Kenza,

En effet d’aussi loin que je me souvienne je n’ai jamais entendu parler que de la crise, qu’elle soit pétrolière, financière, alimentaire, energétique, et meme morale ou spirituelle.

Quand je vois Obama des fois je me dis que c’est trop beau pour etre vrai

OK, dorenavant, je serais “Mouka-f-Slouka”
Un subtil melange de berbere et d’arabe qui compose notre chere Darija.
Savais tu que “Mouka” est un mot berbere? (Talmouket en berbere, le Ta est un indicateur de genre, dans ce cas la , Talmouket est un nom feminin, la plupart des mots feminins en berbere commencent par Ta… or Ti…, les noms masculins par A…, ex: Argaz, Abrid, Adrar…etc) on sait tous ce que mouka veut dire (Hibou).
“Moukates” sont reputees pour leur sagesse dans les contes classiuques, meme les contes berberes, en fait c’est un oiseau tres interessant, j’ai ajoute Slouka pour faire un peu plus dramatique, c’est une expression assez commune chez les “garcons” au Maroc.

Correction: it’s “Censoring”, as in “Censorship”.

Are you censuring the stuff I wrote?
I would be very curious to know what pushed you to take that little “kalam” out completely.

I am not trying to make any sense when I write stuff, I just let the words come out, I picture images, of long gone glorious days, indeed, we ruled the world, but we live, in the trash bins of history.

Do you wrestle with dreams?
Do you fight shadows?
Do you live in a desert?
Do you scream and no sound comes out of your mouth?
Do you watch unspeakable horrors, powerless?
Do you try to stop the flow of time?
Do you live in past glories?
Do you yearn for long gone warriors?
We all do,
In different ways.
Life is nothing but a moment,
Stretched out through memories,
Time escapes our grip,
Like water, like sand,
But we dream,
For life is nothing more than that,
A mirage,
A fleeting instant,
We dream,
Where are my heroes?
Where are my fighters?
When courage was at the edge of a sword,
When we ruled the world,
We dream,
And dream,
And hope,
Raiders,
Razzias,
Hooded warriors,
Running through the night,
Spreading the word,
But we have become,
Our worst enemies,
We place our hopes,
In strange hands,
And we pray.
And we pray.
And we pray.

@Anonyme: I think that a lot of people are just going to wait and see, and as I said he needs more than words to achieve even some of the challenges before him

But still my point is that it is the first time we hoped for something ”promising” and it had happened
We hoped that Bush wont be re-elected and he was, we hoped that the war in Iraq wouldn’t take place, we even believed in it, but it did; we hoped that some kind of peace can be achieved in the middle east and it couldn’t, we hoped that genocides in Africa are behind us but they aren’t and the list can go on….

I just became cynical for the last 10 years or so, but this time something I hoped for (and didn’t believe in it fully due to my new cynical nature) just took place… and it is something that counts a lot for me

And beside that I learned never to underestimate the power of words on people
