Goodbye 2021

Whether the day is going well or not, when you lay your head on the pillow in the evening, bittersweet memories of the day fly through your tired mind.

There would be a moment, you get stuck on one of these details, you dive into it, and you drown. Lots of other details similar to this call you to themselves too. You immediately run to them and manipulate one after another. You turn left and right in your bed.

Somewhere far away, vague sparks of hope wait for breath, to froth. If you inhale them deeply, the fire of peace will warm every particle of your body. You fall into a sweet sleep. You wake up fresh and calm to the new day in the morning. You are better than yesterday. Tomorrow will be even better…

Our world revolves around itself; it becomes day, becomes night. Revolves around the sun; it becomes spring, summer, and winter. It becomes the year with its breeze, storm, cold, and warmth.

O nizami! You turn around yourself; then you become the evolution, the maturity, the gratitude. You revolve around the world; then, you become the experiencing, the learning, and the evolving. Sometimes, you become the pain, the regret, the guilt, the anger… Who knows, you become the understanding and the forgiving? Every moment makes a new you.

Which ones rotate and flow, the world and the time or you?!  You are surprised!

How beautiful was the success, the joy, the happiness! How excellent was it to breathe, love, live… Hey beauties, come with me, stand by me always, and add new ones to yourselves… Goodbye, old pains, anxieties, guilts, regrets, anger… Stay where you are. O past! It does not matter how you taught me; thank you very much for everything.

O nizami! Let the calm and lively morning refreshment surround you as you reach out to the new year after the tiring days of this December. Bid farewell to the old year with gratitude, and welcome the new year with happiness, health, new hopes.

Let's raise the anchor
from the port of despair
Let's set sail
to loving hearts
from the ocean of magnificence

Goodbye 2021, hello 2022…

Meditation - Mindfulness Breath

Finally, I found meditation as a way to get rid of overthinking obsessions and similar annoyances. I also recommend it to those who are dealing with such problems. I was born in 1961. My student and professional life coincided with the turbulent times of my country, Turkey. It had been difficult for me to maintain my psychological balance among people who blindly believe stereotypical norms of their groups instead of general morality and ethics. Working without entering the magnetic range of any group brought about interpersonal conflicts. There were many times when I was overwhelmed and looked for a peaceful corner to escape. Finally, I retired in 2002 without severe loss. When I look back, I see many successful projects together with interpersonal conflicts. As I stepped into my pleasant corner and dreamed of a peaceful life, the troubles and memories I had in the past started to disturb me. I once reflected my mood in my diary like this: "Because of the

When I was a mechanic apprentice

When I was 13-15 years old in the 1970s, I worked as an apprentice of a radio repairman during the summer holidays. I gained a lot there at a young age in understanding life and people. The experiences I have gained, on the one hand, protected me from the worst of life; on the other hand, it led to my personal development. When the customer brought his broken radio for repair, he would assume that he knew the solution as if he had diagnosed the fault. They would say, "It works, but it doesn't make a sound! The wire is broken; there is a soldering job!" When we came across such explanations, we wouldn't have questioned why they hadn't fix it themselves since they knew the fault. If we told them to show us the broken cable, they couldn't show it.  I was used to these kinds of diagnoses and treatments since I often heard about them. I didn't use to listen to them much. In such cases, taking in my hand the screwdriver, the side cutter, the avom

Hello World!

English has become an international language. The name sign at the path entrance, which will convey our hello to the world, says "English." I decided to enter and walk along this road. I have an introverted personality. Maybe, therefore I like to play with my thoughts and put them on paper from time to time. For enjoying reading, I have been learning about many subjects throughout my life. Also, it can be said that I have experienced the good and the bad aspects of life, for I am 60 now. When people blend information with experiences, they have a lot to write. Especially if it is possible to publish your posts on a blog, you want to write more. My interests focus on personal development, psychology, educational sciences, spiritualism, and philosophy. I can easily read and understand English books and various publications in my interest fields. But my English writing skills require improvement. I opened this blog to share my feelings, thoughts, knowledge, and exp
