And then the first thing i said was is this appropriate god

Was is this appropriate god story begins in lebanon where
00:13:56.223 --> 00:13:56.824

It was a it was a trip to say the least.
00:14:12.706 --> 00:14:12.973
The least. so it was a just a position of
00:14:13.107 --> 00:14:15.576
So it was a just a position of we could get bombed at any
00:14:15.709 --> 00:14:19.447
We could get bombed at any second and then we did as well.
00:14:19.580 --> 00:14:20.214
Second and then we did as well. we're dealing with that.
00:14:20.347 --> 00:14:22.683
We're dealing with that. but then the polar opposite of
00:14:22.817 --> 00:14:23.451
But then the polar opposite of that was neighbors being there
00:14:23.584 --> 00:14:26.987

Community and it needed to be because we were under such kind
00:14:36.263 --> 00:14:36.931
Because we were under such kind of dire circumstances.
00:14:37.064 --> 00:14:38.599
Of dire circumstances. i remember vividly looking up
