Memoirs for Kimya by Shafinaaz Hassim
We move through life as it moves through us. We make up stories in our minds. And often these stories overlap. We hope with all our heart.We dream. We love, often deeply. We experience some gains and some losses. Each of these moments leave an imprint on the rich tapestry of our souls. Sometimes the only way to share the awesomeness is by whispering a few words on the wind. Memoirs for Kimya is a collection of whispers and a tribute to the many people we meet along life’s journey.
