A Mixed feeling... Leaving Clique College

Today would be my last day officially reporting to Clique College and I thought I will express my feeling through my blog

Dear Directors,

Your confidence and trust in my abilities and genuine concern for my professional growth make this decision especially difficult. I will be forever grateful for the invaluable expertise I acquired while under your guidance. Also, the friendships I have developed here have helped make my years with the company successful and productive. My co-workers have been among the finest people I have ever known.

Dear Colleagues,

It is sad for me to say that this is my last day in Clique College as a fulltime staff. I am leaving this organization where I made so many friends for life and got handful of lessions on professionalism. Working with some of the finest and most talented people in the industry I have learned many new things which have helped me enrich my knowledge in going ahead in my career.

While leaving from here, my mind has been flooded with mixed feelings. I am happy about joining a new venture for career progression, but at the same time, it's saddening to leave this happy work environment and you guys.

Business will continue as usual, but you will no longer be required to laugh at my jokes. I will greatly miss each and every one of you and the fun we had.

As for now, I can only hope that things would be same at my new workplace, and I will be able to enjoy every moment I spend there as I have been doing here. 

My life has been greatly enriched by the kindness and encouragement so many of you have shown to me. I will always be grateful for the many friends I have made along the way and the wonderful memories I take with me.

I would like to take this opportunity to let you know that working with you people was one of the most interesting phases of my life. Thank you for making my tenure at Clique College, so wonderful. I know that the support and timely guidance I got from you people would indeed help me to deal with the new challenges that come my way as I start a new phase of my career

Thanks once again for everything. I wish you guys’ all the luck in your future endeavors and I promise I will be in touch with you all.

2 years at Clique

It was after the completion of CIMA, I was looking for a job on August 2010. I applied to few places and was unfortunate that I had no previous experience in a senior position or I didn’t have the certificate or maybe I had the wrong qualification as some seems not to know what it is.

Clique College Graduation 2012

I found out that many people prefer expatriates to work in the Accounting department especially as Accountants and senior even with the same experience with Maldivians. In the end they end up paying more than what they will have to pay for the Maldivians. I am sure there has to be reasons for this. It is a happy note that thought the situation is like that it is changing fast with number of Maldivians getting qualified in the field.

From my brother I got the opportunity to apply for a post of Business Development Manager at Clique College. I sent the CV and was called for an interview. I was interviewed by the Managing Director of Clique College and that was the start.

Endorsing what you really are…

We see that our advertising trend has got tremendous changes and most of it is positive ones. These changes have brought us positive and negative impact on our (customer) life. I don’t know whether most of us aware of these or we are just too lazy to look deeply into it. I am not going to highlight on those impacts but being honest in what you really endorse.

Shampoo..

If we tune into a TV channel and wait for their commercial break you would see a lot of Shampoo being advertised on it. All this shampoo has been endorsed by different models mostly celebrities that follow a big fan base. Every company wants to hire them to endorse their product because of the fan base. The question we should ask our self is that are they really endorsing what they really use. Is it necessary for them to use what they endorse? In my view point, not necessarily but if they have some ethical values they would so. If I take my favorite actress Katrina who is endorsing “Pentene Shampoo” I would love to use that shampoo because she is endorsing it. I would not be sure whether it is the right product for me or not. How many of us will be there who just follow who ever our favorite is no matter what impacts it has on us.

Mobile networks…

We see celebrities endorsing different mobile networks. I have seen some of the celebrities/ models using a different network than what they actually use. Is this ethical? is this something we just do it for money? Celebrities are the people who many people take as a role model and the fans would want to use whatever they use and say whatever they say.

Learning Expedition Colombo 2011...

A study tour was arranged by Clique College with Student Association WITS and was dubbed as "Learning Expedition Colombo 2011" to Sri Lanka from 22nd March to 26th March 2011.

Students before departure

I have not being in a study tour before. I was not very familiar with it. This is one reason I was very keen in working in the project. Everything that has been done was new to me. I was all the day busy making arrangements for the tour. Students were expecting a lot from the tour. No one has been in a study and is excited how it would be. I hear from students that they feel it would be boring. 

There were 14 students who confirmed and paid to go for the tour. All the arrangements were done except for the visits that we have to make. I met with the students to inform that what they have to do prior to the departure and assured them that it would be enjoyable. Rules were made and instructions were given. President of Clique College met with the students to inform them the purpose of the trip and what they have to gain from the trip.

Everything was so packed, and works left to do. I was busy with visit arrangements while president helped me to get the necessary documents for the tour. Students were trying their best to do the presentation. I am happy here to note that I saw 14 enthusiastic students and I was glad they wanted to be a part of it.

A New Year..... 2011

It’s a new year… everyone is celebrating it. People do have plans for the New Year. People are having different resolutions. Some are really weird and some are really fantastic. But the first question is whether it is important to have a resolution for each new year or not? The other question is whether the resolutions and plans we have… are we really acting according to it or not?

I never have plans for New Year. Whether it is a new year or new month whenever I have to plan I plan. I don’t have special occasions for that. Many friends have asked for my plans and I give different answers for that..It’s because I really don’t have one…

But I do have a plan for this year 2011… It might look odd but I really want to get married this year winning a cute girls heart, which could be a tough task to do. I do have some other material plans like building a house in my sister’s land, buying a motor bike, living alone; start lecturing for a professional course.

I am sure you all would have some plans and hope those plans come into reality the way you have planned it.

Wish you all a VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR… May Allah bless you!!

Help Musthaq Campaign

I got a chance to work in the team of “Help Musthaq campaign”. This campaign is to help Musthaq to help him for the transplantation. Mr. Abdull Musthaq is a hardworking dynamic young leader, who has dedicated most of his time in developing children, youth and community groups in the Maldives. Mr. Abdulla Musthaq’s profession as a teacher and a counsellor since early 1998 have contributed in academic studies and vocational training programs enhancing their livelihood, leadership and self development.

Unfortunately today Mr. Abdulla Musthaq is suffering from end stage (stage 5) in rental disease (Kidney failure). Doctors have confirmed that his both kidneys have failed to function effectively. Currently Mr. Abdulla Musthaq requires regular dialysis three times a week.

Being unemployed......

I came here after my studies on June 3rd 2010. I stared searching for a job on 23rd June. I applied for about 7 places and only three places called for an interview. One of them rather than interviewing asked mostly about the professional qualification I had. They never called after that. The other one said they will call but never got back. The other place they offered a job for a very less salary and I rejected that offer.

It is very boring to be unemployed. Have nothing to do. Sitting Idle has never been my way. Couldn’t get a part time job too as they don’t employ qualified for their jobs and the potential places does not have vacant jobs too.

ThE ImAgE.................

Even if you pass this world,
You are the image in my heart,
You are the only image,
Which won’t go from my heart,
Your memories, while renewing...
Will last forever...in my heart

Am left alone in this world
Now I can’t forget your love
I have become weak and sick
Then the bitter tear comes out

There is no end for this pain and soreness
No eye is there to see my helpless situation
No one is there who can help, except you
And I don’t want to give my heart to any other one than you, my dear
My heart always want to see your image only
Cant tolerate when the shadow of unluckiness falls on me

I don’t mind even if the body and spirit apart
Even when am decomposed, I will love you
I will keep your lovely picture in my heart
There is no way, your memories will wipe out from my heart
Even if the heart beat stops, there is no end to this love
This is such a true love, it won’t ever fade

My heart is filled with such sweet hopes
That I want to live with you
But I won’t be able to get that luckiness in this world
I can’t change what is written in my fate
My heart hopes to meet you in Aakhirath
Mt heart says that, I will get your love in heaven

sweet pain.........................

A translated story...

I went out to buy a water bottle. It was at about 5 in the evening. That’s the time when Minha crossed before me. She didn’t even raise her gaze. She just went where ever she was going. I didn’t look at her until her …….. I didn’t freeze. My heart beat wasn’t even faster. I didn’t felt cold on my hands and legs. People say that when we see the one we love we will know it. Brain will send signals to entire body. But nothing such happened to me. When I saw Minha first she was a simple girl. There was no tension. The time she was crossing my home, I came out. That’s all.

One day I went to villingili with one of my friend. When I got down from ferry dhoni and was walking towards inside the island, I was Minha coming towards ferry terminal. She was busy talking with some of her friend. She didn’t see me. I didn’t even look back at her. That’s all.

When I went to a funeral to one of mom’s friends place, I saw her again. That day I thought, she is the one I saw last two days. As we were strangers there is nothing to remember about each other. That time we both smiled at each other. That’s all
When I went to farewell one of my friend to Airport I saw her in the ferry again. At that time I thought… this is a girl a meet very often... Now I know that there are people who we will meet over and again. Even though I thought she was simple, there should be a reason or things that make me recognize her… You won’t love without a reason. What’s the meaning of that?? Without a signal from Minha, have I fallen for her? Will that also happen?? Love will start from one side, expressing it or not… accepting it or not is a different story.

When I was alone I started remembering her without any reason. If I tell the truth I have seen much beautiful girls than her. What I knew was that we don’t fall only for queens. The queen who rules the heart will be different for different people. The reason why she became so beautiful might not be able to tell even for you. But you can’t forget her.

With some excuse I started talking her. First it was just a casual talk. When we get closer and closer I found lot of qualities that I was looking for. I got a happy feeling as like I was talking to my girlfriend. Now I started missing her every time. Whenever am happy or sad, she was the first person to tell. Even if she doesn’t do the same thing, without a control I started falling for her.

“Do you have a boy friend” I asked. She didn’t answer to that question. One reason might be she had a boy friend and she didn’t want to hurt me saying that. The other reason would be she was single and she didn’t want to go out with me. May be she loved me more than her boy friend and she didn’t know what to do, might also be a reason. The last reason could be that she loved me and didn’t want to tell that.
As she was looking with a smile, I too smiled at her. I repeated the question and couldn’t get the answer. “Do you love me” I asked. With a blush she started laughing. But didn’t give any answer. I was happy that she didn’t say NO. I was even sad because she didn’t say yes. “I will find the answer” I told her.

She didn’t say that she love me. That wasn’t the problem. But if she doesn’t love me, why wouldn’t she say that? My hope didn’t go in vain because she didn’t say no and that was the reason my heart wanted to wait for her. It was the reason which forced my eyes to see some dreams. We were talking whilst we didn’t know what to name our relationship. Sometimes I feel like Minha is a very close friend. But sometimes she does things that make me feel she was my lover.

On Valentine’s Day she sent me a flower. On my b’day she sent me a key tag which has a heart in it. You can take any meaning out of it. Sometimes before doing something she let me know it. Not like asking for permission but rather like just informing. You can take any meaning. But I loved her and she knows it very well. She accepts whatever I sent to her. That doesn’t have to be that she was accepting my love. But my love for her was getting stronger and stronger. I was thinking that there won’t be a happier person than me. One year passed like that.

It was her 20th b’day. Her parents threw a party for her. I was invited for the party. That was where I met Minha’s boy friend. His name was Ahmed. “Here is the one you were looking for. My sweetheart.” She said. What would I say?? I got really sad. I thought with anger I would leave the party. I can do all that. But I don’t have the right to complain. I can’t say that she was a cheater or deceiver as she has never ever mentioned that she loves me. I just smiled and waited there. Only one question came to my mind. What kind of a thing is not to tell me that she didn’t love me? I will never know why she did that to me. I saw love from her side. May be I wrongly interpreted some of her behaviors or some of her actions. But I can only tell my feelings and my misinterpretations.

This is one side of the story. The other part is in her heart. In the same way I have only half of my heart in my body. The other half is in her body. It has been so many days since my heart isn’t beating properly. That is also something which you feel a sweet pain. It was my eyes and heart that betrayed me.

what people say............

It is very nice to know how people feel about you. I thought my blog would be rich enough if I can write something like this. So I sent a message to my entire contact list on face book and msn. It is nice to see that people reply by sending me whatever they feel. As we all know it would be very difficult to express what we feel for others, but still I appreciate for their reply…

I was surprised by few replies, because I didn’t know I was like that. From the all replies I got, I had a few things that I need to make correct myself. That was the important part, may be one of the best part in going ahead with an idea like this.

Unfortunately... in this writing I won’t be able to bring you from my family side as most of them are not on msn or face book. Most of my close friends are also out of reach in this context… but I will try to bring some of them and as well as students, classmates, friends and others too. Here I just write what exactly they say about me… with the same wordings..

Let’s start it from what my best friend says… He has been with me since childhood… in our group, team, club and every step of my life… he says that “well, I don’t think I can write all of it in my mind about you. But’ll try my best.... Hmmmm...Since my childhood u were there with me, sharing each and everything. And also u cared me as a brother although u r a close relative. Same way I shared and cared u, I guess... Ever since u r my closest friend, u helped me in almost everything, u advised me on every step of my life, u enjoyed with all my joys, u felt sorry for every misfortune in my life. So in short u r a good friend which is hard to find as diamonds. u r a funny buddy and a good adviser who cares his friends a lot. So u r THE BEST... and thnks for being such a friend and a brother. tc “…. Yea he was right… he did the same thing… am too glad to have a best friend like him.

One of my close relatives wife…. So my sister -in- law says “u are a person with gud heart, friendly & nice brohter to me ... u are cool man ... God bless u . .. Wish always happiness eagy .. tc “ These are the two people I could bring from that category.

The school days are some of the few days in our life that it would be difficult to forget as they are very beautiful days in your life… My class mates … they say “You are the best jadu jadu I have ever had....thankz buddy “ hehe.. that’s a name they call me because they got to know from me that it is a name called for a short eat in Maldives. Cool huh!!.

And “u r sweet n funny n wonderful n carin n creative friend i know ;) “. And another class mate said “u r decent ,smart n intelligent..wat else z dare den igu, u r still d same sinc i met u , cute frnd,i guess most f ppl who u knw, liks u alot, may b dts coz f d way u treat dem..n i luvu dnt tak it -ve, nt luv luv as a frnd, n last, 1day znt enugh 2 old enugh 2 b elder dan me,,,heheheh bi imsure ull get nice responses..... n 1 more thing, i like ur old hair style,curly wide hair ,,,,lol....”

There were three very close buddies in our class whom with I studied a lot together... and one of them says " well, u r the jud jud dho..just kiddin. ure very open minded person, open minded in instances where you should be, and conservative in where u should be conservative...very caring and always care about friends...and one thing i like about you is that you have a very good sense of humor even though you are a bit sarcastic sometimes.."

Since I came to Srilanka, friends here are some people who make my life worth here… I thank each and every one of them for their great support and the friendship they share with me… One of them… a girl who is like a sister to me quote “well i think ur one of the really cool guys i've met.its coz u respect people nd in turn u deserve the v.best in life.well ive known u 4 a year now.nd i think u really care abt ur friends i still remember u callin me up just 2 chk whetr evryting is allryt.u r one of dose people who try 2 make others lives comfortable.nd dats v.sweet.
yea ur sense of humour is missed by me in class.making silly comments nd making us laugh 4 no reason @ tyms.nd dats y u always try 2 occupy d bak seat nw i understnd. i relly wntd 2 have u around us nd it was sad 2 nt have u in my class bt im sure ull do well in studies there's no doubt.bt @ least ur in SL nd not gna stay in maldives so i cud c u my frend once in a way:)
i truly admire ur sense of honesty nd humility.nd im glad ur writn dis blog 2 improve ur skills.i shud strt One 2.It shows ur driven 2 succeed.nd hey ur English is good my brother,bt we always have plenty of room 2 improve.so keep it up. You confess mistakes easily.which is a true sign of nobility. Just write in ur blog my friends think im d best coz i say so.God Bless u “

A boy from the same class and is like a bro to me replied saying “....the bubbly Maldivian around Mercury...lol...Got to meet this wonderful brother in the MADM class which was my 1st class in Colombo.......At first sight I couldn't figure out what sort of a person he was, but found out that he was kinda popular around, with lots of people around him, making fun in the class and having a nice time. I was kinda alien to him at the beginning, so we didn’t have a chat 4 d 1st 2 days or so, but knew dat we come 2 d same class.
One good old evening after class, when the busses were crowded, when the roads were jammed, consequently both of us got into d same bus. This was where we spoke 4 d 1st time and wasn't it a memorable conversation. I was very shocked bout the openness of this guy. He told me almost everything about him. Hats off to u bro.... From that day onwards, this Maldivian bro has been one of those memorable people in my lives.
The way he thinks, the way he speaks, the way he moves around, everything has friendship embedded within it. I'm really greatful to go for giving me a friend ike u. He's been so supportive at times and I have heard and seen this guy heling out a lot of people around him, specially his other friends with their both personal and academic lives.
Really proud to have u as my friend brother. and Thanx a lot for all wat uv done to me all these days. Hope and pray that u succeed in all ur endeavors in the future.”

Another friend who I met in strategic class feels that am 1 bubbly character she have seen. And a guy who is very close has to say that “As long as i know you have been one of the best Maldivian guys whom i have met. But you tend to show moods to people at times... i suggest you to keep smiling at everyone and all the time (merit).” Thanx buddy letting me know it… hopefully you won’t see it again :D. His other half and one of the sweetest girl I met in SL and one of the closest buddy says "da nicest guy iv evr met after ....!!!!!! seriously.. sm1 who wont judge people but take them as they are.ur kind gentel perfect in evryway. "

My closest buddy in foundation and still a very close friend who treats me like a brother says "Hmmm...u hav a very friendly charactr......rarely gets angry......alwayz tryn to keep othr ppl hapy.....quite mature enough.......willin to help friends in al possible instances.........every bdy lyks to hangout wit u coz of easy movin charactr................. "

Some other friends from SL says….” Im siriusly think that u r a nice frnd ALWZ. u cn live n associate any1. I js rly dnt no abt u vry wel. Bt my opinion is u r a caring n sharing fnd. kp it” and one member from the “toxic” family says “you are a great guy brother....... i hope u never change..... “ while his girls friend replied saying “i've met you only once but i felt you are a very gentle soul and i hear you are a man of principles. keep it up. the world needs more people like you.” And finally from SL one who worked in our institution says “well i feel you are a Good and Understanding Friend.... very good qualities... willing to help others.... and you are very handsom, naughty fun loving down to earth person”

One of my co-worker said “u r the MARS chocolate bar at contracting....in short the 'energy' “. Another friend says “you are a cool n great guy! and a very friendly friend. :D n u know how to make people laugh! “

Now it comes to my students …i.e. the students I taught in tuition class… most of them were really great and are still in touch and doing very good in life. One of the girl who got second place from the entire Maldives top 10 says “u r da best teacher a student cn ever wish t have.....a frend whose worthy than nyth on da earth......u r always there wen i nyd u.....sharing ur views nd opinions n guiding me thru da tough days......ill never frgt those sms u sent me during o levels.....they wer one thng dat kept my confidence other than ur valuable advices.....u will always b someone close t my heart( evn tho i dnt get much chance t tok t u nw ) knowing u was kinda blessing fr me....so thanx a lot fr evrythn sir......( alsu words really cnt xpress hw i fyl abt u )”

while another girl who is very close and nice says “well....ur ONE of my fave teachers.not just sayng this... as a friend,ur really kind,trusted..well..ur great listener u know :) i know ur a very caring peron.and most importantly u understnd others feelings wich i love most. i wish u a very bright future..and im really happy i got a friend like u.”

Finally a boy whom I know before I taught him… and is a friend of many of my friends and mine too said “canadian people are good friends of ma family you came for studies and accommodate in one of ma cousins house..you were a great guy who got a nice girl so that a neighbouring friend had a crush on her and we almost had some missions to make you in trouble but later on we realised that you are a great friend and teacher who thought me maths ...and some of ya student almost liked you..keke “

These are what people feel about me... What they say about me… everyone has a different view… that’s how it would be… but I am thankful to each one of you spending few minutes of your time to write something for me…

I really feel great and lucky to have all of you in my life… we might sometime not be in touch … we might not express our feeling towards each other.. We might forget things… but am sure I will not forget such a great people in my life and will be always there with me…

"TOXIC"................

It started beginning of January. I was told by Shehan that some people wanted to meet us regarding their class party or something. We went and met them and decided to change it to a big party from a small class party. There the idea of Mercury Night 2009 came into being. With the approval to go ahead we started our work. It was named as “TOXIC” no way out till March.



With few people known in the organizing committee we started the “BIG” project of the year. It was such a big project that we decided to have it on February 28th. Almost after two months. We had to find out Sponsors and Banners to support it. We tried our best to get as many as sponsors so that we could pass the benefit to the students by reducing the ticket price.



As I am not from SL I don’t know much places to go for sponsors. So I was just a mere body inside when it comes to sponsor meetings. I was given the biggest responsibility of a Treasurer by Mr.Kamal. We had so many meetings and we were like 24/7 at Mercury. We went so many places in search of sponsor. We spent so many times together and it was really fun. We got to know each other better with some small fights between the members.



It was less than two weeks and only one sponsor was confirmed with some few banners from here and there. We were so worried that we thought the party might be a flop but still we didn’t lose our spirit and worked hard. We were able to convince ACCA to be the main sponsor and with that we were sorted.


The party was a great success with about 200 people and a good profit. It was the most happening party. Everyone enjoyed being in the party. We, the committee members were so happy to see that our great effort made it a success. Thanks to everyone, the sponsors and the banner providers, lecturers, Mercury institute and the students.



“TOXIC” made a big change in our life. It made me get very good friends and made the close friends to get closer. It made things turn in a happy way for many of the participants. I miss the times we spent together. I miss you all, the “TOXIC family” .It was great.

Maahi Aaja Re...... A nice song..

This is one of my favorite song... the most I play now ( here is the translation of the song which is from... Raaz - the mystery continues )

by meeting you, i felt like..
i was searching for you
there is some sort of morning in you that..
i stay awake for it's sake
come and decorate my dreams
sweatheart come now
my god, my heart is crying, you come now my sweatheart
my sweatheart, my sweatheart, come now my sweatheart
sweatheart, sweatheart, sweatheart
in my heartbeats, there's my sweatheart
in my breaths, there's my sweatheart
without you, everything was sad
every living moment was a burden
the sorrow/sadness have been erased by obtaining you
all the ambience blossomed
you were living in me every moment
in every little piece, you were there
come and stay/blend in me
without you, every day was lonely
without you, every night was dark
without you, breaths were like nashthar
without you, everything was dead/lifeless
without you, living was a punishment
taking breath was like a sin
come and spread in my heart

This I took from a site..

Isnt it hard,.........

It is hard, sad and kind of boring life for me to be away from home. It is even difficult to express how I feel being away. Since 1997 I have been away from my home island for my studies and work. I only go to my island on holidays. So I am kinda used to it. But away from not only Home Island and also country make me feel lonely very often.

This is first time in my life I have come to abroad, and I miss my family, friends, island and country like nothing. I miss them mostly in special occasion like Eid, B’days or some events. They have touched my heart so much that I think of them each and every day.

As it is said that “to gain something we have to sacrifice something”, am sacrificing all those happy moments and times for my studies so that I could spend time with them being a successful man. This would make them as well as me happy. I want this sacrifice to be worth as am going to get much more happiness with this sacrifice.

This is what we call life, and as my habit is to enjoy my life whatever it comes I try to enjoy each and every moment I spend here in Srilanka. This is why I make friends here so that it would be a reason for me to live in this period here. They are the family here.

Thank you all……..

Congratulation to young fathers

I congratulate my friends who have become fathers and who are yet to be soon within few months in 2009.It is with much pleasure I hear that you all have become fathers.I was so surprised and happy to hear it.

Here , now on there are more responsibilities for you to fulfill. As a father, husband, son, brother, friend and................ So be a better of all these roles. I know you can do it. You have proven it before that any role can be perfectly done.

I just remember those days which we spend together talking about different things and the fun we had. Those are the days that I wont forget ever in my life. We, the single ones just wonder, if it was a true thing. the people who made fun with us all the 24/7 has become fathers.

I cant express the feeling and how much am happy for you. I just want you to share with me the feeling of being fathers in so young age about the age of 22-24. I will always be there for you guys and wish you a very happy life ahead.

Friendship

I don’t think anyone will disagree with me if I say friends are part of our life without which we can’t live. When I say this people say “why can’t we live without them??” The answer is simple “Because you can’t”. If you can just try to live without them for about a month even. To say the truth I can’t.

Friendship can be described as co-operation between two people, understanding between them which should have affection towards each other with due respect and loyalty. They should have helping behavior even though crisis comes between them.

The most important element of a friendship is trust. I would call it “food of friendship” without which it won’t be lasting like we can’t live without food. Another important element is how much you value it. The more you value it the more you get closer. On this basis we got to select the best for the other.

Honesty is another important one, as not everyone can tell you what is wrong in your side. There will be few people telling you how actually they feel about you. This is needed for a friendship. A friend should be a person who is honest in whatever they say and whatever they do. They should find your mistakes and let you correct them and appreciate the good things you do. This makes the person understand himself much more. It goes along with the trust.

For the honesty and specially letting you to know the mistakes there should be understanding not just understanding but a good understanding. Without it you might you might put a full stop to it or even a comma where a third party has to come.

Sympathy is an element where I find almost in every friendship but it is also important to have empathy where you should be able to understand others mind or the emotions. Sometimes it is difficult in hard situations to take the initiate and share it with a friend but if a friend comes questioning what has happened we tend to share it automatically.This makes us to reveal a lot of pressure on our side. If you don't believe it just try it you will realize how true am i?

Love is also vital for a relation like this. How can two people be close if they don’t love each other? We might not feel it and it might be difficult for us to believe it, because we only know one ‘love’ which is called the romance. We should love them, the way they are, from where they come from and so on…

Friendship is much closer relationship than the others. Because in friendship we come close to each other ( even in the other relations) by sharing the life experiences, getting to know the other one better. So in this process it makes the people more comfortable to share whatever they come across in their life. For instance in a dad-son relationship it would be difficult to share quite a lot of things. If he can share then it can be called a form of friendship.

There can be many types of friendship. The number may depend on the person. Best friend(s) will be the closest ones whom you share everything. The next may be closest friends and closer friends. There may another part can name it as ‘known friends’ who you know from somewhere or you have gone to some place together or you have talked to them , but is not a ‘friend’. There would be another type called ‘friend’s friends’ who are friends of your friend’s who you know from one or more of your friends who is not very close to you.

I wonder why people disagree in having close friendship with the opposite sex. To be a friend we don’t have to be of same sex. But then I have told by many people that it is sometimes easy to share information with an opposite sex friend than of a same sex, if that person is trust worthy. I have come across situations like that which I won’t be able to share it here. I haven’t seen these friendship been so robust for a long time unless and until all the people around are understanding people. People say “if two people of opposite sex are close they tend to fall in love.” I, of course can’t say anything about it.

What can I say is a love relationship is also a kind of friendship, where it to be continued, if all elements of friendship need to be present in it. This might be difficult to accept but if you think you will realize that it is the truth.

One can argue people are different, the culture, religion, nationality , belief and ethnicity may be different and how can of people from two different religion, or culture can be friends? Why not? Why can’t they be friends? As I have said if there is all elements with the respect for who he/she is, it isn’t difficult to be friends.

I am a person who likes to have friends. I love to be friend with others. So this made me to get many friends where I have one best friend and am a best friend for 4-5 friends and uncountable close friends. Childhood friends, O’level class mates, A’level class mates, office mates, CIMA class mates…..

I take this opportunity to thank all my friends and all who are close to me and who consider me as a close one, especially as am in a foreign country, the close friends from here.

I love you all and will never ever forget you.

A friend in need is a friend indeed… am there for you always

Diamond sports and recreation club

Masha Allah Diamond sports has been registered as Diamond Sports and recreation club on 31st December 2007. And so it was the perfect date that we were planning. We planned to register in 2008 and we started the year 2008 with our team been registered.

Our club registered in Orchid Villa B.Kendhoo and the founder Members are MOHAMED ASHAAN of Raasthaa and JAUFAR SADIQ of waadhee.As the present General Manager of the team I take this opportunity to congratulate them and hope they will continue with their hard and smart work as founder members. And hope they will have the election soon to continue with the objectives of the club as soon as possible.

The main thing we should focus is the over all peace between clubs that are registered in the island. As we see them disagree and fight for useless things. We need to make sure this don't happen with us.We, even though a separate clubs should work together for the betterment of our island. And I think there is no use of a club if we don't do this.

And I congratulate all the members of the Diamond sports and the management of the team.I wish we will get all the supports that we need from our people and other clubs too.

May Allah bless us in every right thing we do and guide us to the right way. Amen.

Happy B'day Kuda

Today is my own sis's birthday

I don't always tell you
How you fill my heart with cheer
And how happy I am
Whenever you are near

I don't always tell you
That the love you give
Brightens the days
That I live

I don't always tell you
What's in my heart
That you are
An important part

I don't always thank you
For the many things you do
Or tell you how much
I really love you!

Sending good wishes
to one I hold dear
Can't be there in body
but my spirit is near

Wishing a happy birthday
to a sweet sister like you
Hope this day be a happy one
may all your wishes come true
May allah bless you

Happy Birthday!
