Answer: Hamadi builds a life in America after leaving Palestine at age 18.

In the story "Hamadi," by Naomi Shahib Nye, the main character Susan meets a man called Hamadi. Hamadi moved from Palestine to America when he was 18, after difficulties in his life.

When Susan's friends have relationship problems, Hamadi says that life is about facing difficulties, turning corners and moving on. The best example of this philosophy in the story is the fact that Hamadi himself moved on and created a new life for himself in America.
