Kind of living together

Since about 5 years ago I live far from my hometown, Isfahan. I don't really miss my hometown but being separated from parents is somehow tough for me.

In fact I'm worry about my parents more than about myself. I'm almost sure that parents are dependent on their children more than the way that children are dependent on their parents.

I purchased an internet account for my parents, a couple of month ago, when I was there on a vacation. I taught my mother to use Gmail chat and she became able to chat me lots of time a day.

You know, I'm almost online when I am at work or I'm in home, so is my mother in home. She turns her computer on when she wakes up in the morning and while she is doing her houseworks, she talks to me and we chatting in our little free times.

Sometimes she talks to me about what she is cooking or the book she is studying and I tell her about my job or my friends or some new project that I'm on it these days. My father sometimes joins us too. We feel live together this way.

When we are sorry...

When we say "I'm sorry", it doesn't mean that we are worthy to be forgiven. It just means that we are regretful and we know that we did a mistake. To say "I'm sorry" does not change anything.

Rain Café

I and my friends go to a café on Wednesdays every week, from around 2 years ago. All of these friends are emigrant here in Qum because all of them are college student or clergyman; except two of them who came here many years ago when they were kids. In fact, their fathers were emigrant too.

Most of us have no relatives here. There for, we need each other so much. This weekly meeting is right for this. When we sat this meeting up, we promised each other to keep it continue, even if we don't work together any more.

We are partners in work, and some of us study in same college but after these years we matched together and we made a strong group. This friendship has a new meaning, more than a roommate or coworker or something like this.

When I imagine the first day I came to Qum and I was so feeling alone, I see how I owe my friends for feeling alive and being happy today. Thank God!
