My silent friend

04 April, 2006


Driving from the university I decided to go to the beach as the weather was cloudy little bit. I chose a quiet spot…actually I couldn’t resist not to be near the water… I always had that secretive relation with the sea… Whenever I wanna escape from human beings, I go to visit my silent friend. It’s color and the sound of its water hitting the rocks I sit on give me the energy to survive. It charges me with power to struggle. What makes the sea unique is that its always there for you, to listen to you ……..

I just grabbed a stone and start drawing on the sand. Strips and matrixes are what my hand drew. Deep lines…but not as deep as my soul wound… I wondered about what these lines might mean in the psychology dictionary….
Anyway ..felt that I want to get closer and closer to my friend so I jumped on the rocks.
i told myself now I can see the whole sea clearer. Wish if I could see my future path as clear as I saw the blueness of the sea.

I saw a plane and wished if it could stop and pick me. It would be a miracle….a miracle that it will never happen,,, but who knows …it might have read my thoughts at that moment but chose to ignore me ... sometimes objects might understand, feel, sense more than human beings!!

I didn’t care where it was going as long as it will take me far away.

Anyhow…I charged myself with wut might keep me strong for coming days so I decided to go home… while going back to my car, a local guy passed in front of me and said: Asalam 3alikno (Peace be upon you)

I was like sorry I won’t fell in that stupid situation again. So I ignored him as if I haven’t heard anything…
The other day while walking in the street a car approached me and the guy driving said:
Mar7aba “Hi”
Me: Ahleen “Hi”
The guy with a suit and tie: Kifik “ How are you!!”
I was like damn it ..i thought that he stopped me to ask me about directions or something as he looked mature (in mid thirties may be) and gentle….i felt that I was really stupid..why did I stop in da middle of the street and gave him attention!
Ya well I though that he would be civilized but ya I was mistaken (as 99.99% of men are not!!! )

Anyway …beside my car was a cute guy smoking alone.,, Sounded that he had something to say to the sea. I felt that we had something in common. Felt that he had a story to tell….

But I just ignored him as I switched on the engine and drove
away………

twin, different people have different lives and different levels of problems. don't classify them as 'loners' or 'losers'. we have our own way of dealing with issues :)

AL:
i do exactly the same thing! each time i'm depressed, i drive by the beach and sometimes i don't even get out of the car because of those local guys :S i sit in the car...and just stare at the horizon...at the ships...the movement of the water...the swirling of the leaves...and the quiet sand and i wish if i could merge into that peaceful scenery. water really calms my mind.

and as for the locals, ignore. there are crappy people everywhere :)

Twin
If you consider those who like to go to the beach alone as loners then this is definitely your personal opinion …anyway thx 4 ur advice …by the way I didn’t ask anybody to read the crappy stuff I write…..i had enough from being judged unfairly……..hope that this doesn’t sound offensive to u twin
