I have a mini-story to tell.
Or maybe a reflection on something...
It amazed me today as I stood in front of one of the greatest artists of all time- at least I think so- all giggly and blushing...how it was one of the major events of my life. If not the major one. For it is. I don't think my life had many major incidents of that sort...up until today. The amazing thing is; it was such a major thing for me, and an insignificant thing for him.
Today I met him. One of my favorite composers. Composer of my favorite album. Son of a legend. I met Ziad Rahbani today!!! And I shook hands with him, listened to him speak, asked in surprise how and why he hadn't visited Egypt before. Said that Egypt is always beautiful. I love my country. I do.
I told him it was nice meeting him. What on Earth was I thinking? Couldn't I have thought of a better thing to say? Silly, silly Sara! But then again...I couldn't, I was so much in awe!
So yes, I meta celebrity an artist. I met an artist that matters. I can't believe he was standing there with now thousands of people gathered around him!
Thank you
