Around eight hours to go. This time around, the community management has thankfully not organized a year-end party, well, right outside my house. So I can decide if this will be a long night, or not. How was 2025? Well, fast, for one. Business-wise, we did great, more than doubled our team, lots of new …

We visited the recently renovated Dino Park and Glow Garden yesterday. The traffic was horrendous, but the visit was worth it. They have now added more ‘active’ Dinos that the kids absolutely love – they shout and scream and finally get around to touch the monsters, realizing that well, they are not the real deal. …

His theory explains what it means when these parts are congruent or incongruent with reality, which impacts your self-concept. Rogers described the self-concept as being composed of three parts: Ideal self: The ideal self is the person you want …
So I went to the Hindu temple today at Jebel Ali, to perform a puja for my new car. After long actually – not the car…the visit. It was a pleasant atmosphere, some Vedic chanting on one side, a couple of families perfuming puja on the other. A few people sitting in the middle and …
