"I come from a land where the sound of hope is often drowned by the noise of struggle, but I also come from a generation that refuses to be defined by fear. We are the youth of Afghanistan—resilient, unshaken, and unafraid to lead. We carry the dreams of our people not in silence, but in action. Every barrier we break, every voice we raise, every hand we extend to lift another—that is our revolution. We don’t wait for permission to change the world; we create the path ourselves. Because we know that real change does not come from power—it comes from purpose. And as long as we stand together, united by courage and driven by compassion, there is no force stronger than the youth who believe in a better tomorrow." — S. Shuja Shayan
