Inner Beauty, True Happiness, and the Freedom to Be Yourself"

-

 My friend reminded me that true love and happiness come from inner beauty—it is skin deep, beneath the surface, in your heart ❤️. A person’s appearance is never enough to judge them. I am asking society to stop playing games and overusing social media. People are in control of their own happiness, and I know I don’t need anything else. I will find someone who loves me for who I am. I am happy, I have a wonderful life, and I love writing. I don’t need to compare myself to others through social media.


No one should have to compare their happiness to others because it prevents true satisfaction with their own lives. Social media creates unrealistic expectations of success and happiness. Many people, especially children, have become addicted to technology, struggling to focus on learning basic skills because of constant screen use. We must remember that most people live in circumstances far more difficult than ours—such as those in Palestine, Syria, and other places where people are homeless and struggling just to survive.


Society needs to stop this constant comparison. Life is not a competition. Everyone should be grateful for what they have. Each individual is unique, capable, independent, and caring. We can achieve our dreams in our own time. I remind myself daily that I don’t need to compare my life to anyone else’s. Social media often shows only what people want others to see. No one’s life is perfect, and only Allah knows the challenges each of us faces. True happiness comes from within, not from comparing ourselves to impossible social media standards. You are perfect just as you are.


Children, in particular, are being affected by this addiction to technology. Too many young children are exposed to screens instead of exploring the world, playing outside, and developing social skills. It breaks my heart to see parents giving children devices just to quiet them down. Children are meant to interact with their environment, friends, and nature—not just technology. This overexposure can harm their education, attention, and development. We need to stop this cycle and help children grow naturally and healthily.


I also have empathy for those with disabilities and anyone striving to discover the power of their own voice. I want to help individuals use their voice to communicate their experiences peacefully, to raise awareness, and advocate for themselves. Every person has a voice—our most valuable resource—that can never be taken away. As a social worker, I will encourage my clients to use their voices and passions to create meaningful outlets for self-expression and advocacy.


My passion for writing has greatly influenced my interest in social work. Writing helps me express myself, manage my frustrations, and build patience, authenticity, dedication, and confidence. Through my heartfelt blog, The Shining Star, I advocate, inform, and educate my readers on issues that matter to me—such as educational inequality, gender roles, media representation, Syrian refugees, and more. Writing allows me to observe the world, advocate for myself and others, and use my voice to inspire positive change.


As a social worker, I will help my clients find their voices and feel comfortable sharing their experiences. I will teach them to advocate independently, just as writing has taught me to share mine. Every person has the ability to make a difference when they use their voice with courage

  Islamophobia Adds to he Syrian Refugee Crisis  Racism has been reflected in discriminatory laws, practices, and actions (including violence) against racial or ethnic groups throughout the history of the United States. Since the early colonial era, White Americans have generally enjoyed legally or socially-sanctioned privileges and rights that have been denied to members of various ethnic or minority groups. European Americans have enjoyed advantages in matters of citizenship, criminal procedure, education, immigration, land acquisition, and voting rights. Before 1865, most African Americans were enslaved; since the abolition of slavery, they have faced severe restrictions on their political, social, and economic freedoms. Native Americans have suffered genocide, forced removals, and massacres, and they continue to face discrimination. European Americans, Hispanics, Middle Eastern, and Asian Americans, along with Pacific Islanders, have also been the victims of discrimination...

 your passion intact while improving clarity, structure, and impact: --- # **Stop the Genocide in Palestine** The world must wake up to the genocide happening in Palestine. Israel is not the victim in this conflict—the Palestinian people are suffering daily under occupation, oppression, and relentless attacks. Yet, the media distorts the truth, painting Palestinians as terrorists while portraying Israel as the oppressed. This pattern reflects a larger issue: the media's reluctance to show the suffering of non-white populations and its role in reinforcing racist stereotypes. The media rarely gives full coverage to the struggles of marginalized communities—whether Native Americans, Chinese, Italian immigrants, African Americans, people with disabilities, or women, especially Muslim women. Stories of oppression and resistance from these groups are often ignored, manipulated, or framed in ways that dehumanize them. This systemic bias allows injustices, like the current massacre in Pale...

 Educational Inequality for Refugees and Orphans in Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, and Sudan: A Sociological Imagination Perspective  Introduction Education is a fundamental human right and a cornerstone of any developed society. Yet, for millions of displaced children around the world—especially refugees and orphans in Palestine, Syria, Lebanon, and Sudan—this right is consistently denied. These children face complex, intersecting barriers that prevent them from accessing quality education. Sociologist C. Wright Mills’ concept of the sociological imagination provides a critical framework for understanding how personal hardships—such as a child not attending school—are deeply connected to larger social forces like war, poverty, systemic racism, and political neglect. Thesis: Through the lens of the sociological imagination, we can better understand the educational inequalities faced by refugees and orphans in the Middle East and North Africa by examining how structural factors suc...
