In Ancient philosophy, yin yang is a concept of dualism, describing how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary and interconnected. It represents how two completely different things may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Similarly, Beirut is the land of differences, yet these differences coexist and somehow become complimentary. The complexity of differences in people living in Beirut transforms beautifully into a power that has made this city flourish and rise time and time again.
