It was cloudy and grey and I do not like grey clouds. It was windy and cold and I do not like cold wind. I put a few drops of cranberry fragrance oil in my burner and lit the tiny candle underneath, took my laptop in my arms, sat on the sofa, threw a blanket over my legs, and got online. I decided to browse Egyptian blogs and bloggers to see who is writing what. I typed &quot;Egypt&quot; in the search box and I was redirected from one blog to the other until I found his page. I do not know what made me stop and read; his words emitted a sincere and genuine vibe that blended well with the warming scent of cranberry that filled the room.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">He is a typical Egyptian guy &#8211; not my favorite &#8211; who has a typical Egyptian wife to whom he got married in a typical Egyptian way. They were leading a typical Egyptian life and they had no serious issues but for the every now and then character clashes between him and his wife. She had a free spirited genie locked within the bottle of the traditional Egyptian girl and she thought marriage will set the genie free. She pursued her love of nature in desert trips, safaris, and excursions, and he never understood her urges to sleep on the sand or to watch the sunrise from a boat. Nevertheless, they reached some sort of an agreement whereby she can have her breaks when he said that it was ok.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Gihan went blind; she lost her eyesight all of a sudden and the doctors said that it was a rare case. My eyes watered as I read Ahmed&#39;s lines: &quot;My 25 year old wife will never see the nature she loved again.&quot; He went on describing how she got depressed, shut him out, wanted a divorce, wanted him to remarry, quit her job, isolated herself, neglected her friends, and just gave up on life. There were a lot of tears between his lines and there were a lot of tears running down my cheeks. I could not even begin to imagine walking the famous mile in her shoes, or in his shoes. On her birthday, he nearly forced her to get dressed to go out and, to spare her the discomfort of being around people, he took her for a long cruise in a felluca.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Gihan asked Ahmed to lend her his eyes; she wanted him to tell her what he saw. He began talking about the scenery and she began asking him detailed questions. She wanted him to describe the sky; its shades of blue, the birds, the clouds, and the buildings in the horizon. She needed to know the color of the sun at the moment and he understood that orange is not a solid color. She asked him to tell her what he saw in the water and he learned the power of reflections. Gihan was the one who lost her sight, yet she was the one who lent Ahmed her eyes. For the first time he saw what she saw in nature and for the first time they enjoyed nature&#39;s beauty together.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">His words came to a full stop and my day came to an end. Ahmed and Gihan were in my dreams all night, and when I woke up in the morning I did not jump out of bed. I did not run around the house trying to get myself in the car to go to the office. I sat in bed and smiled at my cats, slowly reached out to the curtains, pulled them away, opened my window, and watched the sunbeams smile back at me. Their light filled my room and their warmth filled my heart. I reached out to my cats and for the first time I felt their soft fur; before, I used to touch them but that day I felt the warmth and the beauty of something that is beyond words &#8211; something that I took for granted.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">What else did I take for granted? Who else did I archive unintentionally? What other signs did I miss on the way? What more could I not see? What did I never have the time to do because I was so busy? Who did I never had the time to meet because I had other priorities? I got a cup of tea and sat back in bed and enjoyed a lovely new beginning to my morning. Eventually I got myself out of the house and drove to work; I decided to take a different route. I wanted to see new things and I reminded myself of how lucky I was to be able to look at such beauty. I am lucky to have the heart to enjoy it and I am blessed to be able to feel it. I am eternally grateful to Ahmed and Gehan &#8211; two people that I never met. The smile lasted that whole day, the day after, and many days that followed.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">New beginnings are always loaded with many contradictory feelings; hope, fear, optimism, doubt, resolution, skepticism, comfort, hesitation, and determination. The skeletons in the closet and collective experiences are a threat to new beginnings. Regret, or the fear of regret, weighs heavily on our hearts as we try to embrace the sunshine. We remember when we were last burnt or when we were last hurt, and we subconsciously look at our scars. Memories of how deep and how painful they were rush back to our heads, and with an involuntary movement we clench our fists as though we are holding on to the past. Something inside of us refuses to let go and that very same thing resists the change &#8211; the new beginning.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">I will welcome 2007 differently; the tree will shed its old dry corrupted infected leaves and will grow new soft fresh green leaves. I will slow down and enjoy the drive rather than the destination. I will take off my masks, let my hair down, face the sun, smile, and breathe. I will borrow Gihan&#39;s eyes and, from now onwards, I will use them to carefully watch what I used to carelessly look at; to deeply look at what I used to superficially see; to simply see what I simply never saw. &quot;Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. It comes in to us at midnight very clean. It is perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands and hopes we&#39;ve learnt something from yesterday.&quot; &#8211;John Wayne<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Happy New Year and happy new beginnings<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma,geneva,sans-serif;\">Marwa<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New beginnings are always loaded with many contradictory feelings; hope, fear, optimism, doubt, resolution, skepticism, comfort, hesitation, and determination.
