Not any ordinary Human: Thinking

Well this is a strange post but something I wanted to get out of my chest. I'm no ordinary person. I have a problem. The problem is simple. I think too much. Now I know you must be going hang on a minute we all suffer from this. We just cannot switch our brains off. But wait there is more.

I suffer from over thinking things that are out of my control and yet I want to solve them. These are aspects like:
  • Eliminating Poverty
  • Annihilate Corruption
  • Rid Slavery
  • Better life

Now everyone thinks oh wow interesting but many other people think about this and talk about improving the world. Do you know I find it hard to sleep because I know that this is going on in the World. It is hard to focus knowing that someone is going through hardship in life. There is food on my plate and yet someone is starving somewhere else. How can I help them? What can I do. I love to give charity but it isn't enough and you never know where the charity goes unless you give it to the person it is destined to go to by hand. I am only 22 years old and this problem started to occur in my life when I was much younger. I think it was when I was 10 or maybe younger. I told you I'm no ordinary person but what can I do to solve this problem. I can switch off my brain but the heart is never going to be satisfied.

I get hurt a lot reading of what happens in the Kuwait let alone if I knew what happened in the World. I used to go to a blog called Kuwait Exposed where I read about everything sick you can think of. They have stopped posting but if you read it you will feel shocked or say this is not possible but these are some of the things that happen in our society. Recently I've read in the newspaper about the police officer who raped a Filipino woman and felt sick. He is put in a position where everyone should feel safe with his presence and yet some of the police (not all) take advantage of their positions. I know of very good police officers who are fed up of what is going on in Kuwait. Wasta is a big problem in Kuwait and crime goes on. It is hard to understand how this happens but it does. This is also part of this post as I hope justice is served. I have read in LWDLIK that he will be castrated but I would go with another option seen in the picture.

Stick with ONE

So recently read Expat and the City about having a second, third or fourth wife. I thought that it wasn't a big deal as it is allowed in Islam for a man to marry another woman under certain specification of course. Then I read this recently in Arab Times:

Man comes home to wife and in an intimate moment she takes out a knife and stabs him in the shoulder :/
KUWAIT CITY, July 11: A case of murder attempt has been filed against a Kuwaiti woman after she allegedly stabbed her husband with a knife following reports he had married another woman, reports Al-Shahed daily.
In his complaint to the Jabriya Police Station the husband said his wife stabbed him in the shoulder and that he managed to escape from her.

A police source when the husband arrived at the police station clutching his hand blood dripping from his shirt, fainted at the entrance and he was rushed to the Mubarak Al-Kabir Hospital.

The wife will be summoned for interrogation.

I was shocked but then I remembered that I heard a similar story before. As a guy I would recommend most men to communicate with your spouse before getting into trouble. Don't you want to live a peaceful life, stress free?? And as you own one heart it is clear you can only truly love one woman. I am still trying to think about how she could have stabbed him that way. She must have been really mad to be the last one to have found out.

Men and Women moving further apart

"Arab Times, Jan 8: Mars and Venus are much further apart than previously thought - and we're not talking about planets. In research just published, three European psychologists, using a new model for analysing personality differences between men and women, claimed the gap between the genders has been solely underestimated in previous studies."

In my opinion this is very clear in the society but what do you think? I thought it was a Kuwait thing at first but turns out it is a global problem. How to solve it is the question since it can lead to people feeling depressed and seeking companionship/friendship but due to the fact that ....

.... This is what's happening in the society and has become a norm (sick) that it is hard to change the way people think. I wish the society was more normal where friendship is acceptable under respectful terms and that people take life more seriously where if they're interested in a woman, they get married rather than play the stupid games that are going on.

What can be done .... Nothing? Something! Don't know :/
