A few days ago I was asking a friend to tell me “What is the worst trait about me?” or “What is the most annoying thing about me?”. I do this every once in a while to increase myself awareness and see myself from other people’s eyes. The answer was:
“You think a lot, and take only very few actions and sometimes even take no action at all”.
At first I wasn’t convinced since my friend wasn’t able to mention a specific situation where I didn’t take action, while I should have taken action. Then I remembered that someone told me something similar, in the past few months, that’s why I decided to consider improving myself in that aspect, and take more actions, rather than only thinking, writing, and giving speeches.
Today is 25 Jan; the Egyptian Police national day; it’s a national holiday. There was all that fuss about protests that was going to be happening today, protests showing disapproval of bad living standards caused by the rotten government. This situation was ignited by the resent protests and violent acts happening in Tunis that pushed Bin Aly; their president to leave the country.
On facebook there were two different directions on where those “Peaceful Protests” should be organized. Some said it would be smart to hold such protests in small alleys in poor places, because this would prevent the police forces from interfering with these protests, and if they try to do so, the poor people suffering severely from low standards of living, caused by the rotten government, will stop them! Others recommended performing the “Peaceful Protests” in wide areas and main squares in the country (as usually done in most countries of the world).
