In life, we face a torrent of difficulties and challenges, to which our reactions vary; some of us surrender to them, while others rise up to confront them with courage. But the real obstacle remains not the disability itself, but the inability to overcome it and transcend its limitations, to achieve self-fulfillment and resume life’s journey.
Ahmed Al-Mahdi, a resident of the Tissawa area in the municipality of Wadi Utba, was not born surrendering to his physical disability. Despite being married and supporting two families, and receiving a social solidarity pension, the difficult living conditions and rising prices prompted him to seek an additional source of income. He did not succumb to the bitter reality, but instead resolved to launch his project, establishing a tire repair workshop. His goal was not only to boost his monthly income but to face life’s challenges with determination and steadfastness.
Being a person with a disability does not mean that you are ostracized from society, but the opposite is true. The biggest challenge lies in accepting oneself and striving diligently toward achieving success. A strong will creates miracles, and whoever believes in their abilities can overcome every obstacle that stands in their way.
