I am a citizen of this planet, who believes there is a purpose and mission to our existence. I pursue that mission and try to enjoy every lesson, every day, and every last drop of the pain and joy we drink when we live. I live a mostly regret-free life, with each failure quickly becoming a valuable experience and something to laugh about, and every success something about which to be thankful and celebrative. I do all of this in and around my beloved Berkeley, California.

The Traveler Talks....
I swear he grew taller and hairier in two weeks!
His older brother asks him: “So, how did you introduce yourself to people from other countries?” I suppose he is referring to his Iranian-American identity…I’m pretending not to be paying attention, but I’m listening intently...The Traveler replies, “Well it all depended on where the girl was from….”...his brother shakes his head understandingly and the two of them laugh in agreement! Something may have just gone right over my head...
ey jane man!
ReplyDeleteI can imagine Kavian asked him that question!
Cant wait to see little one.
You are so Mom Nazy!
I totally undrestand him when he says depends on the girl, heck I am only Iranian and once I told a Swdeish girl I am from Malta. I am glad he is home safe, you were missing him alot and I miss you already!
ReplyDeleteLeva Jan: Thank you! Come back soon and meet The Traveler, too. Say hi to Vahid.
ReplyDeleteMehran Jan, Alahazrata: I guess you understood that conversation better than I did! It is all a fascinating mystery to me. Be good.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are together again.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your days.
It seems to be an unexpected answer for you!
ReplyDeleteOh My !
ReplyDeleteIt is exciting to have some insight to others lives.

Thanks for your kind comment and I will try my best to be in touch.
Thank you Good Jan! I can never fully expect what those two might say or do! That's in the nature of our individualities, I think. But I find that though it was the sweetest time of my life when they were younger, this is the most rewarding time in that I can learn from them, too (well, most of the time!).
ReplyDeleteTameshk Jan:

Thank you Farnice Jan! Yes, I'm really glad he's back. When you return from your trip, you will also see the same changes in your "Dadashak" that I see in my Traveler! It is an age where their minds and their physique grow and change everyday, looking different from yesterday. The good news is that their hearts stay the same! Be good azizam.
