So, in order to start a BETTER way of living in Lebanon, I was thinking: why we, lfpmers, even if not FPMers, don't have that initiative and start to say "SABA7 EL KHEIR", and not Bonjour neither Good morning, to every person we meet on the road, in a shop, wherever we pass by...??
Why don't we start a new way of life while each one of us makes the day of at least 10 persons per day??
How many persons we meet daily, same ones on our way to work for example, or new ones or those whom we've never seen before but stuck like us in a traffic or driving near to our car... or even those that are in THE SAME taxi... Strangers yes... BUT FELLOW LEBANESE...
Let's start saying SABA7 EL KHEIR to all the people around us just because our eyes saw theirs... Just because their body passed near ours... and let's wait for the results... Maybe it will becoma a GOOD habit and smiles RAIN everywhere in LEBANON... What do you think?? |
Hey darkorange!
Very nice idea of yours! I like it alot :-)
It is indeed a great feeling if someone out of nowhere smiles with all their heart and tells you 'good morning'
If someone just smiles at someone,I'm sure it makes them both feel great
And you're right,this is what is need for the Lebanese!
It truly brings tears to the eyes to think how divided and hateful the Lebanese have become of one another
But the problem is that some people have attitude
If you smile or say 'Goodmorning/bonjour/saba7 il kheir', they look at you like this: 'Did they just greet me? Really..maybe they mistook me for someone else?

'
You know,because nice actions today have become quite limited
Some don't even look at others directly or some do look for a second but turn away immediately
But I think if this intiative is continued,it can change hearts and I'm sure most people love such heartwarming things
Salam!
