Step-by-step explanation:

In "Hamadi," by Naomi Shihab Nye, the theme of the story is that when things do not happen the way you want them to, life goes on. Thus, Hamadi comforts Susan and tells her that one must continue despite difficulties: "We go on. On and on. We don't stop where it hurts. We turn a corner. It is the reason why we are living. To turn a corner."
