A little About Me

[ Home ]

 

Who am I :

   My name is  Manal. I am a 24 years of old Libyan lady.  I  Graduated as a computer programmer. I live in Tripoli - Libya.   I speak Arabic, "mother tongue", and  some English.... hmmm what else!! ... Guess this is all...

 

A Little About Me:

     About my character, I can say that I'm a very simple person,  quiet,  easygoing, not talkative, very very bright ;) , reliable, tolerant, patient, practical, realistic, positive thinker and optimistic...... Well, These are the good things ....  My best quality is that I always like living in  inner peace for I believe that no one can harm nor benefit me, not even a little bit not even at all at all, but Allah almighty..... I may also add that I really love to help people as much as I can. Whether they are friends or just acquaintances, it is always my pleasure.

Looking at the bad side of me I would say.. I am a very very careless person you would hear me saying "I don't care", and "it's not of the slightest interest or any of my business" thousand times a day. I also am a kind of sarcastic, cynical, hard, cruel and tough person at times. Some people say I am sort of an ambiguous person, but I believe they just can't see that I am "too" clear. My worst quality is being crazy and psycho sometimes.... People who meet me the first time they usually don't like me, they see that I am too serious, but when they get to know me better some of them change their attitude, for better or for worse I'm not sure. However, I don't care.... BAD PEOPLE.

Hobbies and Interests::

I like reading so much. I can't say I am a good reader for time is always a real problem, but whenever I have time reading is always my choice. It's the world to which I like to go when I am down, or when everything and everyone seem really stupid, and dull. Reading gives my mind something to chew on and keep it busy. I also like computer programming for it's challenging and very interesting. It's a good exercise for the brain cells as well ;). In addition to this, I like collecting postcards that show tourist places.

I am, in some or other way, interested in psychology. I always like and try to discover and understand the self. It's a very interesting thing to wander inside the self, open closed doors and peers to what lies behind. oooohhhh so interesting. I believe we can't understand others, if we don't understand ourselves in the first place. It's true that understanding the self is a live time process, but it helps a lot when it comes to dealing with people.  I like to meet different types of people I like to look inside of them through my self, and look within my self through them.... there's always some thing new; there's always something to learn. ... demented talk... I know ...I agree.

However; the things that I am not interested in, at all at all, are all kinds and types of music and animals.

 

Favorite English Quotes:

-Stock your mind. It is your house of treasure and no one in the world can interfere with it. If you bought a house that needed furniture would you fill it with bits and pieces of rubbish?. Your mind is your house and if you fill it with rubbish it will rot in your hand. You might be poor, but your mind is a palace.

-What doesn't kill me make me stronger.

-When all doors shut there's one open.

 

Favorite Arabic Quotes:

 

 

I like almost all the poetry written by Imam El Shafiaai. Here's my favorite

             

 

وطب نفسا إذا حكم القضاء

دع الأيام تفعل مـا تشـــاء

فما لحوادث الدنيـا بقــاء

ولا تجزع لحــادثة الليـالي

وشيمتك السماحة والوفـاء

وكن رجلا على الأهوال جلدا

وسرك أن يكون لها غطـاء

وإن كثرت عيوبك في البرايـا

يغطيه - كما قيل- السخـاء

تستر بالسخــاء فكل عيـب

فإن شماتة الأعــداء بـلاء

ولا تر للأعــداء قــط ذلا

فما في النار للظمآن مــاء

ولا ترج السماحة من بخيـل

وليس يزيد في الرزق العناء

ورزقك ليس ينقصه التــأني

ولا بؤس عليك ولا رخـاء

ولا حزن يدوم ولا ســرور

فأنت ومالك الدنيا ســواء

إذا ما كنت ذا قلب قنــوع

فلا أرض تقيه ولا سمــاء

ومن نزلت بساحته المنايــا

إذا نزل القضا ضاق الفضاء

وأرض الله واسعــة ولكن

فما يغني عن الموت الـدواء

دع الأيام تغدر كل حيــن

 

 

أسس الصداقة

 

 
 

فـدعه ولا تـكثر عليه التأسفــا

إذا المرء لم يرعـاك إلا تكلفــا

وفي القلب صبر للحبيب ولو جفـا

ففي الناس أبدال وفي الترك راحة

ولا كل من صافـيته لك قد صفـا

فما كل من تهواه يهــواك قلبـه

فلا خـير في ود يجيء تكلـفــا

إذا لم يكن صفو الوداد طبيعــة

ويلقاه من بعد الـمـودة بالجفــا

ولا خـير في خـل يخـون خليله

ويظهر سرا كان بالأمس قد خفــا

وينكر عيشا قد تقـادم عهــده

صديق صدوق صادق الوعد منصفا

سلام على الدنيا إذا لم يكن بهـا
