______________________________

in the late sixties a young man made his way to the arabian kingdom leaving his home, old parents and brethren behind in search for the unkown. back then life was simple and so were people, he made his living by the sweat of his hard work and labour under the sun of the sahara to put food on the table for those waiting for him back home.. the joy of finally preforming "Hajj" was a goal he achieved with a sense of a great accomplishment, for doing so at that time and age was a dream that remained a dream for countless people around the world. between every two to three years he would go back to his village to meet his parents and family, and a few years later he finally went back for good to his home country, he got married and was blessed with two boys, and decided that making life better for them was his highest priority, and thus he started another journey to go back to the sands of time, and in a short period he arranged for his wife and boys to join him in his place of work.. whatever went through the mind of those souls at that time of whatever tales they had heard about these lands, they could care less since it meant being closer to that man. and in the year 1981 a new member of this family was born in a country his ancestors never knew, he brought joy to his family as well as a new light of hope for a better future, the father was already noticing his hair turning grey as time passed by, with one wish in his heart, he longed for a girl.. a little angel he could embrace and call daughter, and in the year 1984 May the 17th .. another addition was made to this blessed family, although the father felt grief in his heart, he did not show unthankfulness, for he was blessed with another boy .. Yes!!.. I had finally came out to see this world for myself.. with my hazel eyes staring at this world with astonishment and curiosity .. and thus my life story begins ..
