Thus, Despair Was Conquered

Greatness isn’t necessarily defined by making history, but rather by conquering despair and failure, regardless of one’s background.


This is the story of a little lily that flourished at SSSD’s Dafa Center in Saydeh Zaynab.
Z.S.Z is a baccalaureate student. She radiates hope, and is a living proof that a successful person never surrenders to despair and failure.


Her story all started from the area she resided in, which remained under siege for several years. With limited resources and money, she had a father with specific needs, who needed special care and health supplies.


Unfortunately, none of the latter was available until they were finally able to leave the besieged area. However, displacement was no less severe than the siege.
All these unfortunate circumstances made Z.S.Z a desperate, sad girl who could barely afford something to eat.


Nevertheless, this did not break her spirit. She never gave up on her dream to complete her education in order to help her father and family. Still, she faced many obstacles, such as their dire financial situation and the expensive special educational courses.


Luckily, she heard of SSSD’s Dafa Center from one of her neighbours. Once she went to register there, the educational staff received her with open arms. She was assisted with all the available means and educational methods, with the aim to fill all the missing educational gaps. Also, she was provided with stationery and school supplies to pursue her educational attainment.


At the end of the school year, everyone was thrilled to witness the little flower’s success, and she was celebrated and honored by the Center. Her story left an imprint in everyone’s minds and hearts. "There are no words that could describe such moments… The taste of success is indescribable, and I cannot thank you enough for all what you have done for my daughter!" Expressed her parents.


Every time our lily carried a book, her life flourished. Thus, despair was conquered.
