In the new Egypt i believe.....


In the new Egypt i believe that every one should be who they really are... by Rana Kamaly




All that stood before me and making my imagination come to reality, was that absurd fence, that looked fragile, but yet I couldn’t over come it. I shock the fence out of irritation and thought, “why is it always that something has to prevent me from what I desire the most?” and then I stopped with an intimidating thought, “what if this fence wasn’t there, what if it is only inside my head, What if it was my own mind that is preventing me from what I desire the most?”

I think and rethink. I wait and keep waiting for that unexpected, unbreakable power, that will come and set me free from the world I trapped my self in; I keep waiting for that thing that will change my life for ever; That thing that will destroy my human limitations and set my soul free.

I know for sure that many of us Egyptians have this fence, because of cultural and social limitations. Many times we are pushed to fit into certain stereotypes, created by society. It prevents us from being who we really are. But yet many of us keep waiting for that power to break the prison of limitations and push us to be free.

I believe that the treasure of power we are all craving for, is hidden deep inside us. Waiting for us to accept it, appreciate it, embrace it, and set it free to make us who we are. 

Sometimes we forget that the impossible is just an opinion. we refuse to believe that any idea, started with an impossible phrase. Just like the eagle that believed all his family were ducks never imagined he could fly.

I believe that in the new Egypt we should all set out inner lights and energies free; open our eyes to the things we rejected or were afraid to see; and let our inner lights guide us throw building this country, without trying to deem the lights of others.
 
Here is an oath that I believe all Egyptians should make:
Am going to live every moment as imperfectly as I can and make it count; I am going to make my own new foot prints; Never again will I choose to close my eyes from the truth no matter how hard it is; I will never try to deem the lights of others or try and make my light shine brighter than them; I will love, appreciate, respect and accept everyone as they are. And I will build a new Egypt that is livable for everyone.

To all-Egyptians start being who you really are, who ever that might be. 

So please people go get lost and see where you are going to end up. Because we discover new places, only when we are lost. Just keep following your dreams, and never give up. As the step of victory might be the one you decided to give up on.
