Jerusalem Is Bored!

Hi everybody,
 
The good news is : My fiancee had her voice back and we're really enjoying every second possible of our time.  So thank you dear because I am I am blessed because of you :)
 
Now to Jerusalem because she's bored and I owe her a big favor: I couldn't make it yesterday and post something my friend! Nothing wrong but like always, I'm terribly trying to put some effort in organizing things and bring them to some descent order! Thanks God, I have so many things to do and most of them are good and I enjoyed doing them despite that I always suffer from being run out of time! I hope you will enjoy this post and will help you get out of the boredom state you told me you have.

 

The first thing I want to say is this: The best part of having a blog is that it's all yours; I mean it's a place to rest your weary head and speak your mind. People don't get fired for typing their thoughts.  You don't have to worry about what you say or type.  I am really happy for this and it gets me happier watching many many others speak their mind certainly better than I do it myself. It just feels real good when people open up and have us see the real good persons they are inside.

 

You know Jerusalem; I like my blog a lot.

 

 Still bored Jerusalem? Then let me try cheering you up.

 

I felt good lately because there's nothing like seeing people inside your circle fall in love!! Let's not call it "Fall in love" but you know when they come to you and tell you they feel comfortable when somebody is around or when they think of X or Y a bit more lately? You know what I mean: It just starts like this then things shape in a magical way and you finally get invited to a fate7a or jaha thing .. yeah, it makes me feel so good and happy. I can hear the bells ringing for many friends of mine so I suggest calling the year 2006 a very good year of change & personal achievements, what do you think?
 
3ogbal el kol  ; )

 

Actually 2006 is so special and good for me and for many others around here. I really met people who dramatically changed my life! Some came and went while others will stay for good (saying this about all of you guys inshallah).

 

By the way, the weather is so nice outside. I had a 2 hours ride me & M.M and we enjoyed the sunshine as we went to Industrial Estate and came back.. I just like this M.M , zaky and solid to the bone the way I've always known him since we met in 2002 .. Honestly!

 

Solid to the bone leads to what?

 

Yes.. leads to George Thorogood and his Bad To The bone master piece.  Music always makes me feel good and right.

 

Lets switch to another topic because I know myself: I won't post nothing new for a week!

 

I discovered lately that I am experiencing a new kind of feeling that I know well. An absolute state of "work boredom"! It's a continuous feeling that I am left with the new me who is corporate! I know the word corporate doesn't make sense in this context but I just don't know how to explain it more.

 

This is a feeling I sometimes get because I used to be a regular person digging for answers & searching for dreams all the time. Nothing much changed in me but now a days I lead a team and dig for new opportunities at the same time! I don't really know if this is better or worse but I know one single thing: I have a feeling of boredom because I am not satisfied for what I do!  

 

Today I am thankful for the peace that descends upon me when I get paid at the end of the month provided that my job is good, half fun but quiet and peaceful for the most part of it but I am not sure I can run like this for another year! God knows what the future hides and it's our responsibility to ensure a better future , not anybody else.

 

See, you aren't the only one who is unsatisfied for what you do . Actually most of us aren't satisfied and it's kind of a MUST TO be continuously looking for better opportunities every now and then. I do you it , you do it and everybody too. Inshallah we will all have better opportunities and best of luck all the time. و بشر الصابرين

 

[By the way : what is that green creature that lives in the desert and eats rock?]

 

Finally, I would like to share an article with you.  I read it a while ago in a magazine called "The Japan Journal" and it's about job opportunities in the land of plenty. The article inspired me and filled me with hope so I scanned it and decided to have a couple of words on it.

 

I also know this post is quite a long one but it's worth 5 minutes of your time.

 

Well, first of all, lets agree on this: I'm definitely so aware that the Jordanian Economy is way too incomparable to the Japanese Economy; but still, lets assume that our economy will revive and lets imagine what would happen (inshallah ya shabab things will work for us like in Japan : ) )

 

Have a look on the part bound in green. It says: it's heaven for those who are about to graduate from colleges because each graduate will end up with 200% possibility of getting a good job offer keeping in mind that listed companies are only a small fraction from the total number of employers in almost all economies in the world ( makes sense).

 

The best part is the way that the companies try to attract those who apply for job opportunities in order to make them accept their offers. They take them to fancy places people!! This is what the good life is all about!

 

On the other hand, the parts bound in blue just describe how miserable & misfortune those born in the 70's are! (Like me & Rasha!). Read on and you will figure out.

 

The part in pink explains the facts while the underlined part defines the bolts and the nuts and put things into perspectives.

 

At the end I would like to quote the Quran : "و من المؤمنين رجال صدقوا ما عاهدوا الله عليه.. فمنهم من قضى نحبه و منهم من ينتظر... وما بدلوا تبديلا.

 

A couple of words to Mr. Saber: Inshallah you willbeing part of us here, welcome ya fandem ( is it spelled fandem or afandem? I say afandem with an A!)

 

Have a good night everybody.

 

PS still bored Jerusalem? If yes , tell me! I will  use my music treat next time ;)

What can Jerusalem say?
No, thank you does not fit in such a situation, it's not even enough. Caring, understanding and above all CREATIVE, these are the new characteristics I will add to your old ones, or maybe I was too late to figure them out!

Maybe I'll come to visit you in your job because I need to find out where those innovative ideas come from :)

The whole fact that you wrote a post because I was bored overwhelmed me, I'm so grateful to you, beyond what words can express :)

Did I enjoy it? Of course yeah; actually this is what we call piece of art my friend. Long with full sense indeed!
Let's just get to the main points that touched me so deep without being over sentimental.

The beginning part is very good, I got your point. You are such a bold person and I admire that about you. I'm not gonna dig any deeper in this part, denial and ignorance are the best solution sometimes :)
Then man, let's navigate to the economic & HR part, I really enjoyed it, sometimes people are so boring to discuss such issues; plus, the article is nice, I get excited when I read those types of articles.
I'm sorry to say this, but 5alas Fadi ra7at 3alaikom jama3et el 70s, hehehehe.

Words can't express what I felt or what thoughts were coming back to life in my mind when I read the post, so enough of the too much talk.

BTW: Economics is my baby, currently it's not the only one, but it's my favorite.....
