January 27, 2010 (QOL)
I never saw a deadly and long terrified eyes and
faces--so great, UNDER a repeating choruses that
never ashamed its-self, even those with wincing
bodies and tearful eyes never saw who is in charge and
to whom that these facts are entitled. the sharp
pains as I felt and saw created a sort of mingled
anger, scorn, or feeling of injured innocence. her
eyes, the eyes of Miss. Luul can easily be read,
the stigma and discrimination, associated with past
unhealed conflict-related mental disorders, invincible
over-powering survival resources, would, if you guess
tell you concurrently a story of hope and despair
together.
She asked,
"instead of mitigating that grief and psychological
trauma among those Female, a surviving family
members" she quotes. "Should more systematic
humiliations, beatings, bias cure their state of
desperateness" she added; and without requesting an
attention she continued, climbed tall and high mountains of
pain; until I have integrated her thinking.
"They
telephoned us" she uttered, soon she arranged two
main obstacles; one her kids would not be fed that day, becouse
"House-left-overs" which she feeds her kids Two:
she is absent of her household Maid job, which was for
her living and her kid's living source. So she starts her
journey to the Social and Health Centers. worse for borrowed
transportation Cost; GO and BACK. I went with her, we
arrived, we handed our Refugee ID to tiny
security-motivated window. "Wait Lady unless you are
Called" said by very strong voice. We looked for
around some shady area to escape from the sun. Others
preferred to stay under the sun. Couple of hours later, as
others I have articulated that we have been left outside to
care of ourselves; nevertheless without acknowledging me I
learned who were inside? you may be sure that their dress,
presumed offices, inside and behind that wall and concrete
doors, were strange and wonderful.
Surrounded
by Red-Eyed uniformed Dogs , sorry Men. the outside
standing mom's, girls, kids, looked like as were they told to
queue a self-imposed line, like a military parade
is taking place, their eyes where forecasting a
troubled dream. Such a scene as that, only a very strange
power could have caused such a feelings. no untreatable
word.....no chooses were offered. one of the stand still Mom's
was seem to be busy for her cell phone, ringing
fluently.....she looks to have bothered in this God-Waiting
wishes far away from her practical life. every time she walks
away to answer her cell phone I observed, she tries to face
the music there, following through out wave lines.
"Before
Yesterday I was here no result" she proclaimed,
despising me as if this is her god-sent fate that nobody
whose shape is as that can improve, or at least can complain. Eventually,
and suddenly we all surprised how she was imitating to have
such a brave heart, actually not inherited but a heart
that was frayed by the Triangle of Despair and Hope.
Self-imprisoned
kids, behind the closed doors, for her Day-After
Housework that has been play truanted for Four consequent
Days. its for Hand-to-Mouth, And Here? She murmured...
Counting chickens without eggs is now her problem, She says,
She was busy in Here.. Here. Another day is similar to
Doomsday. The Last of the Three, she recalled is the
best, " Becouse Coming here, and the moment of
escapism it fathers", I created, "so its your Heaven as per
the other two" I renewed that fact.
"Heaven
She jumped...say Hell...Hellish", Said, her
screamed, Looking at me on a suspicion
of irresponsibility. What I want is to
enquire how the hell we have been imprisoned here from 9:00 AM
up to 4:35 PM" she said seemed to be impressed by
me. She afforded to have knocked the Door
"tell us what? to do?" scared eyes were untreatable,
and continued "We have another Fishes to Fry"
she Separated both, "you were called as if was
said", " for leisure time Picnic". I added
behind her, pushing her deep in to the trouble!. Every
body that was before and after the door seems now deeply
to feel that this lady should not have been allowed to knock
the door and request an enquiry. Some analyzed as a dead
women prepared for the grave, others were quick to grasp the
chance, forwarding a huge negative accumulation that
was temporary stored in the heart; a sick heart
that its inside something very strange was taking place.. To
Revenge, not others but the Revenge its self?. Who
Dares? Somebody who was behind the closed doors shouted
"BEAT HER ON THE HEAD..CATCH HER..SO THAT WE MIGHT REASSURE
THEM TO GO..?". her story ends there and starts
again...
I
know, they are compelled to that fate...as its, "Do you
see" Mr. Pen Man, you see your eyes. Exploiting her
bloody head injury.... "You would be regretted to be
served by a human being who think towards you as a tool"
she said now without fearing. I have said to her, don't
forget the Somali Proverb which says Adin Waa La dhibaa, Ilna
Waa L dhowraa" Means "Foots are Dragged, but Eyes
are Protected ". I scolded. "So you
said, as I was expecting" Miss Luul retorted
continuing her unmonitored accusations, "Small and
Treatable Diseases cant be Treated. No a Hungry Stomach
can be even half-filled or an Angry House lord can be
calmed Down by those.. Here..." She ransacked "its
Here....." she said pointing her faint finger towards a
close building.
Her
Bloody Stained Head; had been covered by something, also I
have recommended strongly to know that as the Somali Proverb
says "Balaayo Madax Laqabtey Leedahaye Mijo La Qabto Ma
leh" which means "Trouble can be contained
through out the Head and not Hands". so let us get out
Here" fortunately she accepted to be taken far location
from the Door.
My
turn I unconsciously promised that I would make them pay for
that....."How can we revenge?" I my self went on
proceeding. "Don't suppose that I spoke of this to
anyone". I said glancing around my sides. "But I
would make them pay." I repeated, prejudging my self as
such a man who would move a mountain of human
beings..."Yes. But I must act with the greatest
care" I calmed my heart, to suppress my fears.
"Usually
a wrong Can not be made right in that manner,, unless they
knew they were paying and knew who is forcing them to
pay..." I concluded. After a while I realized that,
to Judge what is said by all sides, and conclude what I saw my
Eyes is what is waiting me to complete. "what the hell
they did" I asked a man seem to me, a very
proud and arrogant.. "are they world threat to you" I
teased looking down because the illuminating Redness
Color that was Beaming from his eyes.
"Undisciplined
women" he exclaimed; that is all! Nothing more was said
against her.
But this was
only what we call coincidence----I though, two things
happening at same time, but only by chance and because not
some cause that brought them together.. I quickly and
easily grasped unbiased answer. Because he knew also that..
O.K let say biased I countered.. let say one
incident, and only one has marked that motivations,
how about repeating that same film! That already is paved
by Bloody Events, Sorrowful Stages of Misunderstanding,
Slander Character, and Fabricated Arguments. So the
Frustration follows. Until every one is scared or expected to
be beaten simply, or until others believed the senseless
accusations However, all Refugees Do NOT know
What rules were broken and How?.
The
sole Mediator, Our Step-Mother, who's Husband also is one
of our respectable Step-Fathers, have intervened and quickly
jumped to conclusions? and saw the events same
eyes, Because if you look at something very closely
you can see few Things more closely (the things that was
fabricated by the step-brothers as indiscipline?)..However
the complete shape of whole Picture Escapes...I Enquired.
not
to believe Our Step-Mother sent, one of her adapted gals
who on her turn adopted weeping Strategy when she see
her eyes wide upon the grievous bodily harm made against these
Moms and when she disappears says same as the
indiscipline argumentativeness?! here we end the
investigation...that ends here and again starts...
My
turn the immediate Short Term problem is HOW TO SERVE? The
People are two (1) Service Provider (2): Beneficiaries
(1):
beautiful buildings, gainful salaries, Air-Conditioned
Apartments and etc, are only allotted to serve the
beneficiary's of Number TWO. in the most possible human way.
That
is all if some thing is left , feel free to say to me..
