Amen to men


Dear All,
There are two things in life you need to help you survive no matter where your feet will land. Hope and love. I have landed in many places throughout my 23 years on this scared yet sinful earth. Hope I courageously carried around, but finding love was my soul destruction. I have been in my beloved Lebanon for almost a year and a half and looking back to the moment I landed, I still feel passionate about it. There is something in the air as you arrive that makes you feel at home, safe, and ready to rip all foreign passports. It has been a daily struggle to convince myself that I belong here. I have comprised my biggest blessings, Parents, for my Lebanon, yet I feel torn between a land that mothered me and offered me adventures and self-discovering opportunities, and a land that will always and forever define me. I have fallen in love with Lebanon the moment it was taken away from me. Why is it that we claim love when we no longer have? Why do we fall in love when we don’t even know? Are we abusing the feeling of love to escape reality? Soon I will be back in the states where I will witness what true love means. As I write this I can’t help but be happy and sad. Throughout my journey in Lebanon, I have realized Time is what defines it all. When it’s your time, it will happen. As for now I will leave you with this, do you believe in time, or we make it happen?



She is she and I am me, simply black vs white


Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.
