A Time of Year..
This is the time of year when one contemplates, reflects and reanalyzes what accomplishments were done throughout that last year or throughout a whole life time.. I guess it is a good time for one to reassess, redirect and re-plan one’s life or even just go on with the old plan if it’s working out..
However depressing or chaotic things around us may seem, I still believe there is much good around us. I decided to post these few words as a reminder for all of us to think of what good each of us can do other than the usual daily tasks one is busy with throughout the year such as studies, work or day to day obligations..
Give it a thought.. what can you do this coming year different than the years before.. How can you better your self, feel better about your self, make better of a situation or another person’s life if possible…
I thought you should have a look at this.. I am sure many of you have seen it before but consider it a reminder if you have and an eye opener if you haven’t, to be thankful for what you have..
Not only that.. may be one can give a helping hand.. too

It’s a good video Rasha. It helps to put the numbers in perspective.
The question becomes: How much to we value life, and to that end, how much are we willing to share? To what extent are we willing to give up at least some of what we have, so that the world as a whole will become a better and more equitable place?
I have to believe that our world is an experiment of sorts. The decisions we make over the next several generations will not only determine our fate, but will determine as well the ultimate meaning of our existence. If we continue to abuse one another, then our existence was for naught. If, on the other hand, we find a way to invest in one another so that everyone on earth has a place at the table, a stake in his or her future, then we will have realized our full potential, and will have confirmed the efficacy of God’s creation.
The video makes clear what the current situation is. The real question is; where do we take it from here?
