The meeting with this guy was great...he is such a nice person and I think its may be because he is Arminian...he is going to help me find some contact. He told me that his grandparents were the orphans of the Armina and Turkey war:(and that most of Arminian people are scattered around the world. But he was soooooooo nice...What I realized more was that he kinda was saying the same stuff that my parents keep telling me...you know how sometimes you don't want to listen to your parents because you think that they are not in your situation so what the are saying might not be applicable to you..but from the third party point of view I got very good advices..I think the first thing he recognized about me was that I really shy..when it comes to strangers...I am completely shy...when I get to know people I would be very comfotable and as here calls it will come out of my shell;)I hope its going to end up well.

Mehdi and Neda are both 1 year older than me...and we always had such a great time..the last time I saw both neda and Mehdi when my grandfather was with us, we went to my grandfather's gardens out of the city...it was soooooooo beautiful and fun..I think I was 14-15 years old..and started this game that ended up running after each other..and Mehdi was after me and when running I ran directly to the branches of a tree!!!while looking back at him;)I got lucky not to fall in the pool that was next to it..The memories of those times...I cherish for life...The last time I went to Iran was to see my grandfather...and I saw Neda and Mehdi...they were a bit changed...but the history and flames are always there...:)I am very happy for them both..I wish I could go to their weddings...I love you guys wherever you are and wish you the greatest in life.

"White Flag"
DIDO is my other favorite singers, White flag is the way I exactly feel:
I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?
I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be
Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

last night I had a great dream. I met my highshool classmates back in Iran. Upon seeing them I felt bursting in tears but no trears came out!but I was overjoyed that I saw them..even if it means in my dreams..I talked to them and watched them eat and speak...it seemed I have seen them thousand years ago...I miss my highschool classmates sooo bad...I wish I can go to Iran and see them. they all gather every year at a specific restuarant at a specific day close to new year. I pray to God that I can go and I can actually meet with them....I know I will cry....even now that I am writing this it makes me feel crying....

This story was sent to me from one of my dear friends which I would like to share it with all my close friends and friends to be:)
"Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I would be twins!"
He was a natural motivator.
If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don't get it! You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?"
Michael replied, "Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood
or ... you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood."
Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or...I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.
Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or... I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.
"Yeah, right, it's not that easy," I protested.
"Yes, it is," Michael said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how
you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life."
I reflected on what Michael said. Soon hereafter, I left the Tower Industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.
Several years later, I heard that Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a communications tower.
After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.
I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?"
I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.
"The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon-to-be born daughter," Michael replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or...I could choose to die. I chose to live."
"Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked.
Michael continued, "...the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action."
"What did you do?" I asked.
"Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me," said Michael. "She asked if I was allergic to anything. 'Yes, I replied.' The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, 'Gravity'."
Over their laughter, I told them, "I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead!"
Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we
have the choice to live fully.
Attitude, after all, is everything.
After all, today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday."

Another great poem from Christina Aguillera
I can't believe how some of the peoms she writes is description of some many people's life:)
I woke up this morning with a smile on my face
& Nobody's gonna bring me down today
Been feeling like nothings been going my way lately
So I decided right here and now that my outlooks gotta change
That's why I'm gonna
Say goodbye to all the tears I've cried
For everytime somebody hurt my pride
Feeling like they won't let me live life
& Take the time to look at what is mine
I see every lesson completely
I thank God for what I got from above
I believe they can take anything from me
But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace
They can say all they wanna say about me
But I'm gonna carry on
Keep on singing my song
I never wanna dwell on my pain again
There's no use in reliving how I hurt back then
Remembering all of the hell I felt when I was running out of faith
Every step I vowed to take was towards a better day
Cos I'm about to
Say goodbye to every single lie
& All the fears I've held too long inside
Everytime I felt I could try
All the negativity I had inside
For too long I've been struggling. I couldn't go on
But now I've found I'm feeling strong and moving on
I believe they can take anything from me
But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace
They can say all they wanna say about me
But I'm gonna carry on
I'm gonna keep on singing my song
Whoa, & everytime I tried to be what they wanted from me
It never came naturally
So I ended up in misery, wasn't able to see
All the good around me
They wasted so much energy on what they thought of me
Simply just remembering to breathe
I'm human, I ain't able to please
Everyone at the same time, so now I find
My peace of mind living one day at a time
I'm human and I answer to one god
It comes down to one love
Until I get to heave above
I've made the decision
Never to give up
Til the I day I die no matter what
I'm gonna carry on & keep on singing my song.....
(They can't take anything from me)
I believe that they can do what they wanna.
Say what they wanna say
(They can say what they wanna)
But I'm gonna keep on
(Keep on )
I believe it
That they can take from me
But they can't take my inner peace
