The truth will prevail
Salam all,
First I have an announcement:
If you want to make a visit to my house, you are welcome. You can find me in there anytime. I am not going anywhere; I don't intend to go to anywhere. I am not going to lie and say that I don't like going out and making visits but you are a very dear guest. * If you lied once you can make another lie*.
I am spending my holiday in my house. Don't think it's a boring holiday. I am doing all the sort of things that you do.
I sometime go for a walk. Taking some steps from one room to another. From kitchen to guest room, from bedroom to bathroom, and some time I make progress and go to our backyard just for a walk in the garden. You know walking is a good sport.
There is something you don't know about me; it's how much I love music. I think I have a musician ears. I like music, je l'aime.
It seem like the pilots of the American airplanes heard about my interest in the sound of the warplane and military airplane ( not true) but they really seem like they have an order not to let anyone sleep. I am so sorry for disappointing them. I woke up one day and I found myself in love with the sound they make. It's not like other sounds; these sounds are special and they are a natural sound. They are like bed's song . They are not merely an annoying, ugly, awful, hideous sounds and impossible to hear. They help mothers to hush their babies. They help the community to discover the valuable of silence.
If speech was made from silver, then silent is made from gold.
I am not a bookish girl; I never will be. But the situation in Mosul gave me an unwanted present. It's a space time. Therefore I found myself ending reading one book and start to read another. I don't know why I didn't do that ages ago!! Reading is really amusing and a useful habit. I read a police story written by Agatha Kristy. And I read two books of Harry Potter's series and some other stories and useful books. Reading a book is much easier than writing a book, don't you think?
I am still holding tightly what hope I have remaining especially after I survived last night.
At about 1 A.M I went out of my room. I was half asleep and my eyes were nearly closed and there was creature with green evil eyes looking at me. It seemed like it had an invitation to enter my room. It was walking towards me and my room when my brain finally receives a call that this creature is a cat.
"CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!", I shouted loudly and pushed my way back into my room and closed the door behind me and I began to scream and yell for help. " There is a cat in the house!", I shouted and Najma (My sister who knows very well how much I hate cats and how much I am afraid from the sight of them) woke up my father and told him the story.
My father went upstairs where my room is and he saw the cat running from the warehouse's window. He told me that the cat left and that I am safe now, but I insisted that he walk downstairs with me hand-in-hand. My father was very furious and he said to me "You are lucky, the cat didn't eat you".
I don't expect him to be proud of my brave behavior because I was really shaking and full of fears. Anyway, I survived and the cat didn't eat me.
Najma as usual didn't stop giggling at me. Hmm, I miss the old times when I was the brave girl and she was the one who don't have the courage to enter the kitchen without the company of someone. I invented the story that there is a ghost named Shahrurah living in the kitchen and since then, she didn't enter the kitchen alone.
I don't know what the reason that makes the people here feel bored and wishing that they could leave Iraq. Najma, for example, is reading a book called Faster Than The Speed of Light and she is reading something about transport across time !! (I told you she is weird, But you didn't listen!) She wants to live the future without living the present!! *yuk*
Why did anybody want to live in the future since everything is going to worse? why does anybody want to live another second, another hour, and another day?
Who said she will find herself in the future anyway? Who said she will be alive? Who said there will be a life?
It's very difficult to understand the incentives and the reasons that make her think that there will be a better future.
You friend from present,

Reading, I will say, helps you get away from all of the struggles around you. I will also say that reading a book is most definitely easier than writing one! I write and I read a lot myself. It's something i've enjoyed for a long time along with writing. Since it seems you have an abundance of time on your hands I would suggest finding a book: It's kind of difficult reading but the "Canterbury Tales" is a wonderful piece of literature and quiet humorous at times (make sure you get a translated version)! It's a book you can read a thousand times and never grow old of it. I am very sorry for about what you're going through. i'd have you know that not all americans walk around with weapons, aircrafts, and camoflauge. There are a few sensible ones left. I hope the best for you.
