IT IS ALL ABOUT THE ATTITUDE,
Don't give up till it's done,
Keep the spirit high,
Think like a winner,

Unlike what some people think, winning isn't everything, in fact, we never lose,,,, WE EITHER WIN OR LEARN, what's important is the effort that we put in, if we ever fail, we keep the spirit high and try again & again till it's done, that's thinking like a winner,,,

Life is A Dream,, All A Dream,,
N. Cheshmazar
In loving memory of all the good people who didn't leave much room for words;

I’d embrace cultures blowing through my home like a gentle breeze,,

For they might caress my soul and put my mind at ease,

But not when they rip through uninvitedly,, like a hurricane,

Bringing me nothing but agony and pain,,,,

"DON'T BE SO PICKY"
A common situation,
(PART ONE)

A few days ago, Sarah asked me to go out shopping with her for a pair of shoes that she needed TO WAER TO A PARTY,,,, WE SPENT THE WHOLE EVENING walking in & out of at least 20 stores, TRYING ON almost 100 different pairs of shoes, but at the end of the day, WE ENDED UP COMING BACK HOME EMPTY HANDED.

SOMETIMES, SHE DRIVES ME NUTS BY BEING TOO PICKY..

"A FINICKY EATER"
A common case,
(PART TWO)

When Sarah was a kid, she would eat not just anything,, she was really FINICKY about what she ate,,, still is, If there was a piece of LAMB MEAT on her plate, It would easily PUT HER OFF the meal, …. She would always say & still does that Lam Meat is so SMELLY….. Well, we can't blame her for having A STRONG SENSE OF SMELL;  We tried using all sorts of SEASONINGS AND SPICES TO KILL THE (RAW) SMELL…. But it just didn't seem to work…..

"TO GO TOO FAR WITH"
'TRYING TO BE METICULOUS'
(PART THREE)

IT IS PERFECTLY FINE TO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS, Sometimes it means that you care about things getting done right and being right, it could also mean that you expect people to do their jobs properly and to behave correctly, Well,, You may be different & UNIQUE in a lot of ways,, but ,,, you are likely to be regarded as a FUSSY/PICKY/FINICKY OR CHOOSY PERSON, So you need to be careful not TO GO TOO FAR WITH THINGS,,, and if you find yourself;

- DOING THE SAME THING OVER & OVER AGAIN,

- PAYING (EXCESSIVE/TOO MUCH) ATTENTION TO DETAILS,

Then, you might be developing a mental (illness/disorder) called; "OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOR"

Now, It would still be perfectly fine to pay close attention to the problem and seek professional help.

"DON'T MAKE A BIG FUSS OVER IT"
REMINISCING……
A common experience,
(PART FOUR)

Back in the old days, when I used to get home from school, , I was, most of the time, SO hungry THAT I would go (right/ straight)  to the kitchen just to see what Mom had made for lunch, for some reason, I always expected her to prepare my favorite food, and if she didn't,,, I would MAKE SUCH A BIG FUSS OVER IT,,,, But now, when I look back, I think If I had the chance to RELIVE those days again, I WOULD PREFER TO HAVE JUST A PLAIN CHEESE SANDWICH that my Mom used to make for lunch RATHER THAN TO EAT the most delicious food, prepared by the best chef in the whole entire world,,,,,

OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARILY WHAT YOU EAT, IT IS WHO MAKES IT.....

IT TAKES A LOT MORE RAIN,,
To get us out of the drought,,,

Tehran was blessed with rain last week,,,, and I really hope we'll have more of these rainy days, so we won't have to struggle with water shortage during the summer,, but I think it'll take a lot more than just a few rainfalls to get us out of the drought.
