WHAT A DILEMMA!

آیا چیزی مثل یک مرده زنده وجود دارد؟ من به آن می گویم “بله” چون احساس می کنم چنین است! در مواجهه با مسائل و خسارات متعدد ، شما را ویران می کند ، ویران شده توسط طوفان تراژدی هایی که از زندگی شما عبور کرد و ویران شد. شما نمی توانید به طور عادی در جامعه کار کنید ، نمی توانید دوستی پیدا کنید ، نمی توانید با کسی نزدیک شوید ، از ترس اینکه ممکن است آنها نیز از شما گرفته شوند ، و شما یک بار دیگر درد نیش تلخ تنهایی را تجربه خواهید کرد! افسردگی داوطلب می شود که دوست شما باشد و همراهان زشت خود را مانند غم و مرگ به همراه می آورد. آیا کاری می توانیم برای تسکین این رنج انجام دهیم؟ شاید مرگ ممکن است مسئله را حل کند ، اما شما کسانی را که واقعاً به شما اهمیت می دهند ترک خواهید کرد. بعضی از مردم آنقدر خوش شانس هستند که هیچ غم و اندوهی را پشت سر نمی گذارند ، زیرا کسی نیست که واقعاً مراقبت کند! چه تسکینی است! وجود شما فقط باعث درد دیگران می شود. آیا پاسخی برای این معضل وجود دارد که برای شما یا دیگران نگران کننده باشد ، حتی خواب مهربان و ملایم حتی راحتی نخواهد داشت. چه کاری باید انجام دهم؟ Is there anything like a living dead? I will say “Yes” to that because I feel like that! Facing numerous issues, and losses leave you in desolation, devastated by the Storm of Tragedies which passed through and destroyed your Life. You are unable to function normally in society, unable to make friends, unable to get close to anyone, fearing that they may also be taken away from you, and you will, once more, experience the Pain of the bitter Fangs of Loneliness! Depression volunteers to be your Friend , and brings along his vile companions like Sadness and Death. Is there anything we can do to ease that Suffering? Maybe Death may solve the Problem,,but you will leave behind those who really care about you. Some people are so fortunate that they will not leave any Sorrow behind, because there is none who truly cares! What a relief that is! Your very existence only causes Pain to others. Is there any answer to this Dilemma that is so disturbing to you or Others,, even the kind and gentle Sleep will not even offer any Comfort. What am I to do?……

HELP…

A Facebook friend posts an image of Lovers, or Religion with a few well written romantic words or beautiful pious poetic quotes ,everyone gets crazy…lots of “Likes and Loves” ! Who has Time to notice the starving boy or the crying little girl…….. crying because they are hungry? No one .They are all drawn to Fiction rather than Facts … No wonder this Chaos on Mother Earth ……….Certain Facebook friends do not like others to post on their timeline. Are they afraid that you will ruin the “Purity ” of their words with your input, or your post will be better than theirs? Is this the age where we are all followers? Are we the “Yes” people? Don’t we have questions to ask? This is the age of the Wise and the “Why’s” ! Do they just write a few words , and in just a few moments, there are fifty people in agreement? Facebook is a two way street! I don’t know about others, but definitely, I am not a follower! When I make a comment, it will be a critical one. If I am unfriended for that, then, so be it!……………………………..This is one of the main reasons the world has gone astray…too many leaders of Religion, ( false or true, I don’t know! Only the good Lord can tell)…..too many followers ( those who agree with everything and don’t rationalize…don’t think)…Too many leaders of Politics. ( those who fill their pockets with the Tears and Sweat of the Poor , hard working People, and those Rich Ones who step on the little ones! I am not looking for positive reactions to my posts( only my friends can comment, and I have very few)… but I am making a statement. I mentioned to my Facebook friend about a fourth way of Thought…Brainstorm (Brainwashed) ! These are the people who have been indoctrinated by leaders to be “YES ” people. They have no control over their thoughts, but just willing to do what they are told to do…be it Religion, or Politics, or Beliefs! What a sad situation, seeing the Blind leading the Blind. …People should try to arise from the Depths of Inhuman Attitude, to the Surface of Self Control. Think for yourselves….ask questions , analyze, and arrive at an Informed Decision!….

THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH..

Last night, as I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling, trying to decide whether to grab hold of Sleep or let Her come to me on Her own free Will, I started having conflicting emotions of people and their Vision of Life! Then I had to question my Presence on Facebook. Am I on the right platform to help people, or should I travel another path where I am most needed? Of course, my Website migrated to different parts of the world, and reached several persons who acknowledged that they were helped by it in one way or the other! But to me, that did not seem enough! On FB, I did do some translations into Persian Language, attached them to images, compiled them and transformed them into videos! But still, I have to do more, especially at times like this where people need Hope……Hope that there will be a future for them. They cannot,must not succumb to these adversites because it will be similar to holding Hands, and being led by Death! Therefore, I also will continue my journey, and even though it is in Darkness I travel, I hope that I will exit through the Door that leads to Light!

PASTPRESENT

When i was young, i spoke and thought as a youngster: now that i am older, i speak and think as an older person! At a young age , i was treated as a person who had no direction, without knowledge, without purpose. Everyone took me for granted,,i was a little errand boy who cried very quickly: my mind was insulted very easily , and my heart was broken even without it being touched. Such was my life,,just a drab and dreary one surrounded with poverty and sorrow. As i grew older, i could feel the peer pressure, trying to please everyone, and getting in trouble for it,,and all this was done without parental guidance! Thus, i learnt not to shed tears, but to cry from within. The same goes for others who are now experiencing what i experienced before. So i grieve with them,,they say they are fine, when they are not,,they pretend to be healthy but they are not,,and when they say they are happy, they are suffering. These are strong willed persons who just need someone to understand what they are going through! Try a little tenderness! As i said, now that i am older, i think differently. Life , with its cruel techniques has sculptured me to be as i am today. Whether i am heartless or cruel or lonely or loving, it is all because of Life. The little happiness we have in meeting a few special friends is also taken away from us by force, or any means possible! Our river of life does not always flow in a straight line,,it meanders, meaning that further downstream, it is possible to cross paths again, just like Friendship. So should we lose out dear friends at this time, it is possible to see each other at some point and time in the future. So never despair. Fate and Destiny are also game changes.So please find happiness in whatever little you have now. It all comes from within!

A WEARY SOUL

“Through the storm,,Through the night…..towards sunshine ..towards light!!” is what we should be saying through these dark sad times! HAVE YOU EVER TASTED THE SWEET ESSENCE OF AGONY OR THE SEEN THE BEAUTY OF PAIN? THEN DON’T! The virus brought to surface our darkest thoughts , good or bad ? (Everything good or bad has an end. )Life opens up different pathways for you, but the final choice is always yours. Choose wisely! Your future, and maybe the future of others lie in your hands! In FB a single “like ” can never do justice to the beauty of life we are trying to portray. Thanks for reminding us that there is still life amidst all that is going on.We still have something to which we can hold on,,,,the fruits of Life! Always keep saying ” I am strong..as strong as strong can be” .Oh , Words of Love floating in the air, where will you land,,,so that i may be there ,, eagerly awaiting your arrival, which is essential for my survival,,,Now, if you dare, pray tell me it’s not fair, for me to be there , when all I care, is your Happiness, my dear! Can these words ” I LOVE YOU “be deleted from your heart, like a computer? Even if an open heart surgery is done to remove those words, it will be an impossible task because , my friend, those words are intangible! For me, music is just one of the most beautiful expression of our feelings….it can bring tears to our eyes, or smiles to our faces! Knowledge brings understanding, while ignorance breeds chaos! A special someone can wipe all your tears away with his smile, his words, his love, his feelings and especially his handkerchief! In truth there is sadness…..because you hide in sadness when the truth is revealed! A very attractive smile can captivate the heart of a rock! This is your life every morning,,,everyday…each one will take you somewhere else! CHOICES! When someone passes away, people say ” Don’t worry, you’ll soon forget”! But you don;t want to forget,,you want to remember! What is Death, but a dreamless night……………………but the very thought of it brings fright…………………………………to your weary soul………………………do not be sad, my friend………..i will be with you until the end………if not in body but in soul…………..i will be your shadow……just following you………no, not following you….because shadow and body are the same……….I take nothing with me….i need nothing…..people can take, share or steal………….but what i leave you …….is so much more real…………….this they cannot steal…….so, please , don’t cry, my love……..but be happy…..as the birds above……….that is all of you i ask………..because , who knows……..this may be my last!

FORGOTTEN FEELINGS

CHILDREN NEVER REALIZE THE DEEP LOVE OF PARENTS UNTIL THEY BECOME PARENTS THEMSELVES! (When you hurt your parents, you cannot fathom their anguish ,until that day you become parents and get hurt by your own children ,then you will feel that pain on that day when you hurt them. I know that because I have been a son and a father!,,,,,Due to COVID19 ,there is a price drop on everything, including Fb friends.Buy one,get 5 free.Limited time, so HURRY! This seems funny, but , i assure you, it is not!,,,,,Each day is a new day,,with new choices,,new ideas,,new friends,,new decisions,,and maybe a new life! Accept and move on or stay in the same hole forever! Do not be afraid of the darkness,,,,step into it, embrace and become one…..because after you exit, then you will fully appreciate the light. Just like life and death,,,,,to really enjoy and appreciate LIFE,,,,you must experience the loss in DEATH. ALWAYS WALK THE STRAIGHT NARROW PATH FOR THAT’S WHERE THE TRUTH LIES! DO NOT BE SWAYED BY FALSE WORDS! WHY DON’T WE JUST ENJOY THE SIMPLE GREAT MOMENTS RIGHT NOW….BECAUSE SOON THEY WILL BECOME JUST FLEETING MEMORIES!!! LOVE IS A MEDICATION USED TO TREAT HEART CONDITION,BUT IT HAS SEVERAL SIDE EFFECTS! SO BE CAREFUL!,,,tears,heartbreaks, jealousy. LIFE IS YOUR BOOK…WHAT IS INSIDE IS MORE PRECIOUS THAN THE COVER! HOSPITALS ,AT THIS TIME , ARE LIKE GRAVEYARDS ! IT IS EASY TO GET IN BUT HARD TO GET OUT!Misunderstanding is one of the most hideous creature existing in our minds! Should we have a little patience,night will become day, and there will be a resolution.How do you escape from the world? You can do that by changing your name, and some other personal details about yourself. So you don’t want to be found! So how do you escape from yourself,,,the person who you are? You can’t!. ””no matter how hard you try, or where ever you go, you are who you are! Whatever we do with our lives is our business . Whatever problems we encounter are our problems! .This happened because we didn’t eat from the fruit of wisdom, nor drink from the milk of kindness, nor partake of the bread of knowledge! So, it is totally our fault. DO NOT UNLEASH THOSE VICIOUS ARROWS OF YOUR ANGRY WORDS UPON THE INNOCENT! They don,t deserve,,,instead, face the guilty!

LOST TREASURE

Is this reality or is this a dream? Is it possible for a single human being to suffer so much, and still not complain? I thought dreams were supposed to be good, but they are not! Maybe it is better to return to reality where it may be less complicated. Is it in Reality or in Dreams that we find a treasure, and lose it the same day? Everything is real, but , at the same time , it seems to be a dream! It is raining, but there is no water on the ground….the sun is shining, but there is no warmth. There is the moonlight for us to fully appreciate, but still there is no joy! Birds are singing..children are laughing, but we are oblivious to all of these. A new day has dawned, but we are still stuck with the old day. We are falling from a cliff, and still we never reach ground zero. There are people whom we have known for ages, but we hardly recognize our own reaction towards them. Emotionless we remain..we see people suffering and still cannot empathize. What has become of us? Where have we strayed from the path we were using before ? Why have we become so accustomed to the dark? Is it possible that we belong in the dark? Are we paying the price for what we did in our previous lives? When there is no one with whom you can share, just keep everything! This is a very ambiguous statement……either refers to physical aspect, or emotional state…If it is food, and there is no one to share with, eat all by yourself,,,,if it is your feelings you want to share, and there is no one around with whom you can talk, then that is your fate. Accept it! Even though people may not fully forget the past, they have to now look forward to a bright future, where Happiness awaits them. But I’m sure that the past will somehow meet the future at some point in time! It has to do that! Otherwise life is just meaningless.

NARJIS

Is the world a happy place? Or should I ask ” are the people happy?” Of course, there will be various answers…yes,,no,,maybe! What do we say when we think of the virus situation? This also will have a big impact on our answers.People are getting sick, and dying daily..our family,,our friends,,our brothers and sisters throughout the world! We are helpless. All we can do is watch and suffer , both physically and emotionally. The emotional part is the worst, because we are dying whilst living. I am not exempt. I also suffer emotionally. I am human, and am not ashamed or afraid to share a piece of me. I couldn’t write because i lost all confidence:: i was so confused. When people are like that , they seek refuge anywhere….any port for a storm . But there was another variable which caught up with me while i was running away. It was an angel in the form of a human being who was full of kindness,and understanding…..instead of offering sympathy, she gave me confidence to pursue my writing, and follow my dreams. Maybe i may never see her, but her words are far more important! We are always traveling,, we have our own path, but this path always crosses another person’s pathway ,,, she was right in front of me, but i couldn’t see her, until she spoke! Then I saw her! ” Narjis, i stopped writing on my website since May because my mind is clouded. i am a little confused and I don’t know if i will ever write again. The burden i am carrying is getting heavier daily, I have no one with whom to share except you because you did see through my armor , and recognized the sadness in me!” So this post will be a tribute to her, and i know she will also encourage others to keep going, simply because she is that kind of a person!

THE STRAW

I am a drowning man clutching at a straw…i am the drowning man who is surrounded by dark thoughts..darker than the blackest of nights, with no end in sight, nor any hint of daylight! I am surrounded by deaths, fears, depression, anxiety and loneliness. I am an introvert who keeps everything bottled up ..no release valves,,no way to break that bottle except by one way only,,using a straw! You are the straw. So i am a drowning man clutching at a straw..you! Will you pull me out of this by lending a helping hand; so that i may again inhale a breath of fresh air, get the blood once again flowing through my body,touch and embrace land again ; or will you let go of my hand causing me to be swept away by the rough waters into the sea of darkness and ultimately be swallowed up by blackness? So what is your decision, my dearest one?

THE QUESTION MARK

That is put at the end of a question when we are writing should there be a question! When we are speaking, how will we insert that ? Will that mark be hovering over our words like the mouse on the computer? I guess so! Sometimes, in our speech, we make a statement but it ends like we are asking a question. That happens, especially when we are not sure of what we are saying, or what we mean to say. We are confused! Leaving out that question mark when we are writing, and asking a question really does change the whole meaning,,the whole idea,, the entire concept! Our message is being sent over a different frequency or wave length , thus confusing the listener or receiver. Our whole life is one large unique question mark, ,, unique because each person is a different , complicated individual who thinks the world is a playground! Our words say one thing, and our actions portray something else,, leading us to ask the inevitable question. Is this person for real? We go on Facebook , and see so many people with various profiles,,some buying friendship by displaying the merchandise ,,,some with false identities,,some pretending to be what they are not. Is this for real? ( That is a question, but this sentence will end with an exclamation mark! ) . We have a global pandemic, and people still behave like it is Christmas Time! Do these people ask themselves why their behavior is like that? Are we prepared to go forward,,and greet the past? The question mark is just a symbol,,but the antidote is the answer! Why should we be moving around with a huge QM around our necks? Are we still shackled with doubts about our pure existence ? It is time for us to stop questioning our selves, and come up with, not answers, but solutions!
