Do not bother read this, it's me trying to get it out, that's all

Do not bother read this, it's me trying to get it out, that's all

The more true I try to get with her, the less she trusts me, the more she judges me and the more she discovers that I am not the daughter she dreamed of. The perfect daughter. She wants me to be the perfect woman, someone who puts morality above everything. As much as so many people think I'm a moral person, my mother thinks I am pragmatic and immoral.
She says, why would you go to a place that has shisha in it? Mother, she's an arab friend, they always have shisha's in their home. I dont like these kind of places and people, she replies.
What kind of places? What kind of people? Did she even ask what the hell we were doing? Did she even bother asking about what kind of things I do? What kind of person I am, or what kind of person I like myself to be.
She says she doesnt talk to me to judge me, but to ask me...Well, that's a wonder because the first line in the phone call was "Sara, I dont like your lifestyle", so much for asking!
In the middle of all this self-explanation I am supposed to do, I am also supposed to survive my mother thinking that I am an immoral hoe who doesn't care about anything, and survive my father who thinks that he needs to "tame" me, and reconstruct my personality.
My boyfriend who will not let go of a relationship I am not ready to have.
My best friend who doesnt understand that he hurts me in every other sentence he utters.
My other best friend who never called, and at the same time hates being called a traitor.
A dear friend who needs me, and does not understand that I need her too, and that we can help eachother.
University work that drains anyone, and rewards no one.
And, at the same time, I am also supposed to reconstruct my life, make peace with things that had hurt me, and try to be happy again...and find comfort in the solitude and absence of all the things I should but am not able to survive.

One's Own World.

I can help people, but I cant help myself.
I probably need someone to help me...but they're probably too busy getting my help.

I said I needed to get away, I needed to get away from everything and everyone...then I discovered that I had forgotten how to. I thought of getting away by being absent in the mind, it kind of works.

I still need to create my own world. I loved my own world. I miss it.

Once for Yourself, and Once for Your Dreams

Existing, I have to ask myself...what have I done with the years passed? What will I do with the years to come?
Will I ever fulfill childhood dreams, absurdities? Will I, ever?
It makes me scared to think that one day, I will have to be scared, and live life as if a phase of waiting. Live life as if the days are separate from one another, I just have to get through my days. It makes me scared.
The days to come.
Will there ever a given, something to hold on to? What will happen when I leave? Will I, really, come back?
What are the fact? Are there any?
Where's the guarantee that I will be happy? Where's the guarantee that I will enjoy life today, or tomorrow, or the days after that?
If I think that life is all there is, then I'd better make something out of it.
Once for yourself, and once for your dreams.

حياة

لو كنت لاسميها الآن
لكنت أسميتها حياة
لها نفس التقلبات
و عنف الأحاسيس
تلقي النكات بنفس الروح
الألم و الضحك
ممزوجان
تمشي بسرعة
و لكن بغير اهتمام
و تنام
ساعات النهار
لتعرف نفسها
في الظلام

Unpopular Beings

Today we went to Vlad's birthday, me and Gogo. A girl and a guy there clearly do NOT like us. They treat us like "locals" or even "natives", no idea why they do that...Gogo and I are not that traditional perse... but they do.
So anyway, Gogo is so troubled by it.
Didi, did we do something wrong, something that offended them?
No we didnt, they just dont like us, 3adi, the more you are yourself, the more people get to dislike you. (me)
Well, maybe we did something that offended them, like...I dont know just something, there must be a reason why they hate us.
I dont think so, I think they just hate us because we're really strange people and they are scared of trying new flavours.(me)

And that was it...
And the question is, Why care about people's opinion if your own opinion, and your close friends' opinion is much more valid? Why do you think your friends compliment you when, in fact, they are the ones who know you best?
