Beirut electricity will be off in 10 minutes. I would stare at my phone and wonder what to do with that surreal news. For some reason I had chosen not to turn off the daily notifications when abroad. And over time it became a sort of existential alarm that I would welcome with a smile, a reminder of how absurd our lives are and how ungrateful we can be, a reflection about what was actually ordinary and what was extraordinary - and whether that reflection meant anything at all anyway-, and finally a return to the same old 2 questions: What do we Really need? What can we let go of?
