Evil prevails

Posted by Afnan on January 5, 2016
Do we believe in this saying? I think even if we don't believe it, we almost apply it in different aspects of our lives. This is completely unfair and it makes us put very different things in the same group. As a result, we prevent ourselves from observing and feeling the positive sides or the bright sides of many things.There are many examples of this wrongful classification. We sometimes hear about a horrible crime in some country, so we simply deal with all people from that country as criminals. Also, some bad behaviors in some countries become famous, even if it is not restricted to that country, but what we do is that we generalize that behavior to include all human being in the country without any exceptions. In addition, we often hate some people of specific nationalities just due to political reasons.Actually, in this way we close our minds and eyes and we become worse than the blind. The person who commits the mistake takes the responsibility of his mistake, not the whole people of his country. In each country and in each nationality there are the good and the bad people, no nationalities are better than others, but there is the person who is better than another. So don't be racial!!!

Is English considered a subject?

Posted by Afnan on June 10, 2014
I see the problem of many people who hate English or have great difficulties in learning it is that they consider it as a subject. In fact, most of those people think that they have to learn and keep a huge number of vocabulary and grammar to become fluent. As a result, the frustration often prevents them from improving their language and overcoming the obstacles.English needs to be an interesting part of the daily activities. The learner can read about many exciting topics that he might or might not be interested in. Also, he can listen to a variety of useful videos and talks or even watching English movies. In addition, he can find a native English speaker and speak to him as much as possible. Moreover, it is a good idea to write an essays about topics that attract him or write to his friends in English. In such ways, the learner can strengthen the different English skills without dealing with it as a school subject.However, the learner should keep in his mind that the starting of everything is difficult. In other words, he may need at the beginning to learn some grammar to build the basics, but after that he could incorporate this with interesting activities to deepen his knowledge and sprint towards the English language world.In brief, each person has his preferences and ways of learning. The most important thing is that he has to choose effective ways that keep him motivated and help him to reach his goals without any failures.

Our Dreams

Posted by Afnan on August 24, 2011
Our DreamsWhen I was small I was thinking that dream is a beautiful thing but it is impossible to become reality.Now, I have a different look for dream.Sometimes the dream is not something impossible or needs a miracle to get out into the light, but it needs hard work.So, hard work may be the key for most beautiful dreams, but through that work we may lose some friends because they don't give us the excuse when we are busy, we may lose happy moments with our family, and we may lose happy times of our life which are difficult to compensate.Why do we need a lot of losses in order to achive our dreams?

What is the connection between heart and love?

Posted by Afnan on June 15, 2011


We used to associate heart and love. I asked my self what is the evidence for that?

 

we always say " I feel pain in my heart" if we did not see our friends or parents for a long time. why we do not say" I feel pain in my kidneys" for example. My brother is studying in the outside and sometimes my mother says "afnan my heart hurts me" But in fact I see different thing  because she looks tired in all her body . So maybe the heart is the main organ in the body which linked with love but in the same time the remain organs also work with heart and affected by feelings. We face a lot of problems in our daily life and the heart can not bear every thing alone so the remain organs come to heart and say" Do not worry we will help you" :)

And this just my opinion and my thinking without scientific reasons of course ...
