During my last trip to Doha-Qatar, I came across a very interesting yet "shamful" article and a very "bold" poster.
Knowing that in case I meet a lady who has read or better memorized the article on the left (How to be the Perfect Wife), I may change my mind and cross to the other side known as "married" or for some unfortunate "Akalo el Dareb"!
On the other hand, the poster on the right shows a better and a more open view on the subject. But of course it will never be published in a magazine like the other article!
They say one can chose his friends but not his parents, unfortunately for most Arabs they cannot even choose their Husbands or Wives! For the West it's surely a comic statement but can they hear us laughing over here?!
So shameful that in Lebanon with 17 sects we still don't have a civil marriage. Now you can hear people getting married while their first meeting was on "facebook" or "meetic" or believe it or not on "X-Box Live" ;)
That remind us the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" where the distance between Seattle and New York is far greater than Achrafiyeh to Saida where two persons cannot even have the idea of getting married. Thanks God we have Cyprus nearby :)
As a conclusion, in order to be happy, one should Wear, Eat, Marry, Sing, Dance ... the way it feels best for him or her ;) Live and Let Live ... and in between don't forget to Love!
