• Am so in love with it

  Beirut

  13 January 2010

  Is it love or hate? I hate the chronic state of traffic jams and the way people drive there. I hate the way they swear; how they are always fighting for the same thing; that there are no rules; how materialistic it can be and how genuine people are. I hate how the most popular question in Beirut is 'kahraba wala moteur' (as in electricity or generator); how some people have it all and most have nothing; how we've stopped producing and are only consuming. But most important, I hate distancing myself from it and ultimately how am so in LOVE with it.
