If you were Syrian and arrived in France to become a political refugee, if they come to Charles de Gaulle airport, maybe a cop would you put a card in your hand. You do not understand much French police and barely spoke English (French is, lest we forget). cl There are too many chances that the officer in question speaks Arabic. cl But you guessed - the survivors of intuition-that piece of cardboard cl that can save your life. Do you have an address and a phone.
If you were Syrian and arrived in Paris after escaping the carnage that is practiced daily in your country, find a way to get to the address that is printed on the card: Work Experience have enough - some call him luck to reach places that you stay safe and alive. Guards card in your pocket: black letters cl on a red background.
I take the subway "ligne 4". cl Strasbourg-Saint Denis station. What city wafer. And there you find all this jumble of people of all colors - here doubts. "You're in Paris?" You ask, and you raise your head, you see the Arc de Triomphe and the Porte Saint Denis you answer yes, this must be Paris-. Why are Syrian but have a culture. Careful not to confuse you with all this hubbub language - does not sound bad now, you stand and go to work. Remove the cardboard from his pocket, now rebregadeta force.
Minutes later, it's all wet - not with umbrella refugees for life in this city and it rains all the time-it's your nose that makes you a guide: you can feel the aroma filling the kebbe, meat beef steeped in spices and onions. You have reached the Syrian embassy in Paris. Welcome Chez Ahmad. "Marhaban" it says. And if you were a Syrian cl seeking refuge cl in Paris could not find better reception.
If you were a Syrian newcomer "Chez Ahmad," you would know immediately that this police, which will put the card in his hand, gave you good advice. Almost two years ago, too long for a peaceful revolution, which receives Ahmad others like you. He's your man. He will help you find accommodation, he t'alimentarà sadness tonight. cl He will contact cl you with a school cl volunteer teachers: learn French. It's not what you had always wanted, but you were right.
We could spend the same as X, known from Ahmad, the ambassador with aprons. X entered the restaurant one day and immediately recognized Z, but could not believe it. "Are you, really?" Exclaimed X, and "Z"-also known by Ambassador Ahmad, of course, could not hide a tear. X and Z became friends in prison, just over a year. Lived in an episode of novel.la, only it was not a novel.la. Separately, the two were able to get out of Syria and to avoid falling back into the hands of the respective torturers. The perpetrators were not Salafis or men of Al Qaeda. Chez Ahmad, X and Z are based on a mixture of joy and embrace pain. You know, linking prison.
"Chez Ahmad" is full of hope that the fall of the Syrian regime of Al Assad. Especially if Thursday evening. cl Thursday is the day of meeting, group therapy, assessment of the week, sharing the skype conversations, draw a future Syria. Also condolences.
If you were a Syrian who arrives in Paris, cl you might recognize "Chez Ahmad" famous faces. Painters like Khaled famous actresses like Fadwa, actors like Saad. You saw them on the "telly" when in times of "peace" and the TV looked deadly boredom. On TV, they go to activism. cl You too. You are not to ask for autographs. Them or to give them.
