About Me
I’m Sudanese with a sprinkle of Turkish, Egyptian & Ethiopian blood somewhere in my ancestral line. Have been born, raised & still reside in the UAE. Have a crazy obsession with poetry & hip-hop lyrics. Struggling to understand this paradox called “Life” & trying to come to terms with the adjective “evil”. Itching to save the world & aiming to have a positive influence on whoever crosses my path. Truth, knowledge & justice are what I crave. Tolerance, moderation, open-mindedness & piety are my goals. & Yea, please spare me your fancy ride, posh apartment & designer clothes. If anyone wants to impress me, amaze me with the strength of your character, richness & intellect of your mind, purity & faith of your heart, beauty & depth of your soul & the virtues you exude. Ya heard!!! My final note: Isn’t diversity beautiful? Each & every one of us has something the other doesn’t have. Thus, we complement each other. Please, let’s overcome our differences & enjoy humanity.
