Most of us quote René Descartes on his Cogito, ergo sum - I Think, therefore I am. So? What does it really mean and what am I referring to by using the term Cogito?
As per the Merriam Webster dictionary, Cogito represents the intellectual processes of the self.
Hence in this section, I include a first series on financial awareness by presenting complex concepts in a simple and accessible way. I additionally contemplate daily situations in "This And That". Starting January 2021, my FB campaign of “How Can I Help You” is now also published here and advertised on social media. Curious enough to know more? Feel free to read and comment 🙂

This is not a rant. I didn't have a bad day per se.
I am not complaining about it either.
It's just that sometimes things happen and you lose your balance. Just to regain it :)

It's Monday. And a public holiday.
The sun is shining high in the blue skies and it's warm for a winter day.
What else does one need to get out of home?

It's Sunday. The weather is wet and rather fresh. I have decided to stay home because my very close friend is visiting to hang out.
As I wait, my cats make themselves noticeable. The ladies evidently want to play. The interesting conversations I'm looking forward to will be started at a later stage with a human counterpart ;)
And as it happens, we catch up, get somewhat emotional and start talking about hypnosis and consciousness levels.

One of those Saturdays. Where I have many things to do and just decide to chill... and just do what I do without stressing out whether I do all I had planned to do or not 😊
|
As I wake up and check the news notifications on my phone, I read that Qasem Soleimani was killed in an air raid in Iraq. I immediately start checking the groups of rebels in Lebanon to see whether any action related thereto has already been undertaken. The day promises to be quite interesting...
|
On the second day of the new year, I'm very energetic and eager to return to the office... how long will I sustain this mood?
|
I got all worked up about my idea. It's kinda exciting...
Now it comes to writing it down. And the first thought that comes to mind is, "How do I get started"?
I promised to keep it to one thought/idea/event a day. Let's see

Final thoughts as I peacefully spend the last evening of this tumultuous year reflecting and introspecting.
|
Last year, on November 22, while heading to the airport, I felt the urge to write. Check my rant here.
I remember having mixed feelings: on the one hand, I was happy to go away from the organized chaos to take a breath of refreshing air, all the while wanting to celebrate Independence day in my country of birth...
This year felt totally different. And somehow I couldn't write about it. It was another event that triggered me. Read on to find out more :)

No.
This is not a review of the movie starring Kirk Douglas, Laurence Olivier, Jean Simmons, and Tony Curtis.
It's about this secret fiber in my heart, itching to speak out loud. On the feelings I am experiencing and the uprise that got me closer to a people I previously felt little to no connection to...
|
More than 13 days into the Lebanese people's uprise, many things have happened.
Nothing too surprising so far.
Let's have a recap and sort of quick analysis of the facts.

I cannot keep my mouth shut when any weaker or so thought creature is assaulted. My friend, an accomplished mountaineer who can in no way be considered weak, has been molested earlier this year. What happened to her ain’t right, and requires to be spoken of to fight it! So many women still have to face the ordeal of sexual harassment. My friend's incident got me really upset and in between calls and messages, I killed time by researching a bit to find out what the laws in Lebanon regarding this matter looked like. I was disgusted. And I started writing...
