Zara-Booklet

2000-2009
Amman has changed from the days when we used to have
the “hara” as an essential part of our extended family. To
say that I wish it remained the same would be unrealistic
at best, and selfish at worst. All I can say is that no matter
how it changes, Amman remains the darling of many of
us who grew up knowing it as a village. We might feel
protective over it and in the process resist much needed
change. No matter what happens, Amman to me is like
a kid, I might have a burning desire to discipline it out of
concern, but at the end of the day I can never turn my
back on it. It is deeply and so dearly engraved in me.
