Excerpts from my phone... 8

Love is scarce in this part of the world but physical intimacy (I changed that from the infamous three-letter-word) is abundant. No matter how much love you give away, you will receive less and less each time.

In parties ladies dress in the finest garments and lavish themselves in expensive jewels, perfumes and food, but their eyes have a sadness in them which I cannot grasp the meaning of. A faint trace of yearning, a helpless longing of something oddly familiar.. Or am I just finding fault in a wealthy tradition of the ancient Arab world?
