A compass, I learned when I was surveying, it'll... it'll point you True North from where you're standing, but it's got no advice about the swamps and deserts and chasms that you'll encounter along the way. If in pursuit of your destination, you plunge ahead, heedless of obstacles, and achieve nothing more than to sink in a swamp... What's the use of knowing True North?

Limbo
My father went out of Palestine, we had to leave another time from Kuwait, and now we've left Syria. Everytime you travel from one place to another you have to make new friends, find new houses, new memories. Everything changes. Because you have to start everything from scratch.
