INK ON PAPER
"Arrest warrant issued over 'crimes against humanity' for Qaddafi and son"
Said the local news...
Dear Santa,
I am issuing a couple more over "crimes commited by Israel against humanity", over "false promises made by the USA", over "crimes commited by the world against the children in Africa", these children are dying each day by hunger, if not by illness caused by the "civilized" countries.
I have been good this year... but you do not exist Santa.
All my wishes will remain just Ink on paper...
Qaddafi will die a hero...
African Children will not survive...
I will grow up eventually and understand this game...
Maybe tomorrow
A ROUND OF APPLAUSE
When will people understand that everything around them is just illusion, figment of their imagination, pictures of what they truly desire, nothing more, nothing less...
I am turning this Blog a little Political.
First of all, a big round of applause for those who think they can save what's left of this lovely country...
Please do clap some more.
Clap your hands for those who sucked the life out of you for the past decades and are now your government.
Clap for them, your hands are getting rusty anyways. You are not working... Use your hands, make yourselves useful.
Clap your hands for those who won't fire their weapon on you unless they think it is necessary for the better of the "country".
Clap your hands for those who did not participate because they are not majority and sadly lost the political struggle.
Clap some more just to tease the virtual enemy they told you about. the bad bad enemy.
I live in a country where sheep rule sheep and wolves are circling around to find a good prey in vain.
I live in a country where hatred became so loved it took a punctuation mark and translated it into a team effort to forget to forgive, stabbed you in the back without having the decency for a reach around.
A round of applause to all of those who participated in this big event.
Thank you

TRUST ME, I HAVE TRIED
- How can you trust someone who has tried and failed?
- Trust me, I know, I have tried, I always failed, but trust me...
- Why did you stop trying?
- I expected the same result...
- How can you expect the same result if you do not try again?
- I don't, I fail fast, I carry on...
- What's your name?
- Robert
- What do you do Robert?
- I'm a Comedian
- Well, you don't make me laugh
- I know... I tried... Trust me
- hehe

PEOPLE ARE INCREDIBLE AND I AM HAPPY
I have tried so hard not to think about it,too hard, but I couldn't...
It has been a while, I thought that Happiness is nothing but what is left of sadness
The change you get when you buy something cheap. The change you keep in your pocket hoping it might come in handy one day.
A drop of rain...
I found my happiness in a drop of rain...
Here comes another...
fifteen drops of rain, fifteen smiles, fifteen joyful beginnings and fifteen happy endings...
My pockets are full now, it is time.
I am Happy.
Regardless to what I thought I might feel when I meet happiness again.
I am not Sad.
Anxiety left the house.
Making people look incredible, making me Happy...
Happy, even before the sixteenth drop

TAKES A PIECE TO KEEP A PEACE
Alerted tranquil stability confuses me...
People should not allow Human Leaders' reign.
Power should go to the people.
Peace should conquer in Power.
Peaceful power confuses me...
Peace is inner, power is everything else, even nothing. Have you ever seen a power plant running on peace? It runs on fuel. What is fuel? It's nature's idea for generosity. What's nature? Everything and nothing... Life is full of nothing
The nothingness in life confuses me...
- What is your job?
- To keep peace
- Why are you carrying a piece then?
The piece of peace confuses me...
Maybe i was born too early or maybe it is just too late, but forcing peace confuses me. Trading guns with roses confuses me as well...
You cannot kill with a rose.
You cannot salute people with a gunshot.
You only have one shot in life and for some it's a gunshot that declares its end... That's life...
Isn't life confusing?
- How much are you paid to do your job?
- Not much!
- Why do you do it then?
People from other nationalities, religions and races defending my peace confuse me.
People from other nationalities, religions and races with no peace in their homeland trying to defend mine confuse me even more!
- May I ask you one last question?
- No!
- Why do you do it?
- TO KEEP PEACE!
- What peace?
Bang! My shot in life was served...
- MY PEACE!
Death for peace confuses me...
My Death...
People should not allow Human Leaders' reign.
Power should go to the people.
Peace should conquer in Power.

WE MEAN BUSINESS | WE SELL ART
God is the Proactive Creative Director in the Celestial Creative Department who met a 7 days deadline in 6 and had one left to spare.
Adam was his Naive Copywriter, with Eve as the Secretary handling the Research Department.
Adam and Eve worked together to Brainstorm. Everything seemed so perfect, so organized. God allowed them to drink the creative juices of all the fruits in his agency except one.
Snake was handling the Marketing department of that specific fruit and needed to sell it. He needed the commission. How can he convince them to use it? What could interest Eve? Why Eve? Well even in Heaven it is known that Sex sells!
- Eve?
- Yes Snake?
- What if i told you i had something that could boost your knowledge and make you think better, wiser? maybe you'll be upgraded to the status of Angel in the service of God. God can always use an Art Director, and with your experience, i think u just might do. You just need something powerful along the way.
- Oh My! This is exactly what Adam an I need! What is it?
- You need an Apple! And God knows that, after his favorite Angel left him to open his own Agency, He could use someone with your capabilities to prosper again!
- But... But...
- No Buts! Get your Buts out of the Box and think of your future for a change!
- Oh My! What Would God Do?
- Drink The Juice and you'll know!
And Eve did and so did Adam...
- Eve?
- Yes God?
- What Juice are you using?
- Apple, God!
So Eve and Adam were kicked out of the Agency. Apparently God was a PC, and on the seventh he created an operating system, he did not rest...
Snake stayed in office but was degraded. God thought he could use an apple from time to time...
Adam Decided to open his own Firm, he called it Civilization and since then he freelanced with both firms but more on the Marketing level... He came up with the "first" approach, the "3 in 1" approach, the "New and Improved" approach, and my own personal "None" approach. And Adam saw that it was good!
Eve switched to the HR department then ended up as a simple Housewife who failed to be fair to 2 children. Apparently One was Jealous of the other. Some say He killed him... I don't know... I cannot Judge on that!
"Heaven" is the first Advertisment Company ever created.
"Heaven" works on "Seven"
Be Good, God might open his Window someday and you might get some work. Take nothing but your Curriculum Vitae! Take nothing but what you did Good in where you are now. The more Good done here, The better your position will be there!
As for the "Hell" Agency, well that's another story...

THE WORSE BEST
Good things happen to Bad people.
Bad things happen to Good people.
If nothing is happening to you, then you have to pick a side my friend.
Nothing happens simultaneously, Everything happens according to how you act...
So...
Tell me what's happening with you, I'll tell you who you are.

I cannot tell you what i will do tomorrow, but if you come back tomorrow, I can tell you what I did today...
EVEN A FAKE ROLEX CAN GIVE YOU TIME
The chances were even:
- It could have been stolen
- It could have been fake
Only one truth resides from this trade. The time was correct! It was noon, that's what the sun was telling me, on this sunday over Beirut.
I went in looking for DVDs but went out with a Rolex in my hand and a witty smile on my face. I was knighted at noon!
It was there, looking at me. Maybe because no one was looking at it. Maybe because no one knows what this brand stands for.
"Look at it sir! It glows in the dark!" said the "salesman", pointing out the only feature he can make out of the product!
I smile and tell him politely that the glow could disturb my slumber. "I am a very sensitive guy with desperate needs for peaceful sleeps. You have to do better than this to convince me!"
I replied trying to keep my laughing eyes behind the shades. The laughter should not appear, it will point out the obvious.
- It is yours for only 3$ sir!
A Rolex for 3$!
- That is too much for a watch! I only carry 2 on me and I need 1 for my ride back home! Look carefully at the watch! Is it time for a sale or shall i come back later?
I don't know what got into me, but the number 3 seemed even more fake than the watch itself...
Luckily, he was dumb enough to think he was doing the smart thing and agreed, but told me to keep this trade as a secret. And so I did... or did I?
A Rolex for a buck!
That's a fake satisfaction i can live with!
Don't be afraid to be fake from time to time, because sometimes what might look like the "fakest" may be in fact the realest image of what is your observer conceiving.
Wear a fake brand from time to time.
Fake smiles create rather than demolish.

FEELING FREE
You kept them locked for a long time. One day you decided to let them go, run wild... mingle.
They did, but they never came back.
You didn't know what to feel exactly then... You had none left

MAZEMERIZED
I once finished crossing a Labyrinth in a world time record. What might of took hours for others to complete, took me minutes.
And I stood there, by the end of it, amazed of what i have accomplished. It was really impressive...
Now What?
I mean i am here, harsh roads behind me, a long steady one in front of me and a light at the end of it.
I know what passed, I can see the end, but I am totally lost to what will come in between...
All roads lead to Rome my friend, it is very easy to get there, but do not go if you do not have anything planned!
The real maze comes after the Labyrinth

BAG YOUR FEELINGS
- Did you bag any illegal feeling for this trip sir?
- No sir! The journey is small! And the amount of feelings allowed in this trip is limited to one per mood, so there is really no room for illegality in this old bag!
- Did someone you don't know, place a feeling in your bag without telling you?
- Sir, Even the people i thought i knew well never handed me real feelings! All i got bagged are ones of grief, mourn and bitterness! It's a business trip, I don't have time for mood swings.
- Very well then! Welcome aboard the "Experience Express": We express what you experience in feelings!
- Thank you! I replied with a smile! And Damn you for making me use the only sweet feeling I had hidden, this early...

RED DELIGHT
I opened up the door last week with this weird feeling. It was neither curiosity nor any other familiar feeling, but something had me up from my couch and made me do it. Then it hits me. Behind last day’s left over something was looking at me and smiling, all blushed and fresh. I close the door simultaneously and go back to my seat trying to mind my own business. Then, slowly, without me wanting this, I walk back to the room, stand next to the door, hoping she would notice me. Did she? I could never know unless I open it again. Should I? I mean I want to! Can’t get that smile out of my mind. Be a man young fellow! So I take what’s left of my balls and open the door quickly but still make myself appear like I am looking for something else, hoping to catch a glimpse of her tender skin. But whom was I fooling? Her?
We make eye contact and I become red, like her, but more…
That look! It can wake up a dying zombie; it can sober a drunken monkey.
She smiles!
She was the prettiest tomato I have ever seen

PICELESS FREEDOM
I once talked to a slave and made him look like he is a genie. No one appreciates this comparison. I even felt bad for doing so, but I had to, to get that slave back. I should have just given him his freedom… A genie, all-powerful as he may seem, is just a slave in a bottle and you can never be friends as long as he sees a master in you.
I will set my slave free, but not today. I still have one wish to ask and then I will set him free. I think I will…
- I wish you’d be my friend!
- Your wish is my command, said my enslaved genie, and that made me smile…
- This is all I wanted from you. Now go… you are free!
The Genie disappeared and shaped himself back as a friend and came close, looked at me and smiled back. A smile so fake, it couldn’t have hit me more! Is he my friend now because I wished for it? Was that a pity smile I received? Am I doomed to an eternal friendship, which will never change, vary or vanish?
So I ignored my new friend.
He called I did not answer
He tried to reach out for me but I pushed him away
Last I heard, a genie friend killed himself. The news said it was the lack of attention…
What have I done? Was it bad to wish for a friend? Was it bad to free slaved mind?
I think I should have freed the genie and then wished for his friendship… but then he would have neglected my proposition. I mean it is possible! He has his own mind now.
I wanted a slaved genie as a friend… I should have freed him first… now I lost both.
