Spin
Everything is Spinning. So strange! in a short period of time I am not in my previous position. I am really confused. I want to change my position and in the same time I dont want to do it.
I am yelling to the sky With all my heart:
Is there any stable place that i could hold it?

Orion ... My lover
Tonight,
When I came out,
I saw him in the sky…
I am talking about Orion, my constellation or it is better to say my lover. He never leaves me. It is not important where I live, in Iran or Canada, he is just there looking at me and …
He wants me to fly,
High in the sky,
To touch him
To feel him
And to join him.
He gives me the feeling of being at home.
You know the story but I want to tell it once again.
In ancient Greek, Artemis, the goddess of the moon loved Orion (the hunter). His brother, Apollo, was jealous of him and decided to end this relationship. One day Orion was swimming in the lake and Apollo deceived Artemis by daring her to strike the spot which was Orion head in the waves. She did it and then realized, she had killed her lover. After this catastrophe, she decides to send his soul to the sky to become eternal.
You know this constellation is formed 1.5 million years ago, and it will remain there 1 to 2 million years.
You want to see him?

The Forest .... The Truth
The forest...
When I think about life usually I remember this strange story.
A man wants to see the forest. He was told it is a nice place and he could find many glories in it. So excited about this magnificent place he decides firmly to find and visit it. He goes through a path that will end to a forest and he imagines what it can be. Finally he reaches a place which is full of trees and still he is searching for the forest. ............... "These trees wont let me see the jungle!"
This is our story.The trees don’t let us to see the jungle, or better to say the truth.
Just imagine.It is near... C'est trop proche...
