It's been some time that i knew this day will come, but this time i don't feel it's worth the fight anymore, when you jump into the ocean you can't blame the sharks for eating you, I made a mistake when i gifted it to the "institution", it all went downhill from there on, it says a lot when a nobody like myself along with unorganized group of individuals from different ages, backgrounds, beliefs and from all over the world succeeded big time but "supposedly an organized" institution failed.
Closing the page on 10 years is not easy, but it's time for me to move on, memories will stay forever, over thousands of great friends will also stay forever, there are hundreds of names in my mind i want to thank but many of them will not even be here to read it, so THANK YOU all one by one for being part of a great success, what we achieved during those years and during different events was nothing short of magical, i don't want to talk details but Nahr el Bered coverage (and all those who copied from us) was the first time in the Arab World that such an event got such coverage, in the history of the Arab-Israeli conflict, no one came close to even match the Israeli propaganda, we crushed them on our own in the summer of 2006, as for what we did for the institution, I don't know and nobody will ever know if we played any part in any of the successful achievements but i know one thing, we did clean their mess and we did it many times.
I can easily move it back to where it was back in 2002 but why should I? I finally feel free and i longer have to clean anyone's mess and most importantly, I don't want to defend the mistakes and "fight" the wrong causes.
I don't know where will i end up, but I am going to give up on so many things, starting with the "institution" and most probably the shithole (AKA Lebanon) itself, Canada, USA, Australia, UAE and Qatar are all options but i also realize how this past 10 years i ignored many people who love me, i might stick around for now, just for my family and friends.
