Don't want you to leave! <3

Dearest sister,

It’s scary how time flies by so fast. I can still remember us talking about our future, dreaming about college as if it were yesterday. You told me it was too early to think about it. You told me we still had time. But look at you today, gathered here with all your friends and family, celebrating this precious occasion, your graduation day! You’re moving on, starting a new life on your own, but don’t worry this is just the end of the beginning. The real life is yet to come! Giving you a chance to be whoever you want to be. As Shakespeare once said “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams."

Growing up with you has taught me great things. It has taught me how to deal with problems, how to appreciate everything I have. It has also taught me to stand up for myself & defend my rights, and for that I’m really thankful. You were always there for me, guiding me, helping me, and teaching me.

Now that you’re going away to college I’m going to actually have to go shopping to buy my own clothes, and I’m going to have to memorize the streets to get to where I want to go. I never knew what independency is, because I always had you to count on. As much as your absence is going to be hard, I think that it’s somehow going to be beneficial for both of us.

I am also sorry for all the hard times, and the stupid fights. I’m sorry for what I did, and what I didn’t do. And just so you know, with every minute that passes without you here with me, I’ll be missing you! And finally, I want to wish you the best with everything you do. Dearest sister, I LOVE YOU!


Your sister,
FiFi

Unite. DON'T FIGHT.

When is this going to stop? This Insanity. This Stupidness. This MADNESS!
You might be Sunni, maybe Shei3i, or even Dorzi, but it DOESN'T MATTER. You're all LEBANESE! Yes, you all come from ONE country. LEBANON. If you don't want to put this craziness you're doing aside for the sake of the people, the victims, the children. Then you have to for the sake of YOUR COUNTRY. Where is Lebanon going to be in a few more years if the situation stayed like this? Tell me!! Captured and occupied by Israel? Or maybe America? Can't you see what they're doing here? They're manipulating you into fighting each other so that they can easily come and take your country away from you, kill your people, and steal what's yours!! I'm not Lebanese, but I'm an ARAB. & I care! You know why? Because if we stay like this, we are not going to accomplish anything in life & we're not going to reach anywhere. Palestine was first, and then came Iraq. Who's next?

I just have one request, only one.
ARABS, UNITE!!

It's A New Beginning From Today

“Live everyday as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find ''tomorrow'' on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, ''If I had my life to live over again. ''Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Start a new beginning today; treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.”
