A Thousand Farewells

by Nahlah Ayed 

A national bestseller with a new epilogue

  Even though this book was and will always be special for me, I took a very long time to finish reading it (you can see it on Goodreads).  That was for two main reasons. 

  First of all, the book was a gift from a Canadian friend with whom I spent my four months visit there in Canada. So, whenever I pick up this book, I remember her, her little house, our walks, and her long talks about the Middle East situation. She never judges us (Arabs and Muslims). she respects me and my traditions and culture so much. I really liked her. Especially when she starts analyzing my personality and suggesting some solutions and habits to move out of my dark spot I was in by that time. She keeps saying I am exactly like her young daughter (she is as old as me). 

Cleanliness

  It breaks my heart to see people still think that life is all about money. What was the first dictate to our prophet in order to make a huge change? Was it about working and gaining money? No, It was simple about Reading and learning, because it is the best way to change ourselves then our lives. 

  Yet, our people still don't see it a necessity to have clean water at home every day, clean toilet at work, clean streets ... In order to clean our environment we need to clean our minds (by reading and learning), then step by step we will get a clean society, a clean government, a clean country. 

  So, I guess cleanliness is somehow more important than money at this stage..... Just a ‪#‎Point_of_view‬

Forgiveness: A philosophical exploration

By Charles L. Griswold Jr.

It was a very good book. I liked the simple way the author explains his ideas even though I am not a philosopher. 
He addressed the subject of forgiveness (from two dimensions: interpersonal and political) in a very organized manner. Issues and conclusions are discussed fairly and completely. 
Well, I do recommend it to whoever loves philosophy, or who is studying forgiveness and moral concepts in any field. 

Enjoy :)
