When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
COULD IT BE WORSE?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.

"All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood. ..

Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status ...."

These are the first articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

If everyone knew the UDHR....

If everyone was free from fear...

If everyone..... if "I!".... why not me?  I love so much my freedom , all I want is freedom, is that too much to ask for???

In harmony with the Nature, the Iranian New Year Celebration or NOROZ!(a Persian word that means "New Day.") always begins on the First day of Spring! Noroz ceremonies are symbolic representations of (Persian)Zoroastrian ancient concept. When we are in the last days of the year, people start to prepare themselves to welcome the New Year, but how..We start spring-cleaning, wash the carpets, clean the windows, and plant some new flowers like Sonbol, Shamdanie... We buy new clothes and gifts especially for children. But we try to make every thing new! It has its own philosophy. The first day of spring means the new birth of earth, Nature. By trying to make everything new we want to show our happiness, thanksgiving of this wonderful God’s gift, Spring! A ceremonial table called Sofreh-e Haft Sin (cloth of seven dishes), All Seven{or more} items in this ceremonial table starts with the Persian letter “ Seen ” or “ S ” in the English.
  1. Sabzeh - wheat, barley or lentil sprouts growing in a dish - symbolizing rebirth
  2. Samanu - a sweet pudding made from wheat germ - symbolizing the ultimate sophistication of Persian cooking.
  3. Senjed - the dried fruit of the oleaster tree - symbolizing love
  4. Sir - garlic - symbolizing medicine
  5. Sib - apples - symbolizing beauty and health
  6. Somaq - sumac berries - symbolizing (the color of) sunrise
  7. Serkeh - vinegar - symbolizing age and patience
Other items on the table may include: 
  • a few coins represent prosperity and wealth
  • a basket of painted eggs represents fertility
  • a bowl with goldfish (life, and the sign of  Pisces which the sun is leaving)
  • a bowl of water with an orange in it (the earth floating in space)
  • A mirror which represents the images and reflections of Creation as we celebrate anew the ancient Persian traditions and beliefs that creation took place on the first day of spring.
  • a holy book (e.g., the Qur’an, Avesta, Kitáb-i-Aqdas, Bible, or Torah) and/or a poetry book (almost always either the Shahnama or the Divan of Hafez)
  • On either side of the mirror are two candlesticks holding a flickering candle for each child in the family. The candles represent enlightenment and happiness.
  • rosewater for its magical cleansing powers
The herald – Amo Noroz(Uncle New Year)The traditional messenger of Noroz is called Amo Noroz! He brings good news for the people. He sings and dances through the streets wearing dark make-up and red clothes. 

After that it is Noroz during this time people visit each other to say happy New Year and receive their gifts(Edie) by these visiting they destroy the root of hatred and plant the seed of kindness and peace!
