"Happy families are all alike; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way". 

I agree with the second part but what about the first part! My question is, whether there is any happy family out there. My heart is aching for so many people. I need to hear a good news - anything.

They are out there for sure :) But we hear sad news more since they always capture our attention as they cry out loud, that's the nature of pain in general, more get heard or noticed.
And on happy families I think it's more about finding happy people or a happy person. I've found a positive correlation between being a happy or better to say a satisfied person and the happiness of the family the person is a part of. It can be looked like the chicken or the egg story but I believe if you're strong and satisfied enough with what you are, the impact that it has on your taste for friends, your life style and other choices that you make would be HUGE! Those choices would stay with you or might haunt you- if you're not lucky- for years.
I still wanted to go on and on but I stop now, I wrote a lot! :D
Wish you all the best for 2010 and the years to come Daisy'ie aziz :)

thanks Behi jan for the positive comment. It just lately, I have heard of several broken families and it was really overwhelming for me.

But I'm doing fine now and I just got the news that one of my best friends is engaged. I hope to hear those news more.

p.s. you can write as mush as you want. I would never get tired of reading them :)

Things that really matter

I remember once when I was in school, couple of friends suggested skipping the class and going to see a movie. Of course the nerd in me couldn't handle the stress of missing a lecture. So I announced that I wouldn't go with them but I would gladly go to class and share my notes with whoever likes to have them later. I don't recall the content of that lecture nor do I recall the course but I never forget that I didn't watch 'the Banu Ordibehesht' with my friends.

"Be a rainbow in someone’s cloud"

Photo from here . “God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us- in the dreariest and most dreaded moments- can see a possibility of hope.” Maya Angelou  Some time ago, I had the pleasure of attending one of Maya Angelou’s talks. I was very excited about listing to her. When I bought the ticket, I told to myself that was an early birthday present for me. I went for the talk to be inspired and to figure out why this woman was so successful as she was. Although I never regret going to that talk (since I learned one or two things), the talk was not as inspiring as I hoped. I had heard better talks before. She is not one of those people that I call gifted public speakers. She was witty and smart but didn’t really do it for me. However, what I learned was that I can be a rainbow in someone’s cloud. When she was talking about a rainbow, she was talking about her cripple poor uncle who not only changed her life but had an impact on other kids in the neighbourhood. When she was talki

Happy Nowruz 1390!!!

Happy Persian New Year, Sal-e noe mobarak! I set my 7-seen table finally this morning. I want everyone to notice my happy mug which contains some wheat cat grass. The one I try to make from lentil, didn't turn out very well since I remembered to start doing it 10 days ago. The weather today was surprisingly amazing. I received some chocolate as eidi (which was a nice surprise too and from someone whom I was trying to be mad at), played squashed with some friends, then went swimming. As I was swimming in the quiet pool, I started thinking that I should be very grateful for this nice facility on campus and should take more advantage of it. I was happy but by the end of the day, I couldn't help it wonder about some stuff in my life. More thinking and analyzing does not help either; Some cry does though. At least I feel better now. I am just worried that I am on the wrong track. I wish everyone a wonderful year ahead. I usually don't right anything here in Farsi but I really
