I should force myself to move on. I am not satisfied with myself at all. It is ridiculous but either I have really left myself back in Iran or the whole situation all together is trying to put me in some kind of non-productivity.
The say this is the land of opportunities, the land of Democracy, and so or so…..
I have argues on the subject though if these are all true statements; I have some to add to them: Here is the land where they waste Democracy in its worst and most careless way. I can’t say anything about Americans yet, but from what I have seen so far among the Iranian community here I am sorry to say that the results are really disappointing.
Who ever you come across is complaining about the dictatorship and the hard living conditions and lack of this and that in Iran. They all claim they are here, escaping from all the barriers and pressures that made their life miserable and stopped them from improving, doing anything back there in Iran.
I am not in a Judgment position by no means but I think as a human being and as an observer I have one right to ask, to question them for what I see and feel.
What have they really done all through these years living in the land of dreams? What have they achieved? Where are they? Did they get the best out of their life? Did they become the best person they could be? What were the benefits they could grab in this land of opportunities? What were the opportunities they lost? What was the joy of living in Democracy?
Unfortunately many of them have even forgotten all about their inherited properties and values. They claim that they want to get back to their country; they say that they miss their homeland, they say they are worried and caring for the people inside.That’s really valuable. But do
Of course I should assert that I am not disvaluing, or underestimating the precious effort and improvement many Iranian immigrants have made here. Actually that is my whole point. Those who are looking for something in their lives will get it. No matter how hard, no matter where they are, no matter what they have or don’t have.
