Do we count how many days we have left before we expire or before the world ends, whichever comes first? What is there to worry about? That cannot be answered. We enjoy what we have , no matter how little or how much. It is all the same. One day, it will all be gone. Do we share or are we too selfish that we don’t care about our fellow human beings? Is that the right path to choose? We can only know the answers in the days to come! Are we aware of anything..especially other people’s feelings? We have our friends and our family….how much do they treasure us? Do they wait for us to die , and then quarrel over what we leave ? In that case, it is better for us to enjoy all we have and leave Nothing…..to chance! We even have our children whom we love so much, and sacrificed a lot for their upbringing. , but will they remember that now that we are old..We don’t know! We cannot read their minds. , but at the same time, we cannot be judgemental! They have their own lives to live….their own children to care for! Answers to these questions will only be unfolded in the days to come!

On Planet Earth, there are so many people living, and even some just exist because it is better than going into the ground! Of these, there are the happy -go-lucky type who , in their minds, have everything…..then there are the ” worriers” who have nothing and so there is nothing to lose! Are they singing “Born To Lose” ? Who knows? In that vast melting pot, it boils down to this…..each person is an individual, and has his/her own thoughts! But , at one point or another, they ask themselves questions which lead to answers which lead to more questions! Does she love me ? Will I hit the lotto? Will there be a better tomorrow? Do my parents know that I am pregnant? Will I get the job? Will I still be alive tomorrow? With all these questions in mind , we are really seeking answers, but as we know ,there are none and we become frustrated , and probably take it out on the poor homeless cat or the empty tin can! We seek help from above and beyond but to no avail! Can someone please help? But there is a person who can really give you all the answers you need. Even though these may not be the ones in your favor or you may not be around to listen to them….Just ask or send your questions to the all-knowing Old man! TIME!

Still thinking about where love has gone? Don’t worry! It has dissipated due to the warm weather. You have gotten old…It was not strong, to begin with! Did you think that your money and power could buy Love…the kind that lasts a lifetime? Sorry, my friend….you are far from the truth….You were totally fooled! You gave your all but still it was not good enough…..so, what should you give…your life? Would that be enough? I doubt it. Did you ever feel that no matter what you do, it it still not good enough……..there is always someone or even others in front of you….. You are at the back of the line You feel the hurt…the pain. ..the anguish. .of not being recognized! You try your best….you do your best..because of your Love….but it is all in vain .The worst thing about it is that you know but you cannot help it because of your Love for that person…All you have to do now is to be true to yourself…..stop thinking about being neglected…keep loving and do the best for that person you love….selfless love! In the end, you will never feel that you didn’t do enough! You will not find a reason to ask..WHERE LOVE HAS GONE!

Do we ever think about our last day being alive? We awake and later step out to work, vacation , shopping or anything else with never a thought of this being our last day! Everything seems so beautiful..radiant sunshine or even the snow.. birds singing, children playing and laughing..adults talking or gossiping! Everything seems fine. We have our beautiful family at home awaiting our return! Everything seems to be coming up Roses ! Wow! No worry…no fear…just looking forward to a wonderful day…and then suddenly we are gone…extinguished. We cannot even experience the Darkness…because we are beyond that. Life has been snuffed out! There was never an opportunity for even a last farewell! Sometimes , when we are ill, then we have that moment to do things like these…but how much can we say? Why didn’t we do that before? Why didn’t we enjoy the sunshine together instead of waiting for the darkness? Is there anything like a good and proper farewell? We ask the questions..but all we get are echoes! Should we say our Last Farewell today??? ((( THE FINAL GOODBYE

As we go about our daily lives, do we ever consider the possibility that this day may be our last? We rise, begin our daily routines, and engage in various activities, never thinking that this day may be our final one. The world around us seems vibrant and full of life, with the radiant sunshine, the gentle snowfall, the sweet songs of birds, the carefree laughter of children, and the engaging conversations among adults. Our families await our return home, and all seems well. However, in an instant, our lives can be extinguished, leaving us without the opportunity to bid a final farewell. Occasionally, when illness strikes, we are granted a moment to reflect and make amends, but how much can we truly express? Why did we not cherish these moments sooner? Why did we wait until our final days to appreciate the beauty of life? Can we truly experience a meaningful and heartfelt farewell? We pose these questions, but all we receive in response are echoes. Should we take the initiative to bid our last farewell today? ((( داحافظی نهایی

آیا در حین انجام کارهای روزمره‌مان، هرگز به این احتمال فکر می‌کنیم که این روز ممکن است آخرین روز ما باشد؟ ما از خواب بیدار می‌شویم، کارهای روزمره خود را شروع می‌کنیم و به فعالیت‌های مختلفی می‌پردازیم، بدون اینکه هرگز فکر کنیم که این روز ممکن است آخرین روز ما باشد. دنیای اطراف ما با آفتاب درخشان، بارش ملایم برف، آوازهای شیرین پرندگان، خنده‌های بی‌خیال کودکان و گفتگوهای جذاب بین بزرگسالان، پر جنب و جوش و پر از زندگی به نظر می‌رسد. خانواده‌های ما منتظر بازگشت ما به خانه هستند و همه چیز خوب به نظر می‌رسد. با این حال، در یک لحظه، زندگی ما می‌تواند خاموش شود و ما را بدون فرصتی برای خداحافظی نهایی رها کند. گاهی اوقات، وقتی بیماری به سراغمان می‌آید، لحظه‌ای برای تأمل و جبران به ما داده می‌شود، اما واقعاً چقدر می‌توانیم ابراز کنیم؟ چرا زودتر از این لحظات قدردانی نکردیم؟ چرا تا روزهای پایانی خود صبر کردیم تا از زیبایی زندگی قدردانی کنیم؟ آیا واقعاً می‌توانیم یک خداحافظی معنادار و صمیمانه را تجربه کنیم؟ ما این سؤالات را مطرح می‌کنیم، اما تنها چیزی که در پاسخ دریافت می‌کنیم، پژواک است. آیا باید امروز ابتکار عمل را برای آخرین خداحافظی خود به دست بگیریم؟

Enjoy…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6CiuSe9Rxc

Marriage…..the legally or formally recognized union of two people as partners in a personal relationship ( historically and in some jurisdictions specifically a union between a man and a woman!) So we are writing about a man and a woman. Documented or undocumented, that may be a question but it does NOT change the relationship or outcome of the marriage…..there should still be love , respect, honesty and the rest of the trimmings , even quarrels and jealousy…ups and downs! Sometimes each get to recognize in each other the qualities that will make a solid relationship before their marriage….they know the strength and weaknesses , and work on that! This is extremely important before embracing marriage. What about this? In some countries…in some customs…in some traditions…….there are arranged marriages…..( these may be documented or undocumented…not a big issue)..It may be for money or for other reasons…These people probably have never met or seen each other before, but are going on a lifetime journey….is this fair to them? They will have to spend time to know one another. ..and may not even be suitable for each other. So let’s say they spent years trying to know..adjust ,and finally Love arrives! What then?…..are they at the end of life’s journey? How much time is left? MARRIAGE is like a ship that is put out to sea and , looking ahead, there is no land in sight! You have to chart your own course to happiness!

LOVE ME AS I AM…IF YOU WILL LOVE ME AT ALL ! .There are so many people in this world. Many have experienced that ecstatic feeling of love and being loved. How many of them have had the full exposure? In love there is joy as well as sorrow..being together and then growing old together..what a wonder! The more we see and interact with each other, the stronger our love grows.. .like the oak tree! In a manner of speaking, we should do daily refill…saying it and also showing it. As I mentioned earlier, only some have had the full exposure. But some people make the mistake of , after loving someone, trying to change them! So was that really love or was that just a piece of dough which we bought and are trying to mold into a shape we want ? So , in the first place , why didn’t we love someone who , in our eyes, is just perfect? If you are going to love someone, love him/ her for the person they are! There will be a lifetime of love. But loving and then trying to do a love facelift will not last! That will be emotionally destructive! In the end, hearts will be broken..tears will be shed..minds will be devastated! Ultimately , it will be a disaster! so , “IF YOU WILL LOVE ME , LOVE ME FOR WHO I AM!

Being lonely and choosing to be alone are totally two different things! The first one happens and there is no choice there! We lose the will to live. , love and laugh…there is no moonlight nor sunshine in our lives. There is no friend nor foe.. we sleep and even exist in our own misery ..our own sorrow…our own world. We find it extremely difficult to allow anyone to enter and pollute our world of sadness. They are not welcome! For the Lonely , the world has discarded them….they become outcasts..The Lonely moves but still everything seems motionless! It is similar to being enclosed and buried in a time capsule! Now , on the other hand , there are those who choose to be alone. It is not because they are not happy or don’t want to chat. But being by themselves put them in their comfort Zone! They are not angry at the world or someone….but just choose that way of living. That is their choice! But there is an extremely thin line between the two modes of existence…the two worlds….The lonely may choose to be alone ….or the one who chooses to be alone may ultimately become the Lonely!

It is said that generally man is a gregarious animal. He loves company…parties..sports..being ostentatious…numerous female companions! Without that he is surely lost! He wouldn’t have an opportunity to flex his muscles, in a matter of speaking. His egotistical attitude would be suffocated! So now we come to the introverts and the extroverts! The extroverts are the ones with the verbacious quality….Some just talk too much without giving others time to say anything! Now we have the introverts….those who are mostly within themselves…..they either listen or just dont care much about what others say…they ponder sometimes too much! How about the lonely ones? They have been let down by either people or experiences..They are mostly lost and need a way back to the surface! How about lending a helping hand! Finally , we arrive to those who choose to be alone. They either retreat from reality….or are just comfortable being by themselves. These people, sooner or later, lose touch of their emotions and become impersonal! They need some sort of stimulus to regrow the need to feel…to experience ..love ..laughter..sorrow and the rest to be Human again…Read…watch dramas…focus on what is actually happening! Whether it is joy or sorrow…Feel…Experience!!…This is what makes people Human!!

Have you ever hurt someone…really hurt someone? Maybe you didn’t think about it or you were just so insensitive ..You probably did it with your actions, facial expressions or words or even your thoughts.. regardless what language you speak or what culture you have! A HURT IS A HURT!! You may see how the other person feels by the expression..body language or even their mood…..but you can never FEEL what they feel. That sad moment just changes everything for them and that may cause a huge chain reaction even leading to extreme sad results! So please , try not to hurt people! It is always said Time heals everything….So what! Time heals but the SCARS REMAIN!!
