When you are walking down the streets, when you come to interact with people or see how people are acting with each other, you will realize that everyone hates the other unless otherwise shows up & may be will still hate you and treat you as an enemy. I was in a bus going to university then that situation happened. One of the passengers told the driver in a rude way that he wants another banknote because the change he was given was badly torn. Logically - and yet not so normally - the driver replied in a worse accent “Look at the money you have just given me before you open your mouth”. Two people who have never seen anything bad from the other are just treating each other as enemies. As if giving the other torn money is an insult. Why do people like to show anger and hatred? Is it for showing strength? Dignity? Honor? I don’t think so, but unfortunately they do think so. The most honorable man Prophet Muhammad would have done as they did when he was hurt. Or they think they have more dignity than him? When will the outrage is replied with goodness, you will be able to beat yourself and yet feel you are the better whatever the other thinks about you.

This is a gr8 post really. The thing I liked the most about it is this sentence:
“Two people who have never seen anything bad from the other are just treating each other as enemies”.
U r right in every word u said and btw I think that those people who do so r extremely weak. They follow something like “7′odohom bel soot la ye3′leboko”. and el soot here means anything that is aggressive.
Nice post, keep it up (Y)

Mr Farid , ,
Nice Blog Sir , I didn’t notice you made a blog except few days ago but i was so busy to read , but today i had the chance at last 
.
Well , I totally agree with you in every word you said , but don’t be so harsh on these people , if this situation happened 50 years ago between the same two people and the same bus , they wouldn’t have done the same reaction at all. Nowadays everyone is so pressured from everything in life , everywhere is crowded , no one is well paid - am saying no one as the majority is - , the top authority doesn’t really respect the people so everyone feels that he is hated and so he always reacts aggressively , there are many many reasons we -Egyptians- became like that , i am still with you , these people are really weak and should act strong.
God bless Egypt and Save us from those who made us like that.
Sorry for the Very long comment :D and Good Luck in your blog and reaching the acm-ICPC word finals

Welcome at anytime dude. Don’t worry about the length, I do like long comments. I’m still not that busy to skim through it.
I appreciate what people have, but that doesn’t change concepts. If that happened once it’s okay, but not everyday, isn’t it?
What about you? Why won’t you reach it with me? Work hard & be a teacher assistant. nefsi fe mo3eed b2a ashofo beyet7awwel men taleb le mo3eed.

Interesting subject,
First off, let me say I’m not rude or anything..actually most of ppl know me say that I’m too nice..sometimes more than I should be..
That didn’t work for Egypt, that’s what I realized after settling in Egypt 1.7 year ago.
It’s a country, where you just can’t be nice to some people! FACT! You will have to accept it, I did.
btw, I’m on 2nd year too but never heard of you :]
