Interview with Bahar (Radio Farda)

Listen here
I think what you are doing is great Bahar!Good luck!

Bahar's interview brought back some uncomfortable thoughts I was trying to avoid for a long time:

Am I really a citizen of this country? I’m using its resources, paying taxes and obeying its laws. Yet, I refuse to put any energy or thought into improving my environment. And even the smallest notion of that kind makes me feel that I am being unloyal to my home country. I wonder if I’m denying my own existence this way. Maybe that’s the curse of immigrants…

It is the "cursed generation".

People who were born in the midst of a revolution, grew up in a bloody war and grew old in immigration.

We all should be hospitalized in a mental institution!

Remindes of me Hillary's book: Living History!

I think I have somethings to write to her about "living history"!!!
