...about people 'passing days' and 'killing time' here in Doha. I think they should utilize their time to plan and reflect. Doha is also an excellent place to do what you like the best. Develop a

hobby and persue it. It offers you plenty of time and money to do things which one would not normally do in their base countries.

Remember we came to work,earn money and go back home....

BOREDOM is part of living here bcoz we still prefer our home sweet home....where our folks are there...but what to do....!

To combat boredom make some friends...make yourself busy with clean & healthy hobbies....

We cannot eliminate boredom & homesickness but we can find ways to alleviate it...

To be happy, do not add to your possessions, but subtract from your desires.

Happiness is a grateful spirit, an optimistic attitude, and a heart full of love.

Actually, I'm hardly ever bored. I always find something to do. If I finish a particular project, I move on to the next. Have so many interests. I guess having a lot of friends helps too, broadens one's mind... there's no end to learning new things! Life is fun! :0)

Hmm.. I don't have to try hard to be happy. I am home wherever I am, and therefore, a happy camper :0)

Any difficulty is surmountable with courage, hard work and perseverance.

Happiness? - Hmm, am safe, well paid, have some nice friends, learn something new everyday, and what I left behind can be lived without for at least a time... maybe I should ask for more but pretty simple set of needs, I guess.
