Wow, I can't believe that it's been a year since I last contributed to this blog. The past twelve months have been filled with ups and downs and with achievements as well as stresses. Looking back on it, I don't hold any regrets. I know that the year to come will be a significant one in many ways.
Next week I will be presenting at the Association of Israel Studies Conference at the University of California, Los Angeles. I was invited to present my Major Research Project that I wrote for my Master of Arts program at McMaster University. The paper explored the role of emotions within the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and how they are manifested as well as how they impact a potential peace process. It is an exciting time that will hopefully lead to greater opportunities.
On a more global level, the recent elections in Iran of a moderate Presidential candidate has created some hope for positive change in the Middle East. The coming year will surely be an optimistic one.
