EGO among LEBANESE,Here Is Why :
EGO Should be the name of our country Lebanon.
As I walk, interact, experience with persons, individual, herds of Lebanese, yet I'm one of them, and of course, the EGO has been contagious!
I allow my self to explain and not become a judge.
As a music composer, someone "who fall on the side of being religious-ethical-spiritual" yet sometimes, demons get unleashed from me, from living among my colleagues in that lands, or may i call them partners, because let's face it, this is a COMPANY not a country,split by sects, leaders, followers, herds, sheeps, and all sort of divisive forms
When one looks at the citizens and encounters massive complaints, weird reactions, egoistic, and inflated snobism, one cannot but wonder what is wrong?
Are we elite? disillusioned by Gibran Khalil Gibran who lived in the states, learned from the eastern philosophy and we keep simply repeating his name?
Are the Phoenicians a reason to identify with them, because we were the first to discover the alphabet? yet we don't know how to use ethical language with others?
Who said Phoenicians didn't have bad qualities, is it rational to link our selves with a mixed heritage that goes back to many thousand years ago, and still apply this ego? and think we are unique?
Our dialect change each 4,5 km whereas in other countries you need a whole state of more than 20 000 km2 to feel a change in the attitude or language and environment
The first question we ask behind our backs is
what is he? muslim...hmm, Christian? oh, what Maronite or orthodox? druze? really how do you know him?
Suddenly you feel we are walking among aliens, each following a certain Avatar holy that you can't mess with.
"mch aref halak ma3 min am thke" the most famous phrase, that shows weakness not strength.
I think we are such weak souls, we do not dare to join our forces for our own sake
We are sinking in debts, yet afraid if we stand up for our rights starting from electricity, water, construction, jobs, etc
each ministry, each service belongs to a leader, a sect.
Although the same people suffer tremendously from the same shit going on.
We don't dare to speak up fearing our leader and his followers will simply and blindly defend his status, way before defending our right (which are the same by the way, stupidity.. idiot behavior ?.. dunno
What else to speak?
Some other types of people enjoy teasing middle class or poor, by injecting poisonous promises in help and yet no one tries at least.
We have a filthy habit that I keep seeing :
we promise others, we suck their services, their talents (yes it happened to me and I'm sure with 40% of the population) and offer nothing in return
As if we "must offer" we must work for free,
This same herd of people, enjoy throwing their money into gala diners, fake charities, a filthy circle where money keep circling in millions among 2,3% of the citizens
Our traditional habit is to lie, to take illegal profits, commisions, bribe, convince the other to form a duo against a third person.
You need to be a psychologist, a spiritually enlightened person, to discover the real motive behind each Lebanese
I must say, it's true that I'm not generalizing but I guess it's more than 80% of our colleagues in that company (Lebanon)
the genuine, honest, lovable person have no room in that land,
truth be told, either we need a miracle,
or this land must be ruled.. we are not worthy of this land!!
neither I'm proud to Lebanese,
sorry to say that, many will agree or disagree
but the energetic dark fields over this country, which shows, clearly is enormous.
I have one tip from my humble experience :
Go inside your self, meditate pray, not just follow your organized religions
try to detach from this ego
or else this balloon will blow at the end
