Darkness and Rays

A collection of literary articles written by the writer Mai Ziadeh for various occasions on many topics. She paid great attention to the issues and rights of Eastern women, such as freedom and social, political, and cultural participation. Mai Ziadeh says in the introduction to her book: I have become to admire people and envy them for what they have, but I cannot achieve the same, and I take solace in their manifestations of depression so that those manifestations become a link, even if weak, between me and them. However, I only increased the feeling of my confusion and helplessness, I only increased the feeling that I was an unnecessary imagination in the face of those happy, laughing people - even though this imagination asked of him for a lot of things and he did not know what it was. For a moment, I thought that I had reached the depths of despair and that I had drunk the cup of bitterness to the point of dregs. Then it was revealed to me that there is an intangible existence called happiness, and I understood that nothing is more cruel to souls than their silence and inability to receive that violent revelation and feel that deep sweep.
