For those who may consider themselves, out of "norm", you may consult the other blog.

Sleepless, graphomaniac, world-wise, world-weary, disenchanted, phlegmatic, bored of everything and everyone, but fierily passionate when it comes to Iraq, acute "eye witness" of life, sarcastic describer, merciless with the wicked and the idiots but incredibly sweet and warm with the fellow-sufferers, overhumanly intelligent, shrouded in an aura of mystery...

...and you still would give me to swallow that we have never met ?

I totally simpathize with your infinite disappointment and regally dignified detachment from the squalid reality of this monotonous, narrow-horizoned, existentially unambitious part of the world.

Norm, normality, "normalization" as in politics...all anti-vital poisoned honey.

Trust me rather to die of cold a lonely bird in the wide empty winter skies than renounce my "wings" for the blissful tepidity of an earth worm's vegetative life.

great post!

I'm completely normal. I've learned a long time ago to go my own way. I march to the drums in my head and sing to the tunes in my heart.

Normal is for them, Layla. Would you give your abnormality for their normal just to feel comfortable? I'll wager not for a split second! Pandora will see inside the box.

Coincidencies...

I was listening to Omar Bashir's Al Andalus, when I went to your uncensored blog... I just love the sound of the Oud and the music of Iraq, but the "flamenco Arabe" that O.B. plays is also very enjoyable.

By the way, I have a sticker on my car (a 1989 vintage ) that says "Who are you to say what's normal?"

Coincidences, as I said.

My Dearest Layla

Interesting post.
There is a quote
*Normal is the pathology of the average*
I am not normal either !

Lots of love
Salaam dear

Salam Layla,

So, have you been able to strike the blance btween playing along and being yourself in your "real" life?

Also I dont want to meddle in your afffairs, but have you ever considered writing professionally?
I think that you would make a difference. There is a red tape that goes all the way through your social, political and subjective writings,which is connected to the core of the real problems our culture and civisation are facing.

Hi everyone,

Some very astute, intelligent, well written comments here...
A breath of fresh air in a stale blogosphere...
Thank you.

amre,

Writing professionally takes energy, time and money...
I am not sure, yet another book will make a difference.
I 've read tons of books, by tons of authors...Nice to keep as names and references. Have they really shaped this world into a better place? Am not sure.
Actually am not sure of anything anymore.
