Saturday night was Ms. Mahnaz Afkhami's talk at U of T. To me it was very interesting the way she described how the women organizations structured in Iran from local to national and then international...the fact that she is an independent lady is a great motivation for alot of women. Its very sad when you work so hard on some thing and then becuase of some unexpected incident all that effort is gone..that was the case for Ms. Afkhami's project..Basically the revolution ruined most of the work she has done and I guess it will take alot of time and effort to re-establish all those wonderful laws and all...family law which are very important, I mean..The fact that the point of her work was to give women economic independence is great..My own grandmother always used to tell my mom, as she told me, that women have to have independence..and economic wise..and that has been my motto for life:)becuase you never know!!!even here in Canada!!

After all the thinking I am beginning to realize why in Quran, it talks about great heavens and wonderful things that are rewarded to the good people with good deed..Its the MOTIVATION...I actually never thought about it that way..I always thought you should be a good person because you will get the consequence sooner or later in your life and that heaven and hell are both here, I mean they exist in life that we are living..but I finally got it;)
