A cat story in a mysterious world

It's a cat story that reminds me of my passed cat 10 years ago. and remember that my first post here was about   about a cat also  I had a good cat who was so kind and lived in the village; I had moved to a city, I left my cat with my family but someone killed him. I did not know why they did it, and I still don't know how people dare do such tough murders like that. I was very sad about my cat because I had lived stories with him, memories.

Monkeypox.. what's the story?

A new virus called monkeypox has emerged in recent weeks and has scared people, although scientists have downplayed its danger. Humans did not emerge from the repercussions of Covid until monkeypox appeared, so what is its story? The World Health Organization announced on Sunday that it had reported 780 laboratory-confirmed monkeypox cases in 27 countries outside the countries where the disease is endemic, but confirmed that the global risk level is still moderate. The organization suggested that this outcome, which was recorded between the previous May 13 and the second of June, is less than the actual number, given that epidemiological and laboratory information is limited. "It is very likely that other countries will discover cases and the virus will spread further," the organization said. Only a few cases of recorded injuries required the transfer of the injured to hospitals, as well as patients who are subject to health isolation. The World Health Organization listed the...

  I had a beautiful experience in the time of Corona, when I decided to spend five days in one of the small hotels in the High Atlas, specifically in a beautiful area called Wirgan. Wirgan  is a village among the High Atlas Mountains, 60 kilometers south of Marrakesh, on the way to Ouarzazate. The views of forests, towering mountains and dams are wonderful, tempting hiking, among the mountains, reading books and meditating as well.  Safety is guaranteed here, especially as the people are very kind and very friendly, greeting you as you pass by or asking them when you go wrong. There are many motels in the area, and there are also three famous hotels classified within the five-star hotels, one of which is owned by British billionaire Richard Branson.  In the afternoon, at the end of the week, I arrived at the Diwan Hotel, which is a small and beautiful motel, with very friendly and helpful owners, and the food is authentic Moroccan food, cooked by the Moroccan fam...

The stage of living with Corona virus in Morocco

                                    Image expressive Morocco has entered a new and unprecedented phase in its confrontation with the emerging Corona virus, after the total number of confirmed cases in the Kingdom exceeded the 100,000 cases.  I have personally noticed that people are no longer afraid of virus  as it was in last March possibly because they have become accustomed to the virus and its daily news.  These numbers were not expected by anyone last March, and the worst expectations were 10 thousand cases in the third stage, but the foci and subsequent developments raised the numbers in an unprecedented way.    However, this increase in the number of cases is accompanied by a calm among some citizens, who are no longer afraid of injuries as it was in the past, which is a strange paradox.   Have Moroccans actually entered the stage of living with the virus, or is...

In Casablanca, the largest city in Morocco, the derby day is dominated by two colors with no third, green, which is the color of RAJA, and red, which is the color of widad. The confrontations between two teams are historical. Al-Ahmar  red team was established in 1947, and the Green team was established in 1949, and they are two ancient teams in Morocco. They have a long history of playing, titles and championships, and they are the most famous teams in Morocco and the Arab world. But in this post I will not talk much about football as a game and about confrontation on the field, but I will talk about confrontation in the stands between fans, where the amount of creativity and mess...

Casablanca ... catch a bus if you can!

Wahid rushes to take a bus to the famous Shark district in the far-end of Casablanca after completing his studies in the evening, hoping to get up early to see the bus, which may be delayed and delayed in the lesson. Wahid is a university student suffering from a public transport crisis in the center of Casablanca, Morocco's largest city, due to traffic and a lack of buses. Rachida is also suffering because of the transport crisis. She is married and has children living in Mohammedia and works in Casablanca, where she spends more than two hours on public transport. Rachida and Wahid are just among the thousands who suffer from old green buses that barely meet the needs of the big city. Although the tramway has slightly reduced the crisis, transport in Casablanca is a major dilemma, especially for those who live far away in areas that are not connected by the tramway. The suffering of the Ovalans with transport will continue to the next year, with the sufferi...

The shock of the "African cup" ​​.. When Moroccans can rejoice in the World Cup ?!

The question seems strange, but we have the right to ask it to  the officials of thefootball in the country. As long as the setbacks have accompanied us for decades over the national team, I try in this article to give my opinion impartially, as a citizen to copmare our  with other teams,, and it is my right as a spectator to ask questions and answer from the officials . Since 1976, the orphan cup has been moved by the tongues and its analysis here and there until the man became more shy than some of those who boast of the presence of a football team that can make the difference and our self-esteem is very weak and we rejoice in trivial things. Personally I drank the shock in 2004 in the African Cup final in Tunisia when the local coach, Badou Zaki, led the lions to the end of the cup and was on his way to a second cup but for the strange end he did not. He could have had another chance, which has not happened, since that game seemed to be something we lacke...
