Time and I
Once, time offered ugliness to those who were in need of it, not because it was dark, rather, because it was ignorant. As the wise spoke to it patiently, it started serious reconsideration and made the promise to be both bright and beautiful. For time, there was a destination to take itself and everyone to, and it had to set on its journey soon because time passes fast. To make sense, it started offering the present to those who were in need of “the destination”.
***
One day I opened my eyes and struggled to feel the present. I was assured, it is time to leave the past to the past and feel the goodness of the present and walk with full strength toward ‘the better’. “Today is good”, said time. “The better tomorrow only comes through passing these good moments”, it continued. This meant that today is valuable as long as I see it valuable; and I concluded that this value should be reflected in my entity as well as all relationships and connections that I establish around myself with the option of holding myself from the uneasy souls. I knew that the good moments are here, for me to embrace, touch, smell, look in the eyes, love, and nod to with affirmation and, as soon as I did this, the goodness responded that it loved me too. It was then when present could be felt strongly in and around me.
I had felt hope. I had felt that the good times, the present, leads me to yet better times and eventually to the destination, the finality. I wondered what the destination is called if today is good and tomorrow is better… But I knew one thing: that trust is a powerful tool because times were once ignorant and then became light. I can be sure that this process will continue when I listen to the present good times, hold the present good times, trust the present good times, and act with their support to take advantage of the myriad opportunities around me. I look forward to tomorrow because today is good. I will live the good times to reach the better times, to be lead to the destination.

Trip to Baraghan, Around the Province of Tehran, Iran
We did many things in our trip to Baraghan:
We splashed lots of water around and we also became monkeys on the trees!
We competed to finish off first eating yogurt not knowing that we have become members of a well-known African tribe!
We inserted the knife into the cakes, celebrating two birthdays (Note: It was not my birthday!!! )
We dove into thoughts while climbing trees!
It was a wonderful trip!

Photos: Nature’s Breath-taking Ingenuity
I recently got an email from a friend with some amazing photos attached. These are some of them. Nature does amazing stuff and this is its everyday job, which we tend to ignore very easily. Examples are all around us. Hope you enjoy this set!!
