ethel-baraona: You ask: What is the meaning of “refugee”?They will say: One who is uprooted from his homeland.You ask: What is the meaning of “homeland”?They will say: The house, the mulberry tree, the chicken coop, the beehive, the smell of bread, and the first sky.You ask: Can a word of eight letters be big enough for all of these, yet too small for us? —Mahmoud Darwish. “In the Presence of Absence.” -- source link
