different light, and take life more seriously.

you touched and influenced so many people. I swear to God If love could bring you back, you would be here right now.


I miss getting lost in your beautiful presence, I miss your voice, your calmness …you always were able to calm the whole family down and make us realize things weren't as bad as we perceived them to be...your wonderful sense of humor! You could make me laugh under almost any circumstance, couldn't you? In all my life I honestly didn't know there were men out there that could be so unjudgemental, so tender, so insightful, so kindhearted, caring and FUN! I think that's called unconditional love. you blew me away !
You've proved to me that love not only survives, but actively carries on after you leave this earth. I've never in my whole life heard you complain and when it all gets too much to bear I feel your strength.


I wanted to let you know that you are in each and everyone of us and that I'm eternally glad and proud that you’re my uncle, You had a heart of gold.

Yesterday they came to us, and I've heard about all what you've done to help those people and it just proved me that you never stop giving, do you?!


I'll always remember your horrible cooking !! and how my sister got poisoned from eating the "m3addas" you made us when we were in Lebanon…I'll always remember your tales of Zelfy ! and all the funny stories you used to tell us and all the hilarious incidents from your wicked childhood that we used to hear from others… I’ll remember "3ashat il7ajyah" referring to the old woman on T.V.... i'll never forget your outstanding intelligence and I will remember you on my wedding day since I've always wanted you to be a witness on my marriage ( yes I've planned for that). and NO im not going to name my child after you for "ilmitraash" as you claimed ...And If I had the opportunity to see you one last time I would truly tell you how much WE ALL miss you .. you were more like a father to me

You have always been with me and kept me going. It's no question if you made it to heaven. Heaven sure is all the richer since you arrived there, that's for sure! …INSHALLAH

I'm putting one of the pictures of that wonderful day , it was on Eid and no one knows how to make Eid so special better than you do ! Khali, Ramadhan, eid and everything else is never the same without you.



This is my memorial to you, Thank you for being such a wonderful man and showing us all the true meaning of love and compassion, your legacy will live on through me. There will always be a special place in my heart where you are living and breathing and you won't be forgotten. I loved you more than words could ever say….You can never be replaced, You're forever missed and never forgotten… Someday we can meet again and hug and kiss and be together, I know.

3asallah Yir7umik Yalghaaaliiiiiiiiiiii w jamee3 amwat il muslimeen


Love Always and Forever until we meet again,

R

حــصــونــه

Modern Rich Kuwait !

*Seriously the situation of water shortages in kuwait is way out of hand, some body gotta do something ! .. they say the oil revenues this year has exceeded its average limit... now i dont get it ?? why do one of the richest countries in the whole world has electricity outages and water shortages ?!
today i had to use pots to shower !!!! just like back in the invasion days ! using numerous buckets of water to wash my hair and brush my teeth, needless to say it took me ages to finish and the water was so cold =( ...

( check Entrepreneur post, Russia )


* i went to Al Ameeri Hospital today to visit one of my grandma's friends , i havent been there for 4 years . i must say i've noticed a huge difference, they've changed the floor's Ceramic and it looked more like marble, the windows now are bigger and wider so that you could see the sea view , the Toilets are provided with Handicap facilities and when i asked about those changes i've been told that its all from donations... i was really happy to know that kuwaitis are starting to help out to improve our hospitals levels ... Kathar Allah kheirhum. i so wanted to take a picture of it but i have left my mobile in the car !
and just for the record, Al ameri and Mubarak hospitals were the last hospitals built by the government in kuwait , the rest "new" hospitals with fancy "Armani" "Etro" and "Fendi" rooms are all Private ones.

now my Question is, what does the government exactly do with the oil revenues?!





*SIDE NOTE:

talking about Fancy bed rooms, one of my friends just came from Milan a.k.a Milano and she highly recommends Bvlgari



and here i would like to mention some of the names that have attributed to improve our medical sevices in kuwait


الجناح الذي دخلت له في مستشفى الأميري كان على نفقه السيدة حصة الساير لأبنها من عائلة "العبدالمغني"

أما بمستشفى الصباح:

عائلة البابطين - للحروق

السيدة حصة العبدالرزاق – القلب

أسعد الحمد - الجلدية

شيخان الفارسي – العظام

سالم العلي – الصم

خالد النفيسي

بدرية أحمد الجابر

حامد العيسى – الكلية

MTC

NBK – children's section divided into two sections the baby blue is for boys and the nurses are dressed in baby blue while the pink one is for the girls and the nurses are dressed in pink as well

مركز حسين مكي جمعة للأورام الخبيثة
السيدة فوزية الرفاعي – السكر أطفال

المستوصفات

الفيحاء – على نفقة عائلة العبدالمغني
العديلية – على نفقة عائلة الصقر
ضاحية عبدالله السالم – على نفقة السيد بدر النفيسي
القادسية – على نفقة ورثة خالد الغنيم

عسى الله يجعلة في ميزان حسناتهم ... و أسفة اذا نسيت أحد بالغلط

مـن حـضـرتـك ؟

.
.
Hello again my dear fellow Bloggers and Blogerettes,
i'm back from my summer vacation . it has been a very relaxing one,i took a break from my mobile phone, e-mail and most of the transportation and communication devices. i had so much fun il7emdillah... its always good to go to some secluded areas and have sometime alone, just for you and your family, breathe fresh air and eat fresh healthy food and also waking up early every morning looking at this magnificent view.
.
.
. on the other hand,
.
.
.
هذه السنة بالذات لاحظت ان الكويتيين من بين الشعوب عموما و العرب خصوصا هم الأكثر "بلاغة شف"

أول تبدأ بابتسامة
بعدين السؤال المتداول " انت من الكويت صح؟"
بطبيعة الحال بتردين عليها " صح"
"انا اقول ...ملح الدنيا ينثر"
"تسلمين من ذوقك"
.
.

هالحوار مدته دقيقة وحدة و كل وحدة منا تتكلم وهي ماشية بطريقها ..اللي معاي بالسفرة يحقرونهم ..بس انا ستحيت لأنها مرة كبيرة ..لكن و الظاهر ان اجوبتي ما بردت كبدها
.
.
.

من باكر لقيتها بنفس الممر و بنفس الوقت " صدفة خير من الف ميعاد"
المرة الكبيرة "صباح الخير"
"صباح الخير"
المرة الكبيرة "شفتي المطر ..مال موّش"
ضحكت:
المرة الكبيرة "من حضرتك؟"
هالسنة مادري شفيني الظاهر من كثر الاكسجين النفسية صايرة فللية كان اسطر لها اسمي

المرة الكبيرة " هاو!! انت بنت فلان؟ امك فلانة الفلانية"
أنا " أي نعم"

طلعت تعرف تاريخنا كلة ...

المرة الكبيرة " سلمي على أمك و قوليلها (ش.غ) تسلم عليك"

أنا: انشاءالله
.
.
.
.

بعد كم ساعة اتصلت على أمي و قلتلها عنها والا امي
"أي ماما اعرفها..ديري بالك منها بس سلمي وامشي لاتطولين بالسوالف"

انا "ليش ؟ شفيها؟"
"بس ماما لاتطولين معاها بالحكي
.
.
.

من باكر وحنا نمشي بالحديقة والا وحدة من لهجتها عرفت انها كويتية كان تقضبني ...لوسمحتي وين المكان الفلاني؟ لما علمتها .. والا
السؤال المعتاد "من حضرتك؟"
إنا لله وإنا إليه راجعون ... ردينا نفس السالفة
.
.
.

وحدة يايتني لي الطاولة اللي انا قاعدة فيها ..."انت سورية؟"

الاستعباط شلون صاير؟

.
.
.

المهم ان يوم السفرة قاعدين نتريق "الفطور" والا المرة الكبيرة قاعدة قبالي كان تقولي مني و الطريق و بدون أي مقدمات

"في واحد ينقالة بوفلان الفلاني عنده فلوس متلتله على قلبه و لايعطي أحد"
أنا: "هذا جــــدي!!!!!!!!"

المرة الكبيرة " أيه أدري"
.
.
.
وبنفس اليوم .. في بنت كويتية قاعدة اسولف معاها باللوبي على ماينزلون أهلي و نروح المطار

كان تقولي : انت كنت مخطوبة و فليتي الخطبة صح؟

"لأ"

البنت" امبلا انا قالولي انك كنت مخطوبة و خطيبك عافك"

انا " اعوذ بالله لا مو صحيح..من قال هالحكي؟"

البنت" خالتي (ش.غ) تسولف على أمي قبل كم يوم"
.
.
.
شر البلية ما يضحك
.
.
.
i havent forgotten you guys, i brought you swiss finest chocolate, Bon appetit ;-).
