To my parents, in particular my father who was the greatest mentor of my life,
To my family and
To my beloved sun, Saba who has brightened my life.

This book is dedicated to my parents who taught me how to love other people,
my honorable husband, my little daughter, Avina, who encouraged me to
move on. It is also dedicated to all my mentors without whom none of this
would be possible.
