The rest

Yesterday over coffee, I had a brief but deep conversation with a friend questioning if we were a left to right world or a right to left world. Could we be both?

Yes, these are some things I discuss over coffee, I’m a deep thinker AND a lot of fun to be with.

After said conversation and 1.5 hours of sleep, I jumped out of bed because something told me I needed to teach myself how to write “the rest” in Arabic. I’ve been working on a piece that has the working title The Rest Is Yet To Come, with an arrow pointing to the viewers right. All of a sudden, this morning, it didn’t feel like it represented who we are, something missing, not inclusive enough.

In my morning haze I asked Siri who spoke Arabic, and with his sexy Australian accent he told me “The answer is about 221 million people”. I said thank you Siri, that must be why I felt the piece was lacking something. How small minded of me to think that everyone lived left to right, I know better.

Side note - yes I have Siri set up as a sexy Australian man. Why?  Because I can, that’s why.

So here is my first attempt at writing “the rest” in Arabic. I’ve already mastered the word love. You should try that one, it feels amazing!
