I blog therefore ...

The other day , in the middle of morning rush of rounding on patients , I was inspired by one , she sounded confused , after which I asked " Do you know what year we are in ? " , she giggled before trying to  answer my question in an attempt to show how silly it was ! Shortly the moment of truth came , she started looking around  to think , after a while and with a big smile on her face she replied  " 1967 " . At that moment that evil me was  laughing , celebrating , and screaming " in your face you old sick lady " . After getting out of the room , I stood there for a second to think of what kind of memories that lady's rusty brain was stuck at in 1967 , then it all occurred to me suddenly when I started introjecting what had just happened ! I realized I was no different ! I was totally DISORIENTED too .

In medicine , when we first examine patients , we start by assessing  wakefulness followed by orientation . Orientation means exactly " enak te3raf wein Allah 7atak " , and consists of 3 elements ; time , place & person 

When I asked myself that question , I found myself stuck somewhere in 2008 . It all happened after graduating from medical school and finishing my internship year . I was entirely shocked with the real life , and how much work it takes me to get my career set and well established ! The goal I had at that time was to get to the states and start residency ! I decided I need to be focused on the freaking USMLE exams that can lead me to achieve my goal . And that was the time when I decided to abandon my blog and take a little break . Apparently that little break was a little bit longer than what I was expecting ! 

Simply, I blog to express , & not to impress ! Whenever I hit the " New Post " button and start typing , that is the time when I have a light bulb above my head . My blog is that quiet place that I lock myself in , to think and see clearly . 

Having that being said , obviously I was barley thinking in the past years , I have just been going with the flow and adopting the trends of others . I was putting myself in a position to take the crap of people whether I liked it or not . I was thriving , or more correctly , surviving on others' infested , filthy , lousy  & nasty thought process  .

I had never been like this , I might have been for now , bs Inshallah & for sure I ll never be anymore .I have the tendency to develop or even create new music of minds !
Sorry Rene , allow me to rephrase , I blog therefore I think , I think therefore I am me .
