سلام (peace in Arabic) -  Gebran wrote "You have your Lebanon with her problems, and I have my Lebanon with her beauty." In times of hardship, though, we share the same Lebanon, folded in our prayers for peace.

In Half-a-dream, only the first half of the total number of pages is folded - unintentionally - to the word حلم (dream in Arabic). Quotes were void of inspiration to forge a way to use the remaining pages except for one by Gibran: "Do not dream half a dream" - and here was a complete manifestation of a dream that unfolded to half the size it could be.
