Since I came here, Dubai, it has been almost one year. Frankly speaking, this place sucks, weather sucks, traffic sucks, people sucks. But it is this shitty place which makes me feel more balanced and happier every day.

 

When I say this place sucks, it does not really suck, it is still better than my expectation. Before I came here, I was told, this is a dessert place, except dessert, still dessert; after I came here, I see green trees, I see park, I see beach, but from time to time, the wind passing you by, taking the sand to touch your feet, which reminds you it is still a dessert place. Before I came here, I was told, this is a restrictive muslin country, no alchole, no smoking, no exagrating clothes; after I came here, I go to bars, I smoke Shisha(Arabic Smoke), I wear my exagrating clothes, but the way people acting reminds you it is still a muslin country.

 

Although my feeling to this country is kind of conflict, but I never really felt unhappy here. When I walk on the street to work, people will say 'Fly Emirates', kid will say 'mum, Emirates'. I feel happy about what I hear. When people help me a little bit, I feel happy about what I was given, cause somehow I know, life here is not easy to each single man. Someone told me I am more mature than before, maybe not really like that, the difference is only now I know how to give my reaction properly.

 

Every moment in your life is an experience. Never think you are wasting your time, God have its arrangement for a reason. Maybe you cannot find out, maybe you will never find out, but this makes you different.

Why we do not feel happy? We are igoring the basic joy God give us.

 

God give us eyes to see the beautiful world, the colourful sightseeings, but we are complaining about the things we see;

God give us legs to walk as far as we can, but we are complaining about its tireness;

God give us mouth to taste different things, but we are complaining about its bitterness;

God give us the ability to fulfil what we want, but we are complaining about its diffculties;

...

 

We are never feeling thankful but complaining. Actually, we are our problems to not feel happy.

Start to pray, focus on the good side we see and we feel. Happiness is nearby.
