Less than 24 hours before I leave this beloved country, Lebanon. I must say that I have decided--this is the place I want to be my home, this is where I want to live. No romanticism, no idealism...it's reality and it becomes clearer the older I get....
Lebanon--it's the fertile ground for change, for opportunities. We should all start planning the return. We should! No doubt! It would be a shame to leave it behind, when it is so thirsty for our minds, for our endless energy, and optimism.
Yes, don't worry, I will talk politics, a lot of it, right when I return to the cradle of routine. Soon, I'll be giving you inside stories from the Lebanese Common Man.
I also met with Beirut Spring's Mustapha and Lebanese Political Journal's Lebanon_Profile. I will write about that as well. I just wanted to write these words...I can smell the fresh scent of the Pine Tree from the hills of Bhamdoun-El-Mhatta.
Forever, Loubnan Al-Moukaddas.

Doha,
Looking forward to your inside stories from the "Lebanese Common Man."
forever Loubnan al Moukaddas!
Ooh pleaase.. Moukaddas my ass.. Enough with the Irational jingoism !
spare this forum your spite.
We all drown in Lebanon's problems every day of our lives, so a few instances of admiration and appreciation of the positive aspects of our land, people, and country, should not be a problem.
I guess its one step at a time. And the first step should at least be some semblance of hope. This post is a good start.
Hope was killed by a crazy Lebanese driver.
To make it clearer for anon: we love this F-word crazy place
High Five Doha.
