By Parvin E'tesami "The deer of time is not a deer, but a dragon's might, The water of greed and lust, not water, but fiery light. The raven of the sky, many a pure gem of soul, Buried beneath the dust, unknowing of its goal." To read the rest: #poem www.reddit.com/r/FarshadTor...

From Khayyam "Oh, you who came from the realm of spirit's heat, Lost and perplexed in five, and four, and six, and seven's beat. Drink wine, for you know not whence you came, nor why; Be joyful, for you know not whither you will fly." #poem

Khayyam "Today is yours, tomorrow's not in sight, And thoughts of future bring but vain delight. Waste not this moment, though your heart's not bright, For life's remaining worth finds no such light."

From Khayyam "Now that your fortune's rose is full and grand, Why does your hand from wine's cup idly stand? Drink, for the world's a foe, a treacherous hand, Such a day to grasp, is hard to command."

From Khayyam "The clouds have gathered, and weep on the green, Without rosy wine, life has no joyful sheen. This verdant grass, where our gaze now is cast, Will it be the green of our grave, for whom will it last?"

By Khayyam "That Palace where great Jamshid once drank deep of wine, Now fawns give birth, and foxes softly recline. And Bahram, who throughout his life caught the wild ass, Saw how the grave at last held Bahram in its confine."

"If you drink no wine, don't mock the ones who sway, And do not build a base for trickery and play. Don't be so proud you turn from grape's delight, You've had a hundred bites that wine serves in its sway." From Khayyam

There are lots of Hard working people out there; There are lots of smart and genius people out there; There are some people who live a full life; But so many people don't have that, including me. Everyday, everyone deals with a random chances from birth to death. Right or not, that is life.

A validation. a nod from a stranger. Acceptance from a room full of strangers. Before long, we live for those strangers. Like disease that hollow us out from inside, we give our youth, our energy, and time just for that. But is it worth pursuing? Why not pursue something better? Like reputation?

" A day it dawned, a world-illuminating day, When every eye found brightness in its ray. Its morn from paradise itself had bloomed, Its breeze with breath of Christ the air perfumed. That fortune, mending every broken plight, Arose and stood upon the hand of right." Nezami

He who rests, bears no pain's sting, Knows not the suffering sorrow brings. He who is sated, sets a feast, Breaks but a crumb for hunger's beast. He truly knows the hot fire's might, Who plunges in his hand, without fear's blight.

Saqi, where art thou? I am one who prays, To hand me the wine cup in these trying days. That wine, which like my tear, is pure and clear, In the faith of lovers, is held so dear.

"In His Name, the best of all starts, Without Your Name, how open these parts? Your memory, the soul's dear friend, No name but Yours my tongue can send. Opener of all that exists, Your Name, the key where naught resists" Nezami Ganjavi.

X is getting worse. They, now, supress those that don't have checkmarks. I thought the checkmark was for boosting or "validation," however, it became something more sinister.

It takes years of knowledge and experience for a person to accept that one person cannot know everything, and it is alright to say, "I don't know. " And it takes a stalwart mind to seek the truth rather than accept an easy answer.

This is pessimistic view, but the truth is an honest man or woman can not grow in corrupted environment.(be in possession of Power) Because that's how they undone the system set by corrupted ones. This is true in politics, religions, or any other societies's structure.
