TAKING HIMSELF/HERSELF AS CLEVER (English translation below) // KENDİNİ AKILLI SANMAK
Here is my ninth column at Yasamburada.com // Yasamburada.com 'daki dokuzuncu köşe yazım
http://www.yasamburada.com/kendini-akilli-sanmak
Just to be seen popular, insisting on being friends with someone who is so different than himself/herself. Even sometimes taking that disgusting person so serious, getting blind by him/her and lying to beautiful family.. Admiring that ugly person’s life, his/her fake adventure stories, being hunted to be as disgusting and tricky like that person; on the other hand looking for pure love. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else.
Taking himself/herself as popular but being a scarecrow instead.. Sleeping with everyone but guarding that his/her life is a super life.. Trying to blur married couples’ brains with 18+ videos but personally not being able to have physical or emotional satisfaction. Being miserable, on the other hand lowering innocent people. Having good amount of money but living from others things for free, eating everything in their refrigerators for free, later talking bad about their wives/husbands to show he/she is the best friend.. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else.
Not keeping ethics of politics, saying ‘peace’ in the country but talking about ‘inner war’ when abroad. Saying “I’ll shoot, kill with Kalashnikovs” in the country but when abroad, giving speeches like “It’s genocide, there’s war, come and help us”. Walking around in a shirt and having a big belly. Gathering donations, liquidizing sympathy and money to the terror organization against the country. Thinking he/she will be liked with two jokes and his/her musical instrument but not being able to set up two political sentences together as an educated person. Having zero vision.. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else.
Being a manager running from party to party and having hangover at workplace in the mornings.. To be seen as a good manager, delivering promises to workers but not looking at any of them right after work hours. Having greed for a rise, using same-greed workers physically with their position’s advantage. At the end, rising but dying alone in that high (!) chair.. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else.
Getting fury and being in ambition to pass everyone in wealth but having no cultivation. Being easy women thinking they are the desired ones, still not getting it’s being phsysically used the next day. Entertaining people by making them drunk. Driving the car fast in security line of the road. Making milk or beer more by adding water. Evaluating farmers’ products less or paying less to them. Using sand in building constructions. Being ‘two costumes, thick make up’ singer. Taking being pretty/fine looking as being an actor. Investing on equipments but not being able to shoot a good movie/tv programme. Talking for hours but not being able to tell anything. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else.
They say ”Everything is fine”, that is what taking himself/herself as clever. Everything goes fine; never thinking on what is wrong or right.. Until an opposition occurs.. Feeling pity for himself/herself not to feel pity for anyone else. This is what taking himself/herself as clever..

My seventeenth column at Modatava.com "PROFESSIONS HAVE TRENDS" (English translation below)
// Modatava.com'daki onyedinci köşe yazım "MESLEKLERİN TRENDLERİ VAR"
http://modatava.com/mesleklerin-trendleri-var-3182
I look at countries generally, half of the populations are working for media, most of other half is human resources and countries are full of jobless people.. I say, “So, the other half is not working for each other”. Then I look at close environment; the people who work in the places we go in the daily life; bank officers, sales people, people producing things on the supermarket shelves.. When I see products, I stare strongly at one group of products; food and baverage. Fruits, vegetables, grains. They are there with so little amount, right? Food is little and there are not so many producers. That’s why food is expensive. The structure of all countries are same. There are no agriculture people! There is no food! The food that exists is expensive! Why there’s no farmer? Why there’s no one doing the most necessary professions??
There is a farming type now - ‘organic farming’ as the talk of the town. How nice there is! Wish it could exist widely.. Wish everyone who have opportunities could do farming..
There’s no need to deny; it’s so obvious. Professions have trends. Determinate professions get popular and youngsters want to have their educations on them after high school. On the other hand, someone with some wealth gets bored sitting at home and jumps to a proffession rising in trends; gets a short education on it or invests in that area without any education. Leave university education aside, the new enterpreneur says “What is certificate? I can handle this myself”. I laugh.
For the last 15 years, all professions around ‘media planet’ are trendy; acting, advertising, journalism, TV, do anything but be seen at TV announcement, directing, singing, playing football.. The second area close to media are secretly rising; fashion designing, jewelry designing, make up designing, hair dressing, accessories designing, investing for second hand shops.. In the third area, there are plastic surgents, dietary and nutrition experts, novel writers..
Also there are professions that are so important, so popular these days and you can’t do without education; construction engineering, food engineering, being pilot, defence ministry, biology, genetical engineering, physics engineering..
I’m not going to follow your expectations, I won’t analyze these professions. I will just say things about the trendy professions around ‘media planet’; why everyone ‘able’ or ‘not able’, ‘good on screen’ or ‘not good on screen’ are on TV? Many furious faces but they disappear in years.. It’s said that there is information pollution in internet, in fact there is face pollution on TV.. I again remember Andy Warhol’s quote, "In the future, everyone will be world-famous for 15 minutes".. After that, it is a heartbreak, no income, turning back to the profession that they already had to at the very beginning..

WHAT IS LOVE? (English translation below) // AŞK NEDİR?
Here is my eighth column at Yasamburada.com // Yasamburada.com 'daki sekizinci köşe yazım
http://www.yasamburada.com/ask-nedir
You are right, I don’t know how far I can go. In fact, that’s why I am writing.. That’s why I anticipated to have ’True Love Movement // Gerçek Aşk Hareketi’ being founded by giving the idea. ( Temporary address: https://www.facebook.com/True-Love-Movement-Gerçek-Aşk-Har…/ )
Reminding love to fast food lives is a mission. Their aim to make the world ugly comes from being loveless. Can someone who hasn’t had real love, give real love to someone else?
True love should be told again and again.. Love should be reminded so the world can be more beautiful. It’s enough that greed is drowning humanity. These are all doing some beautiful things. True Love Movement is trying to say ”Human, with your greed, you forgot what true love is..”
You can’t have more, love is one. One person, only one name.. Only one person can be loved. Someone attempting to have more is not a lover but an ugly trickster. Delivering attention to take attention gets unvaluable.. On the other hand, true love fascinates being priceless because it can’t be solid; it’s not physical; it is soul..
It doesn’t hurt your soul; gets dissolved in your soul; nourishes your soul.. These days, Mehmet Erdem has a song ‘Can Pain Be Loved?’ If there’s pain, it’s not love. Love is not a game either; people who turn love into a toy, don’t know what they are doing. There can’t be games in true love. There’s no true love with winning losing, competing, making jealous, showing alternatives..
True love doesn’t consider ‘being advantageous’.There’s no winner or loser. It’s not egoist; egos tear love in pieces..
When you find it, it becomes your resource of life; like water, like air..
If your love is not with you; your breath gets cut off, also when your love is with you..
Love is not an ornament. Enters your life unexpectedly and becomes the value not to let you think of anything else..
It’s dreaming together; planning the future.
But love is not a firm. You can’t sell for money. You can’t buy with money. It can’t be used to rise or for carreer. That’s not love. It’s something that I can’t say here..
You know, fast food lives are ready to try anything saying ”There can be escapes, lies” . Even they can’t digest a lie everyday. Person who gets surrounded by fake love understands it and he/she can’t digest either. At last, surely one side goes away..
True love doesn’t have secrets. If something is hidden, then love is not honest. Then it is not true love either..
They also say ”there is fake love”. That’s not love, it’s wrong to call that love..
Maybe you’ve found this week’s column too romantic. Love is in fact romanticism.
Love is really loving someone..

My sixteenth column at Modatava.com " TRUE LOVE MOVEMENT" (English translation below)
// Modatava.com'daki onaltıncı köşe yazım "GERÇEK AŞK HAREKETİ"
http://modatava.com/gercek-ask-hareketi-3031
We were talking and wishing about true love to be fashionable again as it is somehow old fashioned and then.. A new movement is born; ’True Love Movement’. I’m happy being the creator of the idea and also witness of it being born. I’m hopeful. You know I always support good and right, so I’ll always be behind this subject. While the world is getting uglier, if we don’t continue telling about beautiful and valuable things, I’m afraid they won’t exist anymore.
Movement started opposing love seen as consumption material. Love has been randomized just like the other non-existing beautiful things. Love goes so far from the thoughts of spiritual leaders Buddha, Rumî, literature of well known names Schopenhauer, Goethe, Shakespeare, Ozdemir Asaf, Can Yucel, Edip Cansever, the way how love songs, romantic movies tell.. It has been broken into pieces. Sensualized. Beaten by hunger of satisfaction. Victim of greed. The value of true love in ugly seeing eyes, goes down, down, down like currencies.. Love doesn’t deserve any of these.
True Love Movement will bring love to light. It will tell about true love. If love is not told, mentioned, spread from ear to ear, how will you make new generations feel the individual love?
’Sex sells’ right? How can a person stop being brain washed, thinking sexualized and ’must be naked’ women at banners in internet, at posters in streets, on screen are beautiful; score stories heard from greedy environment are love stories? How can a child give real love to his/her parner when grown up, if the child never sees his/her parents holding hands, kissing each other with love? If new generation doesn’t read or get told about true love, how can you expect them to do anything and everything to protect true love?
So bittery.. So painful giving aches to heart.. Human doesn’t go after ’real’ beauties; admires plastic beauties that are later gained. Look at TV icons, puffy with silicon bags anywhere. Pop stars are without natural beauty, internet is full of plastic bodies and people with also fear of getting old.. How can someone who idealizes these, turn back to real life? Can’t. Today’s victims forget who they fell in love with, how they began to hold hands; same hands rise in the air to leave bruise marks on beloved ones’ bodies.
True Love Movement will ask men who see violence natural and turn psychological and physical violence into being invincible and ego satisfaction.. ”When you first met her, she was a woman like spring. She fell in love with you. She trusted you. She came closer to your warmth and under your wings. How could you think those bruise marks would look good on her?” ..Movement will also ask men turning violence into injuries and murder who don’t have any little piece of human love.. ”How could you hurt a defenceless woman? Instead of for loving and protecting, how could you use your several times bigger physical power on a slender body? How could you cover her beautiful smile, beautiful body with blood? How could you take her life? Are you God?”
Love, water, air, soil, nature, environment, humanity are slained. Wars, battles empower individual violence.. Somehow there are fighters for water, air, soil, nature, environment and humanity but how about love? For this reason, I say True Love Movement.. Facebook page is very newly founded, so the temporary link can be long; these days you can reach through here: https://www.facebook.com/True-Love-Movement-Gerçek-Aşk-Har…/ Or you can search like this on Facebook: True Love Movement // Gerçek Aşk Hareketi

PORTRAITS OF THREE BLONDE WOMEN (English translation below) // ÜÇ SARIŞIN KADININ PORTRESİ
Here is my seventh column at Yasamburada.com
// Yasamburada.com 'daki yedinci köşe yazım
http://www.yasamburada.com/uc-sarisin-kadinin-portresi
I had to write. I wanted to write this for a long time but couldn’t have the chance. None of the three women are my relatives. We know each other from work life and media. In between, only the Turk naturally blonde one is someone I can call ‘friend’ but I don’t think she evaluates me like this; not so important; important thing is me seeing her valuable. For me, all three are ‘hopeless cases’. The first one as natural blonde is given a barrier to appear as successful; second one as fake blonde is totally a degeneration of profession, wronging of employment and suicide of the company that employed her; finally third one as half natural blonde does the suicide to herself with her own work..
Yes. First one is Turk and naturally blonde. From outside, she looks crazy but inside, she is calm, tender and I guess she knows value of human. She was in United States for long years; had education there. She might have been born there too. She has her English language level as a native speaker. She comes from journalism. Her education is also on journalism so I can really call her colleague. She newly got married. Her last job was at a TV channel, an economics TV and she worked at foreign news department. She got tired so much; complaining about not having free time for her family; quitted the job. How could she have time for her family? A ‘power’ wanted her to start work at 06.00 a.m. every day to prepare the morning news. She was then back home before late afternoon but how could someone take this? Think, at what time she had to wake up to be at work at 06.00 in the morning and for this, what time she had to go to bed? In the evening hours, that all normal people could socialize, rest, read a book, have time for hobbies, she could hardly start to sleep. I know, you’ll say “Life can make you work in worse conditions” but they evaluated this educated, native speaker, intellectual person in a condition to make her intellectual side grated. As I told before, she later quitted.. This qualified woman is now a housewife! At least she has time for her family and she is happy with this.. I don’t have anything to say for those absent minded people seeing her suitable to be a housewife!
Second one is a fake blonde, not even blonde - a kind of so ugly light brown turning into platin. Since the first time we met, I’ve thought, her nose didn’t become more beautiful and looked like the famous caricature character ’Deli Ziya’ despite having plastic surgery. I don’t like criticizing beauty but I am against ‘pushed’ beauties with plastic surgery - deeply against those who try to pass naturally beautiful people with that ‘pushed’ plastic surgery! This fake blonde has been swimming in money with her high level job. She also often travels abroad. Is she successful? Not. She can’t even be the nail of the natural blonde.. Her English is fair. She went to a language course by our criticizations and made her language better; as you can guess, only shown beter on certificate. Don’t be tricked by seeing her sentences in English in social media, she copies and pastes them. From the name of the famous key speaker of a conference, to the city she is in, shesurely writes the names wrongly; this even became a signature of her. Her university diploma is not from the areas she has been working in. In this condition (!) she thinks she’s so promising in this service sector. While marketing some things - this new company is said to be selling B2B service packages - it looks blurry that they might really be selling. Oh, if they put a profit chart starting from the foundation day of the company, of course they are having 500 % profit; little activities can give big profits when you start from zero..This fake blonde has been sharing her worse than worse ‘selfies’. The breaking point of this whole text is, that natural blonde just wrote a great compliment under one those pictures. I thought, thought.. Coudn’t go out of this problem. I’m talking to her now, you solve it: “My naturally blonde friend, you - with your native English from United States and journalism diploma - are made to sit at home. No one asks ‘Come, let’s work together, you can do great job’ to you; forget asking, doesn’t even say. Fake blonde shakes her back to you sitting at home; having your hair done at hairdresser to sit at home as housewife. So why do you type a compliment under her picture?? If you think she will feel sympathy for you and employ you, my opinion is, she will be afraid of you passing her in success, this will never happen.”
And third blonde is from United States and half naturally blonde - hair is natural but eyebrows are dyed in platin-. Her choice. This freelancer has an income in between those two blonde women. If she wanted, she would be more successful but has been living a routine-based and soulless life; I guess she will die like this.. In her province, she has recognized amount of graphics design clients but somehow she doesn’t employ anyone to work together; living a life of misery by working too much. Does she have time for herself? It’s hard to count as hobby; takes photographs of her environment hundreds of times. She always gets shocked in the same way when she sees interesting things and rains the pictures to social media. This must be ‘the madness of designer’. I guess her each day is like this: Work project, sleeplessness, a little worse nutrition habit, taking photographs of the paint-worn out walls, funny food packages and shop signs in the region, sleeping.. She can see as many patterns and colours as she wants.. Her inside is colourless and soulless.. I don’t think being creative is observing the ones existing, I say “Creativity is creating from zero”..

My fifteenth column at Modatava.com " INSINCERE NEW YEAR WISHES" (English translation below)
// Modatava.com'daki onbeşinci köşe yazım "İÇTEN OLMAYAN YENİ YIL DİLEKLERİ"
http://modatava.com/icten-olmayan-yeni-yil-dilekleri-2803
We’ve entered the new year. While spreading insincere new year wishes, we’ve in fact wished for ourselves most. How selfish we are, aren’t we? All of us have expectancies from new year but first of all we don’t see new year has expectancies from us..
We wish happiness for ourselves. What kind of happiness is this? Only making (me) us happy one? What if that one while making (me) us happy, will crash others’ rights, then should we still be happy? And is happiness ”I’ll be happy when I have so much money”? - Why not others can have properties too? Or is fame happiness? If you are going to be unsuccessful, weak fame, why should you be famous? Also you will be unhappy like this too. People wishing marriage, relationship not to be alone and expecting happiness, be sure, if the person you meet is not soulmate/same vision person; neither marriage, nor relationship will bring happiness.. I haven’t forgotton unbelievable ’third person’ people, who are keen on making partners of couples cheat on each other, tricky, wishing to be happy getting drowned by gifts bought by taken partner/lover of someone else: Maybe they will have an illusional happiness inside after destroying the couple’s happiness, but, they will never ever make that destroyed partner happy; that partner coming from destroyed marriage won’t be made happy won’t stay with them forever - don’t they know this?
We wish peace for world, right? So, are we trying to stop terror? Oh, terror side wishes to be happy too, what will happen now? Staring at other people’s country, trying to take a part of that country by terror and violence, that happiness is a short time one too. ”Why?” you ask. In the saying ’taken’ country, won’t be looked after in the same value it had; that country won’t be as beautiful as it was; will be ugly just like them - don’t they know this?
We wish health. Are we taking good care of ourselves first? Are we eating little and soberly? Consuming enough water? How is our vitamin D level? Or blood sugar? Or exercise, walks? Let’s say we are healthy and we wish for it to go on, while lively lively wishing for health, for a very close one, maybe for our ill relative, are we praying, wishing health? Are we able to say ”She/He needs this wish more”? How about doing something to be her/his health, medicine? Maybe the wish of her/him will come true by our solutions, then why don’t we solve things? If we did, her/his wish would come true already: You could bring both health and happiness for someone! And you became happy when she/he became happy. So your wish for happiness came true already too, right?
And we wish success first for ourselves again.. For instance a rise at workplace.. Let’s look at the mirror truely. Are we the people who have to rise, the ’true deservers’, or others deserve rises and we wish it for ourselves only to get happy? We also expect a car from the workplace.. Also a bonus salary.. Let’s say they gave them: Did we earn it by working or it was the success of the team? Are we going to share the bonus salary with the team? At least, are we going to buy a dinner for the team? Nooo in our plans, there are a secondary or third television and a set of furnitures, what is a team dinner (!)

WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN IN 2016 (English translation below)
// 2016’DA NELER OLMALI
Here is my sixth column at Yasamburada.com // Yasamburada.com 'daki altıncı köşe yazım:
http://www.yasamburada.com/2016da-neler-olmali
First of all you should read comparatively. Reading one sided texts makes you a fool bounded to that blindly. Internet is full of information and there are so many ‘scams’ (lies) in between, makes you wonder how they can make up this much. So are the books, previous generation habit..
They can change the history, past, names, heroes even the meal recipes. Why do you think they do it? To convince you to be on their side. To make you say “Aaaa if true, I love this so much” and get attached to them. I have seen so many people turning into fanatics not turning back to same subject again, just effected by one website or a book without questioning and researching,
It doesn’t matter in which country you are living in, eat clean. You haven’t heard wrong, ‘clean’! In which food what additives there are, what is cancerogen or not in packed food, drinks are great but how much sugar it has; consuming sugar drops your immunity immediately; know it. I’m not one of these saying “World is so crowded, population must be lessened, nothing will be enough for anyone in the future”. If the world is 6 billions of people now, I say it can handle 12 billions too. Only production is absent. If you empty the agricultural areas and rise the price of little amount of food , human will eat each other from starvation and poverty. But, if you create an ‘order’; employ everyone and maket hem produce, work with earth, you can even create excessive food for 12 billions.
Don’t be slave of your fears and worries. These two dirtbags, prevent you being happy ‘now’. They blur your mind and become sticks to turn you into puppet of others. Fear of losing job, fear of losing lover/darling/wife/husband, fear of losing money, fear of failing in investments, fear of unability to be someone that you are not, fear of dying, fear of war, fear of disease.. Each fear you make big in front of eyes first supports your enemies then it becoming true. Where is your brave chest, I want to see.. Huh, also, if you change your energy for fear into motivation energy, in fact, it will be so nice, then you will run towards your fear..
Personally, I hate ambition of luxury in anyone. Don’t be someone like this, it looks so ugly. If married mistress is luxury, telling/existing herself/himself with society or properties is luxury, going on vacation even though there is work/investments/workers is luxury, just because it will look poshy - bringing foreign scientists/photomodels/directors instead of your own country’s brilliant people to evaluate is luxury. Also, spending your time for absurd/ridiculous things instead of being with your child and supporting her/his development is luxury. It looks ugly and also you are evaluated as greedy and random; know it. Open your eyes in 2016

My fourteenth column at Modatava.com "WEAR HAT " (English translation below) http://modatava.com/sapka-giyin-2688
// Modatava.com'daki ondördüncü köşe yazım "ŞAPKA GİYİN" http://modatava.com/sapka-giyin-2688
Personally, I can say I’m crazy for it; maybe it is rude to say but I have a great amount of hats. I would like to remind people who perceive accessories contain only jewelry and belts. Hats are accessories too. Wear hat. While fashion is giving chance for that these days, have that opportunity. Don’t wear woolen hat in cold weather, also try winter cloth hats. 20s, 70s and 90s were the times hats were so often used in fashion and they are all back again.
When Ataturk did Hat Revolution, first one of his targets was spreading the foundation news of modern Republic of Turkiye symbolically and leaving all types of radical vision accessories behind. His second target was I suppose making everyone able to understand who is who with their duties. If you only think army and police forces have duty related hats, you are wrong. In 1920s, fedora hat (Humphrey Bogart hat) we all know, was known as journalist hat. Printing and type setting people, nurses, farmers, land owners had specific hats and after work, in daily life they didn’t hesitate to live their lives without taking them off. I think only politicians got known without using hats but it’s because they were indoors, in parliament and taken pictures in these places.
I don’t think it is shyness recently; I suppose due to negligence hat hasn’t been worn for a long time. It’s cold but no one wears anything on their heads. Are you one of those having worries of hair dresser hair will get destroyed, wig will fall off?
There are hats not worn even they have to be. Whenever I’m in Istanbul which has turned into a huge construction yard because of new buildings and I walk along streets, I see no one with a construction helmet. Can a construction helmet be expensive? Engineer, worker, visitor.. Everyone in construction yard has to wear a construction helmet. Even people passing from the front of that constructed building, through along that street which was thought the safety measurement was done by surrounding the area with four 3-meter wooden boards!
As we mention safety, for example why don’t motorcyclers wear helmet? Are they doing “Look I’m not dying like thiiiiiiiiiiiiis” to us? And do we say “Ah how coooool”? In fact, helmet makes the motorcycler cool. In between them, there are customized products. They are design products. They don’t wear them. I also saw many having a second passenger at behind and wearing helmets only themselves. Weird isn’t it? What if they face a truck as soon as they turn right from the next corner; pull down the motorcycle not to hit the truck and jump away; don’t they know their skull will be broken into pieces and they will die immediately there?

TURK KURD PKK ISIS (English translation below) // TÜRK KÜRT PKK IŞİD
Here is my fifth column at Yasamburada.com "TURK KURD PKK ISIS"
// Yasamburada.com 'daki beşinci köşe yazım "TÜRK KÜRT PKK IŞİD"
http://www.yasamburada.com/turk-kurt-pkk-isid
People who say ”Hurry help us”, ”Start a war, rescue us from Turkiye” are openly identified as PKK terror organization; but if you ask, they are on side of Kobane’ calling theirselves freedom fighters or ‘let’s walk hand in hand for peace’ type of people.. What Kobane (!) couldn’t have been rescued from ISIS of only a village of people. While ISIS is going on their actions, PKK terror organization crying out for help, trying to put up a war and pull Turkiye into it, has created a new fight trend digging tunnel under village houses and making innocent people as human shields. While Turk soldier is cleaning PKK terror organization out of this like stones out of rice; fake pictures are flying on internet, so do the fake help cryers for Europe. They never skip their ‘victim’ paragraphs, flying high saying Turkiye is killing their Kurd citizens, doing genocide, it could be Armenian genocide and now for Kurds(!). Turkiye doesn’t kill their Kurd citizens; cleans PKK terror organization who is not wanted, hated and had enough of also by Kurds.
Turkiye Turks who came from Middle Asia, Turks still living there as Turk blooded countries’ Turks have always been on the side of peace. Otherwise, how could all different countries keep their ethnicities in Ottoman Empire? Sultans’ will to enlarge the empire is not so much related with the Turk rooted public.. Turks don’t attack until they get attacked and if they have to attack, they fight so well. Recently, there is the reality Armenia who has been teasing one of the Turk countries, Azerbaijan. Azerbaijan is not going to put up a war, don’t wait for it Armenia! In history, only China even after teasing and building Great Wall for escaping from the response, still shows respect to Turks and their warriors and doesn’t forget to glorify Turks. Open and read history. It’s not hard.
Let’s turn back to PKK terror organization being able to create lies in five different languages in social media. I don’t know what Turkiye will do next to clean these from internet. Starting with Europe, from Bangladesh to Japan, there are foreigners sharing fake, copy paste pictures but somehow not aware of who PKK is. Why? There is a lie of freedom fighter image seen everywhere and any conscientious left wing foreigner gets melted likely just seen a kitten and multiplies the lie information by sharing. I wonder, when you ask, can they find the places in the map where PKK terror organization has been shooting Turk public in their sleep for 40 years with their machine guns? What kind of jealousy is that on Turkiye?? If a country wanted to kill different ethnicity citizens, would they do it by three or five?? What Nazi Germany had done is for years, gathering and killing millions of innocent Jews - but you now drive your Volkswagen cars?? Anything happened to Germany’s image?? Then why are you crawling to pull Turkiye’s image down?? What jealousy is this? Oh, by the way, you know PKK militants don’t want to speak Turkce in Turkiye but when they immigrate to Europe they speak the language of the country they immigrated to fluently and don’t rebel yet (!) while having countries’ social benefits.
I got asked for this by many many people. I wrote this text for people asking from me this week. Telling about ISIS is a riddle; so is identifying them. Why do they trade women besides petrol? Why are their beards this black? If they are not there for religion then what are they there for? Their number is not seen so many, how could they achieve to spread 6 millions of Syrians to the world? Ask as many times as you want..

My thirteenth column at Modatava.com "NOT ‘TURKEY’; TURKIYE’S TRUE IMAGE " (English translation below) http://modatava.com/turkey-degil-turkiyenin-dogru-imaji-2537
// Modatava.com 'daki onüçüncü köşe yazım "TURKEY” DEĞİL; TÜRKİYE’NİN DOĞRU İMAJI" http://modatava.com/turkey-degil-turkiyenin-dogru-imaji-2537
Turkiye’s promotion is not well done and not well fought against ones damaging the image. The first question in my brain is; “When will our beautiful country be called ‘Turkiye’ in English instead of ‘Turkey’ “? And I always ask; “Why fashion photographers, Hollywood and tourists bring to their countries a picturized 17-millions-metropol Istanbul of only gypsy provinces and Arab tourists as Turks, leaving its skyscrapers behind? And why tourism companies only show Blue Mosque in their posters but skip Bosphorus with pleasure? Is Blue Mosque really the symbol of Istanbul? Why then it is Eiffel Tower for Paris and Big Ben for London but not a church? Whilst these mistakes give wrong image to Turkiye, what is the reason to be sentenced to tell truth to foreigners? Saying ”Turkiye Turks came from Middle Asia”; “Huns invading Europe (Hungary) and Etruscans in Italy are Turks”, ”There are still many Turk countries in Middle Asia”, ”We are not an Arab country” over and over and getting tired.. Oh also starting with Germany and France, so many western countries have millions of Arab rooted immigrant citizens but why Turkiye is to be mentioned as Arab country??
George Clooney and wife Amal Alamuddin were chosen as spokesperson to prove it happened you know; we also tried to tell there was no Armenian genocide. The truth is, while fighting on west in I. World War, Ottoman Empire was kept busy on east with Armenian attacks, so Armenians in Istanbul were made to immigrate to east. However a Hollywood star was more on news.. And this year, terror organizations are on a try of harassing Turk soldiers fighting against them by delivering fake information on internet and showing innocent public as victims. Terror organizations are calling foreign countries to help them in five languages through social media and tying to harden the fight against terror, put up a war, damage the image of Turkiye.
Right before the subject goes heavier, let’s make a long list of daily life details.. Again, tourists pose with fez as soon as they arrive in Istanbul. Surprisingly no one says “If you want to wear a Turk hat, pose with a calpac”. Why don’t same tourists know the one they look for as ”kebab” passed from Afghans; ”shisha, hookah” from Persians;”hammam” from Romans to Ottoman Empire lands? Not seeing Turkiye, they come without reading about the country they are going to visit. Or who doesn’t tell to them? Why do they say ”whirling dervishes” to semazens? Whirling people are not called dervishes. When will we tell cheese, yoghurt got spread to Anatolia, Europe and finally whole world with the migrations of Turks from Middle Asia? When? In Europe everyone calls white cheese as ”Greek feta cheese”! Although Turkiye is on the same parallel with Spain, Italy and Greece and also neighbor country of Greece, why do they get shocked hearing it has always snowed in Turkey? Talking about image and look, one more example, those telling Turks have thick moustaches, never mention that Middle Asian Turks and migrating Turks as Selchuks from Middle Asia had rare moustache and beard but long hair; the real ones having thick moustaches are Albanians and Persians. Also why Turkiye has especially palm trees in all squares of big cities? Palms are Turk trees or citizens are living in Sahara desert?

UNSAID THINGS STUCK IN THROAT AND TERROR (English translation below)
// SÖYLENEMEYENLERİN SÖYLENMEMESİ VE TERÖR
Here is my fourth column at Yasamburada.com // Yasamburada.com 'daki üçüncü köşe yazım
http://www.yasamburada.com/soylenemeyenlerin-soylenmemesi-ve-teror
There are so many problems and even disgusting things in the life. The most evil to do is destroying peace and also watching someone suffering from lack of peace is a sickness.. Person destroying peace can only see herself/himself better or higher by this way. A kind of daily life terrorism.. I will go in details..

Real terrorism is everywhere. Terrorists go on their actions with guns although they have said what they have said. Sometimes with a suicide bomber, sometimes using innocent public as human shields they lengthen the action longer and longer. Public watching all as a third eye and rising stress level, don’t know what to do and talk bad to each other and start to get ‘divided’. That’s why terrorists are called dividers. Reality and where the subject started are forgotten and all public get divided to sides. In fact the first target is making people lose their belief for the state. As a conclusion, terrorists get more than they do with physical action by making public sides as enemies. Meaning they get what they want by causing an echo and dividing.

Let’s turn back to daily life terror. The person, who gets annoyed of someone and wants to remove that person off, starts to harm little by little through a third person instead of arguing directly or saying “Go away, I can’t stand you”. Because using a weak chain third person is much easier, more torturing and more satisfying. The weak chain person is not a weak person but a silent and patient one standing the evilness. A ‘human’ with humanly responses, tolerating, getting sad, crying and not fake.. Heartless, cold blooded, thinking she/he is better or higher and clever but not in reality, can’t say unsaid things stuck in throat like “I can’t feel better or higher/my control on human person gets destroyed because of you”. And starts to poke bad sentences to the human person. This third person begins to get sad. Gets sad; can’t understand why; gets sad; asks himself/herself “why does she/he make me sad?”. And because he/she is a human, he/she can’t ask “why do you do this?” to the heartless person either. Gets sad, gets sad and gets burst to the one whom that heartless person doesn’t like. Mission gets accomplished. Sick person thinks all is done without using her/his own hands.

These kind of daily life terrorists can be read so quickly. You can understand from their stiffness. They are enormously joyful and fake. They don’t count other people’s opinions. Also you are probably not their only victims. I suggest communications in between all victims because you are the ones who can understand each other so well.
When it comes to real terrorists, let soldiers and police do their jobs. You keep your peace and show you have peace to the terrorist because soldiers and police are for your peace and they work for it and are ready to sacrifice their own lives.

Here is my twelfth column at Modatava.com "What Does Design Mean??!" (English translation below)
http://modatava.com/modacilar-birbirinin-kopyasi-sirinler-gibi-2356
// Modatava.com 'daki onikinci köşe yazım bu linkte "Dizayn Ne Demek??!"
http://modatava.com/modacilar-birbirinin-kopyasi-sirinler-gibi-2356
I’ve never thought I would tell about design like a lesson. Some people really force me to! Design is “originality”, if a company/fashion designer/brand sells something for 50 years with same look or little changes every year, this is not design, this is stereotyped style. Label doesn’t make the products design either; you should look whether the products are original or not.
I’m not going to give any name from here; I don’t want to be involved to a court either -they can be guilty and strong- a ceramic company pushes the same cups, bowls and for long long years people buy them too expensively under the sake of design. I wonder, as a corporate company not firing any worker, how did the unblushing sales representatives get old and give their last breaths telling products are ‘design’? Are they paying the copyright fee to the grand grandchildren of the man who created the design in the very first year?
A clothing company, two more uprisings. Friends, how can you tell 60’s balloon skirt or fedora hat (Humphrey Bogart hat) as “our new design/creation in our ‘this year’ collection”? The creative team, arts director in the advertising company, are you sleeping or you prefer to spread wrong expressions just because your client should feel glad and pay for the work? I don’t want to hypothese that you don’t know; simplest way, hire a consultant. If you know, don’t be silent. Suggest them as “sir, these are not new creations, revitalizations”, so what? Maybe you will have addition for enlightenment of their boss.
For bigger pieces of products, home goods, otomobile, yatch, camping equipments, many unscratchable/unburnable miracles are designed too. There are some people thinking ‘heavy’ design work starting with deciding what tree’s wood wanted for your dining room, how many legs it should have, how many kilos it can handle to carry, availability for indoor/outdoor usage and that long time single friends are called industrial products engineers. They design but bear with more than creating.
Also there are confusing expressions. Our glamour girl (!) is a pattern designer but she writes her profession headline as ‘designer’. Your profession is valuable too our glamour girl (!), you give life to dresses, sheets, swimming suits; if you can’t create interesting patterns none of them will be sold out. This, that can’t attend to pattern contests, only you can. Know and stand straight. Don’t call yourself designer again, OK?
Hmm not to leave out, I should mention own style of a designer. Friends, create a style for yourself, please. All of you are hipsters, all of you are mermaids! Why fashion environment is like Smurfs, copies of each other? Fed up seeing males with squared shirts folded up to elbows, females wearing needle heeled booties. Friends, have consultancy, it’s not bad to take advises from a ‘knowledgeable person’..

WHAT YOU SHOULDN’T DO TO YOUR CHILDREN-2 (English translation below) // ÇOCUKLARINIZA NE YAPMAMALISINIZ-2

After last week’s column, I got two e-mails and lots of messages. One of the e-mails was from a responsible mother and a law person, the other was from a teacher.. I decided to continue the subject one more time. While asking “How did this society turn into this?” in fact “What kind of mother/father did this child have?” should be asked. The traumas the child has had effects the future behavior. As a communications expert, I wish to list mistakes that I’ve observed. For further counseling, I can address you pedagogues, psychologists and psychiatrists. Maybe the best pedagogue I’ve ever known is my husband Morten
What You Shouldn’t Do To Your Children-2:
21. While you are making your children have baths, even though they are babies, never be naked. Don’t have baths together. While you are having bath/shower, don’t leave your door open.
22. Don’t make your children get married in so early ages. Even though they become teenagers so early, showing traditions as excuses, especially to remove a consuming person from the table, don’t make them get married. Cut down what you’re eating. Or go and work in an extra job.
23. Don’t compare your children with other people’s children and especially their own brothers/sisters. This won’t show the way to success, only will make them hate their own existences.
24. Don’t use your children for your crimes/sins. Don’t monitor an excuse of “I did it for you”.
25. Don’t be physically harsh on them; don’t do physical or emotional violence on them
26. Don’t make fun of their physical appearances.
27. Don’t call them with bad nicknames.
28. Don’t change their rooms as how you like them to look. Would you be happy if they changed your rooms?
29. Even at very little ages, teach them how to use phone and make them have first aid lessons. One day they can save their own lives or yours.
30. They shouldn’t live in a dreamy/blurry life; teach them awareness. So that, they can learn their home addresses and later more complicated things by observations while growing up.
31. Teach them whatever they can with their own hands. Like simple meal recipes, sewing, hammering nails, fishing. Maybe you may die the next day but you will be leaving something supporting their lives.
32. Take their opinions and also pay attention to them. Add them to family plans. They are the members of the family..
33. At least once a week do an activity of whole core family. Not a few of you, all core family.
34. Don’t interfere with their wearing too much. Let them have their own styles. Even though looks weird.
35. If they are at the school education period, don’t do their homework until they really are in emergency.
36. We talked about punishment last week; don’t reward them either. The most beautiful thing to make them happy is their mother’s/father’s interest and it can’t be measured materialistically.
37. Don’t be fake. Even in very early ages, children sense fakeness.
38. Influence them for reading and researching.
39. Influence them for love of nature, animals and clean environment.
40. Influence them to love arts.

Here is my eleventh column at Modatava.com "Modeling Agencies Afraid of Fame’s Shadow" (English translation below)
http://modatava.com/sohretin-golgesinden-korkan-mankenlik-ajanslari-2100
// Modatava.com 'daki onbirinci köşe yazım bu linkte "Şöhretin Gölgesinden Korkan Mankenlik Ajansları"
http://modatava.com/sohretin-golgesinden-korkan-mankenlik-ajanslari-2100
I have been full with this subject for a long time. In fact since my own high school years. At high school some of my friends and my relatives were saying I looked like Cindy Crawford. I was proud she was a beautiful woman. But with a classical philosophy I was asking ”Why her and not a Turk model?” Crawford created her own chance really, applied to Elite Model Look Agency; got in. And it is talked Zeki Triko gave her first big project. Even Zeki Baseskioglu opened a contest thinking there could be a Turk Cindy Crawford and I couldn’t attend. I was only at last year of high school..
Cindy Crawford introduced us L’Oreal’s Elseve shampoos. In time, her agency made her almost a brand. Whatever she touched, happened well… No one said ”She came from modeling, she can’t be anything” for what she did; couldn’t say. Her agency was always supporting. We have a Turk Cindy Crawford now; Tulin Sahin and I like her so much; we worked together in two different workplaces. She was born in Denmark, a good person and she has tried to develop herself. Even not having an agency support.
If you believe photographer stories taking pictures in free time and discovering a model, you are wrong. Since 80s, agencies from countries abroad have ‘agents’. If needed, they walk streets by streets and take pictures. They look for unique, different faces. And hundred percent without plastic surgery. The faults from natural beauty are accepted and liked. In result, someone drowning himself/herself to plastic surgery can leave you in the middle of the road by not being confident and gives suspicion about mental health. Catwalk requires more stronger base than needed. Especially night life, bad habits finish the model with weaknesses. Both personality and appearance..
Let’s have a look at modeling agencies in Turkiye. So few of them create a ‘branded’ model; being afraid of his/her fame. Return the projects; being afraid of his/her fame. Gives less percentage of the income to the model saying shouldn’t be spoiled; being afraid of his/her fame. Why people, who can’t digest these, found modeling agencies? Why they follow business connections with dear, sweetie languages? Why former models with knowledge and experience don’t want to found modeling agencies? For instance, I’ve learnt that Ilgi Govsa began to do brand consultancy. Communications experts hear it.. I don’t want to pass without appreciating names coming from modeling (in picture); Demet Akalin, Selma Ergec, Serenay Sarikaya, Kivanc Tatlitug, Cagatay Ulusoy, Burak Ozcivit.. These names got successful without any support of a modeling agency. But I wish, all models could be supported by their agencies.

WHAT YOU SHOULDN’T DO TO YOUR CHILDREN (English translation below) // ÇOCUKLARINIZA NE YAPMAMALISINIZ
Here is my second column at Yasamburada.com " What You Shouldn’t Do To Your Children "
// Yasamburada.com 'daki ikinci köşe yazım " Çocuklarınıza Ne Yapmamalısınız "
http://www.yasamburada.com/cocuklariniza-ne-yapmamalisiniz
Little or grown up, your child will always stay as your child. As a communications expert, I wish to list mistakes that I’ve observed. For further counseling, I can address you pedagogues, psychologists and psychiatrists. Maybe the best pedagogue I’ve ever known is my husband Morten
What You Shouldn’t Do To Your Children:
1. Don’t kiss your children on the lips. Making their resistance higher against bacteria is a created story. Go and kiss your spouse/husband/wife a lot. Your children are not your lovers.
2. Don’t tell your problems with your spouse/husband/wife to your children. In fact don’t tell anyone. If you are a no matter what telling person, go and tell to someone at your age.
And NEVER EVER replace your children with spouse/husband/wife. Do your activities with people at your age.
3. Listen to your children. Let them talk only. Give your time to them and sit without any furniture in between you, listen to them with your heart.
4. Caress your children’s heads, hug them and hold their hands. Hold their hands like a mother/father, not like a spouse/husband/wife and hold them.
5. Don’t touch their bodies even for jokes. Maybe until 10 of age you can slap their popos. I’m repeating until 10 of age.
6. Don’t abuse them to work with an “Earn your pocket money” lie. If you want more money, go and work in an extra job.
7. Don’t be an “I created you” person. If you are supporting in materialistic way, do it on time, support without making beg and keep silent. You can’t make your child respect you or be thankful making him/her run after you many times.
8. Give nice food to your children. Make them beautiful in ornamental way. I don’t say expensive. Ornamental. Their lunchboxes are more important..
9. Don’t make your children cry. World is enoughly bad.
10. Don’t make fun of your children. AGAIN NEVER EVER. A good mother/father loves the children more than her/his existence, doesn’t look for an opportunity to make fun of them.
11. Never insult your children. Even whilst an argument. Little ones take the power to live from you don’t you see it?
12. Don’t punish them. The ugliest punishments are leaving them in the street, darkness or hungry.
13. Do it when you promise. Promise is a given word to be done.
14. Don’t do caprice to your child. If you want to be spoiled’ your spouse/husband/wife is one phone call distant.
15. Don’t stipulate conditions. Talk openly. He/She will understand you.
16. Don’t threaten. Don’t scare them. I’m repeating again little ones take the power to live from you don’t you see it?
17. The thing you appreciate should be talent, not money. Encourage them for talents.
18. Encourage them to choose the profession they would like to have. Even there are two more people at home having the same profession. I know a family of four and they are all doctors..
19. Don’t let your daughters have make up until age of 16. Talk about sex education openly and tell that being pregnant at so young ages is not so good.
20. Don’t share your children’s half naked or in sleeping clothes pictures on social media websites. If you are a no matter what sharing person, be careful about your privacy settings and share with only your closest friends. You can’t know who is a pedophile.
