Until.....

Dancing makes the world such a lovely place :) I wish I started learning Salsa years ago.... at least I would've caught up with guys my age, now the oldest I can find in beginners class is saneh rab3a handaset 3amara :S You don't wanna know how awkward they felt when they found out I was a 'working girl'!

I fell in love with this song below by Sting that talks about love and dancing..... it's the soundtrack of KATE AND LEOPOLD (stupid lovey dovey movie but great song)

I urge all of you Jordanians to shake your boodie whenever you get the chance :)

"Until"

If I caught the world in a bottle

And everything was still beneath the moon

Without your love would it shine for me?

If I was smart as Aristotle

And understood the rings around the moon

What would it all matter if you loved me?

Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still

With a million dreams to fulfill

And a matter of moments until the dancing ends

Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear

Not a solitary thing would I fear

Except when this moment comes near the dancing's end

If I caught the world in an hourglass

Saddled up the moon so we could ride

Until the stars grew dim, Until...

One day you’ll meet a stranger

And all the noise is silenced in the room

You’ll feel that you're close to some mystery

In the moonlight and everything shatters

You feel as if you’ve known her all your life

The world’s oldest lesson in history

Here in your arms where the world is impossibly still

With a million dreams to fulfill

And a matter of moments until the dancing ends

Here in your arms when everything seems to be clear

Not a solitary thing do I fear

Except when this moment comes near the dancing’s end

Oh, if I caught the world in an hourglass

Saddled up the moon and we would ride

Until the stars grew dim

Until the time that time stands still, Until...

Lyrics

I'm into lyrics these days, beautiful feelings that translate into words, from words through songs back into feelings. Since I was a kid lyrics got into me, I could cry, smile, fall in love from just listening to music lyrics, even the Spanish, Italian, Jewish songs I never understood moved me in so many ways. I love that about myself.
Since Valentine's Day just passed this is one song that has been running through my head all week long. You might have heard it on One TV. Enjoy.......... I'll be sharing more of those in the coming days.
Here's to romance, love & memories.............

Koop -Koop Islands Blues Lyrics
Ane Brun :
Hello my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you
We said goodbye
With the smile on our faces
Now you're alone
You're so sad on your own
The truth is
We run out of time
Now you’re looking for me
Or anyone like me
Na na na na…
Hello my love
It's getting cold on this island
I'm sad alone
I'm so sad on my own
The truth is
We were much too young
Now I'm looking for you
Or anyone like you

فريهان الحسن
عمان- تتعرض إسراء بشكل شبه يومي إلى العديد من المعاكسات وهي تقود سيارتها، تقول "يلاحقوني ويبدأون بمضايقتي للحصول على رقم هاتفي، وأحيانا تصل الوقاحة بهم إلى التسبب في حادث سير".
ولا تعرف اسراء (28 عاما) كيف يعطي الشاب لنفسه الحق بمغازلتها بطريقة مبتذلة، مشيرة إلى أنها تعمل على تجاهل المعاكسات باستمرار، لكنها تجد نفسها مضطرة للرد حينما يتمادى الشاب.
وتؤكد رجاء (28 عاما) أنها تتعرض وصديقاتها إلى المعاكسات بشكل مستمر، مستغربة اعتقاد الشباب الساذج أن الفتيات اللواتي يجارين "الموضة" في لبسهن يتقبلن المعاكسات ويتجاوبن معها.

Akhlag mafi!

I always separated between actions of people and who they are, a murderer is not necessarily lousy at his job for there is no such thing as a good person or a bad person full stop. We are a mix of everything.

I often think a prostitute could be a great chef, a drunk could be a loyal friend and a theif could have dignity and manners....... apparently not :)

لص سرق احذية المصلين فعادوا حفاة فوق الثلج

عمان- اجبر لص قام بسرقة الاحذية الفاخرة لعدد من المصلين في احد مساجد العاصمة عمان على عودتهم حفاة القدمين فوق الثلوج.
وذكرت وكالة الانباء الاردنية الرسمية (بترا) التي اوردت النبأ ان "اللص اقدم على سرقة احذية مصلين كانوا يؤدون صلاة العصر اول من امس (الاربعاء) في احد مساجد عمان".
واضافت الوكالة ان "اللص استغل وقت اداء المصلين لصلاة الجماعة داخل المسجد لتمتد يداه الى ما اعجبه وارتفع سعره من احذيتهم ليفر بعدها تاركا عباد الله يمشون حفاة فوق الثلج".
وابدى المصلون اشمئزازهم من هذا "التصرف المشين الذي جاء في اصعب الاوقات".
وقالوا انهم "انتعلوا الثلج ليعودوا الى منازلهم حفاة يستشعرون برودة الثلج الذي غاصت فيه ارجلهم بعدما عجزوا عن ايجاد ما ينتعلونه مقابل آخرين استخدموا احذية قديمة مهترئة وجدوها على باب المسجد".
