Morning is here
Beginner's Arabic script
I've had this for way too long now, tired of looking at it. It will be a relief to finish it. Spent most of my time flipping through the pages for the most visually appealing words, only slightly enhancing my overall vocabulary.
I smile when someone remarks about how hard Arabic is to learn. Sorting through all the emotional, or mental, baggage of breaking a taboo has been the hard part. There are times when I see something Arabic, and all I can think about is the psychological exile I've been through with friends and family. More and more it brings hope and reconciliation to mind though.
I have not changed in bad ways. I have not crossed over the wall to the dreaded "them." I have found that cultural barriers are sort of a joke or illusion in a certain way. I crossed an imaginary boundary, learned some of the patterns of new ways, and have realized there are people I get along with and people I don't... just like the rest of of the whole wide world. It only matters if a person is intelligent and caring. Therefore I am a dedicated nonpartisan.
