Weight Loss Endeavor


Today I'm going to embark on a heavy task, and when I say heavy I literally mean heavy. I have been preparing my self for the past few days now on going on a diet. I know to some of you out there this might not be a heavy task but for those who had weight problems and tried on loosing them they know pretty much how hard it is to undergo this kind of ordeal. Its a mental game really, self control I might say. Although I'm not what you call an obese person I'm pretty much overweight considering my age and height. So this is it for me. Let's see what happens as I talk about my weight again in a months time. Wish me luck!

Old Life

There are times when its hard to accept the things we had done in the past. When I left my work and resigned to me it was the only option left, the pressure was just too much to bear. Thinking about it now I don't know if it was the best decision but still I feel now as I felt before that I had run out of option it was just between leaving or to dig my self deeper, but what is done is done and there is no point of going back and forth and the thing I have to face now is to move on with my life and be true to my self. The truth is I miss my work terribly, I miss the work, I miss the people, I miss my staff. And I was wrong to just cut them off my life, because I'm ashamed to have given up on them when they until now haven't given up on me.

Obama


So Barrack Obama just gave a speech at Cairo about America's new relation with the Muslims. I don't know about this but is this really gonna change everything, we all know that Mr. Obama can talk the talk but can he really change everything in four years or perhaps even in eight. Muslim's hatred towards America is a complex situation. It's a product of decades of foreign policy, whether those policies had failed or succeed would be a long story. Mr. Obama was right that there has to be a point where you start fixing the relations between a culture of freedom versus the radical Islam. Is America willing to pressure the Israeli government towards achieving a lasting peace in the middle east. Are they willing to pull out their troops from Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries to which some Muslims find offensive for American soldiers to be there. Can they even make a truce to Osama Bin laden without looking like cowards. The truth of the matter is we live in a world where there is no complete solution to the worlds problem. We may solve every problem but we will never get ahead, America will have to compromise something in order to achieve something. It's not that I don't believe that peace can be achieve with the Muslims but the reality is it's not for America to make peace it's for the Muslims to do it. Obama's appeal will only be effective to those who are on his side already, it will only strengthen their belief that he is a good orator but for those who wish death for America no amount of speech can change their way.
