where do I start.. tribal mentality, lack of true democracy, people bugging into your own personal life, superficial people, conservative imposed laws, the combination of expensive everything and 30000-/year income, discrimination... only to name a few..

besides, I wasn't born here anyway.. and all my childhood memories are in eastern europe (where I wish to live in for good), there's always people who keep telling me that I don't belong here although I'm a citizen of this country, people who keep saying when ever an issue of discrimination or corruption is being raised: love it or leave it.. so I'M LEAVING IT! I'm so sick and tired of fighting this the whole time!!

i think fear is so part of our lives and psyche and approach to living in amman that we do not see it or think of it. it is who we are. citizens who feel scared, we fear the weather, the change is laws, the police, the mukhabrat, our fathers, our bosses, the night, public life, to say our true opinions, to negotiate god and religion, to dsicuss sexuality, to be different, and the list is long.

D; i want to better understand the fear we feel in Amman, so i will ask you: what do you fear? And if it is even possibile to know why you fear it?

Ghassan; why do you hope you are not still here to find out? Why do you want to leave? Where do yu want to go?
