foreign dignitaries

I made a mess of myself over a visit from some higher ups in the Lebanese government whose acquaintance my ex husband made through his work as a GIS specialist back in the nineties.

I was also so excited to know these two couples, an older husband and wife—two Christians — and their younger, Muslim—attache and his wife. These wartime friends carried such dignity and grace. Unfortunately there was an incident. The older woman hurt her foot and there was no taxi in sight and we had to keep walking and walking. We were in Manhattan. Finally we got to a coffee shop and could sit down. The trip was a loss after that.

over the years I remembered this trip to Manhattan and unfortunately I was rather ignorant and naive about it as I fell to such a low ilke after that trying to raise my son in ill circumstances in Florida. I kept putting it out there about these two lovely couples and the time that I had with them for a few days back in the 90’s. It was bad enough about her broken foot.

I broke my own foot here 6 weeks ago and now I know what that was like for her! It brought it all back.

I wish I could apologize but she must be gone by now. Maybe not.
