I know I have not been able to blog as thought ,due to not having net and our unstable situation in Libya which resulted in war. I hope we say goodbye to 20011 with its horror to acquire peace; a high price our people have paid and still are as the filtering of Gadafist's still lingering around causing damage to whatever they can get their hands on..


Still we struggle with power cuts and long lines at the petrol stations topped with high prices of general goods and food.Unemployment is also a major issue as we depended on foreign companies and expats doing all our work for us.For safety reasons the Cooperates still keep a watchful eye on change for a safer existence in Libya to come back and resume their contract when safety measures are no longer a threat.


 Most of our students are not back in school yet in the Tripoli area... University of Tripoli has kept on initializing the semester then stopping abruptly then starting again .. A complete mess these past two months. This is mostly due to quite a number of lecturers being ex Gadafi supporters and still wanting to hold their previous positions ,while the students and the free Libyan people want them out !


Meanwhile, all the expat schools will resume the following scholastic year,   2012/ 2013 ...it is said.Cooperates will be coming in as soon as the monetary and safety issues are resolved ..Some say this will take another 3-4 months . We wait while we live this new democracy ,not knowing what awaits us yet in our hearts we hope and pray that the costly bloodshed be never repeated and also that we remember our martyrs and our veterans first and foremost for they have given their lives in order for us to be free.....


 The greatest change is that we can now speak our minds,something we had no power to do previously. In that respective ,we, still at having our say are not fearless of the fact of being taken into custody due to being threatened and silenced for so many years....


I dedicate this poem to you all :
To the outgoing year,2011
May the good times live on in our memories
And may we learn lessons from the troubling times
That will make us stronger to take on anything our way

May 2012 be filled with significant steps
For each and everyone of you,
Toward the fulfillment of your fondest wishes
In this coming New Year,


Let us focus on our goals with persistence
And work toward our dreams
Letting go of stressful negativity
Most important of all

Love one and accept one another
Appreciate yourselves and each other in the New Year
As I appreciate you now
Let’s focus on each other’s good points

While overlooking minor annoyances
To create mutual happiness and contentment in 2012 ! 
Wishing you all a Happy New Year filled with Blessings,Prosperity,Health and Peace.
