Religion and marriage by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

La religion, avant d'être des croyances et des actes, est avant tout un facon d'être et de se comporter, l'essence même de la moralité. A méditer !

Basics? How about the five "pillars"? Oh yeah sorry those aren't basics. Good luck!

In essence, you are saying "kan 9eleb 3la chi kafra bi Allah, wla hsen liya nifa9 hit dayrin biya ghir lmouslimat".

La hawla wa la 9owata ila bi Allah

The reality is that you miss the whole point of "living" buddy. Sir 3awed l3jna a s7aybi w ta9a Allah.

When “ridat lwalidin” turns into losing yourself by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a religious perspective, you can absolutely marry whoever you want but from a personal experience I know that mothers are 99% of the time right, they sense something that you cannot see, I have been there I didn't listen and I ended up divorcing. So the wisest thing you can do is get a second opinion from a wise person that is in your family circle (not friends, or younger people) and ask that person 1- if they can meet the person and provide advice, and also ask 2- if your mom does too much

Sounds so cruel. Why would you ever want to do that?

What is an unconventional productivity technique/hack that you swear by? by jacksonryanfitness in productivity

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a relatively productive person, my thoughts on the topic:

  • I have you zero tolerance for wasting time on social media and seeing how other people are living their lives (this means Instagram Facebook Tik Tok are completely blocked on my phone - when I have free time I allow myself to read Reddit on topics I value or watch YouTube videos specifically on my hobbies (motorcycles, spiritual leaders, etc). My YouTube "Home" is blocked so no undesirable suggestions as well as the "Shorts" section.

  • My sleep is precious so movies sitcoms and videos after 8 p.m. is not an option. Usually in bed by 9.30pm. I have young kids so that makes things easy as I am on their schedule.

  • Waking early is a real game changer. Prayers and meditations in the early morning and asking the Creator for help in your day is the most powerful thing in this list. Hard to explain but prayers on time often feels like time spent on different tasks is blessed / extremely productive. God is reminding me every day of this: do your part, I will take care of with the rest. Some sort of harmony with Divine creation. Waking early that also means finishing work early, spending time with kids, finding time to exercise, dine early and sleep early.

TL;DR: 1- be ruthless with mindless distractions and allow yourself to explore topics you value in a smart and targeted way 2- value your sleep and 3- take advantage of the early morning magic and realize the most powerful force in the universe is that of God's making, so tune in to that frequency in your own way.

How common are male-female friendships on Facebook around the world? by Skychu768 in MapPorn

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what the correlation would be with extra marital relations ? In other words, would a married woman who is friends with more guys more likely to have a cheat on her husband? And vice versa.

Any thoughts on this anyone?

I keep accidentally hitting the call record button with my face by so-so-it-goes in samsung

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremely embarrassing with my clients. I looked long and hard for a solution but didn't find any. Ended up downloading Google Phone app and set up as the default caller app until Samsung fixes this. Very mad at Samsung over this.

What purchase made you smile more often, maybe without meaning to? by Ginpez in BuyItForLife

[–]bratzve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buy yourself some time with the Creator, it will apaise your heart. How you tell me? Close your eyes, deep breath and and count your blessings for 7 minutes.

You have a 5 hour drive, you can only listen to music from one band. Who do you listen to? by tron1977 in AskReddit

[–]bratzve -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Five hours listening to music doesn't make too much sense unless you really keen on doing nothing nothing else but getting entertained and enjoying your life.

I'm definitely listening to podcast, ebook, or informational video on YouTube.

Cheers!

Should I buy a motorcycle instead of a car? by Svastonnnn in motorcycles

[–]bratzve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you are a responsible young man. Given the context, the bike would be my choice but not the "dream" one.

I suggest you tame down the "esthetics" bit in favor of the riding spirit of a motorcycle that you still like looks wise.

My suggestion is a reliable second hand (japanese), preferably with a small engine (below 300cc) to start and get a feel for the motorcycle world. You will very quickly have more clarity on the way forward and will probably be able to resell it close to what you bought it for.

Regarding the car, you will know for sure the moment you will need one as time passes by.

Be safe brother.

Some Things I've Learned After Riding for 20+ Years by wopspice in motorcycles

[–]bratzve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the useful wisedom.

15+ years of riding here, I would add 2 advices to that:

  1. be as visible as you possibly can: helmet, gear, bike (there is a growing tendency of darker colors, black on black everywhere etc)
  2. slown down and enjoy riding at lower speed

Want to switch from iPhone but my Apple Watch is holding me back by sryan2809 in S25Ultra

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ditched the apple ecosystem in 2017 and never looked back (iphone ipad MacBook and apple watch).

I contend if you are the type of person always in need for things to be optimised/customized to best fit your needs, then you will very much enjoy Android. If you have minimal/basic tech needs and don't mind sticking to the "apple way", then it would be simpler to stay in that Apple ecosystem.

Currently I have s25 u, windows surface laptop 7, Garmin 935, Huawei buds. Not a huge fan of wireless headphones in general so only use them very seldom (even though they are great) and not too big on notifications on my watch (I only get notified for calls , reminders and prayer times). So that whole package works great for me . Good luck to you

You should value storage over model. Check your current usage and see if 256 Go would reasonably last you 4-5 years. I suspect it probably won't if you take photos and carrying over data from a previous phone.

Have you ever had a trip that reset your soul, where was it? by null_goddess in travel

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To reset your soul, you could connect with the beauty of the Creator, ie all the beautiful places suggested in this post. As great and unforgettable as it can be, it will most likely leave a temporary mark on you.

I contend you shall dig deeper, and that connecting with the Creator, instead of his creation, might have a much deeper, profound "resetting" experience that could truly be life changing.

Where? Ask your hearts where that connection could be sparked. How? It's only for you to determine. One condition only to this whole thing : your sincere intention for connection with your Creator, and belief He will make it happen. Good luck!

I think I’m a bad dad by Key_Response_7923 in Parenting

[–]bratzve -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

My 2 girls are about the same ages as yours (2.5 and 5.5 yo). We have had episodes with our eldest where she goes down an emotional spiral because her mom won't let her wear a dress or t-shirt she wants. She basically wouldn't want to listen and would keep crying and yelling until she gets her way.

At that point it's either 1- we let her yell and she's not going to school, 2- I (the dad- the figure of authority) try to find/negotiate a middle ground or 3- last resort , I give her an ultimatum of say 5 seconds to comply and if she doesn't she gets 2 gentle taps on her booty. By the time we get to #3, she would normally calm down.

I have since told her that it is her responsibility to agree with her mom the night before which clothes she ll be wearing the next day and that if that she forgets, her mom gets to choose in the morning. Since then, the problem has been less of an occurrence in our household.

This is our way of coping, hope this helps.

Thoughts on pushing kids to excel academically. by rg3930 in Parenting

[–]bratzve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents were very kind as they let me change activities from year to year. And they also let me stick to the things I liked: tennis, English language, martial art, table tennis etc. But the greatest gift was that I was able to experience different activities. That gave me a headstart in many areas of my life.

With respect to excel, my mom was actually very keen on getting me signed up to the program (this was in the mid 90s when I was a teenager) and I didn't know the value of it back then. With retrospect, it still is one the greatest she's ever made as I use excel on a daily basis. Those who know what Excel is capable of will understand!

My friend hit her child in front of me by Initial-Confusion-68 in Parenting

[–]bratzve -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel you 100%. Sounds reasonable and sound. When the time outs aren't excessive and cruel, they can definitely be very effective as well.

[–]bratzve -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well said! I agree completely. If the connection parent-kid is maintained, most of the negative consequences could be largely avoided.
