Dedication

To my family who support me all the time. To my father’s soul that is with me everywhere…

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

She has a panorama of her family in this book.

Her father was an educated man at that time and was successful worker in government organization. Because of her mother’s authority, her dad didn’t allow to have a contact with people in work and this family seemed had been always alone family in one of the busy streets in Tehran.

Kids grew up without any communication skills and was thirsty for kindness of others. As a result all of them had a very difficult and rare history in future. The other book which is called I was born to be an Immigrant of this writer, explained all about her life.

The one thing in this book as effect me emotionally was how a family could be so unstable when they have everything inside, but because of jealousy get desperate and cruel.

This reminds me of just one thing: FORGIVENESS.

The only way to free herself from her family was to forgive them and move along to the future.
