Behind every successful man there is a great woman, But who is behind that great women??

In our society it’s very well-known that family comes on the top of the list in a woman’s life, and they would do anything to support their children and their husbands. Women’s hard working for the sake of their families happiness is something that cannot be denied by anyone. Therefor when we see a successful man in our society, women will feel very proud and happy if they heard the term “behind every successful man there is a great women”, because it shows how supportive they are to their husbands, and giving them such a small complement like this will encourage them to do more for their men and it will give a meaning for their hard working.
But have we ever asked ourselves from where did that great woman came? And how she became that great to support her husband?
My dearest reader, I don’t know if you have the answer right now or you will think about it for a while, but for me, i would directly give my answer with big pleasure and  complete the uncompleted phrase by saying” behind every successful man there is a great woman, and behind every great women there is a greater father”.
                                      
 When a father believes in his daughter’s abilities and support’s her throughout her life, then there is no doubt she is lucky and she will become a great woman that can serve the society in the best ways and work at the highest positions.  His support can come when he gives his daughter the freedom of choice in her education and in her personal life preferences and in choosing her life partner.
                                
I agree it might be a huge challenge for a man since we live in an eastern society when the uncle and grandfather also have their saying and their opinion about you daughter’s life, but I am positive that it is not impossible.  Dear fathers, your supports means a lot to your young daughters, because if you supported her she won’t only support her husband and be the reason of his success but also she will serve the entire society and be the reason of its success.

I definitely can…
Hello my positive, energetic readers. It’s been awhile since last time I blogged something.
This time I decided to write but in a different way. i didn't type my thoughts and feelings on my laptop, tonight I am in good mood to use my pen and write on my favorite yellow papers, then later I will type them and so that I share it with you.
I am sitting in the balcony, surrounded by little green trees, beautiful flowers which my mother takes care of.  Breathing fresh oxygen and staring at the moon every three or four minutes. The moon is not full but it is so bright like a pearl. My neighborhood is very quiet but alive and full of energy. I can hear different voices. Cars passing by and on the other hand one of my neighbor’s children just came out to ride his little cute blue car, then there is the most interesting voice you can hear during summer. Can you guess!!!! Come on guess!!!
Ok ok, I will tell. The sound of a cockroach “cheg, cheg, cheg” is a very noisy sound for most of the people. I agree with that, but since I love summer this sound fills me with the crazy spirit of summer.
Today is the 13th of September. A day which I waited for since the first day I started my internship. My dearest readers let me make a confession. I have the habit of choosing the hard path to walk on. When I do that, I always ask myself “can you make it huda!!!!You will not embarrass yourself right!!!”. But few minutes later I force my brain to get rid of the negative thoughts and cheer myself up. I go and stand in front of the mirror telling myself: listen huda, you have been through harder tasks than the upcoming one, so get rid of your stupid negative thoughts because you definitely can do it.
When I started my internship I didn’t know what was waiting for me. Today after exactly one month I feel so proud of me. i still can’t believe how I became committed to work and how I learned to bear some people  (I know you have noticed how much I am in love with myself and I am never bored to complement myself, “it’s ok, you will get used to my “self love attitude” with time ).
Back to my experience as an intern I need to give some credit to three people who taught me and supported me, actually they are still doing that.  First, there is the awesome kak aso (I consider him like an amazing older brother) a super educated and dedicated person, a man who can hold his anger " that is if he get's angry". He is the one who opened the door for me, and I decided to use that door, i thin i am lucky to know him. Then there is Ari, the always smiling guy. He is the most loyal person I have ever met in his work. I ask him whatever comes to my mind even the most stupid questions, and he always holds the answers to give them to me.
Last but not least, Kak Rebwar (the presenter of “kawanai sur” program at Rudaw), he treats me like his student and in a very sweet way that I sometimes feel super grateful.  Very educated and open minded man, and very serious and professional in his work.  i can feel it he believes in me and supports me a lot and one day I will pay him back.
Those three people are the most highlighted amazing people that I am surrounded by. I ask, they answer me. I work, they support me. One day, and very soon when I am successful in my life career, they will be on the top of the list to thank them and show them my gratitude in front of the world. I still have one more month left to work as an intern, and every day I get even more motivated to prove to myself that "yes, you can do it”.
I will stop here tonight, but in the upcoming days I will be sharing good news with you. 
                                                  
                                                     So stay safe and positive.

Don’t worry if you lost your way

Sitting in my room and wearing my glasses, surrounded by a bunch of papers and some pens, phone on the ground and listening to a soft relaxing music after having a long interesting day at work. These days I think a lot, and I talk a lot with myself, I ask myself lots of questions about what I did in my life till now, and what I will do in the future. I ask myself whether what I experienced worth to experience, i feel alive and awesome to think about life from time to time because I seriously didn’t know what I really wanted, or maybe I actually knew what I wanted but I just lost  my way.


I have never complained when I was getting lost, and when I didn’t know where I am going. I traveled a lot and I have always lost my way, going to the wrong  neighborhoods and missing the right way to go back to the hotel… but I never felt bad or afraid, actually I was enjoying being lost and not finding the right road to go back to the right place, because on my way I was experiencing things that I have not planned, things that i have not thought about before, and on the other hand, there was always that voice, that little gentle voice close to my ears telling me, “it’s ok, everything will be fine, just don’t be terrified, you will find your way”. That voice never proved me wrong.  

Usually people feel bad when they are lost, which it’s the very normal thing to happen. As for me, I have never felt like that, actually I enjoy every single minute of my being lost. Some might think of me as crazy and immature but I have my own reasons to feel that way and I have my own philosophy about this.


I believe that it is not that bad when we lose our way, when we don’t know where we are going, when we don’t know what we really want. Actually  being lost is healthy, because sooner or later we will find our way, and when we find it we will be so passionate about what we found, and we grape it with teeth and both hands.
When I am lost, I try everything and i go crazy about everything. I get over excited and i enjoy whatever comes to my way, because I know and I am sure, there is a reason for whatever I am experiencing and this will shape my personality , the way I will see the world, and the person I become.
I have been lost for a very long time and I was enjoying, but I am not anymore and i feel peaceful. It feels different when you know where you are going but at the same time it feels serious, because I finally found that special thing, I found what will make me happy and what will make my eyes sparkle all the time, I found what will make my heart beat even stronger and what will make me smile all the time and keep me excited. Don’t get me wrong it is not “someone” but actually it is “something”. Therefore as long as I found that thing, I won’t let it go, I will keep it in my heart and close enough to my mind.

 Sometimes a chance comes and knocks on your door, and then it is your choice to open the door or just keep it close. But there are other times when that chance never comes therefore you have to be brave enough and take the decision to chase that chance and grip it from its back and bring it back with you. But remember never be afraid of getting lost, because  no matter what happens, and no matter when it happens, you will find your way because if you have the passion about life and the passion in being a great person you will find your way.

Stay strong and full of hope… no one can stay lost forever.

I work, but they do not pay me…

Since school is off and it is summer, I have seen lots of young students starting to work in new jobs and use this summer effectively and fill it with productive ideas instead of sitting home and get bored then complaining about life. Some are continuing their work and others started working for the first time in their life and they have no experience, those who don’t have experience are the most passionate individuals because they are eager to try something new and learn new things and get some experience, and I can tell I was one of them few years ago.
                Dear reader you might say this is not very interesting, because everyone can get a job and get paid for it. I tell you, true, but what if I and my friends work and for almost six hours a day for three months without getting paid and we are happy about it? What we do might be crazy for some, and specially for the elder generation like our parents and they might say why you want to work all this time and without getting paid? Why would you bother yourself, and they might even call us stupid and call it a useless job since we are not paid for it.
                Let me tell you what we do is not a useless job; actually it’s called an internship. Now am sure you are asking yourself what that is, and why some youth are doing it. To explain it simply, an internship is working in a company, NGO, media or any other place for a period of time without getting paid, to gain experience and you will be called as an intern then after completing the period of working you will get a certificate as a reward. This certificate will be very useful when you graduate from university and when you apply for a real job. To be an intern will add a very positive point to your resume or your CV.
Sweet reader, an internship is a volunteering work and you will get so many advantages out of it, so do not think inside the box, be open-minded and try to use this summer to learn new things and who knows maybe through experiencing an internship you will find what you are really passionate about.
p.s : Through my internship now i am more sure than i was before about what i am passionate about  :) :)

                 My first report

So at the beginning of this August I changed my timeline picture on facebook to a picture that says “August, surprise me”, and it seems like August could not disappoint me. At the beginning of this month I started a new, awesome experience in my life, an exciting and full of knowledge experience that will fill my mind and my heart with unforgettable memories.

As usual, whenever I start something new, I start it with excitement and positive energy. I entered the place and I looked around with a big smile on my face, knowing most of the faces but they don’t know me “soon they will” ;). Everyone was so busy and working very hard, some were super stressed and others were doing more than one thing at a time. Stress and hard work was so clear at Rudaw TV since they want things to be almost perfect. To be honest, I loved the atmosphere because I am used on being stressed and under pressure all the time, so I was so ready to be taught what to do and where to sit and where to go, one of the things I loved in me was I was not shy to ask, even if I am going to look stupid, at least I will be stupid for a short time not till the day I leave this place. So I was asking whatever came to my mind.

My friend kak Aso is my supervisor for three months until I finish my internship and he will be teaching me everything I need to learn. As for the first day I learned the basics and started to do new things and work on other things for the first time in my life. Now I know how things works behind the camera and how and by whom all these programs, news and shows are prepared.

Second day I did the same things as the first day adding a new thing, I made my first report. A news report done by me, by finding the topic, translating it to Kurdish and then recording my voice, then finally the report is ready to be on TV. 


I can’t wait for the upcoming days and see what they have for me to learn. I am sure there are hundreds of things there waiting for me to learn them. Wai babaaa I can’t hide my excitement:D. Maybe for some, working for three months without getting paid is nonsense, but for me it makes sense since I decided to learn new things and use my time in the right way instead of sitting home and complain about life.

The coolest thing in EID "jazhnana"

"Jazhntan piroz" and "happy EID” to all of my positive readers ....
As it is jazhn, i was thinking about things that i am grateful for during jazhn and i found many blessings and uncounted things that i and you can be grateful for.
 jazhn's atmosphere is different and very special. people and neighbors visit each other and celebrate this awesome day and i am sure you do the same.

Since Kurdistan is part of Middle East you can easily imagine the atmosphere here. Most of the families wake up early in the first morning of “Jazhn”, and Men go to mosque to pray the jazhn prayer and congratulate each other by saying jazntan piroz and giving three kisses on one chick, (it's like part of the culture). But for women it's different, it is four kisses, two on each chick.
Then it's time to have breakfast at home, and one of the special things about jazhn is the breakfast because you won't have tea, some cheese with bread. No actually it is different and i call it supper special... in this special morning most of the families prepare white rice, beans, apricot soup and chicken or red meat... 
If nothing gave a special feeling of jazhn's spirit, the breakfast will definitely give you that feeling. 

You know everyone have their own special things to do and their own favorite things in jazhn, so for me everything about jazhn is so amazing but there are two awesome things that i always wait for them in jazhn,,,,
My first favorite thing in jazhn is hearing "Allah Akbar"
Every jazhn i wake up on this sound, when the khatib of the mosque is repeating the "Allah Akbar" which it means "God is the greatest" three times, i feel peaceful and grateful that am alive. When i open my eyes hearing this and i simply give a smile to this world.
My second favorite thing in jazhn which is the most awesome thing everrrrrrrr is “Jazhnana” or “3idya".
i am now 21 years old, and i am no more a little girl, but till this day i enjoy getting my jazhnana with a big smile on my face and a heart full of excitement, sometimes i feel i am still that little eight years old girl and my heart will come out of my chest when my father or my uncles call my name out to give me jazhnana. 
I know some of you might see it a little bit childish since am not a little girl anymore but i can't handle the overwhelming feelings of excitement in me. Maybe this is jazhn's effect on me, taking me back to the old times and waking up the spirit of that little girl in me.
I am grateful for these little things that put a huge smile on my face and make my soul fill with happiness.
You too start counting your blessings and be grateful that you are able wake up this morning among your beloved family members ....

Let’s learn from the three hard working angels.....


Hello...Hello...Hello.....


Dearest positive readers of this blog...
This time i won’t be writing about a topic or about something but actually i want to share a story of three angels with you and what they do in their life.
This story is not romantic nor a detective one, it's a real story inspired from our life and the characters are three walking angels on this earth, and to be clearer they are three awesome, young and inspirational Kurdish girls here in Hawler.
When we grow up and we are not teenagers anymore we still want to enjoy life, experience everything, try new things and take some risks. This is normal since we are all young and we should enjoy life and also enjoy our age, because we only live once and we want to make the best out of it.
But my lovely reader, have you ever thought that beside enjoying life and partying you can do other enjoyable things to help people??? Have you ever thought that a little word from you can change a life??? Have you ever thought that your actions might influence others? And have you ever thought that you might inspire someone with a smile???

I have wondered actually... i always think about these things and i always ask myself these questions.
Why? Because i want to be a better person, so that i change the bad points in me and so that i become a person who can make a change in my society.
I am surrounded by some people that make me and force me gently to think and look for direct answers to the questions that i ask myself since the day i met them.
They are three lovely girls; i call them the three angels. 
Some of the readers might know them since they are super active and famous.
They are Sazan, Bewar and Ashna. Three young ladies who dedicated their lives to help people beside working, achieving their dreams, studying and working as employees sometimes. 
Those three angels are life savers and hope givers, they make you believe that there are still good people on this globe and there are lots of people who need help. They, as simple, humble and wise human beings can give them a hand and support them.
Those three ladies work as volunteers without getting paid for anything and they support the lovely children in "Mali Xanda" the orphanage in Hawler-Kurdistan.
They help the children and specially the little once, with their life, home works and giving them love ,care and support and sometimes finding them a family, yes, when i say finding them a family am not joking or exaggerating what they do.
They found families to adopt some of the children and helped others with what they need. They provided some children with education and took them to school. Those three angels took the responsibility of the children seriously and they treat them as their family members when it comes to support.
Sazan with that wide amazing smile on her face and her full of excitement tone can fill your heart with love and happiness. She inspires other even without knowing that.
Then there is Bewar, when you meet this beautiful lady she will give you a warm feeling to be very calm and strong at the same time, whoever got the chance to meet her knows that she is a big fighter and she won't give up on her case and on what she wants to help others. 
Last but not least the strong, amazing Ashna, the more you listen to her, the more you will get knowledge and the more you will desire to help other people. She is an awesome educated lady that if she set a goal in order to change people's life, she will definitely achieve it.
I know if i wrote ten more pages to describe them and what they do i won’t be fair enough, but i just wanted to remind us all, that we can do great things if we really meant it, and we can make a change if we only pushed ourselves.
Those three young ladies could choose the easy way and ignore what is going on around them to avoid this entire headache like we say. They could just live far away from the problems and just do what they have to do, and they could just continue their study or work without getting distracted by other people's problems. BUT they chose the difficult path to help people and be happier.
Let's learn from them, even if we couldn't do exactly what they do, let's try and do our best and let's put a little smile on some faces that desperately need to smile and be happy in their lives.
Let's start with giving a smile and i am sure we will get another one back :)

A life without a cause is a life without an effect ...

Hello my dearest readers...


It's been almost more than six months since i made my blog but i didn't have enough courage to publish anything...then i suddenly decided to be a little bit brave and write my first article and share it with my new readers... so welcome and thank you for your being one of my first readers .

Few days ago I saw a post on one of my friend’s wall on Facebook says “I was born to die".
A negative status like that is definitely one of the biggest enemies for every positive thought and energy that one can have. I sat down for a while staring at that short phrase wondering  and thinking, then I  realized that although there are many fabulous positive thoughts that one can think about in this world but we always try to keep an eye on the negative and bad points, whether these points are about other people, things, or the society. 
We are always attracted to the dark side of everything, and ignoring the beautiful colorful side that things can have in this life. Humans always tend to be earthier white or black, while you can simply be a combination of colors or at least a combination of both white and black.

 We need to understand that every single person on this planet was born for a reason. Maybe to change the world or make a difference and help others and we need to stop being judgmental about ourselves and others. When we understand the fact that we are born for a reason, we start to think of what we really want to achieve in this life. We start dreaming and planning how to make these dream become realities. By achieving, we can change other individuals, societies and the whole world. 


Some of us might not be lucky like others but at least we need to know that we are blessed for having our life and to be part of this world. We need to understand that we might not be equal which it fine, because as they say, “some are more equal than others”, but we need to remember we are all blessed by being humans who can work and achieve great things first for ourselves then to others who are sharing life with us.

 Let’s all remember we are all here for a cause, because if we forgot our cause we can’t produce new and effective things to our families and our societies.  So be positive and change the negative phrase from “I was born to die” to “I was born for a cause”.
