Egypt not bad , Government that make it bad but good people on it make u feel that it still good place to live in but from my opinion no way for change , we lost

egypt is not bad and never will be as place to live ..before the revolution things was worst than now and we been live there and we were happy but why ppl speak bad about it now. here it is what happen in egypt is before revolution ppl wasn't care about what government doing cuz what ever they say or do government will not consider after the revolution ppl always follow what government did and said they thought that the country will change for much more better and they been waiting for that but after the revolution nothing change cuz change need time that's why they are upset there

Hi there,

It is not that bad when it comes to the kindness soul and the family feelings we hold by nature, but when u gain other cultures and traditions and forget who u r and where u are and who's around u then this is definitely not the one u r expecting. it is like as if u r torn between multiply directions religion, being style or being powerful and stressful to manage others or taking the path of walking by the wall.... u know saying yes can avoid a lot of problems. then u will know then that those are not the Egyptian u left behind.
PPl hate each other out of no reason  .............. think about ur work back in USA , u will then figure out that u may be dislike most of ur colleague out of nothing..! ( please give it a thought - u must get up very early to catch up u work for example) only the pressure who makes u feel this way and Egyptians have more than one reason to kill each other for.
Everyone here believes that NO Way.. the other could be right.Gosh, I hate it when the dark days falls like this......... I admit I have never seen it this dark before.
God Help u,  I know that it is darker than I could think about it if I was this far.

Best regards,
Haitham

you got some good point but thing is how you feel when you are in egypt you will never feel that anywhere else.. ppl dont kill each other in egypt ppl fighting for the point of view and thats not bad thats happen everywhere some got hurt or maybe killed that not the point of being in egypt if you dont care about the system

Wow Layla13 you are so right about its hard to explain because its a feeling. I've been telling people that I love NYC ao much but how come I always felt for the past 25 years that something is missing. I guess I can always try to back to Egypt in a couple of years because if I don't, I will always regrated . I can always go back to NY. But my point is like sam3kkad and Mohamed said..... Egypt is seems so bad for all the Egyptians who thinks that we living a dream outside of Egypt and the truth is that it's far from it. There are people here who have it all but they are missing one thing and that thing is time, no time to enjoy anything because we all working all the time and when it's time to have fun, we are too tired.

Thanks for sharing

True about peanuts   - but there is wheat every where you go in Egypt.  I'm also scared about the ingredient in the made in Egypt food. That means I have to buy stuff made in the US and that's way too expensive. Or maybe I can make everything from scratch an think about home schooling just worried that he might grow up to be strange from not attending school. Thank for the idea. I wish you luck  and happiness anywhere you choose to live.

peanuts arent popular in egypt. i never see anything with peanuts.

??? Foul sudani (as peanuts are called in Egypt) ARE popular! A cheaper alternative on cakes, basbousa etc. Also they sell it at the "lib" shop (shop that sells seeds and nuts); you will find it as a kind of bar inlaid in a sugary kind of thick gel, etc.

I am not doubting ur reputable feelings Layla, its just that I feel hurt to see it this way,
I appreciate every single letter you wrote for our beloved country.
But Egyptians who lives abroad has to know that the picture is not that perfect and there are a lot of spam.

Giving a thought do u think if u asked any Egyptian on the street nowadays will be he/she be happy to work and live in USA ? (i.e modern, clean streets, human rights and bright school.... what do u think?

I think that I am bothering myself writting here for only one reason if PPl on the shore are sigting a very tinny little smoke on a far ship holds all there families and thinking that is normal and call from one of their relative telling them that this is a real fire and the ship is on its way down and nobody moves.......... by then there will be no realtives or families.
