Who am I?!

Wednesday, December 24, 2014
I remember my first day at school here in Egypt, actually I felt like an alien! I felt different, back then I didn't analyze it or even care to work on it, I was just a little kid.. Days went by, but the feeling remained.. this feeling of being strange and distant from people around me.. most of the time I used to sit in that back corner desk, and if I managed, I used to have it all alone.. in the break, most of the time I was alone eating my sandwiches which I used to have in a plastic box while all other children used to have it in a normal plastic bag!

By time I managed to develop some friendships.. but not much.. I always kept my distance, very few who managed to cross this line and get closer to me.. and I really made it hard for them.. when I approached my teen years I started to feel there is something wrong, I'm not a normal person, and I felt I needed a professional help, but definitely this idea never crossed the borders of my mind.. back then I used to be the silent observer in conversations although I had a lot to say and share.. and that was the time when I developed this diary writing habit.. It was the only way for me to express whatever thoughts I had in mind and wasn't able to express in talking..

Back then I thought to myself that when I grow older things won't be the same and I'll be able to be a different person.. but I was wrong, totally wrong.. here I am starting my 4th decade in life and I still have all the inner complications and fears.. still feeling like an alien, still hold myself from expressing myself in talking, but the new developed thing is; actually I barely have anything to say..

I've always felt like hiding the real me, hide my opinions, always be neutral, try to compromise in all situations.. and by time I guess I forgot who I was, or even, I feel I grew only on the outside, but internally I'm still that kid.. it vanished by time.. so when I try to remove the dust and discover who the real me is, I don't find anything.. I only find emptiness, distraction, fear, and suppressed feelings!

A bright white blank new page :)

Sunday, December 07, 2014
The news came a shock for me.. after four years of having high hopes.. well, at times they were high hopes other times they were the lowest ever.. but I always had a faint hope that one day it will work! Even when I said I was over it, my subconscious always brought the thought of him to me.. Whenever I'm assessing a new crush, I just compare it to the attraction I had for him, and he always won, unfortunately.

I've always wanted to put an end to it, and just tell him all about it, but I was afraid to loose him as a friend.. so I decided to live with the may be, till I get the news of him being in a relationship. Yes, I always believed that was the only way to put an end to it.. and here it happened.. but I was shocked, and relieved at the same time.. finally, I can move on..

I need to thank him, wished I can thank him in person, but well, I can't guarantee I can do this without punching him in the face.. so, I'll just thank him here, may be one day I'll be able to show it to him.. I want to thank him for making me realize how dumb I was, I've been always waiting for a miracle to happen without even trying to work for it.. and that's a general thing in life.. he showed me that I need to; get off this loop I've been going in all my life, to start taking control of my life, to go ask for whatever I want, and to start a brand new page of my life..

I lost him.. but I'm sure this loss will bring me a new happy life..
