A #syrian bride-to-be prepares to leave the hair salon to go to her wedding ceremony. She met her groom via #whatsapp. They both live on the outskirts of the #zaatari #refugeecamp. Her name is Jawahir (translates to Jewels). She is 33 years old and her groom is 27.
Although this is her wedding day she is finding it very difficult to feel happy since 48 hours ago she received news that her cousin had been killed fighting with the #FSA against the regime in her village of #Dira'a in #Syria.

“Empires collapse,
ReplyDeleteCivilizations disappear,
Health deteriorates
And bodies turn to ash,
But life will always go on”
