The Flying Mermaid ★


Fatigue, burnout, complete lack of power, irritability, depressive mood and generally speaking - black hole. If you are now experiencing this "storm of hormones", it means only one thing - time to renew your body and spirit!
Work, home, children, studying, a lot of duties... It can overwhelm and sometimes only a few worse days are enough to get completely out of power. Regardless of how old you are, whether you work, study, take care of the house or everything at once, such a hole can catch everyone, especially if you live in a place where the gray autumn weather with almost everyday rainfall doesn't improve your mood nor humor, doesn't add energy and even implements a rather depressive mood. Then it's not difficult to become a lazy teddy bear, or on the contrary, a ticking bomb to which it's scary to approach because it explodes for no reason. If you feel that you are balancing on the edge of the knife and one step further, and you lose control, it's the time to distance yourself. Find your safety zone, where you will be able to cut yourself off from stress, overload of information (especially those unnecessary) for a moment, calm your mind and stay alone with yourself. This place depends only on you, whether it will be your home, with a warm blanket, hot drink or with a bath full of foam, or you decide to take a short trip somewhere far away (or near), it's important that you feel good. Create your protective bubble somewhere between everyday life and dreams, where you'll be able to cleanse yourself from negative thoughts, emotions and fatigue.
Don't listen to people who say that in life it's not needed to rest and you have to constantly run with the speed of life without a moment of respite. It's not true. Because man is not a robot. Everyone needs a moment of relaxation and oblivion, for their own health.

"You really want it?" "I can't believe" "How can you change something all the time?" "I would be afraid" are words that I hear almost every day. It's commonplace, like bread and butter.
People are surprised that I change something constantly, there is always something new in my life, something disappears, everything ceases to be the same as it was, with me and with places of my residence including. Greece, Poland, tomorrow England, in a few months Paris, maybe Egypt, or even the Arab Emirates or Qatar. Me without changes isn't me, and living in one place... Would be terribly boring.
For many people, my willingness to change literally everything is something like a unicorn strolling freely on the street. They are unable to understand and wonder how you can easily move to the other end of the world, enjoying your new home as a child. And for me? The more that place was unreachable for me before, the more attractive the opportunity is now. Besides, in connection with the work on board the aircraft, being in another country every day unearthly feeds the appetite for more and more. And life is too short to stop it in monotony and not add all the colors of the rainbow. The more varieties, the better and that's all!
So the questions "How can you do that?" or "Aren't you afraid?" are a bit funny, because ... No, I'm not scared. On the contrary, such changes and experiments work on me like a real aphrodisiac. This is the whole sense to get to know, try, experience and develop on various levels, both life and geographic. And to be honest, I don't understand people who are afraid to look beyond the borders of their city, and at the very thought of any changes they shake as if they were naked in the Antarctic. Maybe I have an unusual approach to life and expect something different than most of people, but that's the way it is, I'm fine with it and I'm not going to change anything about it, because what I survive is mine and nobody will take it away from me.

What are travels for you? Entertainment, relaxation or just an interesting way to spend your free time? For a lot of people trips, are just a switch to a "relax mode" and nothing else. It's time to relax and forget about the whole world, that's what.
In contrast, for me, it is much more than leisure, an opportunity to chill out or other trivial things. For me, traveling is a job, it's a way of life and, above all, it's a part of me. Thanks to this I can be really myself, express my true self, the atmosphere in my soul. Unlike most people who drive, fly, or wander around the world to have fun and relax, in my eyes a journey is a synonym of life!
Why? Because I'm following the three principles: if something good happened, travel to celebrate it. If something bad happened, travel to be reborn. If nothing happened - travel to make it happen! Simple, isn't it?
Travels, trips (or rather, in my case, flights), are a medicine and a golden mean for everything. For the celebration, for happiness, for pain, for nothingness - always reliable.
So why to sit at home and waste your life for being in one place when you can fly, explore and spend wonderful moments all around the world? Isn't it better to get a grip and start to really live and breathe the full air from the various nooks of the Blue Planet?

Arabs... Arab culture... Arabic language... Arab customs... Arab countries... Arab life... Arabic world... You must admit, regardless of whether you are the people of the Arab circle, or you come from any other place of the world and from other cultures, that at least once you have met at least one person who is hostile to Arab things, doesn't hide their opposition to this culture and generally, for them would be better if it didn't exist at all.
Unfortunately, the sad truth is that despite the fact that we live in the 21st century, many people living in a huge, rich, well-developed and (as it might seem) highly educated countries still show a high level of intolerance, prejudice, racism and xenophobia. In what a highly civilized, today's world.
Aversion, surly behavior, often unpleasant comments... It all hurts and is sad, and many people seem not to notice it, as if they forgot that Arab is also a man, has feelings and deserves the same respect as all other nationalities. Arab origin doesn't mean someone is worse, bad or even a terrorist. We don't live in the Medieval, so it would be good to finally learn tolerance and respect for other people, regardless of their country of origin, religion, name or culture. And before you insult again, think about how you would feel if someone harassed you for your origin...

Personally, many times I have already been asked how it is that I don't have any prejudices, that I am not afraid, I don't avoid any conversations and I'm open to making contacts with different nationalities and cultural groups. Then I always answer that for me human is a human. Not a flag, not a currency, not a label. It's simply a man who deserves respect, understanding and has the right to be treated equally with everyone. I don't segregate people according to their religion, place of birth, social status or skin color. For me, everyone is equal and I don't look down on anyone. And every time when, because of my interest in Arabic culture, countries, language or Islam, people call me an Arab Princess, I treat it with a pinch of salt and make it a joke to chill out the atmosphere. And really, I recommend to everyone a little more distance, tolerance and openness to the world, and life will soon be easier and much more enjoyable.
