Did I Even Deserve To Go To Med School?

Image
There is a very good chance that you already know this but, I have wanted for the life of me to go to med school. I wanted to be the dope ass heart surgeon who built dope large ass hospital and discovered dope ass discoveries. I was dreaming about it. I was designing my hospital and imagining what different floors would look like. This is my passion. You know it is because I am getting kinda emotional writing this. I even got a stethoscope at one point and was using it as motivation to push through stupid subjects and topics that I had to deal with in my senior year of high school. Like I said, It is my passion. I  love  it.. truly. You get my point, but... I didn't get into med school and I am kinda salty. It would be very easy for me to blame this on the system especially that I am known for good grades.. generally. And also especially that everyone already talks shit about the educational system i...

موقف حصل معايا

الموقف دة حصلي من زمان بس حسيت أنه مكانه يتحط هنا... مرة في المسجد رن تليفون أحد المصلين أثناء الصلاة... قعد يرن مدة طويلة وأول ما الصلاة خلصت انتشرت الهمهمة في المسجد وبدأ الناس يعلون من أصواتهم بالكلام من سبيل: "والله الصلاة ضاعت عليا" - "يا جدع حرام عليك" - " دا مجاش في باله حتى يقفل التليفون". وصوت الناس في هذا الوقت كان أعلى من صوت تليفون الراجل لدرجة إنه كان يضايق الناس الي بتكمل صلاتها (يعني الناس الي دخلوا الصلاة متأخرين) أكتر مما كان تليفون الراجل دة "بيشوشر عليهم" وهم بيصلوا. وأنا ببص على إمام المسجد أو الشيخ كنت منتظر أنه يوقف الفتنة دي في حين إن الراجل صاحب التليفون مكنش بيتكلم وشكله مكنش عارف يوقف صوت التليفون لأنه كان لسه بيرن. كنت مستني الشيخ يقول: (( يا جماعة في قصة سمعتها قبل كدا بتقول ان كان في واحد تليفونه رن في وسط الصلاة والناس قعدت تزعقله وكسفته فمبقاش يجي المسجد تاني.. فطلع عالقهوة فاتكعبل ووقع رف كوبايات...

Your first 100 Creations are gonna suck. Get them over with.

     You may have seen me doing YouTube videos, writing these blog posts, posting to IGTV and even talking about starting a podcast. That's overwhelming. It really is!      You may even ask me: "Aren't you embarrassed with these stupid YouTube videos that you are posting?", and in that case my answer will simply be: "Yes!" Well then, Why do you keep doing them?      Here is a fact, We are all creative people.. in our own different and very unique ways.

Why this is the most valuable thing anyone will ever tell you

Today, I would like to share a piece of writing that I wrote a while back. The reason I am sharing this again now is that I really do think the message it carries is really powerful & wonderful. Please do me and yourself a favor and leave whatever you are doing and read this. -من أهم ما قد تسمع -وأنا الأحوج لسماع هذا الدين الدين الدين فالدينُ أساسُ الحياةِ، وإن أردت الدين فالصلاة الصلاة الصلاة فهي عماد الدين فإنه قد تهبط عنك الزكاة إن كنت غير مقتدر، و قد يهبط عنك الصيام إن كنت مريضًا أو علىٰ سفر، و قد تهبط عنك فريضة الحج إن كنت لا تقدر على أتعابها: مادية أو جسدية. ولكنك إن كنت مريضًا تصل وأنت جالس وإذا ساءت حالتك تصلي وأنت نائم وإن لم تتوفر المياة فالتيمم، وقد نزلت كل أركان وفرائض الإسلام على نبينا محمد ﷺ على الأرض عدا الصلاة، فقد فُرضت في الإسراء. قال ﷺ: (إنَّ العبدَ إذا قام يُصلِّي أُتِي بذُنوبِه فوُضِعَتْ على رأسِه أو عاتقِه فكلَّما ركَع أو سجَد تساقَطَتْ عنه) كما أنّها أول ما يُحاسب عليه العبد يوم القيامة، وآخر ما أوصىٰ به الرسول ﷺ فقد بقي يردّد رسول اللّٰه ﷺ: ( الصلاة...
