The war has apparently stopped, and the sounds of planes in the sky have gone silent. The Jordanian night has returned to some of its tranquility, which people are used to, but this stop is not a complete end as some might think. Instead, it marks the beginning of a new sensation that quietly sneaks into the soul, a feeling that makes one more capable of understanding the reality of Jordan, and more inclined to reflect on the value of security, because the war leaves a long vigilance in hearts and a persistent question in the conscience: how has Jordan stayed safe amid all these circumstances?
The most striking aspect amid these conditions is that the Jordanian child continues to sleep peacefully, not woken by a sudden light nor frightened by a power outage, and does not ask his mother why life suddenly changed, because the Jordanian state has always been vigilant and present in all its sectors, managing affairs without people feeling any danger, as if it were calmly telling them: Life must remain normal, and security is a duty that the state performs before it is even requested by the citizen.
By the grace of God, the Jordanian did not know lines for gas, did not pant after bread, and did not wait anxiously for petrol as people do in times when the bite of living tightens. Jordan understands the reality of stability, does not leave markets to monopoly, nor the economy prey to rumors, but rather controls its motion and grants people confidence that tomorrow will not be worse. Jordan is capable of protecting life and its small details that seem ordinary in times of peace, but become the ultimate wish in times of war.
And the roads were not crowded with the cars of fear and anxiety, nor did the fuel stations become long waiting areas, because Jordan is always prepared for any course, and does not leave people hostage to anxiety, but grants them the certainty that things are on the right path.
As for those who watched over from the skies and carried their souls on the wings of planes, they performed their duty to the fullest, as Jordanian soldiers seek the tranquility they leave in people's hearts, knowing that protecting the skies is protecting every child's dream, comfort for every mother, and peace for every home.
This is Jordan, knowing that security is an everyday long task that starts from the institutions of the state and ends at the smile of a child sleeping peacefully. The war has stopped in appearance, but the lesson remains clear: Stability and security are the true capital of Jordan.
