Salam my dear friends. I have one question that makes me crazy every day. Why in our region nobody cares about the clock? Yesterday I invite my friend for dinner at 7 PM. He called me at 7:15 and said: Habibi, I am in the car, I am coming now! But I heard his wife talking and the TV in the background. Wallah, he was still on his sofa eating seeds! He arrived at 9 PM and said: Sorry, the traffic was very bad. If we say one hour, it means three hours. If we say tomorrow, it means next week. In Europe and Japan, one minute is one minute. But here, we have Inshallah time. I love our culture and our people, but this thing is very difficult for work and for life. Why we are like this? Is it the heat, or we just dont respect the time of others? Please tell me your stories because I am waiting for my uncle now who said he is around the corner two hours ago. #personal #InshallahTime #MiddleEastLife #Punctuality #CairoProblems #TimeManagement #CultureShock #WaitingForever #HabibiTime

I need share my heart. I am 27, I have Master degree and good job in bank. But in my house, I am still like 5 years old. If I come home 30 minutes late from work, my brother call me 10 times. My mother always say: Dont wear this, dont talk like this, what people will say? They want me marry my cousin but I dont feel it. I love my family, Wallahi, but I feel I am suffocating. Is this my life forever? Can I be good Muslim daughter and also be free woman? Ya Rabb, it is so hard. #personal #personalstories #familydrama #middleeastlife #sabr #marriage #tradition #freedom #huzur
