Writerscafe..again

just thoughts ,along a way ,a trip on here,the cafe about 6 years now

i was always a happy person i loved my life and the bits that it gave me..
not for long ,the smiles i tried to keep on my face faded gradually..
then fear and instabilty took its place..for reasons well known
to anyone known just a little about my country Iraq..whenever...
whenever i felt down and lonely i referred back to reading ,and reading a lot like crazy
its a way i always known since very early youth,it just kept me sane
i always wondered at this life and world..its sheer madness i knew all along
i was never to live my life like this ,i could never fit,though i am so sociable
so in my books i buried my mind ..
i lived my whole life reading,exept of course my work,for i had to support myself
i left the country many times..and came back only to see it much worse....
here i come to the point ..i was admitted to the internet ,i found nothing amusing
but i found the thing i would never forget ,Writerscafe..the first few days and months
it was heavenly,i could vent all my worries and sadness..i would write not so bad
not so bad stories..it was like a refuge coming here..then i knew the bad guys are everywhere..so much drama i ve seen here ,and i had to lock my account many times
still i could not stay away for long..for there were no where else to go..and there
were so many great friends i had here..they are like the world to me..even though
the site was worsening each day and month ,lots left
but i could not leave..like a vagabond i had no where else to go..how many filthy remarks i heard..i never gave any thought of it..for i truly believe,a writers site will always win to the end
literature and writing ..no one could mess with them..they stand so strong ,and they move with strong stride,i am sure one day everything will be as glorious as it was..even better

There are ups and downs everywhere, even in writerscafe, but I too hope that the friendly exchange of thought and expression overcomes the "not-so-friendly" one.
I understand how reading and writing can be a sanctuary from the outside harsh realities, or a way that helpsto face them.
As to Iraq, I can only imagine how dismal and hard it must be to see your beloved place of birth become so. Knowing how main stream media operate, no doubt what we read or view is a polished-up scene... Be safe, be well, and I hope to always read your new posts.

I pray that your country becomes better. Once I wanted to join the marines to go over to Iraq and fight but then all the violence came and sadly it felt like no one honestly cared that much for the innocent woman and children that were being murdered coldbloodedly, no one cared for the many victims of intended attacks to just inflared more chaotic drama and lies.....

But I still want to go there but now to be apart of a cure for unstable minds that will blow up their own country for anothers agenda. ...THEY NEVER TELL US THE TRUTH.

Oh, my friend, I hope you can stay on here, always. I think of you, wondering how you are doing, wondering if you are safe, hoping and praying that you are and things get better for you there in Iraq. Keep writing my friend.

Hello! I've just recently gotten back on here! I've been off here for maybe a year or so but I'm a soon to be mother now, lol. Btw, you are also one of my friends and you've commented on most of my work so it's only fair to comment back now after such a long time. You are true to your word in what you say about writting, no one will ever take that away from me, you, and the rest of us. I love writting just as much as you do. Congratulations on your stay here! Congrats! =)

P.S Never be hard on yourself. EVER!
