I deactivated my facebook account. I don’t really use it anymore and I don’t see the point of it either. It is nice to see what people post; stay updated with current events, or the most popular videos / songs but I become very uncomfortable with all sort of privacy issue or lack of privacy associated with my online presence. Maybe I am paranoid, I don’t know, but I will try this and if I pass the trial, I will delete my account once and for all.

So far, I was good. I didn't log into Facebook at all. I am thinking if I try to keep my friendship and stay in touch via email, that is acceptable too. What we were doing before facebook? ;)

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 t...
