I am a child of Palestian refugees that was born and raised in NY. It is very important to know where you come from. A man can't know where he is going, unless he knows where he is from. May Allah return us to our land, Inshallah!

to be attached or to belong to a small corner of this earth becomes a strange thing at the moment when nothing connects you to it but collective memories and the trauma of your Parents. Thousands of Kilometers of distance and years of Exile did not manage to vanish this town from the heart. Al-Burayj will remain alive maybe for the fact that my access to it is deneyed and perhaps for dream of finding the rests of the barried manuscripts of my granfather. many homes will change with the time, but al-Burayj will remain the issue.
Keep it in mind and in the heart untill it is time to let go. But never forget.
