Sarah McLachlan - Ice Cream (with lyrics)

God

"I am the wind which rustles your hair. I am the sun which warms your body. I am the rain which dances on your face. I am the smell of flowers in the air, and I am the flowers which send their fragrance upward. I am the air which carries the fragrance. I am the beginning of your first thought. I am the end of your last . I am the idea which sparked your most brilliant moment. I am the glory of its fulfillment. I am the feeling which fueled the most loving thing you ever did. I am the part of you which yearns for that feeling again and again.
Whatever works for you, whatever makes it happen -whatever ritual, ceremony, demonstration, meditation, thought, song, word, or action it takes for you to "reconnect"- do this. Do this in remembrance of me ."
Conversations with God trilogy-Second volume

Remember

"Many of the things you can count, don't count. Many of the things you can't count, really count."

Albert Einstein

Vocabulary session ; "We don't have these!"

Androgynous
Gynandrous
Hermaphrodite
Bisexual

I have been thinking A LOT recently about the vocabularies above thinking how many of these people i have seen here in Iran.One of them is a distant relative of us who has happened to be a talented surgeon and a poet. I do accept it as an abnormality, but denying it is atrocious! and when I think about that stupid guy saying "We don't have these in Iran It is as if saying in Iran genetic pattern is different !

Sa'adi Afshar; the black friend of childhood days

Such a beautiful and cheerful perfomance was it that made me go there for 3 successive nights, and each night i had seen sa'adi crying in front of the young group playing, singing and dancing simply reminding people how much they all need a little fun and laughter!

Where are all these going to take us?

Leaders of Iran's opposition movement are to make an unprecedented apology to the US on the 30th anniversary of the storming of the American embassy in Tehran.

Masule

That was a Nice change being away from the din of civilization !! Although I got really angry at some of the guests traveling with the tour because of indulging in drinking, all in all it was great; playing, dancing, enjoying the nice rain, finding new friends, playing pantomime on the way back - I love this game, I am wondering why I didn't play it before ! It made me use my brain a little bit !!- Wherever we turned our head there was only beauty and harmoney, comparable with all those beautiful little villages in France , and even more ancient!

Of all the traditional and unspoiled mountain villages in the Caspian Province of Gilan, Masulé (Masuleh) is the most breathtakingly beautiful. It's a cool 1050m (3444ft) above sea level and, formed by several irregular levels of terraced cream houses, appears to have grown out of its surroundings.

"The Joy Of Life"

This is the true joy of life. The being used for a purpose
recognized by yourself as a mighty one. The being a force
of nature instead of a feverish and selfish clod of ailments
and grieving senses complaining that the world will not
devote itself to making you happy.
I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole
community and that as long as I live it is my privilege
to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used
up when I die. For the harder I work, the more I live.
I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no brief
candle to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I
have got to hold up for the moment, and I want to make
it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on
to future generations.
-George Bernard Shaw

A New Start

That's enough blaming others (including my parents) for my own shortcomings. It is time to take steps towards building my desired life . It is time to grow. I have always been terrible at balancing between my work, studies ,doing my hobbies and taking care of my soul. I am used to taking one step at a time. Most of the time I think untill when I am going on this way ? All in all I am NOT enjoying myself and my life at all. A typical Iranian life style. Worse than that I am escaping from accepting that ! I wish to be more positive from now on.

Are these big desires?..

I hate being a woman in Iran

It was not a long time ago when i have heared this sentence from one of my classmates who quoted Madona calling K-h-o-m-e-y-n-i " I hope you die and be born again as a WOMAN in iran " ! At that time I just felt sympathy towards women who were living in difficulty. Now at this age i understand that if you only have a little wit you can suffer to death living as a woman in iran . Even those with little sense of humanitarism can understand this fact that if one CANNOT express her feelings and thoughts with absolutely NO fear is doomed to be dead dead ! If you can find a mentally healthy man or woman in iran well you absolutely should doubt your sense of judgment and you should define what "healthy" really means ! To wrap up if you want to live the way you feel is right and makes sense to you you are dead OTHERS will not let you do so . Because you are called INSANE in their points of view and things are even much more difficult for women living the way they wish !
