Product Description
by Atiya Saithna (Author)
This moving memoir traces the emotional and spiritual journey of a woman whose life unfolds across continents, roles, and seasons of faith. From the bustling streets of Karachi to the classrooms and the corridors of London schools, she shares her story as a daughter, wife, mother, teacher, and ultimately carer.
Through richly textured memories and moments of quiet resilience, the author invites readers into a life marked by love, sacrifice, and devotion - not only to family and faith, but to the quiet calling of service, fulfilling her father's vision, which he mentions to her in a letter in 1973. His words were:
The greatest pleasure of my life would be to see my children and grandchildren on the right path, in the service of mankind at large. We must understand and fulfil the purpose of life, the purpose for which God created us, to serve Him and humanity.
As her husband slowly fades into the fog of Alzheimer's, her words remain clear-eyed and deeply human, capturing the grief, tenderness, and courage that define a lifetime of shared memories.
Told with honesty, grace, and spiritual depth, this book offers a powerful reflection on womanhood, migration, marriage, and what it means to remain steadfast when life takes an unexpected turn.
