This blog is about fairness; about looking at objects from multiple perspectives. Stable transformation comes only slowly; and only if the environment is free of sporadic jitters of passion and anger that destabilize growth. I strongly believe that the path to peace crosses through the battle with self.
Happy Birthday Naj! :) For your birthday, I send you a finely tailored virtual Frankenstein costume to compliment your cloak, when you feel the need for an alternate monster disguise. Click here to view your new wardrobe accessories. ;)
I am having a great day; showered by love and affection from my family and friends (even Amre-Albino! Who dropped by to send me some birthday insults :)))
David, I can't use that outfit. The coat is too short; will get me in trouble with the moral police ;)
Zeinobia, funnily, happy birthday in Iran is said almost entirely in arabic: it will be: "tavalodet mobarak"
Brother Tim; I always thought I would die this year; but my next due date is age 75 ... still many years away ;)
Anna; Yes I love Klimt. I chose this one because I thought that's what I want for a birthday present :)
RickB; No you are right on time :) I posted on Iran-time zone.
Happy Birthday!!! I have finally begun to settle in our new home and stopped by you place just in time to wish you blessings on your ever-forward journey. You are a gift. Here's your lantern.
The Persian art you've been posting is incredible. I've always held Japanese art and design in the highest esteem, but your displays of Persian art (and poetry) have opened a new window for me.
i see a poll... your blog might not be the right place for it, is it? The poll might not tell you what you wanna know (even if you are a believer in statistics)...
If you come to see me
And a porthole for observing the crowded happines of that lucky alley.

hey,
ReplyDelete"if you come to see me
bring a lantern"... what does that mean?
[I recently seem to be drawn like a moth to lanterns]
Hi Iris, good to see you and thanks for BD wishes.
ReplyDelete"if you come to see me, bring a lantern" is a line from a poem by Forough Farokhzad.
(Pen Name translated the second line of it: "And a porthole for observing the crowded happines of that lucky alley")
poets! :)
ReplyDeletegood to see you too N.
