i think that sometimes the best thing that you can do is remind yourself that there are beaches. lakes, rivers, and ponds. there are forests. little woods and meadows. there are canyons. gullies and mountain cliffs. there are rainy days. dry spells and scorching blue skies. that the world turns. changes as much as it repeats. that feeling slow today won't stop tomorrow's high tide. won't make july's blackberries any less ripe
I am just like any motivated and loving life woman, who loves her family, and job and has a passion of serving people.
As a result of my outstanding grades in my study and the excellent performance in my job, I have been a holder of different scholarship. I am also active participant in many research visits and scientific missions in many countries like Canada, Malaysia and Egypt. The last scholarship I have awarded was at McGill University in Canada. I returned back to Gaza a month ago before the beginning of the genocide in Gaza. 💔
Again, I am one of the 22 women from the developing world who have been awarded OWSD- PhD fellowship to pursue my PhD study abroad. it felt as though I was holding a golden ticket to a better life than anyone who is currently living in Gaza. But fate seemed to have another plan
Despite the dire circumstances, the kindness and support from friends and people around the world have given me a ray of hope during the darkest hour. When you donate or share my story, I could stand up again to celebrate my success with you🍉🙏
