STOP Whining and FIGURE IT OUT!!!



My words go out to those who believed in a revolution that merely started on the 25th of January 2011, even if our beliefs and paths have departed after the ousted president left.  To those who didn’t even support the initiative my apologies if I talk a different language.  
Cutting it short we all agree on those 3 things hopefully:
1-عيش
2- حرية
3-عدالة اجتماعية
Now our methods are different and so are our paths obviously. Some of us still see that the revolution got us nowhere and resistance still remains our only option. Others see that we are exactly where we need to be politically but protesters are slowing us down.
Tackling point #1 … I present to you civil services and NGOs that work on daily basis concerned with only one thing actually feeding people all across Egypt. They wouldn’t mind people helping out as volunteers or as PR or fundraising. If not they wouldn’t turn down financial resources or more exposure.  If not you could cover as an independent individual how some bakeries cheat people in prices and quality and the way people actually DIE to get bread? There are a million things we could do those are just on the top of my head
Point #2:  it’s quite obvious the entire Egyptian society won’t ever agree on this. Some people think we are already there and we are a free democratic country. Others don’t even see it as an issue that affects their day to day life. Others obviously think it’s a sham and we are still not even at square one. To each his own and this is a feeling that isn’t defined or measured to let it be…..
Point #3 : You need to first define what that actually means? Are you someone who wants each and every Egyptian to have the same rights and treatment or are we too comfortable in our own little bubble and comfort zones that it doesn’t even matter anymore?? So it matters to you FIGURE SOMETHING OUT TO DO!!!

So I guess what I’m trying to say is that we share this country and we won’t always move in the same direction with the same force. People are different, WE are different but at the end of the day unless a sociopath or a thief we all have the same intentions a better society and a country. SO FIGURE SOMETHING OUT!!!!
Go out there, help out, and report when things go wrong. I am assuming you believe in the elections brought to you by the revolution you participated in. GO out there nag to your deputies about your concerns. Nag to the government services. Get your rights and nothing less. We have come this far and your nagging and whining that people don’t want to join you or that it’s too much or that your lonely in a square, too much of a square , a square doesn’t control us. Just forget about that start taking action as an individual. Fight for those who are less fortunate please!
Protesters should stop blaming people who don’t want to pitch in with this struggle and people who don’t want to be there shouldn’t take the protesters as an excuse. YES it’s all related and dependent but we will never intersect. This is a fact we need to deal with and work with. Just figure something out and remember that I guess one day we all had this glimpse of hope we’ll turn out and be better, So reach for that and quit blaming others. If they are an obstacle get past it and start building in a different direction.  
From now on as an individual I’ll start doing what I see fit. I don’t need everyone I know to support copy or even care about it. So please enough with wasting our energies on proving points no one needs to know, and believe it or not NO you won’t be seeing any converts to your point of view. It’ll get you absolutely nowhere and is a total waste of energy.
So just STOP.
