Today, is the anniversary of the death of the great poet Badr Shakir al-Sayyab. May his soul rest in heaven. Thought, this day shouldn't be passed without sharing this post half of it is to remind people, Iraqi people of the importance of this poet and how much his poems was a great inspiration to the young generation during his days. I wish if I could belong to his era, a lot simpler, a lot happier and culturally stronger, when there was a true definition to something called life, and love. But, for those of you who are not familiar with his name or his work; especially poetry lovers, here is a sample on one of his most popular poems called ( Rain Song ) Poem was translated from Arabic to English language by: Lena jayyusi and Christopher Middleton.

Written by Bedor Alobaidi Each wounded person on this land , have tasted sorrow since the day they were born, Lost memories and dead souls would bring you nothing except for failures and that's how the story began! The untold story began while you were gone and I was left alone trying to figure out the possibilities of connecting the past with the present maybe thought I would have the ability to pick up whatever sold piece of our iced memories that might help fixing our fake happiness; But I could not. I once heard you whispering secretly within yourself crying over a dead memory; a sweet bitter memory related to the land of cold souls.. when you were gone, all the signs of joy gone with you.. When you were gone, I never imagined that I will be a different person, a new person who's unrelated to anything after walking away from me and from your loved ones.. Clearly, you were moving up slowly, taking a different road to continue the journey alone by yoursel

Written by Bedor Alobaidi Artwork by Shereen Audi You got misunderstood today? So what? They will understand you tomorrow, when you will be already turning your back on them with no regression nor hard feelings, no- Nothing This is how life works and the best you could do is to turn whatever against you now with little patience to the ones who deserves it in the first place later on. And whether it’s going to take you days, months or years, there must be a day to come where you would be able to see a strong light crossing your way without worrying about those who are doing the impossible to underestimate you or stop you for whatever sick reasons they have in their minds. Overthinking about such people, will leave a negative impact on you, but ignoring them as they never exist is the key for not only gaining happiness, peaceful mind, and rested head from useless drama but it will also be one out of hundred steps to pass any difficulty you might be dealing with and reach

By Bedor Alobaidi Model-Bedor Alobaidi In Toto Photo by Photographer Alex Borzo Fay When you see someone who's treating you unfairly or misunderstood you in a way or another, do not go through unnecessary details with him/her, because no matter how much you gonna explain to them your point of view and try you're very best to make them understand the concept behind every single statement you were trying to make, they will never appreciate it. So, why you keep bothering yourself with such kinds of people? While you must have been told that the better ones are yet to come to brighten your life the way that makes you happy and well-supported. Never worry or think that you going to be lonely for the rest of your life because that is not correct. He or she will come eventually and share with you the most happiest, exciting moments of your life and will care about your success in every achievement you've done whether personally or professionally, stand

   Some bitter sweet lies/ Keep dreaming: By Bedor Alobaidi ( I will be thinking of you every moment from now until my eyes close and the lights go out. You will be the first thing on my mind the second I wake up)! -Someone, somewhere in his dreams said so, and made all of his mates laughing so bad at him because they knew in advance, he was practicing these words before he go up on stage and preform his role in front of a few hundreds of people. On the stage only, the place where audience feel like whatever performance they are watching will be somehow true and close to reality. Even though, IT IS NOT. Believing that the message behind any entertaining love story they got to watch, will simply have the power to transform them from being an ordinary type of lovers into unexpectedly perfect lovers. But again, dreamers gonna dream and nothing should stop them from turning those lies into another dreams and perhaps one of them would turn out smoothly wi

Written by Bedor Mosa Photo credit: Bedor Mosa Artists may depict what they see in the physical world, and they may utilize forms that no one has seen in either the natural or the human made world. Amer Alobaidi in this case and regardless of his approaches, he's definitely one of those remarkable artists who likes to invite his viewers to see what goes beyond conservative and modest appearances. And you can tell by standing in front of any artwork done by Alobaidi , he's that type of artists who does not limit nor categorizes himself in one or specific method, term, and style even though he has been known and recognized as a contemporary artist in the Middle East as well as the Western culture. The attached photo, and based on the artist's point of view he doesn't prefer to categorize it or interpret the meaning of the figures shape, or the space that's been all used with verity of colors and whether each color represents a certain

There's nothing wrong if I tend to be that kind of a person who's not so attached to the reality. People think that I'm a dreamer, and YES that's absolutely right, I am a dreamer, what's so wrong about that? If you can't dream you will not be able to build a future for yourself. Remember, that the smallest accomplishment you have done was literally based on a dream. Do not be a complete ignorant by denying the fact that you're dreams cannot serve your reality. I live on my dreams to survive today and have a better hope for tomorrow if it's meant to come smoothly without any unpleasant events. Although, this is life and we always have to expect the unexpected to happen because we just can't take any guesses of what would happen to us at any moment. But still, the point to make here is that don't let anybody look down or underestimate your dreams, thoughts and hopes because whoever allows to himse

I've always been a bit mysterious about what goes on behind the scenes of my dreams. And I'd like to simply change that habit beginning of today. Anybody would've done the same if they get to realize the fact of seeing a particular dream has become such a nightmare. And getting rid of what makes you think a particular dream could effects your life badly is quite of an accomplishment itself. Listen to your own inner voice and keep moving on without holding onto something does not exist any longer and stop giving explanations for something you truly believe it's been giving you nothing except for pain and disappointments, make the most of it whenever you feel its about time to take such a step like that. Though, Its no big of a deal but it's more likely a matter of pursuing a new way of living life without letting negativity taking over both of your reality and dreams. Take advantage of what you feel is the right thing to do and start working on it as so
