My Voice on EARTH FM – on the margin of the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference -
On the margin of the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, a great initiative from Leo Burnett Australia who already started the Earth Hour campaign are now launching the EarthFM, where people from around the world are asked to cast their voice to the World Leaders to take bold action and stop the dilution of our environment.
Al though it was kinda weird to record my voice then upload it, but the desire to really have a voice pushed me to do it.
Here what I said:
“This is the time where being in difference is acting against the movement. Unless we all shout and scream, no one will listen to us. We want to make it clear that the world leaders has to take ultimate measures towards our planet. If it wasn’t for our lifetime, its for our children’s.
For those who are selfish enough not to care about whats going on, what if each of us will come back to this planet after we die. I am not trying to freak you out, but there is some people who believe that human beings can actually re-incarnate and their soul might come back wearing a new human body. If this is just an assumption, wouldn’t be enough to raise your voice and vote for earth’s sustainability, so that when you come back, you don’t have to suffer and go through all the mess we are are creating today.”

Some strange morning thoughts
As I wake up everyday early in the morning, I usually have time to reflect on life and its meaning, trying to dig a path of understanding of the universe. Putting religion aside, I was lucky to discover and realize my life purpose early-on. Knowing the impact of both “Education” & “Technology” on my life and millions of others, I found out that its worth dedicating my life to it: “I exist to elevate, inspire and empower people by means of education and technology”. This might sound profound to some, generic to others, but it doesn’t really matter as long as the purpose isn’t evil or doesn’t harm the planet on the broader perspective. But the question is: is it better to the world to be better? or how can you measure being better? and on what criteria?
So, if I want to educate as many people as possible so that maybe they get enlightened, inspired and empowered to change the world to a better place, will I be doing something good or bad? I mean does the world really need to be better. What about that maybe suffering must be part of the existence of human beings!
Ummm, anyways, well lets not complicate matters Naja common, it is trendy to stand up and talk about a world with less human suffering. People will regard you as a hero. Your social status becomes higher and higher… don’t you think?
Yeah alright… Thats true, people are admired if they were able to reduce pain and increase pleasure within other people. If you give me food when I am hungry, I would bow to you, thank you and cherish you. Why? Because human nature seeks pleasing it self. Our bodies (including our brain and spirit) need pleasure. But are we sure that our bodies only need pleasure? Imagine a life with no pain. Well, this is not possible because, you are definite to break your arm, your heart and feel sad about someone deer who died. So what we are talking about here? Are we talking about the massive suffering of large groups for longer periods of time because of war, diseases, and poverty? Or are we talking about nuclear infected places or maybe places affected by rising sea levels and climate change? Or the sick religious affinities and the brains that are washed early on to cause terrorism and spread fear across the planet?
So what would a mission do or a purpose of a man can achieve? another question has to be asked: does the evolution in human beings in the recalled history truly indicates a change for the good or for the bad? let us think of good as reducing pain and increasing pleasure and the bad the opposite, what about the other beings? do we have to take care of their pleasure and pain also? what if the earth and the other planets have pleasure and pain?
These all leads to a question of why did we exist and what happened that we are here with a perfect sync with nature? But do we really have to solve these questions first or we can start from the easier questions that affects directly each one of us? Why? because the beings, were they be animals or humans, are able to communicate their states whether is it distress and joy, pain or pleasure in a very clear manner.Although nature and planets can also communicate their distress at one point, it is still in a very different nature to the human and animal expression. So this is a quite good starting point. Of course we wish that one day, we discover answers for the hard questions and we should keep on trying, its part of solving the puzzle and enter another evolutionary phase…
As usual, existentialism thinking wouldn’t reach much of conclusions, but we should never loose the creed to know and discover what is beyond our imagination. I decided to put my efforts in education of people, at least to give them a solid base to ride on their own personal achievement. Moreover, the timing of this mission is critical. We are living today in a flat world, in an abundance of knowledge and the ability to access it in extremely cheap ways. This convergence of technology is giving us unlimited power and creative abilities more than ever before.
Enjoy.
Men & Marriage
Lately, the topic of marriage stroked my brain as I see more people next to me getting married. So I was thinking to myself when would I or wouldn’t I ever get married. Then, I paused and rewind my memory back to all people whom I knew before and after they got married and was thinking deeply about the causes that might affected their decision. I started slowly to put down on a paper the below BULLET points about what causes marriage for our middle eastern men, a brutal reality in my opinion that might shock some and amuse others.
Now, if you reading this please don’t tell me you qualify without the saying yes the following conditions:
- Being more than 25 years old
- Having the experience of living with a woman for more than 6 months
- Have dated (and/or slept-with) more than 15 women
Maybe this is crazy but if you see the impact of those experiences on your preferences, you will understand why they are important. Again preferences are important in general, I have written a post about preferences, I encourage you to read it.
So talking about THE women that it is right for you, this is the place where a man would feel and realize biological, emotional and mental coherence with the partner and develop a genuine conviction that this is the RIGHT ONE to keep for a life time.
Finally, it is really sad to see unhappy couples. It is even sadder to know that they don’t know why they are not happy. As Jack Canfield said in his book “the success principles” that your current situation is a result of the thoughts and believes you created 5 years back and your current thoughts and believes will shape the 5 years or maybe the decades you would live.
It is important to note though that this post is not meant to encourage people to get divorced and re-married! Not at all. In the end, Human Beings have an amazing capability to adapt to even the hardest situations ever. If you are not married though, I advise you to take marriage seriously and be wary of the responsibility ahead.
