Sore

- It shocks me how so many things that I believed were true,pillars upon which I built my faith, have been wrecked and made into powder for me to quench my thirst with.
What I mean to say is that this world we live in, this age that seems to proceed with madness and havoc, have taken away many of my core principles. I'm guessing many other people's as well.

Everyday I find out that I'm such a different person from what I had perviously thought myself to be. Perhaps I'm ever-changing. Perhaps I don't really know who I am. Does anyone "really" know who he/she is? Every minute we are faced with new situations,novel problems,critical decision-requiring moments. The way we handle these reveals,I believe, what we are made of. Sometimes it's not even clear why we might prefer one course of action to another,why we do something and never dare to do another.

They killed a great man. Al-Hariri wasn't just anybody. He was a river of generosity and wisdom. I salute his soul whereever it may be. Blessed be the faithful and the patriotic! May his shattered flesh embrace his winged spirit and rest in peace.
