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 Business of Life
Isn't she just beautiful? Isn't that smile worth a million dollars? Doesn't it just bring hope to you when you see someone who works hard and is also enjoying herself? She was my reminder of hope and joy of life today. Sometimes all we have to do is to look. I looked for joy and hope today and I found this woman across the oceans and continents and through the internet lines, whispering, telling, and shouting that hope to me. Does she know she touched my heart today? Does she know her smile moved me and shook me and embraced me today, willing me to work harder and to enjoy my life more and with more hope? She doesn't know, but she does know what she's doing, I believe, enjoying it to the fullest. This woman is in the business of life, and I want to be just like her when I grow up.

اگر اشتباه نکنم روبر مرل کتابی دارد با عنوان :مرگ کسب و کار من است.این در عوض آن.اما آنچه این زن می کارد بذر لبخند است با سرمایه امید. من چه سبزم امروز
سبز باشی همیشه

ReplyDeleteBeautiful smile! If she can do all the hard work she probably does on a daily basis and still smile this bright, we have no business ever frowning!
ReplyDeleteمشغله ی راستین زندگی بخشش است و بخشیدن. من این نوشته و این تصویر را خیلی دوست دارم و فراموش نمی کنم روزی را که برای نخستین بار آن را دیدم. خداوند بر نگارنده اش ببخشاید. آمین.ء
ReplyDeleteMy Dear and Thoughtful Alef Shin:
ReplyDeleteI am so glad I was online when you wrote your kind comment, so that I could see it right away!
Thank you for reminding me of a beautiful day of my life on a day when I didn't feel the happiest! Heeh, your reminder made me read that post again and it cheered me up! Isn't that strange?
"Sometimes all you have to do is to look for hope and you will find it!" Thank you kind Alef Shin, and thank you for the prayer.
