Arts - A short True Story of my experience in Egypt

When I was pregnant with my second child in 2011 in Egypt, the president of 30 years was overthrown and it was a very bad state in Egypt at the time.  I was living in an apartment with my family at the time, and suddenly there was no food to be bought in any stores, and all we had to eat was the little food I had in my apartment.  My friend, who lived in the same apartment, had no food, so we shared the little food that I had among the 9 people.  When the food ran out, we all prayed.  The food ran out after 5 days.  I was 6 months pregnant at the time.  For 6 days we had no food, 11 days after being trapped in my apartment, there was some shopping with a little food I was able to buy.  It was only safe to go a short distance outstide, with constant rioting and gunfire.   After 3 months the shopping and grocery stores reopened, and I had to go back to work to support the family.  I was very afraid, but I had to take a taxi by myself.  Every time I went outside, I couldn't trust anybody and it was very frightening.

Activity - Lesire activities and walking to work

Every morning, I wake up and I make time for reading my Bible and for prayer time.  I do this every day because it is important to me.
I walk to my job every day.  Every night, I walk back home and sometimes I walk with my husband.
