My speech, Under the Sky We are One Family “A quotation in Chinese”. These are the most beautiful words that I love, that I repeat every day, that I use on my Facebook and WeChat account , and that I hang in my bedroom comes from a beautiful song called : 黄玫瑰。 My name is 艾兰，my nick name is燕子. When we were born, we did not choose our names, our nationality, or our identity. And that is what is interesting about learning new languages and getting to know new cultures. It always gives us a chance to express ourselves in a different way. Not only that, but it also gets us to stop thinking about ourselves only, our history only, our people only, and try to change our way of thinking, so that we become totally different people, people who belong to every culture, and love all the differences between humans all over the world. When I first was learning Chinese I was so excited to choose my own name, the name that represents me, and have a meaning that touches my hard, like 燕子. I was also so excited because I knew that I will become a different person. The most question that I hated to be asked in my whole life is : "where are you from?", because I really did not have a one answer for it, or in other words an honest answer. I did not know whether to tell them that I am from the country which its name is written on my passport, or I am from that country where I lived my whole life in, I did not know how to tell them that even my origin is also from a different country, because I was always afraid to be judged by this question. I was always a foreigner , I was always treated differently, and that is why I always had a flexible character, that can change according to any person's dialect, interests, way of thinking, clothes, etc. I was in the eyes of some people who did not believe in the concept of that this world is for everyone, and under the sky we are one family, a foreigner in Syria, a foreigner in Saudi Arabia, and recently, a foreigner in Jordan. But because of what I believe in, I have never felt different.
