Ramadan for me

Patric : What do you think about Ramadan ?
Me : For me Ramadan it's time to reflect .
Patric : Well and what do you do in this month ?
Me : We don't eat all day and at night when the moon it's high we can eat  .
Patric : It's hard for you to do this or not ?
Me : Isn't very hard but it's difficult because I can't eat or drink  .
Patric : What do you love about Ramdan ?
Me : I love ambient because is difficult for other people eat toghether and they are happy to do this .

hi every body
Money is important in us anyway. We are working so hard for to receive salary to have money.I’ve been hearing people saying.“It’s so hard to earn money!”or “I need to work overtime.”. So I asked my friends this question:Why Money is Important? Everything in modern society is based on money.As The saying goes, money makes the world go around.Many young people marry for money rather than love
Money is not the most important thing in life. Yes, you need money for everything, but without love money has no value. Without love no one would be wealthy or prosperous or have a job. Without the love of God we are nothing. God is the most important thing in life. We need God who supplies all of our needs in order to survive and breath and make it in this cruel old world.

Thank you Haythem and Saba for the latest posts!

Haythem:Thanks for the interesting information and photos about Ramadan;now I know much more about Ramadan! It seems to me that's it a very family orientated event with lots of reflection and helping the less fortunate.

Saba and Smiley 2!: Thanks for your opinions on the topic on whether money can make you happy.

Have a good weekend everybody!

As we know all it's Ramadan, by this occasion I will give you an idea about this special month :)

Well, Ramadan is a special month of the year for over one billion Muslims throughout the world. It's the third pillar of islam . A period of time when muslims are facing a new challenge which is fasting during the daylight hours . Ramadan is a time for inner reflection, devotion to God, and self-control .


 As a secondary goal, fasting is a way of experiencing hunger and thirst, thinking about those in the world who have little to eat every day and appreciation for all of God's bounties. Fasting is also beneficial to the health and provides a break in the cycle of rigid habits . Ramadan is also a time of giving charity, reading of the Qur'an,  purifying one's behaviour, and doing good deeds. Muslims develop feelings of generosity and good-will toward others. The Prophet Muhammad  once said, "A man's wealth is never diminished by charity." 




 Since Ramadan is a special time, Muslims in many parts of the world prepare certain favourite foods during this month. :D

Hi everybody !
So this is my second post . It answers to this question " Can money make you happy ? "

Well !
We all know that money is an important thing in our lifes and especially nowadays . It makes our lifes easier and more comfortable , so you are no longer  moneyless , poor or needy , you can buy all of the things that you never had , but not happiness .
Unfortunately , so money people think that money can make them happy and all they need in this life is MONEY but  I really don't agree with them .
I deeply believe that with money we can buy a lot of things " a car , a house , an Iphone .." but not everything . Money can't buy our happiness , can't buy love and can't buy true friends . Money is really not a priority in our lifes .

I hope you'll enjoy reading my new post ! Goodbye ! :)

Hello,  I'm smiley as you call me I'm 17 years old I'm a student in Carthage Byrsa' s high school. Also I'm a Salsa teacher for 2 years I do it for fun. And for my job I would like to become a university professor for different reasons. First, I feel I have a real vocation for teaching young people . Secondly I`d like to take up my father`s job. Beside, it`s a humanitarian and important job that would allow me to enlighten student`s mind, expend their knowledge and guide them through life. In addition, I can do research and participate in the progress of teaching and learning. Moreover, this job enables me to earn a high salary and so live a comfortable life.
