"Look at these pictures ,I used to live at
this country when I was at your age ,It is called the Country of the glass
because as you see everything in this country was made of glass ".by these
words my Grandfather started his
fantasy story as I consider it ,he was trying to convince me that he was truly
living in a country where every thing were actually made of glass .WHAT A
NONSENCE GRAND PA!! He continues "well I see you so amazed so
what will you say if I have told you that every house in that country was like
a glass boat but instead of the fish people were living and to avoid listening
or knowing any news they put a thick
curtain ".
"My sweet grand pa it seems
that you forgot that I'm now 15 years old not 5 there is a huge difference even
If I was 5 ,I would not believe your stupid story". I think that I have made a mistake
by my respond , my tough words made his color
turns to red and shouts at me uttering "you are such a trifle kid, I'm not
a liar all my words are true and all
your generation is despicable because we
does not know what your grandparents have done when we were at your age ,we
have fight our fear after living 30 years wearing masks to hide our real
feelings and persuade ourselves before the tyranny governors that we are fine
and that we are having happy life. we were forced to live in those glass houses
to be isolated from the outside life
,they prevent us even from helping each other or to rescue a victim my saying
the right word ."
At that time ,I felt guilty
towards my grand father not because I
was convinced but I saw his real suffering in his eyes .
"My sweet grand pa I'm sorry if I made u angry I did not mean it
but my curious cannot stop to ask why you were living at glass why not houses
made of concrete or rocks to be truly isolated as you said." "Good question
my boy , living In a glass house is more
Humiliating, they made you see
everything but you cannot talk or react
because you are being watched all the time . but these did not continue for so
long ,the time had came to get rid from our glass prison . On 25th
of January 2011 all the people shout with all their force to break this glass and earn back their
freedom." "And did you succeed ?" "yes, we have, even people who were still
afraid we broke their glass by rocks and blocks from Tahrir square "
"I confess
that it's an interesting story even it was real or fake but I enjoyed it ,and I
have a last question ,were not you forced again to rebuild the glass house and
live in it.?? "yes, my smart boy
after our screaming compact some futile parties tried to imprison us again but
we were learned enough our lesson and the nation who taste freedom cannot be
disadvantaged again from it anymore."
