Happy Anniversary - Agulians arrive in America
What a day this was 20…years ago my family immigrated to the US, what a journey that was. Fortnate to be alive and survived the war of the Middle East Lebanon.
Here I am touring other countries, and blessed to have everything. Family, friends and GX. Being in Northern Ireland and counting my blessings.
After our long day of plannign the community event, preparation for the St. Patick’s parade, we met the facilitators and organizers of the event Eileen and company who were going to help us take part in the parade. We had planned to do workshops with the children from schools and different communities, and have them participate with us in the parade.
This day out of all days ended up with a bomb scare. We had to stay at Farset, and wait for clearance. There were no buses or transport everything froze. We had to walk to town for 1 hour with our group and got a ride from our host. Thank God we made it home safe…I had flash backs and memories of Beirut/Lebanon.
Being alive makes me appreciate and be grateful of all the simple things in life. Never take anything for granted, but in everything give thanks…
