بنفشه ها


در روزهای آخر اسفند
در نیم روز روشن
وقتی بنفشه ها را
با برگ و ریشه و پیوند و خاک
در جعبه های کوچک چوبین
جای می دهند
(x2)

جوی هزار
زمرمه درد و انتظار
در سینه می خروشد و بر گونه ها روان
(x2)

ای کاش آدمی وطنش را همچون بنفشه ها می شد با خود ببرد هر کجا که خواست
(x2)

در روشنایی باران
در آفتاب پاکان
در روزهای آخر اسفند
در نیم روز روشن
وقتی بنفشه ها را
با برگ و ریشه و پیوند و خاک
در جعبه های کوچک چوبین
جای می دهند

جوی هزار
زمرمه درد و انتظار
در سینه می خروشد و بر گونه ها روان
(x2)

ای کاش آدمی وطنش را همچون بنفشه ها می شد با خود ببرد هر کجا که خواست
(x6)

The Sea Inside


Relax
You're more and more relaxed
Now, imagine a screen
A movie screen that unfolds and opens in front of you.
Project on it your favorite place.
Concentrate on your breathing
Helping your entire body to
relax, to feel at peace.
You don't need to change it.
Just let it come and go.
Come ... and go.
Now ... you are there.
Focus on the details.
The colors, the texture, the light, the temperature
Feel the temperature
Allow this scene to play in front of you.
The feeling of peace is infinite.


-From the beginning of the movie: "The Sea Inside".

Afghan hat. Jome Bazaar, Tehran, Iran.

Correction: As pointed out in the comments section, this is actually a Torkaman hat, not an Afghan hat!

Hidden tree



I find this shot very interesting. If you look closely, you can see a tree hidden between the pink flowers. Here's an explanation: The pink flowers are my laptop's background. I'm sitting with my laptop on my lap, and there's a large window behind me. The tree is actually the reflection of the outside scenery on my laptop screen. :D

Refection at the gulf
