  • Sisters are forever!

    A young wife sat on a sofa on a hot humid day, drinking iced tea and
    visiting with her Mother.

    As they talked about life, about marriage, about the responsibilities of
    life and the obligations of adulthood, the mother clinked the ice cubes in
    her glass thoughtfully and turned a clear, sober glance upon her daughter.


    "Don't forget your Sisters," she advised, swirling the tea leaves to the
    bottom of her glass.

    "They'll be more important as you get older. No matter how much you love
    your husband, no matter how much you love the children you may
    have, you are still going to need Sisters. Remember to go places with them
    now and then; do things with them. "Remember that 'Sisters' means ALL the
    women... your girlfriends, your daughters, and all your other women
    relatives too. "You'll need other women. Women always do."

    What a funny piece of advice!' the young woman thought. Haven't I just
    gotten married? Haven't I just joined the couple-world? I'm now a
    married woman, for goodness sake! A grownup! Surely my husband and the
    family we may start will be all I need to make my life worthwhile!'

    But she listened to her Mother.
    She kept contact with her Sisters and made more women friends each year.
    As the years tumbled by, one after another, she gradually came to
    understand that her Mom really knew what she was talking about.
    As time and nature work their changes and their mysteries upon a woman,
    Sisters are the mainstays of her life.
    After more than 50 years of living in this world, here is what I've
    learned:

    THIS SAYS IT ALL:
    Time passes.
    Life happens.
    Distance separates.
    Children grow up.
    Jobs come and go.
    Love waxes and wanes.
    Men don't always do what they're supposed to do.
    Hearts break.
    Parents die.
    Colleagues forget favors.
    Careers end.
    BUT.........
    Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between
    you. A girl friend is never farther away than needing her can reach. When
    you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself,
    the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on,
    praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting
    with open arms at the valley's end.

    Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you...Or come in
    and carry you out. Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters,
    daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, Mothers, Grandmothers, aunties,
    nieces, cousins, and extended family, all bless our life!

    The world wouldn't be the same without women, and neither would I.
    When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the
    incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we
    would need each other.

    Every day, we need each other still.

    Pass this on to all the women who help make your life meaningful. I just
    did.

    Short and very sweet:
    There are more than twenty angels in this world. Ten are peacefully
    sleeping on clouds. Nine are playing. And one is reading her email at this
    moment.

    Send this message to ten of your friends including me. If you get 5
    replies, someone you love will surprise you.
    از برای ملتم ای زرتشت
    لبخند و ترانه و رهایی بیاور
    می خواهم باز شب میهنم را
    در آن سپیده دمان دانا ، نظاره کنم...




    چگونه با دشمنت به دوستی تا کنم؟
    تو رخت زندان تن ات و من تماشا کنم؟
    تو رخت زندان تن ات و من بمانم خموش؟
    قسم به زن، نازنم اگر محابا کنم
    اگرچه تلخ است حق، نمی توانم نهفت
    زبان از آن بایدم که آشکارا کنم
Working...
