To

Those who deserve a better life

Good Feeling

It is such a good feeling when you enter your house and smell the fantastic odor of slowly cooking Mediterranean stew with healthy and organic ingredients.

Mind & Heart

Always follow your heart, but don't leave your mind behind.

Live or exist?

There's a huge difference between living a life and just existing! Those who live a good life, the life they like, have a goal and seeking a better life, they live; if they don't have a good life and don't recognize it, they just exist.

My hero

My hero has no formal education, no academic degree, but she has read so many books that can fill a library;
Always she had a good book or a newspaper in her hands;
She is my hero for her deep understanding, her humanity, her dignity, her honesty, her faithfulness, her loftiness, her bravery, her determination, her kind and intelligent eyes and her sweet and beautiful smile;
She was her own boss: never ever taking orders or giving orders;
She didn't hurt a soul in her entire life;
She had no pretensions;
She had strong will and no weakness and was respected by anyone who knew her ( her only weakness and soft spot was for her children, and her sons took advantages mercilessly as much as they could and were always greedy, ungrateful and disrespectful)
Her memory has always given me encouragement and strength and will be so;
My hero is my mother.

A must see movie

"L'uomo che verrà" was written and directed by Giorgio Diritti in 2009. He is a very talented Italian screen writer and director. This film is so powerful and beautiful and truly deserves an Oscar. This director is very low profile and has no pretensions; his movies especially "L'uomo che verrà" is a must see film and is unforgettable one.

Money

Money can buy a very comfortable life; money can buy people's respect; money can buy people! But what money cannot buy is the class and dignity. There are many people owning billions and some of them are sitting at high positions but they are still cheap. And there are many people who does anything, any base and low act, for money and sometimes it is to the extent that they cannot be called human anymore.

Fun

The dictionary describes "fun" as something that is amusing or enjoyable. But for whom? People are different and have different points of view: something that is fun for someone could be bore, waste of time or even a base act for another person. It is a good way to know others by finding what is fun for them and the things they enjoy. What they consider "fun" tells a lot about their real character and who really they are.

Independent life

You taught me the worth of an independent life and I am always grateful for that, my dearest father.

Hidden beauty

"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well."
Antoine de Saint Exupery

Happy Spring

We are approaching the beautiful season of spring when the pleasant breeze and birds' songs remind us of the change of season and the renewal of nature. The UN General Assembly in 2010 recognizes March 20, the first day of spring, as the International Day of Nowruz, and describing it as a spring festival that Persian people around the world celebrating for over 3,000 years. Ferdowsi, the great Persian poet of 9th century has beautiful poems about the beginning of spring that is in Parsi language (Persian) and have been translated into dozens of languages. Happy Spring
