It’s the first time I write a “blog of the day” post, but seriously guys, for the first time I get surprised, delighted, and amused by a blog of a young girl. There are so many young girls bloggers out there, and they’re really good, but this blog took my attention today.

I know I am not a regular blogs reader anymore, but lately I’ve been reading left and right, randomly, whatever I stumble upon, specially if the post is short. I found some pattern in the blogs, a boring pattern to be honest. So I stopped. Then I went back to the blogs I used to read few years back, such as Qwaider, Ola, Rasha, Moey, Sou, and they are as exciting as they used to be. But Shaden’s blog (The Sugar Cubes) was the one that made my day.

Her writing style has matured big time. Not that it wasn’t good, it was very good, but now it’s becoming influential, brief, and profoundly powerful. Something I really missed.

Perhaps I am just sick of the hypocrisy in the middle east, and I can’t stand one more hypocrite post, kissing the ass of one government (for whatever reason), or cheerleading for one not-so-sexy blogger. Seriously guys, we’ve had it.

And I didn’t change my mind, for those who knew me long enough, they know that I firmly believe that the most depraved of all aren’t the simple ones who go with the flow, no I actually pitty those, and I can go as far as considering them my brothers. I can also skip the fact that they can be harmful, because they do it unintentionally. I’d like to quote Plato on this:

“As empty vessels make the loudest sound, so they that have the least wit are the greatest blabbers “

and dear Lord, how many empty vessels do we have!!

I can go on and make execuses for those, but at certain point we need to shut them up.

Now going back to the most depraved of all, in my very humble opinion, I think the most depraved of all are those who know they support the devil, and they do it intentionally. They know themselves, and they have their own agenda. We all know it. They know it.

Sometimes they belong to a certain family, and that family is known for its support to a certain party, and money talks here.

Others belong to a certain group, with certain beliefs. Be it religous, political, or whatever. Those will just do about anything to support their party. Even when they know they’re wrong, they will do it malicously, continuously, and they can write infleuntial articles. Those I have no mercy for.

I quit writing for a while now, for so many reasons. It’s not that I don’t have time (my regular lame execse). I have all the time in the world, actually I have time to read those thousands of pages books, and I finish them in 3 days sometimes. Along with that, I pass sophisticated exams, and work for 14 - 16 hours sometimes. So yes, I am the king of my own time, I always have time.

There are so many reasons why I don’t write any more, some of which are too personal to share, and some aren’t that important. All in all, I won’t share why I do not write. It’s not important at all. Whatever.

I know I post “things” sometimes, but this is not writing. This is not what I do. One song, picture, or one quote isn’t quite me.

My writing style is not organized anymore, this post was supposed to be about The Sugar Cubes, and I just made it about me.

The sugar cubes is a blog worth reading, an honest intellecual is the least to say.
