"And the slightly amused, removed feeling always breaks down as you realize that you really don't want to be so lofty and Olympian--or rather, that being lofty and Olympian carries within it, by tradition and precedent, the habit of wishing you could be down there in the plain, taking sides. Even the gods, actually looking down from Olympus in amusement, kept hurtling down to get laid or slug somebody."

I'm not sure I agree that you are taking more than you are giving back. I think Paris feeds off all of these people who come there for a year or six months or a week and are just there. Maybe it is different this time around for you but I think when you were there 2 years ago you had a community no? I hope you are having a wonderful time in Lebanon!
