to sleep with a prayer to the Beloved in your heart


Khalil Gibran's poem On Love from The Prophet, recited by Dorna Djenab.

“I wrote over the threshold of my house:
leave your traditions and enter.
No one entered.”
~Gibran


The Qadisha Valley. Bsharre. Watch and weep.

thank you, taste of B, for posting the link to Bint Jbeil when you posted the recipe for lentil kibbeh...which sounds delicious! I have made pototo kibbe before, but have never heard of using lentils. I watched the short video on the Bint Jbeil site and it was moving.
