To the, who is a 28 -year -old artist and dental assistantWas back with more reflections:
In truth, I see no hope in this country, with the exception of people who simply survive pure necessity.
Girls who should behave like girls but carry the heavy burden of a large family on their shoulders, bringing an overwhelming weight of unseat dreams. They are trapped in a world where the doors are closed tighter at every time.
How long does a woman really have? How can she, even for a moment, do something for herself?
When I think about myself, on these 28 years of my life, with little before I was 30 years old, I realize that I have spent my whole existence, just to remain a support pillar.
However, we are weighed down by traditions and customs from which there is no escape. The company dictates that a person, during his limited years, should finish his studies, find work and marry for love, by founding a family with joy. But for us, Afghan women, the story is different.
From the moment we were born, the world has trouble simply because we were born female. Throughout each time and historical moment, the most horrible injustices were inflicted on Afghan women.
I do not call women to expose their heads or adopt a form of erroneous freedom. No, I seek freedom of soul, spirit and mind. I want the day I can wake up, thank God for sunlight and kiss the day he deemed it worthy.
I want to live a life where my heart is full of gratitude, not a life where my eyes are filled with tears, asking me: “Why am I still alive?”
