LET'S TALK ABOUT HYMENS!!

LET'S TALK ABOUT HYMENS!! (taboo, taboo...not really if you are not living in the 1500s)

So last night I was watching an episode of Crime Patrol. In this particular episode they showed how a seventeen-year old girl was forced into marriage falsely and then within one month she was divorced. The reason? Her husband allegedly thought that she was in relationship with other guys.

How did he know? He just knew because guys have this supernatural power to tell if a girl is virgin or not... aka via her broken hymen.

Yes, even if we are living in the modern ages, most people, including a vast majority of girls are still ignorant about modern medical practices. One of these controversial topics is hymen, the thin membrane inside the vagina of a girl/woman which supposedly is used to determine if she is a virgin or not. It is thought to bleed when broken.

Long story short, we girls are expected to bleed when we do that "another-taboo-secret-thingy" with our husbands after marriage. And if we don't, then, we are the worst things in the whole of universe. Believe me or not, this attitude is still strongly prevalent in various parts of the world, and sad but true in majority of Muslim communities.

Together Forever Part Three

So I was rummaging through my old journal to find stuff for my website and guess what! I found another song on the Together Forever theme. Here it is, guys! I have lost count of how many songs I have written on this topic. By the way, I must let you know that these songs are written even before I actually fell in love. Smiles!

Together Forever Part Three

On the wings of white doves,

Above the clouds in the blue sky,

We'll let our golden love fly high.

In the aquamarine rivers,

Where the silver minnows swim.

We'll let ourselves float in dream.

You don't know what I plan for you.

I'll tell you that I love you.

In the garden full of flowers,

We'll smell the scent.

We'll both count the time

Together we spent.

You don't know what I plan for you.

I'll tell you that I love you.

Mother Earth

Here is a poem I wrote for our school magazine once.

Mother Earth

Take a look at the beautiful sky

And the wind that blow;

See all the gratitude and gratefulness

To the Almighty they show.

Take a look at the trees and

The birds that fly high,

Up in the beautiful Mother Earth's

Blue and wide sky.

Take a look at the deep blue ocean

And small narrow rivers,

From where riches as gold and silver

Is brought by the rivers.

Hear the sweet singing of birds;

Cheerfulness of the deer.

Refreshes one's mind and

Try their best to cheer.

Best friend

Best friends are one of the most important part behind one's emotional growth. Everyone needs one. No one can be a loner. Everyone has a best friend, be it in the form of a mother; a father; a literal friend or even a spouse...but everyone has one. We only need to identify them and share our mutual feelings. On basis of that principle, let's enjoy the song below. Smiles!

Best Friend

Whenever I feel sad and sit alone,

I always find you by my side.

Whenever I am happy and filled with ecstasy,

I always see you smiling at me.

With you I can share my secrets.

In you, I can keep my trust.

You're the one who keeps me smiling always...

You're my best friend,

You're my true friend.

A friend who'll never leave me alone.

Whenever I feel lost, I come to you.

You try your best to solve it.

Whenever I'm nervous, you come along.

You encourage me to win my fears.

With you I can spend hours.

In you I can see my soul.

You're the one who consoles me always...

You're my best friend,

You're my true friend.

A friend who'll never leave me alone.

I will repay you as much as I can.
I will smile at you and console you.
I will encourage you and make you happy.
Just promise me, you will never leave me alone.

Chinese Girl

Modern Talking used to be my favorite duo from a very early time. They made a song about some Chinese girl, which was the inspiration behind this song. Smiles!

Chinese Girl

When I met you in China, 

Your eyes pierced my heart.

When I met you in China,

Your sweet smile won my mind.

Your beauty touched me.

Your feeling soothed me.

I just wanna meet you again.

My Chinese girl...

You're my Chinese girl...

My Chinese girl...

You're my sweet Chinese  girl...

When I met you in China,

Your hands touched me.

When I met you in China,

Your hair brushed my face.

My heart beat fast.

Your lips stayed to last.

I just wanna meet you again.

My Chinese girl...

You're my Chinese girl...

My Chinese girl...

You're my sweet Chinese  girl...

Good morning

I guess we had enough of the love songs. Time for something new. Enjoy!

Good Morning

Wake up, wake up, and get ready to start the day.

Look to your right and left. See what, please,say!

Look with your mind's eyes,

You'll see the planet as cold as ice,

With no warmth for anyone,

Just frozen heart for everyone.

So open up your heart and eyes!

And we can say to you...

Good morning, rise and shine.

The day is coming, the night is leaving!

Good morning, rise and shine.

The good are rising, the bad are leaving...yeah!

See what, say what, look all around you.

There's only black, with no red or blue.

Our earth's turning to dust. 

The planet is sucking out all the rust.

With no green for anyone

Just dead brown for everyone.

So open up your heart and eyes!

And we can say to you...

Good morning, rise and shine.

The day is coming, the night is leaving!

Good morning, rise and shine.

The good are rising, the bad are leaving...yeah!

What will happen to Mother Earth?

Don't just think and sit by the hearth.

Look at the hunger, look at the thirst.

Do something for it at first.

Not brilliant? I know. But, I hope you got the message. Let's do something for our Mother Earth and make the world a better place. Love!
