Painkillers and headaches

published by LookingToSee on 20 September, 2012 - 22:26

Remember when painkillers were kept in a glass bottle in the medicine cabinet? Maybe not. But back then, if you had a headache, you'd wait until you got home, open the dusty bottle, and swallow a white, powdery pill, which tasted disgusting. Now, when we have a headache, we don't wait. We pat our pockets, or dig into our bags. And if you don't have any on you, somebody else will. You sometimes see people taking the packets out in pubs and putting them on the table, next to their drinks. Then they take a pill, and wash it down with wine. And the thing is, the packets look nice. They look smart. There's no stigma. Why? Because the marketers got hold of them.

Cupping is a form of alternative medecine used and recommended by the prophet Sallallahu'alaihiwassalam

it consist of basically gathering blood in a certain area through creating a vacuum in a cup then cutting through the top of the skin (i think they call it epidermis) to remove the blood gathered there. its not blood from veins its just the blood that gathers under the skin.

Being a stranger.

published by LookingToSee on 14 July, 2012 - 21:20

The Prophet (peace be upon him) was reported to have said, “Be in this world as though you were a stranger or a traveler.  When evening comes, do not expect to live until morning, and when morning comes, do not expect to live until evening.  Take from your health a preparation for your illness, and from your life for your death.”  [Al-Bukhari]

The Prophet (peace be upon him) was reported to have said, “Islam started and will return back as something strange; paradise is for the strangers.”

 

but..being a stranger is so hard...

Third Culture Kids

published by LookingToSee on 14 July, 2012 - 21:08

Ruth Van Reken:
“A third culture kid is a person who has spent a significant part of his or her developmental years outside their parents’ culture. The third culture kid builds relationships to all the cultures, while not having full ownership in any. Although elements from each culture are assimilated into the third culture kid’s life experience, the sense of belonging is in relationship to others of the same background, other TCKs.
