Successions are of many kinds like the birthright of the "first-born" as in Jewish law. Or the ascending of the eldest son or daughter to the kingly throne. Or by election, to select a candidate by the vote of the majority. Or Theologically, an appointment by Divine Decree of God's chosen Messengers. Like the call of Abraham, Moses, Jesus or Muhummed (May the Peace and Blessings of God be upon them all) who were appointed or "anointed"2 in consecration to their office.Muhummed's (pbuh) successio

Mayumi's Poem no. 5

Heart 1 Pictures, Images and Photos

 

"You Painted Me Blue"

 

Why you hummed me the sweetest tune

Then sang me that sad love song

Why you wrote me that love letter

Then you'd say it doesn't matter

Why you had said you'll always care

But the effort had never been there

Why you made me dream of a beautiful world

Then let me woke up alone in my own

Why you promised me you'd be there

Then you kept me searching everywhere

Why you whispered me words of love

Then it seems you'll never be back

Why you said I am the one for you

But in the end...you painte

Today, what most honoured is to acknowledge the women who work outside home. I do not want to degrade this but, I think the job that women do at home is as important as theirs.My mother has always taken care of my brother and I. I don’t remember if I have ever left alone at home. Even if she went somewhere, she would come back very soon so that we could eat at least dinner together. Fresh nourishing foods were cooked by my mom every day. Frozen packaged foods, ready meal or junk foods were banne

Back On The Track!

After three years, finally, I could make it. Every morning, I wake up with this thought; To see my country again, to hug tightly my family members and relatives, walking in Iran, eating Iranian traditional ice cream, kebabs , breads, visiting the places that I had been before; the university, the streets, the cinemas, to see how they have changed. Now, that time has arrived and I am eagerly packing my bags but, I feel so strange. I am supposed to be more relaxed but, I neither can eat nor sleep.

You do not come across success just by hoping for it. To achieve true success, you need the strength of mind and body to struggle and work hard to reach your fullest potential. You need the right attitude, self-discipline and the ability to put your goal before your own needs, if you are really driven towards reaching success. There is, after all no substitute for hard work, and as Henry Ford says, “The harder you work, the luckier you get” – the more successful you get!

I Am Terribly Sorry!

I am terribly sorry for those who want to bring justice with injustice, love with cruelty, freedom with dictatorship, peace with fight and politeness with impoliteness. I wish we could understand the graceful gesture of a flower against the wind, the smoothness of water through a stone and self-givingness of sun to all creatures.All the best,Nafis
