To the man that i will never meetOn the 26th of June, the world have lost another amazing Graphic Designer, and this designer may not be known to you, but I appreciate him so much. Here’s a little story of how I got to know him. I was still at uni back then, and I had a class with one of my favorite instructors, and in that class we were given a list of famous designers to do a research and present them in-front of the whole department. I was at his office with my bestfriend, and on that day I told him I d o not know who to choose from the list because I didnt know most of them. On that day I was wearing my favorite tshirt, I ❤️ NY. He typed a name on his screen, and asked me if I know who this person is, I said no. All what my instructor did was click on the images option on Google, and there it was. I’m not gonna lie I felt very ashamed of myself at that moment, to not know who the designer is, of the most recognizable slogan on earth, I <3 NY the T-shirt I was wearing brought me to shame, but thanks to my instructor and thanks to that shame, it brought enlightened to me and introduced me to, Milton Glaser. I did a whole research and a presentation about him, not only that though. Even Robb Janoff, the designer of the apple logo, called me by the name of the hoodie that I was wearing, which obviously was I ❤️ NY. He even had the chance to meet him once, how did I know? yea I asked him that question. I got to make some online friends through my xboxb, that we always game together. When I got to know that they are from NY, first thing I told them of course my dream is it visit, and if I had the chance of ever meeting Milton Glasor. The chance now is gone Milton, I will never meet you. I swear to God it was just a coincidence that I was wearing the I ❤️ NY T-shirt the day of your death, but I believe it was fate/ or destiny because you meant a lot to me. Thank you Instructor Shahrayar for giving me the honor of representing him. This is just a tribute to you, to the man who inspires me, to the man who did simple thing matter, to the man who believed. Thank You Milton. Copyright: © 2014 Catalina Kulczar

BELIEFA lot of people tend to forget this, due to personal crises issues, is what I think. For me, I see this factor as a significant factor in life, and to be honest, it’s tough to please, but simple things like belief are essential. Religion is what I want to talk about. Hold down your horses though; I’m not going to talk about Islam or make any comparison between Abrahamic religions. The talk is all about believing in God’s existence, believing in your heart and soul, the higher power that even though we can’t see, but we can feel. Soul Heart Brain Body Are the main things here, even though 3 of them are physical, yet one of them is something that we can’t see, but we can feel. I may look religious, I may sound religion, but I see myself as not. “ Too halal for haram people, to haram for halal people.” I bet you read this somewhere here or there. For some reason, since I’ve been young, I always tend to be more comfortable to sit with people who believe in God’s existence, even if they follow a different religion or no religion at all. The whole beliefe just gives relief in my heart, and that what always makes me move forward. The soul is a very dark matter, it’s like there, but you can’t see it, yet you can feel it. You could tell if someone has a kind soul deep down in them, or not. No matter how much differences we might have, yet when the soul connects, that’s everything you need. “Always follow your heart.” Isn’t that something we always hear? But what if our hearts are not connected? What if the brain, heart, soul, and body, do not connect with each other? Each one of them acts on its own? Isn’t that something we somehow all suffer from? That's when for me, the thought of God’s existence gives me solitude. How about you? Photo courtesy of Asma Haddad ©
