About me

Hi.

My name is Adrian and I am living in Canada for some time. I am over 40 and deeply in love with my wife. Together we have a beautiful and smart daughter.

I like classic and country music and when I have time, I like to read science fiction books. Soccer and formula 1 are the sports that I follow most intensely. I am a big fan of Survivor and Amazing Race. Disney World Resort from Florida is my favorite vacation place.

I have not, nor claim to have, special skills in the writing. But here, I have no choice. I have to express myself in writing. So you will have to read and if I entertain you and you will enjoy to read on here, then my goal will be achieved. That mean that we enjoy together. So keep reading!

Please come in, browse, read and write me what you think.

Hello Adrian,

I am glad to see your kind feedback and comments on my Blog.
I think for expressing our thoughts and feelings we don’t have to be a perfect writer. When it comes from heart it impacts positively on reader.
I am also not a writer and English is not my mother tongue but i still write what comes into my mind. 🙂 I don’t even bother the grammatical mistakes so much but that doesn’t mean i don’t want to improve and learn.

Anyway.. Glad to meet you
May Allah bless you, your wife and daughter .ameen

Adrian, would you mind if I quote your recent comment on my post ‘Tis the Season? I’d like to write a post on HarsH ReaLiTy on the subject of the craziness of the Christmas season, and your comment really touched on the definition of how people transform. If it’s okay with you, I’ll also put a link in my post to your blog. HarsH ReaLiTy has almost 30,000 followers, so you’ll probably get a few hits on your site.
Please let me know if it’s okay.
Thanks,
Linda
