in taking notes for my next chapter i was looking through some old journal entries and stumbled across this piece on rabat, made me smile so i thought i’d share.

“i feel for it.
yet, i wonder how it is so beautiful, its character, all that makes it up. the people so often piss me off due to the cultural dissonances, and moroccans in general seem lackadaisical when it comes to organizing major civic type things. like commerce, cultural events, sanitation, etc. so how can a city full of people who don’t give a fuck be so beautiful? i always felt like cities reflect the spirit of their inhabitants, that the cities rise up out of the mental collective. so where the fuck did rabat come from? hehe. of course its a big mix of colonial influences, strange cultural mixes all over the place. i wonder if the things i find most beautiful are the moroccan side, the french side, the harmonious mixes, or the aggravated points of conflict.”

peace
