5 Things I Hate Most in the Facts of Life

1. I hate the fact that we were created by one 'God', as most religions say, yet we are different by race, skin color, and beliefs. Hence, the wars here and there.

2. I hate the fact that in the middle east, Caucasians are more respected and regarded than Asians. Hence, you'd meet a CEO who is a Highschool graduate and British, and a clerk who is a licensed Engineer and Indian.

3. I hate the fact that men can choose their wife but not vise versa. It's alright for guys to pursue a girl but a girl who pursues a guy is considered a taboo.

4. I hate the fact that an interracial couple (especially a Caucasian guy and an Asian girl) walking in a mall always gets a curious, if not judging, glares from other people. In which book of law did it say that an american guy should only marry an american girl and a Chinese guy should only marry a Chinese girl?

5. I hate the fact that we may exist today yet we may just die tomorrow.

I agree with Nafisah.

Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

I agree on points 2,3,and 4. Here, its not what you know, but who you know and the color of your skin (by the way, I am chicken white) I dont agree that the color of a person skin makes them 'better' or 'more qualified' for the position.

On point number 3. The first wife of our beloved Prophet (SAWS) asked him to marry her! So that knocks that taboo out the water.

And 4, Allah made us all in different shades and colors, nations and tribes so that we may know one another not kill one another or discriminate against one another or not marry someone because they are from some place else. Maybe arabic nigtingale, we are idealists having to survive in this harsh reality?

the world is full of test and god always test us in different ways of life.

why we are created different ???

this is also a test so that god wants to see how u treat a person who is black or how u treat a person who is white do we treat them equally???

this is fact whether u like it or not this is world and this is life

even we regret a lot of things in life but we cant change it
