The city with the most beautiful night.

Imagine this, you are walking after midnight, feeling safe, with people around you returning home, tired, but if you greeted them, they would smile and greet you back. Everyone of them has his/her problems, and an outstanding life that makes a great story if you cared to stop and listen. People here can open for you easily, and would tell you their life's stories, their worries, their concerns, their hopes and everything else that you want to know.

Then as you drive your car, you can see the lights passing by, you looking through your window to the same city that was fully awake just a few hours ago, and you know that in a while it will wake up again.

In spite of all the problems that people are suffering here, the poverty, the economic crisis, the lack of hope and the lack of a future vision, the people are still living, surviving, enjoying music, laughing at jokes and although there is no apparent set of rules governing their life, they have their own code of ethics that they live according to. How mysterious human beings are!

I think that you had known which city I am talking about. I have just returned from Downtown, Cairo. It was 2 am in the morning. The streets were not crowded. I went to Sherif street and Soliman Basha square, then passed by Al-Hussein. I walked for around half an hour then drove home. Then I sat down to post this, and it is your luck (good or bad) to read it.
