When Fua complains to her father about the bullies at school, he says to her - Hurt people, hurt people. She draws strength from that quote and imagines that every bully she ever faces in life is probably hurting more. I do not agree, but I understand the importance of the stories we tell ourselves to get through life. Like religion - The priests with the ark on the river and Mesineh preaching and praying in the marketplace to the women kneeling and bowing.

PS: I think there is a typo, in the lines before the picture of Fua's father, you say 'Fun's father'? Also, the link to what she wrote about her father seems to be broken. I found the story about bullying on her Instagram story though.
