As part of the Writers Matter program, teachers from about twenty schools around Israel wrote and shared their writing together. The following piece was written by Writers Matter coordinator Amal:
To all the people that I know and have met during my life chapter
A message of love I want to send for being a daughter, sister, wife, and a mother
First, i want to say “alhamdolilah” for being me as l am and thanks God to creat me in a good shape and complete picture
I look to the skies so thankful for all the blessings that I get from you Lord, calling, praying, thanking and asking that me to you become closer
You always balance my life, despite i got the biggest worries and heavy responsibilities, but you gave me the wisdom of struggling and the power of a fighter
It is the uniqueness of feeling others’ pain, being the helping hand for who needs it, and taking all people as they are the same and not ” judging the book by its cover”
I lost precious ones in my life, I cried, got frustrated then realized your generosity for choosing me to be the worrier and the winner
Of getting the best dad that have even found on earth, and a very special sister
I got the honor to serve and took care of them, like you telling me to do the mission and go up higher
To get the highest human degrees of being an obedient daughter, good sister and successful fighter
The prize is getting my mom wishes to God to keep and protect me from dangers by calling God “الله يرضى عليكي” my daughter
The best winning of gold medal is getting an unique or even the best man on earth ever
A loving, caring, sharing, and supporting husband and an amazing role model father
That helps me raising four lovely roses in our garden of life by containing me and them and holding us together
To face the rudeness of life and fight for the place we belong to till ever
The holly place of The Holly Land that live do many years and was attacked by dangerous minds of haters
That want to convince people to live in groups, split them from the tree of union, humanity and cancel the meaning of lives if all as one matter
Hey you! You are totally wrong! All as one, and one cares for all, that is the point that we must raise the generations at, so do not create a gap and make it wider
I was born as a Muslim Arab, I practice Islam and speak Arabic and live in the holy land, my best friends are Christans, Druze, Jewish with pleasure
Stop mix cards together, acting the worst way and try to show that things are different by judging the book by its cover
Your tries will not be taken anymore because we are getting up that our differences create an unique figure
You will not cancel me if I am the other, and I will not let you live the saying ” the other is me”- it is a mistake dear hater
Me is me, you must get this and respect me as I do by taking that you are the other and I do accept and respect with a pleasure
