Flew Emirates

and sorry to say , but the airlines is not a shadow of what One would hav expected seeing there ad's

Ok food

untrained staff

staff mostly, grumpy and unsmiling

lack of service on all front

quiet frugal

No- the grandiur of the Muslims was missing,

so was the bigheartedness of muslims missing.

just a cheap airlines with glitzy Ad's
Overall, boring

My experiance with a-one transporters

How can it be so easy to lie ,
to lie in the name of ones god
to lie to everyone xconserned
to lie on name of all concerned

how low can one sink?

karma is at work, everytime you lie it is adding up, n u will pay for a major part of it in this life itself, in the form of Diseases, relationships , what life hands out to you ,

Dont use the WHY ME , line, you acted it and now u are getting the fruits.

Most chat seems to be about



What could have been, what chances were missed, what mistakes were made?
(Things on the past that one can do nothing about)
Or

What will happen, scary things that might happen, problems that might happen?
Difficulties that may arise.
(Scared of future)

What about the present I ask?
Better to be quiet and meditate, me thinks ;)
