Iran cannot be controlled with batons and prisons it cannot be silenced with lies and fear the more this land was wounded the deeper its rage grew the more pressure they applied the stronger the roots pushed downward freedom does not beg it strikes it rises from people who have nothing left to lose history has proven that no power survives by repression and no nation is saved by silence Iran is standing even when it bled even when voices were cut even when the night was stretched long this story does not end with fear it ends with resistance and its ending has only one word freedom

I was left behind. I wished to be a bird and fly… Now I am a tree, with my deepest roots sunk into this soil. Good night, friends🌙

The clock lies; time does not revolve in a circle, it runs along a straight line and never, ever returns. The idea of making a clock in the shape of a circle was a deceitful, trickster’s magic. The true clock is the hourglass; each moment shows you that a grain that has fallen will never come back. Time gone is gone, neither regret nor insistence can alter it. This endless line remains unaffected. And perhaps the very deceptions that bring us joy are sometimes more valuable than a hundred truths.

I want to plant these walnuts in the ground. To be honest, I’ve done it once before, and it worked, now I have a small walnut tree. The chances of success may be low, but hope is still alive in my heart, the same hope that makes every little seed want to grow. I wish humans were like seeds, every time they fall, they would take root instead of losing hope. Within every dark soil lies a hidden light that only the eyes of patience and faith can see. Maybe these walnuts will never sprout, but the very act of planting them is a way of believing in the repetition of life’s miracle.

There were two babies in a mother's womb. One turned to the other and said: "Do you believe in life after birth?" The other replied: "Yes, of course. There must be something afterwards. Maybe we are here to prepare for what is to come later." The first one said: "Nonsense. There is no life after birth." The second one said: "I don't know! But there is probably more life there. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat with our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we don't understand now." The first one said: "That's ridiculous! Walking is impossible, and eating with the mouth is foolish. The umbilical cord brings us food and all the things we need. And it is very short, so life after birth is scientifically impossible." The second one said: "What if it's different from here? Maybe we won't need that physical cord." 🤔 The first one said: "Fine. If there really is life after birth, then tell me, why has no one ever returned from there? Birth is the end of life, and after that, there is nothing but darkness, silence, non-existence, and it leads to nothing." The second one said: "But surely we will see Mother there. She will take care of us." The first one said: "Mother? Do you really believe in a Mother? If she truly exists, then where is she right now?" The second one said: "She is all around us. We are from her, and we live in her. Without her, this world would not exist at all." The first one said: "I can't see her, so logically, she doesn't exist." The second one replied: "Sometimes, when you are quiet and truly listen, you can feel her presence. You can hear her kind voice from above." "Sometimes when we are truly silent and just listen, we can feel her presence everywhere."

In the world we live in, good and evil have always stood face to face, not just in the streets and borders, but within the human heart. We witness it every day: people who, in the name of power, and governments that, in the name of order, and wars that, in the name of peace, drag the innocent into darkness. This conflict is not even limited to the Earth; angels and demons are also witnesses to the same battle. But the truth is: the boundary between good and evil is neither in the sky nor in governments; this boundary runs through the human heart, and sometimes a single spark is enough to realize which side we stand on.
