As I finish proofing this book, I cannot but pause and think about my life. Think about beloved ones who influenced my personality, shaped my path and made me who I am. To Samia, my mother who taught me the value of resilience, perseverance, and hard work. To Wafic, my uncle who raised me as his son and gave me more than I deserve. To Sanya, my aunt, my second mother, and my guarding angel. To Randa, my beloved wife and my ROCK. To Leila, Sami, and Jena, the little shining lights of my life. ….. I dedicate this book.
