The Forty-Eighth Meeting: The Midnight Library 🌠📖

Imagine yourself on the edge of despair, between life and death... and suddenly you find yourself in a mysterious library, its shelves stretching endlessly... Each book in this library represents an alternate life, a different decision, a different path you could have taken at some point in your life... And in the Midnight Library, you are given the chance. In this session, we will dive with Nora, the novel's protagonist, whose heart is burdened with disappointments, into an experience filled with deep questions about the meaning of life, happiness, fate, pain, and the ability to accept oneself as they are... We will accompany her through moments of regret and choice, to reflect together: **If time could go back... would we change anything?** What distinguishes the novel (The Midnight Library) is that it is filled with possibilities, choices, and inspiring quotes such as the following: *"Every life contains millions of decisions. Some big, some small. But each time you make a decision, its consequences change. A set of events emerges that cannot be erased, leading you to another set of events. If you make just one different decision, you end up with a completely new life story."* *"Regret does not recognize chronological order; it floats in every direction."* *"As long as books remain on the shelves, you can never be trapped. Each book represents a possible escape."* *"You don't need to understand life. You need to live it."* *"Every life I've tried since entering the library was someone else's dream."* *"The world has withdrawn from me, so it makes sense now that I withdraw from it."* *"Her self-perception was entirely focused on the things she hadn't become, the things she had failed to achieve—there were many. Constant regret filled her mind."* *"Live the life you imagined."* *"To be human means continuously summarizing the world into a comprehensible story to keep things simple."* *"The fear of love is the fear of life, and whoever fears life is already dead."* We are honored by your presence at the Book and Dialogue Club with Ms. Hanan Al-Ghammas 😇 As usual, there's no need to read the book in advance—we will take you on an enjoyable journey through its pages and quotes, discovering a new perspective on the world and on yourselves 🤍 May God bless you \*\*\*\*\* **Notice:** \* We would like to inform you that Book and Dialogue Club meetings may include general photography from multiple angles for documentation purposes.
