“I really love the great outdoors, so going for long walks is something I enjoy doing on a regular basis. The one walk that really stands out was actually a spur of the moment idea that turned into a much longer walk than I expected.  It was sometime last March, and the weather was absolutely perfect for some outdoor adventure. 




There's a beautiful national park only a stone's throw from where I live, that is very secluded and a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. The park is full of tracks and trails that go through the jungle, as well as a small  mountain, which is famous for its wild monkeys and other wildlife.




As it was a spur of the  moment decision I decided to go alone, and set off about 6am, as the route I took was really off the beaten track, and was not going to be a walk in the park. Looking at the distance on google maps, I guessed it would take me about 3 hours to complete, but I hit a few snags along the way. The first track I took was completely overgrown, and slowed me down to a snail's crawl, and it took me almost 2 hours longer than I expected to reach the mountain.By the time I reached the mountain I was already dead tired and I remember I had to spend some time sitting under the shade of the trees to catch my breath, and decided the best thing to do was call it a day, and make my way back. It was also now getting very hot, and i was already covered in sweat, which was going to make the walk back even harder.




Although the walk was totally exhausting, and left me dead on my feet, I did in fact enjoy most of it, especially the beautiful scenery, and the feeling of being at one with nature. However , I think next time I should maybe  plan my route a little better, and be better prepared.




Thank you …”

Describe a long walk you had

الوقت أَقْوَى سِلَاح بِحَيَاتْنَا وكِلْشِي بْيِعْتِمِد على الوقت.
Time is the strongest weapon in our life and everything depends on the time.
مَثَلًا العَادَات المْنِيحَة بِتْطَوِّر الإِنْسَان كتير بَس بْتِحْتَاج وَقت
For example, good habits improve the person a lot but they need time.
بَس للأَسَف, أغلب الشَبَاب مَا بْيِدْرِكُوا قِيمِة الوَقْت إلَّا لَعِمِر مِتْأَخِّر.
But unfortunately, most men do not realize the value of time until a later age.
و بْكُونوا ضَيَّعُوا كْتِير أَشْيَاء بِحَيَاتْهُم ﻷنو قَضُّوا حَيَاتْهُم المَاضْيِة بِإِهْتِمَامَات تَافْهَة.
And they would have wasted many things in their lives because they spent their past lives with trivial concerns.
العمر قَصِير واليوم اللي رَاح مَا رَح يِرْجَع.
Life is short and the day that is gone will never come back.
مْشَان هَيك, اللي بِيفْهَم قِيمِة الوَقْت مْنِيح رَح يَعْرِف يِسْتَغِل حَيَاتُو بْشَكِل صَحِيح
Therefore, whoever understands the value of time well knows how to use his life in the right way.

الوقت / Time ⌛

Transport company Uber has announced a new service that could make it cheaper for people in the US to travel to and from the airport and other popular places.

It's called Uber Shuttle — and it's really just a bus service offered by the company.

"Whether you're a traveler, sports fan, or concertgoer, get ready because Uber Shuttle is arriving soon," said Uber's Anthony le Roux when the news was announced in the middle of May.

Uber users will be able to book up to five seats on a shuttle service to big events and airports from a central place.

It might be useful if you're at a big, out-of-town concert and there aren't enough regular Ubers or taxis, for example.

Uber's shuttles will have between 14 and 55 seats, and people will be able to book up to a week before they travel.

The company says the cost of the shuttle will be "a fraction" of the price of a regular Uber.

In one example Uber gave during the announcement, the price of the shuttle was about one-third of the price of a regular Uber.

The shuttle, which has previously been tested in India, will be available in some US cities this summer to help people travel to and from events.

As for airports, Uber has not yet said which ones the shuttle will be available at.

When it is available, users will see the shuttle as an option in their apps, and they'll be able to rate and tip shuttle drivers just like regular Uber car drivers.
