    Breathing in that dust is toxic

    • @Mina8ouloumat_ila_nour

      Of course, this breathing, especially from that distance is very harmful. There is a company called SNIM, which is responsible for extracting and dealing with iron. This company periodically loses one of its cadres forever suddenly, and the reason is due to inhaling the dust of iron, although they are in offices about a kilometre away from the place where it is extracted. In fact, many people demanded the tyranny of the office place, but because of corruption, no one was able, unfortunately, and many do not more lose their lives because of this

    Way, Way Off the Beaten Rails
    On a train ride unlike any other
    This was the fist time i wasn’t travelling first class
    I was travelling for free
    Travelling on the Iron-Ore train of Mauritania
    Wrapped in a sky-blue Mauritanian turban and a pair of ski goggles
    Crossing the Sahara riding on top of a wagon filled with toxic dust
    Endless line of wagons
    As far as the eye can see
    Sitting on top of an iron ore pile
    Again and again, I am blanketed in black dust
    A spectacular adventure and experience during daylight hours
    Witnessing the breathing views and sunset
    As it becomes dark
    The night becomes tough and exhausting
    The night is dark , flat and very silent
    The desert can be a lonely place for a traveller
    As I gaze up at the night sky
    It is filled with uncountable stars
    Such a beautiful sight to see
    You see nothing besides the starry night
    And the twinkling of the stars
    Unfortunately I barely slept a wink and ended up covered in black ,toxic dust
    As you can see by my hands , face and feet
    But it was an epic adventure I recommend for all to experience
    I'm just glad I made it to the other end alive and in one piece...
    Emma your a legend and a crazy lass.👩🏿‍🦳🤣

      I’m well ! Thanks for asking Emma,
      Yah,
      I’m well !
      I’m singing happy songs,
      I'm tap dancing to Frank sinatra songs,
      I'm dancing in the rain ,
      I'm floating on air,
      Wearing my happy smile as usual,
      It never leaves my face,
      Even on those days where my spirit feels it's been swept away or broken,
      Happy or sad ,
      Not wanting to let my emotions show,
      I'm always smiling,
      I plaster my smile back into place,
      To disguises my true feelings,
      My pain and sorrow,
      Never shows,
      All I can say Is " if I possessed a tail I'll be wagging it right now."
      Emma, I'm good - I'm great - I'm fine ....😆
