Wake up and smell the coffee

One of the issues that has, during my experience at the university, attracted my intention is the matter of love between students.As far as life is concerned, love, as one of many complex concepts, makes a clash at the university field.

Love is one of the problematics that disturbs, in terms of the thinking process, students' minds.Thus, some get enough of what they already know, but others seek to know more about it. This means that they have to get into practice. The practical side, in terms of the lived experience, shows the real image of such a matter. Hence, and from my experience, the one always asks so many questions: What? Why? And how? And how it's, really, hard to get the answers and deal with them.

Your being a student makes a barrier against you. If, maybe, you know what love means, are you ready to do so? A successful relation leads to marriage, but are you ready to get married? You need time, but who'll wait for you? And what guarantee you'll give?

In short, and to clear the deck, I'm not against love but-and as the proverb says: Wake up and smell the coffee. In other words, and as far as realism is concerned, you should be realistic.

:A short inspirational story
Two frogs
A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them
fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit
was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead. The
two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit
with all their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop,
that they were as good as dead. Finally, one of the frogs took
heed to what the other frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down
and died.

The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again,
the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die. He
jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the
other frogs said, "Did you not hear us?" The frog explained to
them that he was death. He thought they were encouraging him the
entire time.

This story teaches two lessons:

1. There is power of life and death in the tongue. An encouraging
word to someone who is down can lift them up and help them make it
through the day.

2. A destructive word to someone who is down can be what it takes
to kill them.

Be careful of what you say. Speak life to those who cross your
path. The power of words... it is sometimes hard to understand
that an encouraging word can go such a long way. Anyone can speak
words that tend to rob another of the spirit to continue in
difficult times. Special is the individual who will take the time
to encourage another.

If you have never sat alone and asked yourself who you are and how you came into being, then take it for granted that you still don’t exist. Until you develop your own independent thought, speak out your mind, and establish your kingdom; you will never find a way to freedom and self-actualization. I have been undergoing awkward moments since my adolescence, struggling to set a balance between …

Cultural diversity has fueled a hot controversy more than ever before. The world has become such a small castle because of several rampant scientific revolutions diffusing all over the world and making communication so complex, fuzzy, and multi-dimensional.

In regard to this breathtaking state of human life, it appears that human existence is in need of many metaphysical conditions like safety, …

One of the best ways to improve one’s way of teaching is the action taken to globally evaluate our performance in class during the whole year. Evaluating one’s way of teaching and reflecting on it provide the teacher with a precious opportunity to notice his or her points of strength as well as the areas that need improvement. Yet, the way the global evaluation of our performance is done is …

Many of the norms people are used to were a set of abnormal beliefs and practices. The tendency to hold power, status, and fame was and is still one of the most predominant triggers of society’s irrational mind. The later becomes tangible via the normalization of the abnormal on the account of the norms, which must be determined by …

Though culture changes through time, norms may not. They drive us to behave this way and not that one. Our behaviour, then, is cultural but not necessarily a correct one. Virginity of woman, for instance, is necessary, otherwise society would reject her; even it was the force of circumstance that was the cause behind losing it. What about man, doesn't he have virginity to keep? We're still in a …

Instead of tackling other points on the issue of equality between woman and man, we're still in conflict with each other,thinking of who is right and who is wrong. we're still in doubt whether woman has the right to behave as a human or should be treated as doing with animals. Isn't she one of God's creatures? Don't we recall His saying: "O! People we created you from the same male and …

While a person dreams of becoming someone else, norms drive him down to remain as he is. A person always longs for a new future, yet norms reject but sticking to an old past. We have been imprisoned since the moment we were born, yet, fortunately, we are capable to get back our freedom by the time we grow up and develop self-awareness. To …
