For Noisy People

This must be what paradise is like;  So quiet in here without you...

Reference: Song lyrics

The Road

Life is like a one way road. You may not turn around as you'll crash.

Just go ahead if you are happy with the scenary or look for the next exit.

Forgive

Let's just don't forget that forgiveness of one does not equal to innocense of the other.

What a good audience!

After clergies, dentists have the highest potential to get talkative. I suppose that's the benefit of having mouth closed/wide-open audience.

Trust

Don't trust a thing you cannot throw out the window, esp. if you live in a state with death penalty. 

PS. original quote: Never trust a computer you can't throw out a window. Steve Wozniak

30

Lucille Ball says: "The secret of staying young is to live honestly, eat slowly, and lie about your age."

And you know what? It was my birthday today and I told everybody I'm turning 30. Between you and me, I'm just 21.

My last year's bday post.

Hide and Seek

painting from here

Hide-and-seek is a funny game only if played by kids.

Besides, if you play it too safely and seriousley, you may never be found.

Forough's dream...

(photo from Daddy Long Legs)

(A translation of Forough's poem):

I've dreamed that somebody will come

somebody .. somebody will come

somebody different

somebody better

somebody who is like nobody else

and somebody who is like the one he should be

...

wow!  (in my dream) 

The light is so good

The light is so good

I'm so small

that I get lost in the streets

... why my father who is not this small

neither gets lost in the streets

does not do anything to advance his coming?

somebody will come

somebody will come

the one who is with us 

in his heart

in his breath

in his voice

The one who cannot avoid his coming 

I've dreamed ...

"Forough Farrokhzad"

من خواب دیده ام که کسی می آید

کسی می آید

کسی می آید

کسی دیگر

کسی بهتر

کسی که مثل هیچکس نیست…

و مثل آنکسیست که باید باشد

آخ

چقدر روشنی خوبست

چقدر روشنی خوبست…

 من اینهمه کوچک هستم

که در خیابانها گم میشوم

چرا پدر که اینهمه کوچک نیست

و در خیابانها هم گم نمیشود

کاری نمیکند که آنکسی که بخواب من آمده ست،

روز آمدنش را جلو بیاندازد

کسی می آید

کسی می آید

کسی که در دلش با ماست،

در نفسش با ماست،

در صدایش با ماست

کسی که آمدنش را

نمیشود گرفت

من خواب دیده ام

PS. Surprisingly, this poem applies to the religious belief in Messiah as well.

Free will

Not following your heart is not a benefit of the free will, it may be a form of Masochism. 

Love and Logic

Love has no logic. But if it had, it was a fuzzy logic.
