A Love Like That..

Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth "You owe me"
Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky.
-Hafiz

Dare, Change..

“In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.”
-Michael Jackson

You Got The Wings..

"You Got The Wings".. In this design I used a lot of Persian calligraphy.. They are all some very old Persian(Iranian) poems.. In any of them you can find whether the word "Angel" or "Wings" :)..

My Ex-Blog-Header..

From now on this is called my "Ex-Blog-Header".. I'll miss you :P..

Forgiveness..

"When deep injurey is done to us,
we never recover until we forgive..
Forgiveness does not change the past..
But it does enlarge the future.."

The Strenght To Get Up.. An Inspiring Speech By Nick Vujicic..

If you fail, are YOU going to try again?

The human spirit can handle much more than we realize.

It matters HOW you are going to FINISH.

Are YOU going to finish STRONG?

Friends Are Very Rare Jewels, Indeed..

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His Father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the back of the fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks, as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence. Finally the day came when the boy didn’t lose his temper at all.
He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.. He said, ‘You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. But It won’t matter how many times you say I’m sorry, the wound will still be there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
Remember that friends are very rare jewels, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share words of praise and they always want to open their hearts to us.’

Everyday..

Imagine what would happen
if each one of us displayed
this kind of passion
Everyday..

The Most Universal Human Characteristic..

“There are two kinds of sufferers in this world: those who suffer from a lack of life and those who suffer from an overabundance of life. I’ve always found myself in the second category. When you come to think of it, almost all human behavior and activity is not essentially any different from animal behavior. The most advanced technologies and craftsmanship bring us, at best, up to the super-chimpanzee level. Actually, the gap between, say, Plato or Nietzsche and the average human is greater than the gap between that chimpanzee and the average human. The realm of the real spirit, the true artist, the saint, the philosopher, is rarely achieved.
Why so few? Why is world history and evolution not stories of progress but rather this endless and futile addition of zeroes. No greater values have developed. Hell, the Greeks 3,000 years ago were just as advanced as we are. So what are these barriers that keep people from reaching anywhere near their real potential? The answer to that can be found in another question, and that’s this: Which is the most universal human characteristic - fear or laziness?”
From the film Waking Life (Richard Linklater, 2001)

The Light From Within..

I found this video suitable to go with the quote, so I decided to put them together..


People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is light from within.
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

While She Was Dreaming..

Another piece that I finished it's design just now.. Well I guess this one needs a little definition..

Definition:

In the picture you can see a girl in pose of sleeping.. But Because of the the way her hair is you may also think she's falling or going through depth of water..

At the background on top you can see darkness.. That's were the girl seems to be falling from.. And then at the bottom of the background you can see light and brightness.. This is were the girl in the picture will fall..

In conclusion our character is falling to a better place.. And as long as she is asleep and this is happening in her dreams, falling will not hurt her eventough it may seem scary and dangerous..

Motivation..

Change..

It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad..

C. S. Lewis

Here I Am..

Please help me with your comments.. How do you find my work?

His Corner..

Ok this is the first example of my design works(Except the blog header).. If you pay attention to the character in the picture you can see that it is made of lots of small parts.. Actually this is my own style.. I call it 'The Flames'.. Hope you like it ;)..
