Revolution [ˌrɛvəˈluːʃən] – When Egypt wrote new History!
From the Latin revolutio , "a turn around" It is a fundamental change in power or organizational structures in a short time. The original term of “Revolution” is to change the government and the governor, as well as the whole political system in a country. When we look back at the Egyptian Revolution, the real reason was not actually to change the president and his corrupt regime and shuffle all the ugly faces around, but it strives to change the way of life and thinking of the average Egyptian. There were injustice in the first place, but people were still satisfied and grateful for what they have, but what is with our future? With the next generation? And finally people realized that they want a better, more peaceful and democratic life. Where everyone can talk freely and say his opinion, as long it is in a respectful way.

Who Am I?
This is a lifetime “question”, I believe it’s difficult to be answered, because everyday, one learn something new about his/her Own Personality. Life, Situations, Problems we face, friends, family, Age, ect ect.. Change us. Every single thing, -even the small little things that we think, they don’t mean anything- changes us in a way or another. Lama, a dear friend of mine and a great writer who wrote an Article “Reflection Of My Thoughts”. She basically talked about her “Journey” through her eyes while looking at her self in the mirror and how she doesn’t care about what people think about her. To be honest she gained all my respect! :) Anyway, after reading her post, I asked my self: Who Am I? Hmm.. my Name is Nesma, I’m 20 years old, yes I’m, although I totally agree with you, I don’t look like 20 at all. I behave like most probably 15 years old. What should I say? I have a “inner child” inside me. I love to laugh, be happy and take life easy, nothing is worse it. Serio...
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. - Nelson Mendela
