In her novel "La Scala," Saudi writer Nour Abdel Majeed addresses the issue of searching for self and identity in light of the significant life transformations that a person faces on his journey to achieve his ambitions. She says: When someone you love draws your path for you...don't follow him. He wants to see himself in you... Gratitude and surrender do not create great monuments! There is something different inside you... something that deserves to be held in your hand... because it was created for you alone... and for Him alone you were created! . Fate's lessons are never measured by their chronological age. Its blows are never measured by their number, but by their strength and wherever they strike you. There are people whose fate strikes them with many random, separate blows that leave no trace on them, and there is one strong slap directed at the head that removes illusion from it, towards the heart it purifies it, and towards the eye so that we may see, or make us blind. Destiny's lessons are never in their repetition, but in their strength and focus There are lucky people who come and go from life, and they fight a lot like idiots, and there are a few unfortunate people who raise their hat to pain and see life for what it is..!!
