The Young Generation & The Brilliant Future (waiting for them)!



(Although we waste so many precious moments without doing anything special, but it's still been really hard to find some free time to write: this valuable career…)
In case of me, it's mostly painful not to write!!! So here I am again! :-D

By the way, I've discovered something interesting!!! Today is the 10th Moharram (& Bahman), This is my 20th Post, and it's 30th January!! 10 – 20 – 30 ….!! just for having fun! ;)

Well! Regarding the matter of "writing", I found a great statement that you can follow behind:

………………………

"To ask why we write is also to ask why we read. The pragmatic answer is "to find proof" -- to find proof of like-minded thinkers, to find support for our own arguments, to discover that we are not alone in our thinking, our assumptions and problems. The transcendental answer is "to educate" -- to inspire our own thinking, to see new realities, to uplift ourselves through another writer's use of language. And the middle road: "Because there is a need."

Writing is [or can be] a transgression of boundaries, an exploration of new territory. It involves making public the events of our lives, wriggling free of the constraints of purely private and individual experiences. From a state of modest insignificance we enter a space in which we can take ourselves seriously. As an alternative to accepting everyday events mindlessly, we recall them in writing."

I write to be human

Anyway, let me come to the events of these days, specially: "Ashoora".

I don't wanna talk about its religious aspects or historical ones! What has made me write this note is that, almost no one has reverence for the religious celebrations (either the memorials or the feasts) anymore

It's not just the matter of being Muslim or religious, but just being scrupulous is enough to react towards the strange behavior of this conscienceless mankind!!!!

Here is my personal experience:

It's really hard to believe that those who had come to that Theological Ceremony (Ashoora) were most likely to take part in a wedding party!! Specially the young ones whose eyes were wondering around to find …. To find really what??!! To find a foolish, unprincipled, dishonorable companion like themselves, with strange hair style and expensive shoes, bags, jeans, or clothing!! .. There was a fashion show in progress!! The girls in one side, the boys in the other side of the street! Some in their own cars, some on foot! I just felt so sad and mostly worried about what lies ahead for us … I just wondered at such mentality!

How we expect that everything be in order, while we have been mentally in disorder??!

I just hope that the young generation (of which I am a member), who is the builder of future, would make a positive change! If not, we would become the prisoners of the "material world"! Then what we "own" would be the scale to value what we "Are"!!! "To Have" or "Not To Have" That's the Question!!! "Religious" or "Non-believing" (not being religious = brilliant thought, open-minded!!!!!)

My God! …. It's a shame! …. That's really awful … Help us going through this world of complexities …
