Since wisdom is knowing the difference between what you can change and what you were born with, I do believe that I, with much faith, enthusiasm, stamina & perseverance, can effectively change something. Born with challenges in the besieged Gaza strip, I am a 22-year old Palestinian who have managed to do her utmost to succeed and make her seemingly unachievable dreams achievable despite the severe limits our circumstances imposed on us. As long as I’m breathing, there isn’t a limit to what I can dream. Standing as strong as a tree against the wild wind, nothing would change my direction, break my will or dim the light within. I’ve worked as a English Language Teacher since 2009 and I am currently working as a Teacher Assistant at the Islamic University of Gaza (IUG); however, as the more I learn the less I know, I’d like to be always a lifelong student. With lots of tales to tell, I decided to have a blog of my own to scribble down whatsoever I experience first-hand. Here is my own blog: www.fidaa.me. My life motto is “I am like incense, the more you burn me, the more I am fragrant.”
