( This is a glance into to lives of Afghan women , written by an Afghan girl in her teens and learning English to improve her life,  after a little motivation she shared her views )


Forty years of war, chronic poverty, natural disasters are a deadly combination for people in Afghanistan. Seventy-five percent of those in need are women and children. In Afghanistan women face a lot of problems like domestic violence, abuse and expolitation. Voilence against women and girls increased after the war. Girls education in Afghanistan is impossible.Girls are not allowed to go to school for some reason, mostly because of the attacks on schools and some Afghan parents don’t want their daughters to go to school because they don’t trust their daughters.Women are not  allowed to work,  well maybe 1% of girls and women can work there and it’s really hard for a women to work , because their chances of  being abused and raped are high.There are a lot of child marriages in Afghanistan, girls are not allowed to go outside and as soon they are 14 or 15 they marry them to an older man and in some cases the day they are born , they engange them to someone. Women don’t have any rights in Afghanistan ,girls and women who are married and lives in villages all day they just do the house chores , look after their children and they serve their  in- laws all day. Well , one of the thing I am concerned about women in Afghanistan is violence. They persecute girls and women so much for instance if they say anything against their in- laws, husband or even her own family they will soon beat her and shout at her. Women rights must be respected. Women must be allowed to work and to move freely. And girls must be allowed to go to school. We should stop violence against women and girls. And child marriages should stop in Afghanistan.

Buckle Up for The Bumpy Road Of Marriage

  To be in a relationship is a huge commitment , to fight monotony,  differences,  difference of opinions , habits,  thoughts, ideas and embracing your partner with all of the challenges is not a piece of cake. Although it seems like super easy in the beginning,  when we are living it half in reality and the other half in the world of dreams. However when you take your vows and begin to live a routine together , with all it's realities and responsibilities,  it might turn into a challenge at some point , for every couples, although it's intensity might be different.  It won't be wrong to say that the biggest challenge of present times is boredom and the distractions we find to overcome that makes it even worse .In the past human beings were generally suffice with whatever they had , they were grateful for everything in their lives ,perhaps due to the fact that they were able to achieve those things after a great struggle,  Nowadays it's the opposi...

The Magical Beans Of Al Mokha In Yemen

  There are a huge number of people in every corner of the world who are addicted to coffee, from opening their eyes and crawling out of bed for a hot cuppa to drinking this beverage whole day till they hit the sack again .The legend has it that the magical beans were discovered by the Sufi mystics in  the vibrant and warm land of Yemen.
