Some nights are better than others. Last night I slept fairly deeply but I had disturbing dreams. I dreamt I was trying to climb up a sandy/rocky, steep hill. I could not get a proper hold and the rock kept getting loose. Later I dreamt I was in a house but I could not get [...] [...more]
My father, Ghazi Abdulrahman Algosaibi – poet, technocrat, diplomat, author, novelist, Arab icon – died peacefully on Sunday the 15th of August at 10:30 am in King Faisal Specialist Hospital, in Riyadh. He was surrounded by his wife, his four children, and one grandchild. Of course a blog post like this cannot do my father [...] [...more]
My friends, I wish you a most happy and blessed Holy Month and an accepted fast, for you and your loved ones. Ramadan Kareem. [...more]
Sometime in the early 2000′s (I can’t pinpoint the exact date) I started on a serious journey of self-improvement. I read (and continue to read) lots of self-development books, as well as attend seminars and listen to audio programmes.

The End of The Manual Gear Box? I don’t change cars very often. They seem to last a long time with me. But for the last few months I’ve been considering buying a new car. My Golf 4motion is getting a bit old. I never really had much time to do any research to see [...] [...more]
There I was, watching an episode of the internet show “Random”, by Kevin Rose and Tim Ferris, when I thought to myself hey, my wife and I could do that! I thought people would be interested to see how we think, and to know some of the topics we’re interested in. So I showed Alia [...] [...more]
This weekend my wife and I watched the movie City of Life , directed by my Hajj buddy Ali Mostafa. Let me tell you, it was great! I was very pleasantly surprised. I did not expect the movie to be of this quality. Virtually everything about it was great; the quality of the filming, the [...] [...more]
This is an unusual topic for me to discuss on my blog. But I have some thoughts on this topic, so why not share them with you, right? I guess I’m a bit of a fence sitter on this one. For me, this question – do you believe in UFO’s – can be divided into [...] [...more]
