I rested my nose onto the glass of the window watching the scene of the bare street and a stream of cold air leaked and passed directly to my face. Two minutes before, I was pampering my legs under the warm counterpane. It was about 8:30 am.
The early start of the morning reveals the coming of the long-ly awaited winter. I'm writing this and meanwhile my fingertips are frozen!!
On the last Saturday 17\12, Alexandria has witnessed the official coming of winter. This time even more 'powerful' than ever!
Mom has finally switched our cupboards' suits to our old heavy stuff. What makes things seem funnier is that Egypt has forgotten a season called "winter" that came over late this year. Even when we exclaimed in stupidity, my Slovakian teacher admits what we had is something like springs' fall in her country!!
Ouch! I'm not here just to say how frightening it was hearing the whirls outside and the noisy continuous flow of rain that radiates coldness along its way down.
Yet, for me it was a really contradicting fact that Global Warming is chasing the world and within less than 20 years –if not even less- our home world will be a figure of intangible fires and water flooding all-over the round wandering Earth. And we are still celebrating a "winter"!!
And here comes the tie of my mental conflict; beside the increasing CO2 that chases heat and put on "'heats" to the bare atmosphere, the submerged particles in our dirty air will play a leading role in preventing sun rays to the earth starting a new ice age.
That is it. As summer begins, I believe the world would turn to the ball of fire and as winter falls, I have an unsorted vision of tomorrow... Only time knows.
Jailan.
