Dissecting Saudi

Nineteen months has passed since I did a step.. A step to attain one of my dreams.. Rumored as the land of "Just dime or penny".. Talked as a land of so much strict Rules.. Rials their stable currency. Oil their main product.. Towering modern ediffices abounds.. Architecturally design interiors.. Rich truly, as they said.. Islam the strictly followed religion.. Arabic their national language.. Riyadh, Jeddah, Maddina some of it's mainland.. Black and white the common colors of apparels.. Yet, roaming around malls.. Variant vibrant colors visibly in stalls.. Simplicity, that's what I appreciated here.. It was a barren solid land.. Almost all nationalities are here.. Finding a life; Making livelihood.. Maximizing what this country can offer... Yet it's rules, the prohibitions.. Depresses the other life of man... It takes away some of the joys of living.. Thus others, breaks the rules... " incest meetings" are such as searching gold.. precious as undiscovered diamonds.. friends makes the stay here worthwhile.. Adopting and preserving the heart of humanity.. by: olive_eloi 02/10/2013 9:44pm ------------
