Usual Life in Unusual Place


In my way home after a tiring dense course, I  pass two long streets walking in order to get a car because of the fuel crisis in the strip. I was looking from the car`s window seeing the crowds as usual , Gaza full of people and cars comparing the space of Gaza, and even seeing a few cars is something "usual" due to fuel shortage. 

However, the most thing can disturb that rhythm of people`s life is cars sirens. Drivers use this sound too much mostly for unnecessary things..awful annoying sound. " why does not the government take fine from drivers who make this sound". 
The car continues rounding in the same streets I know well whenever I want to go out and get back "as usual". While looking to people ..some are in hurry ..others are working on a building, a few are sitting outside their shops chattering, my brain ( consciously)  grasps apart from one of Abdulhalim`s songs saying " my heart, my hope, why do you conceal ? " ya albi, ya amali, leeh betkhabi?"

Abdulhalim`s voice is getting further and further until disappears; bursting out questions from nowhere: Is it our life usual ?!!, Is it will be the same if I am living in my original city (Majdal). Then I conclude that we tend to think and act as we live a usual life because we are humans at last. I get out of the car but the questions are still surrounding me. I have to walk a short distance to reach home.  When I open my home`s door, I smile and I said to myself: oh ! our lover has visited us today. It`s my luck. I`ll finish my work early today. Of course, most of you are wondering, who is our lover that waiting "her" every 12 hours a day?! 


 Obviously, "She`s" the one who can run our life and stops it in "her" absence. "She" makes the house like a ball of fire. On the other hand, the continuous of "her" absence will make a critical crisis in every aspect of our life. As an old song says : " zoroni kol sana mara, haram tensoni bel mara..." ( visit me every year once, please don`t forget me ..". After a few minutes, our lover (electricity) will say goodbye so  I`ll say goodbye too.

فى ذكرى انطلاق الألوان

لون ... تسد بات الاّن ومن الواضح ومما لاشك فيه ولا يخفى على أحد, أن  لا أحد يستطيع أن يلون  الشعب الفلسطيني بلون واحد حتى لو كان هذا اللون هو السائد , أو يعتقد نفسه بأنه السائد. فلقد أصبح من السائد أن يقال : انظر ان ألوان هذا الطيف (جماعته) كثيرة .. لا بل انظر ان ألوان ذاك الطيف أكثر, وكأنهم يتبعون مبدأ الكثرة تغلب الشجاعة.فمن هذا المنطلق فانك ترى أن الديمقراطية التى نهلل لها غير عادلة في بعض الأحيان. فهى تمدك بالقوة لكى تسود ولكن أساساتها تنطوى على ايهام الشعوب المغلوبة. ومن ناحية أخرى ان تمازج الالوان الفريد هو ما يميز هذا الشعب بكل أطيافه , فانك تستطيع أن ترى العائلة الواحدة لديها مجموعة مشكلة من الألوان, وكل لون يأتي معه أفكاره, وتوجهاته, واختلافاته مع باقي الألوان . ولكن لكي تتمازج الألوان مع بعضها البعض فهي بحاجة الى هدف يوحدها ويبرزها أيضا. كما أن هناك ألوان تسطع في الشمس , فهناك ألوان تنشط في الظلام. والألوان  أيضا بحاجة الى ريشة ويد ماهرة  قادرة على احداث التمازج (لا المزج) -فلكل لون صفته الخاصة- حتى تحقق توافقا معقولا ومبنيا على أسس سليمة.  فمبدأ السيادة هو مبدأ مخيف
