Wow!! We have entered the modern world!! We got MAILBOXES!!! It is really, ahhhhh...I simply can't find the words to describe the feeling of having a mailbox. It has our name, a lock, and we even got keys!!!!! When my husband called me to tell me that we have a mailbox, I was so fulfilled. When you live in a country like Egypt, one of the developing countries in the world, you find pleasure in the smallest things. I am sure that even with the mailboxes, we will all be picking our mail off the table located at the front entrance, or even off the floor, or perhaps on any given day, it may be stuck in the window of the well of our building. To have the mailman or bowab actually PUT our mail inside, is really asking to much. It is enough that we have the opportunity to SAY that we have a mailbox. To actually be able to use it would be simply, asking to much!

Until next time,

A Woman of Egypt
