Birthday anniversary, an excellent alibi to start something new. I started to have a personal weblog in Persian since about two years ago. It was a really good experience to discover myself more. Because I do believe when you write something you can see aspects of your personality that were invisible before. Writing in every language has its own special characteristic. I mean with writing in a new language you add some characteristics to your spirit that let you see the world from another aperture or window.
Necessity for writing caused me to do this. Actually I don’t care whether somebody will read these notes or not. I just think loudly and write it down. I used to put one poem in each of my posts in Persian weblog. I plan to do the same for English one. Either I will translate them personally or I will use from other’s work. First one would be a short poem from famous Iranian mathematician, astronomer, philosopher and poet, Khayyam. This poem encourage to appreciate the seconds and enjoy your life at the moment in the best way that is possible!
Khayyam, if with wine you are drunk be happy,
If seated with a moon-faced (beautiful), be happy,
Since the end purpose of the universe is nothing-ness;
Hence picture your nothing-ness, then while you are, be happy!
