deep-running water

well, i still can't believe i'm going back home!... home?!... well... um... let's just not talk about this now!! the worst part will be wearing a headscarf, and a long tunic or something similar over pants, esp. in hot summer of tehran!
as for robbery, ... i'll be careful, thanks for the advice. i heard internet is still in 56k-speed; most of us are so much depended on internet for our daily life here... going back to human-to-human interactions can be interesting, and perhaps frustrating to some extent!

this insomnia is back to me again tonight... aarrghh... ! so i'd better blog...
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
looking at a tiny drop of water as if it's an ocean is wrong, it can't even be as big as an ocean for minuscule plankton, neither technically nor psychologically!
but its burden can break your back if you are already over-loaded.
but when do we know when we get near the overloading point!?
we usually don't!
alas!

the life of each of us is just one drop of an ocean as big as the entire cosmos; yet there is an ocean in each of us.
some dive deep into it...to its dark, amazing spots.
some others, though, happy as larks, float on the surface and expose their body to the sunshine while whistling and humming a happy tune outloud!... totally defeaning!
what a wonderful world!

Truth is truth no matter who says it, whether Muslim, Baha'i, Zoroastrian, etc. Thanks for your response, Paradox. Authenticity is the key.

There are many open-minded students of Islam, such as Mahmoud in Alberta, Canada, whose commments I posted in "Hommage to Al-Azhar University." There are open-minded people in all religions and in all lands.

It is a sign of your perceptivity that you can see the oneness of religion, the "common points" right down to the roots: "... seems if you go deep down to the roots and try to stay there you won't really need to draw a line b/w say, you as a muslem and another as a Baha'i , and yet another as a zoroast, or christian ... ! but seems human can't stay at this level or find it very hard..."

We don't need to draw a line. There is only one religion, the Religion of God. There are some very perceptive people who promote interfaith dialogue, Baha'is among them, although there are limits to what interfaith dialogue can accomplish.

It is not crazy, rather it is a sign of YOUR authenticity that you are so open to whatever learning accompanies your visit to Iran. Along with your other readers, I will look forward to your reading of your observations.

Speaking of the other readers of Paradox, I hope my lengthy comments on your blog do not have a stultifying effect on their commenting. If you would prefer that I put my comments to your observations on my blog, just say so.

Have a wonderful time with your parents.
