Beautility




What is beautiful is always different from person to another, but nowadays I think what is beautiful has became a standard, blond hair is considered beautiful, black skin is considered ugly, who told us that big lips is beautiful and small lips aren't.

We've been told from media what is beautiful and what's not, a very simple example, when we watch news on Aljazeera or Al Arabiay all the girls who are presenting look the same, white skin, big lips, skinny, and straight hair!!

What's wrong wit plaigarism

taking someones' work or ideas happens a lot in graphic Design and filmmaking, no can can create something new that hasn't been done at all. It's a human nature to steel other ideas, concepts and work.

I think it is considered plagiarism when you steel the same concept without altering it, however, if I'm copying someone's else's' work then where is the creativity.

A life of Luxury




When I think of what Luxury is? the first thing that comes to my mind is having something other people don't, stand out from the crowd, If Channel bags are sold for 100 riyal then where is the luxury in wearing it, if everyone else can get it.

everyone sees luxury from his social statue, one can see buying coffee with 10 riyal is luxury, another may think buying coffee for 25 is luxury, it depends,

Imam Ali said, " whoever gets rich, is from poor man's money"
this may not make sense but when you think about it, everyone has specific money for his own life, I'm responsible for every riyal I spend, when I know that some people are dying from hunger, who could I go and buy a coffee for 15 riyals when I can get it for 2 riyals, I'll be asked for these 13 riyals.


it means the extra money I have I'm spending it to achieve my physical pleasure is luxury and God will ask me about it, because it is not my money, God gave it to me, one day I'll be asked for each Riyal I spent.

We've become very materialistic, luxury has become very important in our lives, how come a holiday can be a holiday if it doesn't have luxury, doing something other people can't. otherwise it won't be luxury.
