AMMAN has changed new buildings, new areas were developed yet it is still the same.
I remembered what I actually was missing. The weather is warmer than usual, windows were open to allow a gentle cool breeze, no rumbling of air conditioning as yet and in the early morning one wakes up when the sun filters in along with the sound of birds. The chirping of birds is what I missed most. Throughout the day, as long as the window is open, you hear that natural twittering.
I grew up in AMMAN, a chaotic city with underlying order. The streets that resemble village roads, no lane dividers yet there is some kind of an insane order. I fell in love here and raised a family.
AMMAN is where I lived my formative years, both as a child and as an adult and a professional.
I will never forget these hills, the houses surrounded with trees and most of all the quietness accompanied with the songs of birds.
