UAE: Social Commitments · Global Voices
Amira Al Hussaini

UAE blogger e3ashig reflects on social life in the Middle East: “Social commitments are one of the biggest wastes of time and I can see why it is difficult to be dedicated to your work or be creative as there is always some social thing to interrupt you: a death to be mourned, a birth to be celebrated, an illness to be nursed, wedding parties, a formal majles gathering, etc.”
