What did you learn from the experience so far, share in the comment?
Dear friends don’t forget to read my books.
The field was singing the coldest wind through our souls. Many kids were burning with fever. Some of us fell and slept in the middle of that area forever. We were holding our coughs, trying not to make any noise while passing through this open meadow when one of the older adults couldn’t take it and started to cough. Breathing heavy, he fell to the ground. All of us started running. In a second, artillery shells destroyed our unity and exploded between us, then machine gun shootings began. They didn’t see us clearly in the dark, so they just sent a rain of bullets on us. We were tired enough to give up and just die and rest in peace. This earth doesn’t seem to have any consensus on it, so why not die and finally be at peace? But I had to run for Lena, Lars, and so many more kids.

I recognize myself in this sentence :
“Most of the things I was worried about in my life never happened”

Thanks so much dear Ioujen for sharing beautiful words.🌷
” Never walk on ice when your hands are in your pocket. (12 years old)”…potrei trasforarlo in un grande insegnamento, quasi una metafora.
Lol, simply great advice.😂 thanks dear.🌷
Thanks for sharing
Appreciate your kindness dear.🌷

As a transgender woman over 70 years of age, I wish I would have followed my true gender path years ago rather than try to live a lie as a man.
Thanks for the thoughtful post!

locally tis the mormons. a cult who try to convince all they re christian. they re not.
🥺🥺🥺
exactly. one bad priest told us get over it. i don t hink so laleh , are you ready to get over the clerics?
Gladly I don’t follow religion, just God. I’m sure God has nothing to do with none of the religions on earth.😂
hard to say. but i know he did not care for the pharisees.
Loved this post… Also enjoyed The Endless Sunset… I have learned I should read Laleh Chini’s writing.
Awww you’re amazing.🙏
Very interesting answers.
Thank you dear.🙏
You’re welcome
😍
What have I learned? That all of the above have their own place and time! That human wisdom varies but the best wisdom always comes from God!
Thanks for sharing.🙏
Aye-Yah-!
These are wise and beautiful. I loved the children’s views the best.
Thank you dear.🙏
‘I’ve learned from this blog to wise up does not depend on one’s age. One can respect such foresight without needing to be older than the older and maybe not so wise.
Means a lot.🙏
💕wisdom comes as we seek to be open.. great story, Laleh💓
Thanks a million Cindy.❤️❤️❤️
As I read through these reflections, I find that I am very much like so many others. Never feel afraid of what tomorrow will teach you.
That’s a great attitude.👏👏👏
