Valentine’s Day on the Tahrir square
The Valentine’s Day began earlier this year. All lovers celebrate their love on the 14th of February to declare their pure love to themselves and the world. It is always beautiful feeling to share these moments with everybody in the world. A collective love for everybody, even for the one’s who’s still not in love. But Valentine’s Day began this year earlier than we always expected. This year began the Valentine’s Day in Al-Tahrir square!
I guess everybody has watched couple of days ago the marriage ceremony on the Tahrir square. One protestor asked his fiancée to skip their marriage’s plans and asked her to get married now in the Tahrir square between the Massa protestors. His fiancée gave her yes answer immediately and they arranged everything in couple of hours. They asked their families to come to the Tahrir square to share with them and the Egyptians Massa their wedding party!
What a proposal! What a story! It is more beautiful than the fairytale one thousand night and one night. A man and a woman got the chance to declare their love to each other and get married in the middle of a revolution towards freedom. I ask myself how many people in this life has got the chance to be part of something beautiful like the one in Al-Tahrir square? I wonder how many novelists could or can write something like the love story of the Tahrir square? Gabriel Garcia Marquez wrote over love in the time of cholera. I guess if he knew over love of Al-Tahrir square then he would wrote over love in the time of revolutions! Revolutions like the freedom of revolutions in Al-Tahrir square.
What a moment! You’re standing with your woman of your life before the Imam and among all these guests to say I love you and I love Egypt with you. “Love is such beautiful thing and you make my day a summer days” the Bee Gees couldn’t say much more beautiful words like those words. In this beautiful scene the Massa know much more than heaven. They know that this wedding ceremony is their declaration for the world that they are free people and with love they will make their days and the days of the others in the Arabic world summer days.
Declaration of love was a declaration of freedom made by two lovers who wants to share their love with the blood of the others protestors who gave themselves up for the freedom of the others many lovers of the great Egypt. The Massa in the Tahrir square gave a new meaning for valentine’s day. They gave hope for everyone on this planet that human being will always raise free and will remain free.
Happy 3id el7ob everybody
