NourSpot: The House on 66 Houlahan Street
http://nourspot.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-house-on-66-houlahan-street.html
Saturday, June 22, 2013. The House on 66 Houlahan Street. There is a house in a neighborhood called. It’s a quiet two-story house, in an equally quiet neighborhood. And if you look close enough, you’ll read the number 66 on the top right corner of the garage door. That used to be my house, my 66 Houlahan Street. From Toys’R’Us. Oh, I could go on and on about this house, all the way up until the day it broke my heart to see we had hung our “For Sale” sign at the end of the driveway…. It's a beautiful life!

http://nourspot.blogspot.com/2013/10/i-wish-you-enough.html
Friday, October 18, 2013. I Wish You Enough. Written By: Bob Perks). I never really thought that I'd spend as much time in airports as I do. I don't know why. I always wanted to be famous and that would mean lots of travel. But I'm not famous, yet I do see more than my share of airports. On one of my recent business trips, when I arrived at the counter to check in, the woman said, "How are you today? I replied, "I am missing my wife already and I haven't even said goodbye.". Recently I overheard a father...

Saturday, August 24, 2013. Tripoli In The Sky. 8221; she asked me from the other side. “No,” I said mindlessly, and carried on. My phone rang, “Nour, did you hear the explosion? 8221; it was Mum. “What, Mum? I felt the glass shake but…” Seconds after we hung up, an even louder one exploded, this time shaking the entire bank. I froze…. I was still frozen. It still hadn't sunk in, how could an explosion have just rattled my hometown? Photo By: Mustapha Hamoui. But again, I was a lucky one. I was a luck...

NourSpot: Realizations And Resolutions From 2012
http://nourspot.blogspot.com/2012/12/realizations-and-resolutions-from-2012.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Realizations And Resolutions From 2012. Here we are, at the end of 2012, and I haven't blogged anything meaningful in months. I also just realized that I hadn't even posted my traditional "Realizations and Resolutions" post last year. Oopsie! But while most people hated 2012, and claimed it be one of the worst years ever, I have to confess, it was actually a good year for me… Let's recap! Now let me prioritize them, and begin with my Realizations and Resolutions. I still need to...

Friday, July 26, 2013. The Magic of My Tripoli. It's been a while since I've written anything worthy of my city. Over the past few months, I've kept my head low and my expectations lower with all the shenanigans and trouble that's been cooking up in the city. I didn't recognize it anymore, and if I called it by name, you'd only hear it a whisper: Tripoli…. This calling was from a group and event I oh so love, We Love Tripoli. So if you're still reading this, then with all my heart, I invite you to join m...
