Palestine

The homeland is a few letters, a word that is small in size. The homeland is like the mother and the family, the warm embrace of every citizen on his land and eats his fruits. The love of homeland is born with man, so the love of the homeland is inherent in the individual; he feels that there is a connection between him and this land that grows in her lap. And the love of the homeland is not exclusive to anyone; since everyone loves his country. Homeland is a symbol, a pride, and pride; therefore, we must defend and protect it with all strength, to preserve it as and to appreciate it for providing security to us. This country has rights that everyone must abide as long as they live in it, these rights include: preserving it, protecting it from all evil, raising it to highest levels, maintaining its cleanliness, protecting its public property, and protecting our lives in the event of any danger. The poet said in love with the homeland.

I am from Palestine. I was born and raised in a great city called Gaza. I have a big family, 3 brothers and one sister. I have two uncles, seven aunts in the father’s side and four uncles, three aunts in the mother’s side. So, I have a lot of cousins we are like friends. But this is not a huge proportion of existing families there are many huge families, so our family is small relative to other families.

The Islamic cities have two festivities,” We call it Eid”: Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Fitr. First Eid is al-Adha, Adha means in Arabic sacrifice this last for four days. Most people sacrifice sheep in the morning and then they distributed to the neighbors, relatives, and friends. Second Eid is Eid al-Fitr, Fitr means eating. We were fasting for the month, and then we shall eat in this last for three days. Most people in the first day eat type of fish it calls Herring fish, but not fresh, they put salt on it and they store it for a long time maybe one month. By nature, children are given money and daughters as well as mothers and sisters not only for children.

The capital of Palestine Jerusalem. It is one of the oldest cities in the world and is considered holy to the three major Abrahamic religions-Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Jerusalem is between the Mediterranean Sea and the Dead Sea.

Gaza port is one of the most important parts of Palestine. It is a very nice place. When we-me and my friends- got bored we were going to this port.  Also, in the morning we were walking or running in this beautiful place. Next, to this port there is a beach where we do a roast, play soccer, play video games, play cards and joke together.
