Tomorrow I will leave Rome, where I have spent the last week, for Afghanistan. I will spend the summer doing research, based in Jalalabad but will also sometimes travel to other cities. This blog will be about my experiences.
Ever since Happiness heard your name It has been running through the streets Trying to find you.
And several times in the last week, God Himself has even come to my door- Asking me for your address!
Once I said, “God, I thought You knew everything. Why are You asking me Where Your lovers live?”
And the Beloved replied,
Indeed, Hafiz, I do know Everything – But it is fun playing dumb once in a while. And I love intimate chat And the warmth of your heart’s fire.
Maybe we should make this poem into a song- I think it has potential!
How far does this refrain sound, For I know it is a Truth:
Ever since Happiness heard your name, It has been running through the streets Trying to find you. And several times in the last week, God Himself has come to my door- So sweetly asking for your address, Wanting the beautiful warmth of your heart’s fire.
I am an anthropology PhD student focusing reasearch on women involved in business and NGOs that produce embroidery, handicrafts, and textiles. I am originally from Mesa, Arizona, lived last year in Indiana, and next year will move to the Boston/Connecticut area. In the past I was a teacher in Arizona and Los Angeles, a Peace Corps volunteer in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, and a graduate student at Georgetown University in Washington, DC, where I received a Master's degree in Eurasian, Russian, and East European studies.
