You are all familiar with the Somali saying, "ninkaan waxa soo socda garan, waxa joogana magarto". The essence of it, I believe, is to plan ahead & understand the consequences of your decision.

 

With that in mind, I'm curious to hear where threaders are considering to live in the future:

1)Xamar Caddey/Somalia

2)Somewhere in East AFrica

3)Qurbaha

4)Retire and move to Florida

5)Depends on.....

My childhood fantasy has always been living in a big mansion somewhere in the States or Europe. However, living in the States for a while, I now completely lost appetite for that fantasy. The so-called American Dream represents a tasteless life for me in this hemisphere. You drive an SUV and own a big house, so what: Social life, trivial; family time, nonexistent; quality life, rare. Is any body in this boat, with me?

Hayam Girl we are going to be neighbors and cusbada iyo sokorta baan iska doonaneynaa

Being raised in Egypt...I would like my children to experience the simple life! with no stress whatsoever:) But I would want them to visit Somalia as much as they can.

[Nephissa]

I'd defenetly live somewhere in Africa, excluding Somalia.

It pretty much depend on developments back home. A safe and stable country will see the influx of those who have been away. They will in turn contribute to a prosporous economy and 'really' be at home.

 

Hope it happens sooner rather than later IA

 

As for now, planning is a fundamental part of ones life. Planning to catch a bus to get to school/work, planning on moving away from home, planning on settling down, planning on getting a job etc etc.

 

as long as one is happy (or content) where ever they are then thats all that 'really' counts.

I would love to be living in Somalia, but lets face it - that’s not looking like an option at the moment. So I would rather be a global citizen, a citizen of Nowherian [Pico Iyer - The Global Soul] We are nomads, we call everywhere home, the earth is our home. I’m conditioning myself to be at home wherever I might be. Currently learning to be an anarchist - to temporarily make Somalia a home.

A. Farm, I think, more or less that is a fact. For me, futuristically speaking, it isn't so much on what happened within in the past decade, but the rough path that is being dug by our leaders-all of them-for us.

 

Besides, we are active people, but not really civ-inclined & development-oriented society. That is what we need to become Global Citizens.
