Time is...

I am happy to have new years or anniversaries just because they are good opportunities to have fun, and enjoyment with family & friends.

Most of people has new year resolutions. Such as
starting a new healthier diet, lose weight, exercise more, quit smoking, less alcohol, get rid of bad habits, to learn new language or new dance, to meet "the one"and live happily ever after, to improve career.. ect

Unfortunately most of them will be forgotten after couple of days or at most weeks. 

Time & calendar are created by human-being. They are good to organize our daily life but in Nature they are not much use of them.

Birds don't check the calender to decide migrant, They just fell it, it is the time.

Babies don't check the calendar to start talking or walking. They just do it, when they are ready..

Please do not wait till the beginning of the new year / or first day of the next month or the next Monday to start something you really want to do it.

I saw below quote on Facebook this year. When ever I see someone is depressed on Monday or postpone something for the next "beginning" I am repeating this to them also to myself time to time.

"there is no Monday in Nature"

Just do it once you fell that you are ready for it.

Happy new year to all of us.

a street at Satwa

taken at Satwa, There are plenty of shops and very lively district of Dubai. What ever you need to fixed or buy, you can find it in Satwa also it will be very competitive prices comparing to 5 stars Malls.

decoration of Iranian Hospital

Iranian Hospital has really great tiles and decoration. Unfortunately, each time I was in hurry to stop and take pictures. Today, I manage to take this picture while I was waiting at the traffic light.
I had couple of seconds to take the picture afterwards the view blocked by another car. This building has more beautiful tiles than this one and I want to share those in the future. One day for sure :)

Another post from Al Satwa.
This shop is selling fabrics but second hand sewing machine as well.
200 Dhs is equal approximately 54 USD

Al Satwa

One of the most visited and interesting area of Dubai; Al Satwa.
Al Satwa is located south west of Bur Dubai and just parallel to Sheikh Zayed Road. There are plenty of shops and cafes which are offering different things for different needs.

You can buy plants for your garden or jewellery for your partner or paint for your house or tire for your car or frame for your favourite art piece or furniture. If you want to built/repair something you can find all necessary tools or you can buy second hand sewing machine or fabric for your wedding dress, ect. If you need anything, just go to Satwa, for sure you will find it, plus it will be much cheaper than fancy shopping malls.

With this variety, Al Satwa deserves "the most interesting place to visit in Dubai" title. At first glance you can not expect that. Here you can see one narrow street, workers at laundry in a short break.
The view from the street looks like contradicting with the image of Dubai but if you are living here, it is just Dubai.
