My Motto

Be compassionate to the needy, Neither squander wealth nor hoard it. Never lose your sense of shame, if questions are asked of you, answer them frankly but do not ask too many yourself. Be manly and of good cheer. Never kill a foe who is begging for mercy and be ever loyal in love

Own your own way

Do Not Go Where The Path May Lead, Go Instead Where There Is No Path And LEAVE a TRAIL ....

Life, Hayat


“Yaşamak şakaya gelmez.
Büyük bir ciddiyetle yaşayacaksın,
Bir sincap gibi mesela
Yani yaşamın dışında ve ötesinde hiçbir şey beklemeden
Yani bütün işin gücün yaşamak olacak…” 

N.Hikmet

The Other me

I have seen another sky
I have climbed another tree
I have wished another star,
above another star lit sea

Another me lives another life,
I've always dreamed
Another me exists somewhere
Why can't I live that life there?
Please let me be ... the other me

And I have seen another sunrise,
and another lightning storm
I'm not just the me you see
You see another me was born

Another me lives another life,
I've always dreamed
Another me exists somewhere
Why can't I live that life there?
Please let me be ... the other me

Somewhere I'm happy
I'm smiled at understood
In another Place I lift my face,
not hide it in a hood

I have seen another sky
I have climbed another tree
I have wished another star,
above another star lit sea

Somewhere I'm happy
I'm smiled at understood
In another Place I lift my face,
not hide it in a hood

I have loved another love,
in another place like this
I've been held and felt so safe
Oh yes, I've kissed another kiss..

I Married Yasemin on 11\09\2011 at 6:30 in Uskudar

At last I Married Yasemin on 11\09\2011 at 6:30 in Uskudar. we had been dating for 6 and half years by the time we married. She is from Trabzon which is placed in east part of Turkey and i live in Istanbul which is in west so it was a little bit difficult for us to have ceremonies and it was also a bit expensive. Anyway we are together and the rest is not important. However i have understood that marriage life is pretty different than the dating, i thought nothing was going to change and we were going our path as we always did but it did not happened like that; firstly you have to deal with everything on your own-the bills, shopping, neighbours, and the problems. My wife Yasemin cannot cook, it is not because of her laziness or incapability but because of lacking of time as we leave the house at 6 in the morning and she comes home at 7 I arrive at about 10 pm because i have two jobs. i am supposed to work much because i have so many debts and i have to pay them as soon as possible. Nowadays i am in dilemma that my first job ( ACA) has offered me better conditions than here except working in the evenings and weekends but i have signed a deal with Doga high school, the conditions here are very difficult than the former because i have to apply so many things that i cannot write here. i should prepare students both for international English language testing system( IELTS), Cambridge ESOL, KET, PET and also university entrance exam. If i quit my job here i could be punished 5000 tl because i give up before the time is over. i have to decide what i should do by the end of this month. i hope i can do the best for my family. WISH ME LUCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am about to marry

YES IT IS VERY SOON I AM GOING TO MARRY THIS WEEK. MY FIRST CEREMONY WILL BE IN TRABZON ON 08/09/2011 AT 8 O CLOCK AT ORJIN WEDDING HALL AND MY SECOND WEDDING CEREMONY WILL BE IN ISTANBUL ON 11/09/2011 AT ÜSKÜDAR MUNICIPALITY WEDDING HALL. IT HAS BEEN A TOTAL 7 YES SEVEN YEARS SINCE WE MET SINCE I LOVED YASEMIN SO AT LAST WE CAN MARRY WE CAN DESTROY ALL HANDICAPS WE CAN IGNORE EVERYBODY AND WE MARRY. I AM SO HAPPY ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SOME BOTHERING THINGS SUCH AS THE MONEY I SPENT AND RELATIVES. I DO NOT WANT TO MAKE MY MOTHER AND MY WIFE SAD, I TRY TO FIND MIDDLE WAY BUT ITI IS VERY HARD TO FOLLOW. MY MOTHER IS A VILLAGER AND SHE ACTS ACCORDING TO IT. SHE EXPECTS HER DAUGHTER IN LAWS TO BEHAVE AS SHE BEHAVED WHEN MY MOTHER WAS A BRIDE HOWEVER SHE IS NOT AWARE THAT TIME HAS CHANGED AND THIS IS NOT VILLAGE AND THE BRIDES ARE NOT FROM OUR VILLAGE OR THEY ARE NOT OUR RELATIVES SO IT IS NATURAL FOR THEM TO BEHAVE IN AN UNUSUAL, OPPOSITE WAY. THATS WHY THE PROBLEM OCCURS. ANYWAY I HOPE WE CAN HANDLE THE SITUATION. TAKE CARE MY DEAR BLOG. I MISS WRITING HERE.

...
Üzülme, dert etme can.
Görebiliyorsan, dokunabiliyorsan, nefes alabiliyorsan,
yürüyebiliyorsan ne mutlu sana.
Elinde olmayanları söyleme bana.
Elinde olanlardan bahset can.
Üzülme.
Geceler hep kimsesiz mi geçecek?
Gidenler dönmeyecek mi?
Yitirdiğin her ne ise; bir bakarsın yağmurlu bir gecede veya bir bahar sabahında karşına çıkmış.
Bil ki, güzellikler de var bu hayatta.
Gel Git’lerin olmadığı bir hayat düşünebilir misin?
Hüzün olgunlaştırır,
Kaybetmek sabrı öğretir.
