A Good friend

They say all you need in life is good friends , and I can only disagree with such statement , as you need oxygen , water , food , money etc... but really  if it wasn't for your friends , would all these things have any taste at all?

A friend is anybody you love and have a stable deeper then the normal good-morning-how-is-work  relation , someone you enjoy going out with or talking to. You can have hundreds of colleagues and connections ,and tens of friends, it's easy to form new friendships and you can do it anytime , anywhere with the conditions that there would be other humans there ( you don't even have to talk a commune language )   , but good friends are really rare , you can't make them out of the thin air and once you have one , they bring out the best of you and you bring out the best of them.

A good friend , is a person who is always authentic around you , never wearing a mask and never changing faces , he is the person who fears for your friendship does his best to preserve it and would never lose contact with you even if he immigrates routinely . He is the person whose opinion you can't ignore even if you have your mind set on something and nobody else could make you change your mind about it .

He is the person who is always honest and direct to you about your flaws and mistakes but is always trying to change you to be better ,yet he accepts you for who you are . He would warn before you do something stupid ( and how surprisingly frequent is that ) , and when you don't listen he would tag along with you and risk bearing the consequences of your bigot actions just to make sure you stay out of troubles (or don't fall in them alone ) and don't end up killing yourself or with a broken leg, or simply to be there to call the ambulance quickly . He  would understand the motives behind most of your actions and would always act in a way never to embarrass you , and even better help you achieve your goal . He is the first person you think of when you're in trouble and the first who calls you to know if you are going well once he hears about prison breaks , he would always know what gifts to get you on your birthday and when to give it  to you ( if you hate birthday's), and -shockingly- he is the one person you don't wonder for hours about which gift to buy him on his birthday , he also happens to be one of the people for whom you buy gifts sometimes even if it's not their birthday and who would get you gifts without any occasion.

A good friend is the person who gained so much of  your trust that you don't mind him using your laptop without your "surveillance"- even if you believe privacy is as essential for your existence as air and water - , not just because you don't mind him knowing those tiny little secrets that makes every one of us who they are , but also because you are sure he wouldn't be digging for them anyway ( not to mention he might be already knows most of  them)  . He's just someone who is more then trust worthy and as close as a brother to you , someone who knows stuff about you that you don't know about yourself , yet he doesn't just accepts all your flaws, he enjoys them,  all while trying his best to "fix you " and in return - without even being conscience of it - you find yourself doing the same. A good friend would always do what's better for you ( even if it's against your will ) , he's that person you can't really get angry from , one of the few people that can really hurt you with their words or actions ( yet he never does) . He is the one individual that you would happily take the blame for him ( well you wouldn't be happy for being falsely accused  , but you get my point ) , and he is one of the rare people who wouldn't accept it and would denounce themselves to save you (all while getting you into more trouble because you didn't reveal who was the true criminal from the start, but it;s the intentions that count ) , and then if you are in a really bad mood or after a terrible situation , just a brief eye contact with them would suffice to make you both explode in laughter no matter how disastrous the situation was.

 That is A Good Friend.

Who is your "role model "?

I can't remember how many times I have been asked this question since I was five , by my family , by my friends , by my teachers , and by an innumerable number of strangers . It have been asked so many times it has almost lost it's meaning to me , and for many times I had given the same overused answer " I don't know " , unless the person would require an answer and insist that I have a role model and that I have to ADMIT it, sometimes even shout in my face and threaten with whatever they can do to harm me if I don't admit who is my role model ( which should be considered as an act of ideological terrorism ) and if they don't get the answer to that enigma that have troubled philosophers since the down of men and which would have ended all wars , ended poverty and kept earth stable in it's orbit around the sun .they would just leave - luckily - while mumbling about how our generation is the worst since the creation of men and how Egypt is gonna become a Somalian colony by the time we are twenty etc...

Back on topic , the reason I never reely had a role model is - I guess - because I never had a real goal (except for one that I have had my whole life, but I don't need row models to guide me for that goal ) in life, because I have very high standards for a role model ( they have to be perfect , period ) . And because I realise I have some boundaries and I don't want to choose a role model then not excel at all they excelled  at ( I know there is a contradiction in the last two sentences , that's partly why I have no role model . I also don't see myself on the path of any other man, and partly in defiance to that specific stranger whom I mentioned in the first paragraph  .

 I have no role model , but I do have an ever growing list of people I respect and/or have inspired me ( I am skipping the religious and family characters, it too personal ) . 

Tesla's most famous legacy , the Tesla Coils

Nicola Tesla : One of the founders of modern age physics and the man who was ahead of his age by at least a hundred years ( some of his ideas are just starting to be researched now ) , the real and first inventor of the radio ( but it wasn't admitted till after he died so Marconi still was the one to keep the Nobel prize) , the radar, Tesla coils , the Columbus egg  and over 200 other inventions , he was the first to create artificial thunder coming from the sky, his researches permitted the creation of X-rays and hundreds of modern day machines . But what actually made him on the top of the people who inspired me is because of his researches on wireless electricity and electromagnetic fields .( Tesla appears on the 100 Serbian Dinar)

Utopia , the only long novel by A.K.T

A.K.Towfiq : A modern Egyptian writer , and he was the reason I started loving reading and his series and novels are the main reason I know most of the people on this list . Aside from that , he was one of the people who taught me how to think ( I started reading his books at a really young age ) and left a huge imprint on my life and personality.



The 25 jan rebels : Needless to say , these guys changed ( and are changing ) not just my life , but the way I see that life .

Napoleon :
Gorge Orwell :
C.A.Crumlish

I'll keep editing this post and add more when I have time ( the list is huge )
