Journaling Series: 3rd Log

A word from the dictionary and what does it mean to me. The word I found was ‘Endeavor’; its verb means trying hard to achieve something and the noun means an attempt to achieve a goal. By all means this wasn’t planned. Now I didn’t find this word in the dictionary I found it in an application called Vocabulary Builder I opened it and there was my word but since it has a meaning to me I am glad that I found it. I could call myself an endeavor person I really work hard for the things I want, I don’t give up easily and if I do give up then usually it’s a sign that I really didn’t want it this much to justify fighting for it, which is probably a good sign. Now being endeavor doesn’t mean just trying; in my point of view it also means battling through hardships and tough situations that we think we can’t reach the other side of, but we do it anyway, We fall and fall then We rise again, reborn but not new, We rise experienced, We rise wanting it more, Fighting for it more, We ris...

Shadow: Imagine you are someone’s shadow for a day. Who would i like to shadow for a day? The pure concept of shadowing someone is really not that hard or far as it may seem we probably do it every day, I mean you probably know what your family members are doing right now, or your best friend and likewise with you, Your best friend also knows what you are doing maybe not by the minute but close enough to it. So the question you are all probably asking yourselves is; who is that person that I want to shadow beside the people I already know.  I asked myself the same question and came up with an answer that surprised me. The person I would like to shadow for a day is Myself, yes you read right, and no I am not self centered hear me out then do what you want. Most of the time we for instance react to a certain situation in a certain way which basically was wrong, we wish we could take it back but from my humble experience my clock doesn’t turn backwards, That’s why I want to...

What is the weather like in the place I want to travel to? For starters I want to travel to Paris and no I am single so it’s not the city of love thing, although I don’t mind that fact about the city. Anyway back to Paris, I want to see Paris in the seasonal change between winter and spring; that first bloom of flowers which makes you feel reborn somehow, the slight chill of the morning air swiftly taking away the winter blues leaving space for spring’s intoxicating essence. Some people hate Paris and believe that it’s overrated; it might be, but I can’t help myself from constantly wanting to see the Eiffel Tower or to get lost in the narrow streets till I find my favorite café where the winter lingered on a bit in. After all Paris is much more than a tower and if I am rich enough I will have dinner in the Eiffel’s restaurant and no there will be no escargots for me, I barely eat fish so snails is way past the line. What about love you might ask? There will be love; I will ...

Journaling Series Intro

Hello there fellow writers and readers, it's me Nour 😁 I wanted to give you all a heads up because I am going to start a journaling series✌✌ Now i normally don't publish my journals because they are more of a diary than a journal, But this time I am experimenting with prompts that are less personal but still revealing my character, now the whole purpose of this was to get me to write without heavily critiquing myself and just letting myself go. Now the published journals will be edited which i really like because I will be hitting two birds with one stone; journaling and editing. On to the fun part for you guys, you have the right to review my work tell me what it's missing, what are the good parts, just everything you want to tell me you can tell me. Just a DISCLAIMER all these prompts that I am using aren't by me so all their rights are reserved to their rightful owners, that also includes images unless i mention that the image is mine. I really hope that...

The Bigger Picture

                              The bigger picture  the bigger picture is the one thing that is always there in every situation in our lives, It resembles the title of the movie of which we are the actors of, It’s weird and most of the times we get carried away with the actors that we forget that the title is called “Happy Ending”, And all we think about is why the hero left the heroine , Same with our lives. We focus on the actions the series of waves that hit us one after the other even though when we thought that the sea of our lives was calm. Change the word that is most feared by humans because we are put in a position where we don’t know what’s coming next and we are tired, exhausted and we don’t know how to deal, How to live when our laws, habits and people no longer exist. Everything is gone everything is white and then someone comes in and gives us a pen; A choice we could write we could sta...

BODY IMAGE

                                                                                             BODY IMAGE The most talked about issue of our generation,the past generation and I reckon also the next generation. It’s time to shed some light on that dilemma that keeps hindering progress through our lives. It all started with the noticing of the body shapes and since they were all different and for some reason our capacity of accepting “different” is very very small, we started putting them in criterias, and even among these we started selecting the elite group the “perfect body shape” or as we prefer to call it “the model” and very rapidly that image was all of us’ aim, we coveted that skinny girl look and soon the clothes market only produced clothes for...
