Arabian nights
Like Arabian days
More often than not
Are hotter than hot
In a lot of good ways
I have been immersed in this culture more than I have in any other land, why?... Provided opportunities… I was able to help cook a traditional arabic meal, go to an amazing forum where singers from the call to prayer sang lines from the Qur’an , and then Arabic dancing. The end result a greater understanding and appreciation.
We asked our Islam professor what makes someone an Arab. He said anyone who speaks the language and is proud to be an Arab. I then asked if I could be an Arab, and he replied, “YES, Welcome!” So basically living in an area with Arabs for about 40 days, learning the language, and being proud=an Arab (that easy).
My new name will be Larababa.
Larababa?! Who are you? You kill me.
