Music and tragedy.

To add the last touch to our tragedy

they sent us a few days ago a group of egyptian actors...

Has any of you ever watched an egyptian movie?
Well, unless it says comedy, you are always guaranteed tragedy and a lot of tears (when you are not sharing the tears it gets a bit annoying to hear them after a while).
Violent scenes would contain head buts quite similar to what you got to witness during the last worldcup ...
And then, only more tragedy.

A knotless plot... A plotless knot: those are egyptian movies in my head.

When i was very young, i used to watch them in secret.
my cousin who was older used to severely punish me if she caught me doing it: she thought they were cheesy and tragic..

Judging on the colours and content of my blog, i would say i did not fail her; i am today the cheerful person she hoped i would become!

To make a long story short, please don't send anymore egyptian actors.

First our prime minister is not acting; he is sincere, and plus he already has a job.

We answer the straight and cold faces of people such as Gillerman with tears;
Although some would say they'll laugh at our weakness, I think it is a necessity to cry today.
If only to prove to ourselves , and not to others, that we are still sane...
we are still real...
we are still Human...

Let's stand up to cruelty with warmth.

To heartless faces with faceless hearts...

And to erase the taste of drama, I will recommand an article on music in Beirut I had read on Haaretz. "when the last note sounds on peace"...

It is simply beautiful although so sad...

to all the beating hearts on both sides of this conflict...
Shut your ears.
open your eyes and hearts instead : only then you will hear...
