A Whisper

What you are describing is "searching for wife", keeping skeptic at every relation by that question inside us "Is she the one?". I guess when I put "may be finding my love" as a wish last year, I meant something different. At that time, I find my need to have love in my empty live. It was a heart need more than a mind decision.

However, I confess that the question "Is she the one?" is dropped in my head many times. And like you said, it makes our hearts less free to express its feelings without thinking "Is this overreacting?" or "Would she understand my free words in a different way?". Well, this's a fear in my live. Being afraid that the other will understand my free way of talking in a different way, forcing me to CHAIN my feelings. And here comes the hammers in my brain, "Why you said this or that?", "Keep silent, you better keep your tongue in your mouth!!!", "You're in eastern society where your free feelings aren't suitable?". So, I keep my feelings for myself, keep my words tied and here I'm a new member in non-free big society.

I'll kill YOU for initiating this stream in my head again. I almost forgot that I'm not free and may be imagined or kidding myself that I can say what I want.

Tarek, to be frank with you, this's not a new idea. I proposed the idea in Linux-Egypt in May, 2005. We brainstorm, assign articles to people and made a site for the magazine. People was very enthusiastic about it. We called the magazine "همزة وصل". After 2 months, everything fades down. I don't know why? People at that time said, Arabs can't complete one project, we didn't have "SMART goals" as Ashraf said and things like that.

I felt bad that time coz I wanted to make this project. May be we didn't plan it correctly, we didn't have clear goals or may be it wasn't the suitable time for it. I don't know and you know what, that wish was gonna go to the cancelled wishes this year but don't know why I put it in to be continued wishes. It's a dream. I didn't work on it last year and I wish someone will pay attention to it and think about it.

The problem I'm facing with myself is that I'm not good Arabic technical writer. We organized it very well but I guess, I didn't push people enough to be committed to it.

Thanks, Lasto adri.

A simple question about saying whatever, can you say to a guy "You are so nice?" without doubting "he could understand it wrongly and thought I'm in love with him" while you're not, you're just saying your free feelings.

Well, I do not know how you’ll get that, but yes I did before. I am with you it can’t be left to the open this way, but someway or another there are people in your life you can find yourself free to talk with without having this mis-understand. I believe I was lucky having –such- people who understand quite well who am I, how I react to things, and so it wasn’t very odd *of me*..

(e7m,, wad7 eni da5lt fl mawdo3 el 3’alat, ka 3adati ), However, I wasn’t talking about she/he relationships only, but in general, secretly hinting at –my reference without details- a personal relationship with a girl (friend) in school, when she suddenly passed away..

Bottom line is:
Sometimes you need to say something,, nase7a, law mesh 3eb wala 7aram,, say it,, bas mesh lazm in the sense it would make the other feel “I love you ya3ni” :S especially girls,, ma bysada2o :S

Keda aw keda,, personal opinions differ and you free to take what suits you

You're right, it's in 2 steps:
1. Fixing the Drupal theme.
2. Change the default input format to make comments XHTML compliance.

But in the main time, it's not very easy because I depended on wiki module of drupal in earlier posts which generate an non-XHTML-compliance code. So, I have to go through posts one-by-one and make it XHTML by myself.

By the way, I find this FireFox extension that validate pages' HTML and generate cleaned XHTML code automatically. This's very helpful.
