Dedication
To my beloved wife;
In the face of adversity, you've shown me what true courage and resilience look like (even when I’m the one needing the pep talk). Your strength in battling multiple sclerosis has been my greatest inspiration, teaching me the real meaning of gratitude and humility. This book is dedicated to you, my endless source of love and inspiration, and the occasional reality check.
To my three precious gems;
You illuminate my life and brighten my days like a spring garden full of roses, with a few thorns thrown in just to keep me on my toes. Your boundless affection for your mom and constant support remind me daily of the beauty in our journey together as a family. Your presence fills our home with warmth, joy, and just the right amount of mischief.
To the unsung heroes;
and cherished friends who stood by me in the shadows, your silent strength and support were the light posts on my journey to self-discovery and inner mastery. Thank you for being there when I needed it most, and for putting up with my quirks along the way.
With all my heart,
Mohammed Alnabi
