No more nostalgia..

for the first time since 09/11/2004 when i first landed in Dubai, i managed to book a one-way ticket to Lebanon.

Out of respect for this nation, i will hold my tongue with what i feel in the regards of life here...

Going back home, to my Lebanon..
to the mess, yes indeed..
to the worries about the situation, yes indeed..
to the contrast between a life one gets used to in Dubai, and the one awaiting in Lebanon...
to the countless wonderful things about people and nature...

I know all missing arises from a need, once the need is fulfilled the missing ceases, and i will be seeing objectively again..

I will look at the life and situation in Lebanon from a different perspective..
Nevertheless, i always liked it.

The one thing that changed since i left by the end of 2004 is the appreciation i have for my Country, with all its controversies, now i appreciate it even more..
Once i stopped taking it for granted, i realized how valuable it is to me.

Well, i can't wait for it all to BE, just being back home.. where i belong...

Farewell Dubai, i hope never to set foot again on this sand, for any reason except a short visit.
