Snoring

Snoring is a dangerous habit. Sleepy people may do anything to shut you up.

Today

Oh, I know who you are ... You are representing the idiocy of today.

-from the movie:
Burn after reading

صوفی و کنج خلوت، سعدی و طرف صحرا
صـاحب هنر نگیرد بر بــی هنر بهــانه

Perception

"Everything is perception" said the guy at the Starbucks.
And I thought if Einstein had said it, it would have been a good quote.

Right now, right here

There is definitely something wrong, I just can't figure it out.
Maybe next week ... next month. I still have some time left.

Joker ...

They are as good as the world around them allows them to be.

Color

Color is drunk ...
Color is not always a socially responsible citizen.

Taboo

And he had to hide it because one man's choice is the other one's taboo.

And I Can't Sleep ...

... But inside the ashes burns an endless fire
And every night I can't help reaching out for more

And I can't sleep ... And I can't sleep

4:30AM, I am awake again
Singing to the dark through open eyes ...

Deep enough ...

It is deep enough to realize you are shallow.

-Niles Crane!

Like it is possible!

Never explain yourself to anyone.
Those who like you never need it,
Those who dislike you won't believe it.

I picked up this text from a poster,

Well I like it but for some unknown reason

I think there is something wrong about it!

Mother's day

ای مادر عزیز من ای غمگسار من

ای اختر سعادت من ای بهار من

آری تو دیده بسته و آرام خفته ای

آسوده ای ز محنت و شور و شرار من

فریاد من به گوش تو هرگز نمی رسد

خوش فارغی ز درد دل بیقرار من

جان تو شاد و روح تو مرغ بهشت باد

همواره باد حافظ تو کردگار من

ژاله اصفهانی -

Things you don't know ...

گر به تو افتدم نظر چهره به چهره رو به رو

شرح دهم غم تو را نکته به نکته مو به مو

We ...

We make them cry who care for us.

We cry for those who never care for us.

And we care for those who will never cry for us.

Advice

نگران نباش، نگران نباش ... همه چیز درست می شه. البته منم چرت وپرت زیاد می گم

بیرون نمی توان کرد الا به روزگاران

Oscar

A while ago I read somewhere that many people believe the moment Charlie Chaplin received his honorary Oscar is the best (or at least one of the best) Oscar moments ever. It is said that this is the longest standing ovation in the history of Oscars. I searched for it in YouTube and couldn't find it at the time but guess what, it was added a few days ago ...

Zazen ...

The moment is where our life takes place.
If we miss the moment we miss our life.
