‎“You read too much! Be careful about your eyes!”‎ My grandmother warned me!‎ ‎“But, Grandma, I listen too much to the music!” I said.‎ ‎“Music is good for the ears and feelings!” She affirmed.‎ ‎“And Reading is good for the eyes. I enjoy A Tale of Two cities as I enjoy ‎Shahrazad; Both of them give me joy…”‎ Now I am 70 years old and I am reviving my forty thousand pages of scripts and ‎books.‎ I wanted to share some of them with the world! That is why I am here to issue the ‎English version.‎ ‎ This is my first secret.‎ I dedicated myself to humanitarian purposes.‎ Since I learned about Cable and his brother who killed him I knew that we are ‎sinful creatures.‎ No matter what we say, what we bargain or debate, we are half Satan at least. Satan ‎is fighting with the Angel inside us.‎ I started writing since I was 12 years old< for the last sixty years. Everything ‎around me was saying a story or trying to express his pain to me. Everything was ‎telling his secrets. ‎ In 1967 I published my first story in a local paper in Damascus. During that war at ‎that time, I started to realize that somebody likes to repeat nature when everything ‎lives at the expense of the other. A few years there were more wars, more and more. ‎Our area is full of unpredictable. A lot of them are carrying guns except few who ‎are carrying pens. I did not sell my pen, that's why I am free.‎ Thousands of stories. Thousands of poems. For me, everything is a story and ‎everything is a poem. The great Ideas are included in novels.‎ I found my way to the brains and hearts of people through consciousness. My ‎books In Arabic are going to be published in English with a totally different spirit ‎and procedure. ‎ They call it: "The Unique World of ZOUHEIR".‎ These few stories are just samples.
