ـ "... إن فى الإنسان منطقة عجيبة سحيقة لا تصل إليها الفضيلة ولا الرذيلة ، ولا تشع فيها شمس العقل والإرادة ، ولا ينطق لسان المنطق ، ولا تطاع القوانين والأوضاع ، ولا تتداول فيها لغة أو تستخدم كلمة ... إنما هى مملكة نائية عن عالم الألفاظ والمعاني ... كل مافيها شفاف هفاف يأتي بالأعاجيب فى طرفة عين ... يكفي أن ترن فى أرجائها نبرة ، أو تبرق لمحة ، أو ينشر شذا عطر ، حتى يتصاعد من أعماقها فى لحظة من الإحساسات والصور والذكريات ، ما يهز كياننا ويفتح نفوسنا على أشياء لا قبل لنا بوصفها ، ولا بتجسيدها ، ولو لجأ إلى أدق العبارات و أبرع اللغات ...

توفيق الحكيم

Within man lies a deep wondrous spot, to which neither virtue nor vice can reach. Upon which the sun of reason and will never rise. In which the mouth of logic never speaks, the laws and rules are never obeyed, and not a language is used nor a word is ever spoken.
It is a distant Kingdom, beyond words and meanings. With everything is a sheer murmur offering wonders in a blink. From the depths of which, suffice a single tone or a flash of mind or a scent of a perfum, to allow rise of emotions, pictures and memories, a rising that will shake our being and open ourselves to things we can neither describe nor materialize even if we used the most refined of phrases or the most skillful of languages.

Tawfiq Al-Hakim.

MY Color Scheme

For a while i've been thinking of changing this blog's template. I thought that over 16 months in the previous dark blue with colorful dots as a background pattern was more than enough for me; yet every time i checked for other templates, i end up liking the existing one more than any other color scheme. Even when i was totally upset, i disliked black templates, and when i was really happy i never really considered rose or fully bright colored templates too. So , color psychology came into my mind, why do i always return to square number 1, the same old template !!!!? May be this is the answer ..... !!

Blue : Blue is described as a favorite color by many people and is the color most preferred by men. Blue calls to mind feelings of calmness or serenity. It is often described as peaceful, tranquil, secure, and orderly.
It can also create feelings of sadness or aloofness.We usually associate the color blue with the night and thus we feel relaxed and calmed. Lighter blues make us feel quite and away from the rush of the day. These colors can be useful in eliminating insomnia. Blue can also lower the pulse rate and body temperature. Like yellow, blue inspires mental control, clarity and creativity. However, too much dark blue can be depressing.

And I had 2 Blues , bright azure blue and dark blue

Orange : Orange is a combination of yellow and red and is considered an energetic color. It calls to mind feelings of excitement, enthusiasm, and warmth. Orange has shown to have only positive affects on your emotional state. It is often used to draw attention, such as in traffic signs and advertising.This color relieves feelings of self-pity, lack of self-worth and unwillingness to forgive. Orange opens your emotions and is a terrific antidepressant.

And I had a a kind of pinkish orange

Green : Green creates feelings of comfort, laziness, relaxation, calmness.Grean also represents tranquility, good luck, health, and jealousy. It helps us balance and soothe our emotions and is often used in decorating for its calming effect. Some attribute this to its connection with nature and our natural feelings of affiliation with the natural world when experiencing the color green.Green is thought to relieve stress and help heal. Yet, darker and grayer greens can have the opposite effect. These olive green colors remind us of decay and death and can actually have a detrimental effect on physical and emotional health. Note that sickened cartoon characters always turned green.

And I had one cool lime green


I only chose this new template for the tranquillity of the header picture :) ................ for a while.
