5 Stages of Writing: From Provocation to Euphoria
The Five Stages of Writing
This blogger is no stranger to the pleasures and pains of writing. It can be your passion. It can be your undoing. Like the best of torments, we can't live without it. As a writer, she lists the 5 different phases you are likely to face if you ever take up a writing project.
"Contrary to how it may sometimes look, writing is really no picnic. I mean, it could be a picnic once you get started and just go with the flow of words and thoughts, but the road to that point could be quite bumpy."

The Hate of Men will Pass and Dictators Die
The common themes of humanity's constant search for liberty and freedom is never-ending. In light of the events in Syria, U.S.-based blogger Malik highlights this rare find. In Charlie Chaplin's own directorial and writing credit, "The Great Dictator", he gives out a stunning speech about humanity and its rise against its self-built oppression. Well worth a look.
"The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed, the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress: the hate of men will pass and dictators die and the power they took from the people, will return to the people and so long as men die [now] liberty will never perish. . ."

Why I am not a “Ya Binit”
Words can be the worst form of oppression. They ebb and flow discourse without us even noticing. In this case, this blogger discusses the negative connotation of the word, "binnit". As long as you are unmarried, no matter the age, position, what you do in life, you are marred by your so-called marital status.
As a strong, independent, unmarried woman, this blogger refuses to be labeled by the status of her virginity, a.k.a "marital status".
"I am not a binit and your questions of “anseh will madam?” will not be answered. I am a woman and I will not be reduced to a child tethered by a hymened leash that exists in your head."

Forced match making
Female friends are wonderful. But this Lebanese blogger is suffering from one thing: their occasional propensity to try and play matchmaker- in the most unsubtle ways.
"Scenario 2
me: hi
cute girl: hi
me: yep, I am that guy…
cg: oh , you send a girl to tell another girl that you have a crush on her."
