جنوری ۲۰۲۳ | روایت مهاجرتم از افغانستان در مجلهٔ AwareNow 🇦🇫

روزی در افغانستان، پشت کمره‌های تلویزیون از سرنوشت مردم و رویدادهای کشورم سخن می‌گفتم؛ اما هرگز تصور نمی‌کردم روزی داستان زندگی خودم، دور از وطن، موضوع یک گفت‌وگو شود.

افغانستان برایم تنها زادگاهم نبود؛ آن‌جا خانه‌ام، کارم، دوستانم و آینده‌ای بود که برای ساختنش سال‌ها تلاش کرده بودم. ترک آن زندگی، تنها عبور از یک مرز نبود؛ جدا شدن از دنیایی بود که تمام خاطرات و آرزوهایم در آن ریشه داشت.

بیش از هفده ماه از زندگی‌ام در جست‌وجوی خانه‌ای تازه و فرصتی برای آغاز دوباره گذشت. در این مدت فهمیدم که دشواری مهاجرت تنها در راه‌های طولانی و رسیدن به مقصد نیست؛ گاهی سخت‌ترین بخش آن، پذیرفتن این حقیقت است که دیگر نمی‌توانی به زندگی گذشته‌ات برگردی.

نخست به کالیفرنیا رسیدیم و سپس به دنورِ کلرادو آمدیم. این‌جا فصل تازه‌ای از زندگی‌مان آغاز شد؛ با امیدهایی تازه، اما در کنار دلتنگی‌هایی که هیچ فاصله‌ای از شدت‌شان کم نمی‌کند.

در گفت‌وگویم با مجلهٔ AwareNow، بخشی از این مسیر را روایت کردم؛ از ترک افغانستان، از آنچه پشت سر گذاشتم و از تلاش برای پیدا کردن جای خود در زندگی‌ای که باید از نو می‌ساختم.

وقتی به گذشته فکر می‌کنم، بیشتر از هر چیز دلم برای همان لحظه‌های معمولی زندگی تنگ می‌شود؛ برای رفتن به کار، دیدن چهره‌های آشنا، قدم زدن در شهر خودم و روزهایی که نمی‌دانستم روزی به خاطراتی چنین دور تبدیل خواهند شد.

در تمام این مسیر، محبت خانواده و دوستانم یکی از بزرگ‌ترین دلگرمی‌هایم بوده است. از همهٔ کسانی که در روزهای دشوار کنارم ایستادند و با مهربانی و حمایت‌شان این راه را برایم آسان‌تر ساختند، از صمیم قلب سپاسگزارم.

سپاس ویژه از لیجند پنجشیری عزیز و Allie عزیز، برای محبت، مهربانی و حمایت بی‌دریغ‌شان. داشتن شما در زندگی‌ام برایم ارزش بسیاری دارد و همیشه قدردان محبت‌های‌تان خواهم بود. ❤️

امروز در سرزمینی دور از افغانستان تلاش دارم زندگی و آینده‌ام را دوباره بسازم؛ اما بخشی از قلبم هنوز همان‌جاست، میان کوچه‌ها، آدم‌ها و خاطراتی که هیچ فاصله‌ای نمی‌تواند از من بگیرد.

In 2021 I had the privilege of sitting down with RJ Mitte and @alliemerrickmcguire @awarenowmedia to discuss accessibility and inclusion. When I watched Breaking Bad for the first time in high school I was shocked to see a character with canes like me. I was even more in shock to learn that the actor actually had cerebral palsy. RIP to a beautiful soul, thank you for being an inspiration and a voice for me and so many others. 💚

Every project is a stepping stone, and I couldn’t be more grateful for each one. But there came a point when I wanted to tell stories that spoke to me on a deeper level. I had the honor of sitting down with @awarenowmedia to talk about that shift—and what it means to me to go beyond “the box”. 🤍
