Why Yoga?
Every one of us, has experienced pain, sorrow, as well as happiness and well-being.We all have our moments of weakness and defeat as we also have our moments of glory.
I started my trip of salvation by asking questions almost about everything, and I accepted my share in emotional and physical suffer,until one day came when I mad up my mind, "I want to change all of this,I don't want to give up", and the trip started.
I started with sufism and I figured out how it is strongly linked to the core of yoga, how they are both standing on the same ground seeking for the same target; Leading the wandering soul to its origin and restoring its lost memory about its reality and its own power,to remember its roots and regain its upper hand in place of cravings, mind- tricks and phony world.
During my journey that is full of chronic pain and drastic struggle to be in a good physical condition to proceed and go on my way towards my targets and dreams, I figured out that I was all by myself and I had to be perseverant and truly believe in myself to win this challenge.
I believed in the marvelous powers inserted in the mankind's soul that is greatly masked by forgetfulness and sinking under the flesh's desires and surrendering to the deception of the brain.
I changed my diet and turned into a vegan.I started practicing Yoga, and meditation, reading about it's origin and its concept in different cultures.
I found that all religions ;whether they were ethnic or universal and before the interference of our avidity,had the same basis " Love, forgiveness and respect"

So, I began to believe in this " I was born for yoga":, my trip would be successful if I was able to help my soul regain its memory, when I restore my link with the whole universe, with God, when I reach to balance which is the real secret, extremes would bring me no good, so I have been working on this balancing point since then.
To be a guru one day, doesn't mean I'll be flawless, It doesn't mean I won't get sad or angry, but I'll be able to be in control and restore the balance,I'd be able to help others find their way to enlightenment.
I am a joke today,a beginner but I have a dream and a target , and I'll keep trying till the day comes when I am the one I want.
You can also be WHAT and WHERE you want, just believe, close your eyes, breathe deeply and slowly, smile then go and do the work , walk the way and never lose hope.
I still dream , wonder,wander, seek and love and I know how to fall in love with a stranger's eyes, with an energy you don't know much about its owner but you strongly feel it, you can't speak it loud, but this secret is alive and grows in you.
I know that eyes can hug, and a smile can heal and the heart can achieve.
