With Our Hands… We Tell the Stories of Their Hearts

On a day filled with light and hope, and on September 23, 2025, the world celebrated the International Day of Sign Languages. This day reminds us that communication is not limited to spoken words and letters, but goes beyond them to reach the language of the soul, seen and felt by the heart before the eyes.

 

On this remarkable day, the Y30 Family gathered in an atmosphere filled with love and appreciation for a warm workshop that spanned four hours, rich in experience, learning, and genuine emotions.

 

Led by the dedicated trainer and sign language interpreter Ruqayyah Abdu Al-Bakari, with the support of the talented Reem Hameed, we embarked on our journey with sign language. We discover how the movement of a hand can convey warmth, and how a smile can say more than a thousand words.

 

The workshop was not just about learning signs, it was about building bridges of compassion and understanding with our loved ones in the Deaf community. We realized that sign language is not merely symbols made by hand, but messages carried from heart to heart, filled with the true expression of love and humanity.

 

At Y30, we believe you are never alone. You are an inseparable part of us—of our story and of the very fabric of this society.
This is why we have committed to learning your language… the language of love. To stand close to you, to understand you with our hearts before our ears, and to assure you that we will always be by your side—listening with our souls before our voices.

 

What we experienced during this workshop was not just an event, but a first step on a longer journey—a journey of learning, supporting, and building bonds of closeness with our brothers and sisters from the Deaf community.

We promise to continue on this path, to carry your message with us, and to work together to create a society that speaks one language—the language of humanity.

This special celebration was more than just raising a cup; it was a journey of discovery, tracing the story that begins with a tiny bean nurtured in fertile mountain soil and ends with a cup that carries joy, inspiration, and community.

 

Under the theme “The Magical Journey… From Bean to Cup,” the event highlighted coffee as a global symbol of unity — a bridge connecting cultures, stories, and people across continents.

 

Each coffee bean represents dedication, craftsmanship, and passion — from the farmer’s care to the barista’s artistry.

 

One of the event’s most memorable moments was the engaging presence of barista and coffee expert Ammar Al-Ahlasi, who filled the room with enthusiasm and the irresistible aroma of freshly brewed coffee.

 

He came not just to serve coffee, but to share knowledge and unveil the secrets behind this enchanting beverage.

 

Ammar emphasized that brewing coffee is both an art and a ritual — from choosing the right grind size to controlling the water temperature and mastering the pouring technique. Every detail matters.

 

Each drop of water that touches the ground extracts not just flavor, but also a story, a feeling, and a sense of connection — creating a cup that nourishes the soul as much as the senses.

 

In closing, the Y30closing, the Y30 Association, in collaboration with the Y30 Institute, affirmed that this event was more than just a celebration — it was a heartfelt tribute to the timeless values that coffee embodies: dedication, creativity, and human connection.

 

Every cup tells a journey — from the earth to the heart — reminding us that coffee is not merely a beverage, but a way of life.
