I was afraid that 14 February would come and take away all my hope in a new Lebanon. I had my doubts but why shouldn't others doubt too in the sincerity and honesty of leaders of 14 march. But Luckily, nearly a MILLION, and I insist; and those who claim the opposite... I recommend a visit to a doctor!... You know maybe not all those who were there support the 3 leaders altogether ( Geagea Jumblatt and Hariri ) but they all thirst for being together as Lebanese, from different religions, shouting the same words, wanting One Lebanon for all. You cannot hate or judge these people if you had an opposite point of view for what they want is to live in harmony. It is not that difficult to bring the Lebanese close to each other, but sadly Lebanese don't unite unless against each other. Yesterday, the image of a sunni, a druze and a Christian standing in the same place, feeling the unity and love for each other... Yes! I was there, everyone talking to each other with a smile and a sense of being careful not to say something disapproving... Yes, they have kept Lebanon's sons so long apart until they forgot how to deal with each other. This "divided state" is fake... Just watch what will happen if all politician leaders decide to unite, everyone will become brothers because no real principles for hating each other exist. This hatred is blind and unexplained. Why sould you feel that you have to be armed and ready to start a war on your brother just because his environment and knowledge impose on him a certain way of thinking. Wake up Lebanese. I know that inside all of you there's a thirst for unity, for sitting with all those who were for so long pulled away from you, just the thought of a Muslim understanding and uniting with a Christian or a druze or whatever brings a smile to your face and tears in your eyes. Wake up Lebanese so that we build Lebanon in less than a 1000 years so that we can get our share of living in such a beautiful and meaningful country before it is too late!!!
I've been sitting on this post for awhile now because it's really hard for me to write. I don't know why. It isn't anything new or surprising, it's just that it has finally started to bother me on a fundamental level.I went on a family vacation in...
I feel like a jenga game. My foundation is being taken away from me piece by piece and it's a matter of time before it all comes crashing down. I tried to talk to MM last night but he was drunk and I don't think he remembers it now. I'm trying t...
So, my strategy for dealing with this revelation about MM did not go well. And why would it. I wasn't upset about the anniversary thing. I was upset that he slept with somebody else (even if it was early days) and went to Europe with her (I have yet ...
I can't remember when India officially went on my list of places I want to visit. In high school I was obsessed with the Beatles and especially George Harrison. There is no doubt that India effected them. Then in graduate school I started reading the...
I'm teaching at a school in the west end called Emery Collegiate, it's about as different from SATEC as chalk and cheese. I do miss the halls at SATEC, and I've discovered something - I came back to SATEC a little while ago, before I started here,...
