invisible line

23 Aug 2011 by celine

This is the year book of a friend of mine when he was a kid. The drawing on the cover are bombs and it says, this is the year of the war. The note of the school principle in there is beautiful, real and down to earth, he is announcing that the school was open part time, and was opening its doors to whoever needed shelter.

The invisible line between peace and war makes every moment in Lebanon feel like an eternity. The instinct of survival and of optimism for some pushes us far away from our land. Everyday is a chance to follow a dream, to become a better person, to push yourself forward. I live on these terms. And sometime I need to remind myself, we are just passing through.
