To Hajar.. that innocent child who once hid behind the walls of her silence, not out of weakness, but to conceal behind that stillness the greatness of an ambition that transcends all horizons. To the younger "Me".. the child who looked around in the storms of early beginnings and found no warm hand to pat her shoulder, nor a sincere voice to whisper in the darkness of confusion: "You are capable." At that defining moment, you decided not to surrender; you made your inner depths your support, your persistence your drive, and your pen your most loyal friend. To you, whose tender fingers bled from the pricks of needles, and who endured the hardships of the road to build with your sweat and burning ambition a solid bridge of knowledge—I dedicate this long struggle. I believed in you and embraced your dream when everyone doubted your capabilities and belittled your steps. Today, this book stands as a living witness, a white flag, and our delayed, resounding triumph over all the moments they thought we were broken.I was a ten-year-old child when my tender fingertips began finding their way through the shiny agate beads, learning the details of that delicate craft from my mother, driven by an innocent childish passion and a deep love for practicing it. But that innocence did not last long; days later, that passion soon turned into a heavy shackle and a forced labor that devoured the details of my life. This craftsmanship became a burden forcefully carved out of my school hours, my restful sleep, and the simplest essentials of my life as a child, solely to provide for my allowance and cover my educational expenses, which were my only sanctuary. Summer was a true hell for me, in every harsh sense of the word. While my peers were traveling, having fun, and enjoying their vacations, little Hajar was deprived of all that, working day and night through the scorching summer months only to collect, in the end, a very meager sum that was barely worth mentioning. They were paltry and unjust wages compared to the exhaustion of my shoulders, which ached as if they were carrying mountains, and my hands, which literally wept blood from the relentless needle pricks. The thin, harsh thread would cut through the flesh of my tender fingers, and on top of this physical torment came a psychological one, echoed in the loud voices of my family that filled the house with shouting and arguments every night, stripping away even the tranquility of silence after the exhaustion of work.Yet, despite the harshness and darkness of those days, I never allowed those wounds to define me as a victim, nor did I take that hardship as an excuse for weakness or surrender. I was strong in my beginnings, and today I stand even stronger and more resilient. From between the needle pricks, my resolve was born, and from the womb of that summer hell, my true journey of self-development and personal growth began. I did not settle for merely surviving; I turned every agate bead into a lesson in patience, and every pain into a motive to learn, read, and refine my skills, transforming that little girl who suffered yesterday into a conscious individual with a mature intellect that rejects restrictions. The same Hajar who endured the aching shoulders and bleeding fingers is the one standing today with her head held high, looking back at her past not with sadness, but with pride and dignity; for that early experience taught me how to rely on myself and how to be my own support and motivation. Today, as I stand on the threshold of a new chapter, I realize that those harsh threads were not cutting my flesh, but were slowly weaving the features of my future—a future whose boundaries no one knows, but which will certainly not resemble that darkness. The road ahead of me is vast, and the fingertips once shaped by pain are now ready to write the beginning of an entirely different story.
