Tribute to my friends!!

My Mind has a new header and I have to thank my friends for it …

Omar was kind enough to create this nice header for me; I am really amazed how creative this guy is and not only because of my header; we have all seen some of his work and I know that you agree … thank you Omar for this; I really love my new header and avatar, but since gravatar site is down for maintenance, it will be some time before you can see that lovely avatar in action )

Also, Bakkouz assisted me in uploading this header on my CSS because I am not a CSS pr PHP expert and I am always lost in the jargon; thank you Bakkouz … I appreciate your help wallah )

My Wasta with Omar was my lovely vivacious friend Amino, she helped him out and they did not tell me they were preparing a header for me until it was finished and ready to use … Thank you Amino!! ) and MMuuuuaaaahhh

And how can I forget my best friend Jad; he was the one who set up this WP blog when I first moved and he edited the CSS and sidebars and everything; Thank you so much Jad … you really came to my rescue when I mostly needed it )

If you cannot see the header, CTRL + Refresh and hopefully you will

What do you think?

America’s Deadliest Wars … Who is Behind Them?

I hope you remember the time I posted the summarized history lesson about the Middle East and who controlled it, because the site from which I got that lesson has led me to another interesting one … just take a look at the below flash movie … It seems they were always in a state of war or maybe I should say: unnecessary war most of the time!!!

Enjoy!!

My Mind is One Year Old!!!

Exactly one year ago, I started my blog (Mind) …

Happy Birthday Mind!!

At the time; I had known about blogging for some time and was interested in the whole idea; I read a lot about the concept and visited some blogs that interested me with their content and variety.

Being a person who likes to speak her mind, I decided that this was the perfect name for my blog, as I believe it to be a reflection of my inner thoughts and some of the things that take place in my daily life. Sometimes I talk about events in the family or with friends, other times I talk about my convictions regarding certain issues that concern women mostly.

I have enjoyed readers who keep coming to my blog and it is because of them that I continue to write, because they hear my voice and my thoughts. Debates with them are among the most enjoyable things I do and I love their comments even if they did not agree with me at times; they have the right to express their ideas as much as I do and I tell everyone; feel free to express your ideas as long as it is not under the personal attack context becauase that is the only thing that I do not tolerate )

I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I did and I hope that you will keep coming back for some bits and pieces of my MIND!!!

Happy Birthday My Mind )
