I decided to write this blog because twenty five years ago the world was witness maybe the worst nuclear disaster in its history. I don´t remember the accident (I was only five years old); the first time I heard about Chernobyl I was twelve, and four years later I read the book "Chernobyl: el fin del mito nuclear" by Santiago Vilanova.

The Capital City At Night

 

 

As soon as I arrived in Iran, I was eager to see the capital city, Tehran. I wanted to see how it has changed. So many roads and highways are built that I barely remember how the streets looked like in the first place. I also went to see one of the National Parks, Chitgar, on the west side of Tehran. It was at 10 o'clock at night and a little bit cool. Despite the fact that it was very late, the park was really crowded. People were playing vollyball.

 

Then, I ate one of the very famous Iranian

Missing you at moon night

月夜思







别君在秋日, 今已冬时节.

适逢月圆夜, 独坐自品阅.

窗外霜如雪, 书中情似结.

欲知念君意, 问取楼头月.







You left in Autumn, and now it is winter.
Tonight the moon is round,sitting & reading alone here.
Frost out of window like snow,feeling in book as unfair.
To know if I miss you, please ask the moon open air.

The price of peace

Here is an oriental parable which I read in one Russian self-help book and tried to translate it for you. Hope you will like it.

One merchant and his servant were sailing together on the ship. It was servant's first trip in the sea. He was sitting on the deck of the ship, yelling, complaining and crying. They tried to calm him, but nothing helped. The doctor, who was on the same ship, wanted to heal him and offered his services. The merchant agreed. And then the doctor ordered the sailors to thro

Hi,

My dear friends,

 

I came back to my home country, Iran for vacation. I wanted to blog every day. However, the internet connection in my place is not so good and every hour, it gets disconnected. I took so many pictures and videos for you to show you how Iran is. Some people think Persians are Arabs and speak Arabic or they get confused when you say Iran. They usually think Iran and Iraq are the same.

 

First days of my arrival, I just tried to be adapted with new time. I took some pills. Fortun

Time for reflection

This week in my country, the Philippines and the other catholic countries in the world, are celebrating the Lenten season. This would be a perfect time to reflect on Christ's death and resurrection. A time to reflect on the things or mistakes we did in the past. Be it a lot of heartaches, sadness, pity, sorrow, joy, and celebration. A time to look back and compare ourselves if improve the way we think, act and speak.

To ask ourselves the following questions.

Have we learned from our mistakes?

English Language Day

English, along with French, is one of the two working languages of the United Nations, and one of the Organization's six official languages.

Because it is so widely spoken, English is often referred to as a "world language", or the lingua franca of the modern era.

English Language Day at the UN is celebrated on 23 April, the date traditionally observed as the birthday of William Shakespeare. The Day is the result of a 2010 initiative by the Department of Public Information, establishing language d

Despite being a pet at home may not goof off throughout the day. In fact, I have many things to do as well as that double as various roles and tasks. 

As my raiser goes to work, my works are just the beginning. Usually my friends pigeons, sparrows and I buzz about what captures we have had yesterday at our meeting. Then I enjoy my breakfast and take a good nap whenever I want. After that, I normally practice a meditation and take a sunbath after my lunch. Sometimes I may find a cockroach or gecko
