Pollution, pollution, pollution.This is a familiar word for people who are living in Tehran, it's heard everhwhere and nearly is the reason of most of their illnesses, making their dying day become faster and there is no hope for the future.
Last wednesday & Thursday was holidays and also schools were off for about 5 days to prevent making worse situations, also from today just odd-even cars are allowed to be used in odd-even days but all of these are just temporary solutions.Yes,ofcourse we cann't make wind or order to the clouds to rain but atleast we can stop using our old cars and ride by public transport system( even if it's as not-enough as Tehran) in polluted days.
:D Today I'm like old women who keeps on nagging with lots of old suggestions. But belive me, we should do some hard works if we want to live in a non-standard city.No one can help us except ourselves.

Plane crash
I'm sure everybody has heard about C-130 plane crash in Tehran, near the international Mehrabad airport. In this sad accident 110 people were died and about 80 were injured. I don't want to mention the details but intend to look at the crash from a different side.
Exactly after the accident, when everybody was in great sorrows about those educated reporters who were died, the government representative appeared on TV screen and announced that all of 94 passengers of the plane , according to the Islamic rules, are martyrs(!!!!!!!) and insurance companies will pay about 30000$ to their families but he didn't talk about those poor families who were resting in their homes at 13:45 and suddenly a plane crashed into their apartment, some of them dead, all of their lives ruined, most of them became nervous out of the accident sound and at the end nobody responsible for compensating the damage.
Maybe I'm wrong but as far as I know nearly most of the Iranian houses are not insured against sudden accidents so no one will pay them. They should come over losing their dears and also making new lives.
Thank God we are living in an Islamic country with justified rules, otherwise who knows what more could happen for them?!!

Lunch at work
In our work place we should bring lunch from home or buy it from a nearby restaurant.Generally speaking women cook lunch fro their next day and men, because they are very lazy, don't bring their wife's delicious food and just eat whatever is available for that day.
Yesterday ,I cooked Ghormesabzi, an Iraninan traditional food, and put it in the refregarator for noon.At lunch time when I opened my dish I become very angry.Some one had stolen some of it's meat!!! I shouted at the young servant who had prepared the lunch.I was sure that it's his fault but he persist on saying that he isn't guilty.
In the afternoon, when I was describing it for my mom, her reaction made me shocked. She said you shouldn't yell at him and you MUST give him your lunch, because he is poor and single and his family isn't there, so maybe when he opened your dish he couldn't stop himself from tasting it.
I hadn't thought of the fight from this side.Before it I was an engineer and he was only a servant but after it I was ashamed.My work was wronge but he was guilty too.
What do you think?If you were in my shoes and see your food isn't intact any more, what did you do?Isn't all the subject very funny?

Friendship
Friendship is like standing on wet cement...the longer you stay,the harder is to leave & you can never go without leaving your footprints behind.
Dear Fattaneh,please just don't bother yourself because of other people's way of thinking about you.be sure that you are the best and if anybody doesn't understand this it's her problem,let them be ashamed of their behaviours and regret their old days with you.Wish you the best.

Chapar
200 years ago when people want to send mail or message to a relative in another city ,they paid a man and asked him to travel there and give the mssage to the reciever.The man was called Chapar and this process at least needed 2 weeks and by this much delay everythings were done.
After those years humanity beings become civilized and invent some tools to reduce the delay.We are using the results such as internet,fax,e-banking,e-governing ,etc.This is all the people of the world's right to use these innovations and make their lives easier.
But unfortunately in Iran out of political results, we are banned of using lots of these improvements.Iran is in great sanctions and powerty-stricken people should pay for it.
Imagin a situation that a person needs to send money for his son who is educating abroad. First he should change his money to some foreign exchange. Up to this step ,it's natural but because Iranian banks don't have any foreign branches or known foreign banks don't have any branch in Iran,he couldn't send his money by any legal tool.He should go to the airport and ask a passenger to give the money to the son who is waiting on that country's airport.
See,it's another meaning of using Chapars but with lots of risks.Because at the destination if the passenger doesn't give the money ,nobody can improve that he's lying.
This is a tiny example of the problems that Iranian people are facing everyday.I'm in deep love of Iran,so I write the problems to show my concerns,but when i see there is no other way(at least not for next 20 years) I wish I was born somewhere else.Don't blame me,it's a fact that because of some radiculous thoughts among our governers ,despite our rich history , we are very poor people.
