Hey, I mentio- ned my name earlier!
In case you wondered what's the meaning of my name
It's a wondrous name and its meaning reminds one to do good and forbid evil and act justly instead of unjustly and remember the favours and honour its bestower and cause no harm and be kind to echo joy and bring goodness.
Also, I come from a country which has 5 beautiful flags

Please mind me, I want to tell you more about myself! Hi, I'm Zakaria. I used to live in Manchester and had very difficult time and when COVID happened, more than ever I felt very, very sad and the best thing I ever can do is to move to another city and maybe things will get better in my life and the world, and I did move. Not long after, I had an epiphany that inspired me I was born to find the best girl in the world and become her bestest friend because we need each other, and we can have fun and do innocent and beautiful things together.

I lived and grew in different way to most people, and I didn't make any friends and after moving to another city, I learnt as part of my epiphany, that I need to make friends, and I would enjoy life if I do more than if I would keep living without friends and on my own, but there is a key I need first to find my bestest friends and it's with the best girl in the world.

Therefore, currently, I'm searching for the best girl in the world, so I can find my bestest friends and make friends and have fun, and since I lived the way I lived, I remained like a child and my epiphany revealed to me few things to find my bestest friends beside the key with a girl, who will be my bestest friend and, she is a child, and she has the most beautiful heart and the best mom and dad, and I hope one day I can find her.

Also, I have two dreams my epiphany revealed to me, it would be my bestest friends dreams and since I love Computer Science I have dream one day I go to Cambridge university and graduate with Computer Science and I have not studied GCSEs due to the way I lived and when my epiphany was revealed, I thought it would be great if I can find the best girl in the world and my bestest friends and make oath to go to Cambridge university and study for it along the way we become friends, as it would be their dream along as well as to enter gardening competition which I thought I would only be able to do and build something so wonderful and beautiful if I find the best girl in the world and my bestest friends and work together on such garden, and I hope one day I can do this as well.
