Why A Great Life?

To tell you why a great life for the name of my blog, I have to talk about something probably no one will think I am going to talk about and no one likes talking about , It's the end of my life " MY DEATH".

Anyone is reading right now will probably panic or will think I am crazy or depressed or lecturing myself or others. NO! Believe me, it's not the case at all.

It is totally a new and different approach than what we are used to, when talking about death. It is not sad or heavy or difficult. The way I think about it is if you want the Wright beginning, you will have to think about the Wright end.

One day, in a very quiet and peaceful moment, I was sitting with myself asking myself: do I live the life of my dreams? Is it the best life for me? I don't mean the material things or the people in my life, no. I have alhamdulelah a great husband, family and friends and a great home. What I mean is: am I doing my best to create the life that fulfills my soul, the life that captures the essence of who I am and all of my values and my faith, the life that on my last day on earth I look back to it and know.. It was A Great Life.

From that moment I decided to make all the changes that need to be done, step by step every day, to create A Great Life, and then I have chosen to create a blog to record my personal growth day by day to never lose myself, and to find more motivation for change and share it with my friends and maybe other young women, maybe someday I could help anyone by any way.

This blog is about MY JOURNEY to find my authentic self, to keep myself on track in case I get week or confused or lost, so there will be NO RULES! Some days I will write in Arabic, others I will write in English some times the spelling will be Wright, others it will not be, some times in fosha some times not, so on! It all depends on what goes on in the unique strange head of mine!

Of course there will be ups and downs. There will be mistakes, there will be even confusion some times, but overall I will make the effort and give it 100% to make sure that in my last day I will know in my heart: it was A Great Life!

Last thing, the answer for why A Great Life is: Why not Great? Why to settle for less than GREAT, after all, it is.. MY LIFE!

رائع يا خديجة... أحييكى :)

فى لحظة ما .. نسأل أنفسنا كيف تمضى بنا الأيام.. يوما بعد يوم .. ننجرف بعيدا .. نفقد تصالحنا مع أنفسنا .. نجد انفسنا فجأة على مفترق طرق او امام موقف ندرك عنده اننا لا نعرف أنفسنا .. من نكون .. وماذا نريد.. فى تمثل تلك اللحظة قررت أنى أريد أن أحيا الحياة التى حلمت بها دوما.. تلك الحياة التى أعلم فى أعماق نفسى أنها الحياة التى يتجسد و يتجدد فيها إيمانى ..سعادتى ..طموحى ..أحلامى وأهدافى .. لذلك قررت أن يكون .. كل يوم يمر على.. خطوة.. نحو.. الحياة الطيبة.
