Fire

آری، آری ، زندگی زیباست زندگی آتشگهی دیرنده پا برجاست گر بیفروزیش، رقص شعله اش در هر کران پیداست ورنه، خاموش است وخاموشی گناه ماست سیاوش کسرایی / / / / / Life is like fire, can burns forever. If we turn it on we can see flame dances from far away, other wise its dark and thats our fault.

THis is my old post, i just republish it again!!!! :)

Passion for God
When I was thinking about how ppl can luv god, I used to think about injustices and all excuses that ppl brought to prove ther is no god, and I used to have the excuse that if some thing is larger than u, and u can't get to know it and u don't know what is it, then how can u love it?
But i did belive that ppl like Hafiz or rumi MAybe Toulstoy , plato, Jisues they were in luv with god, Although those ppl were human like us, But I thought getting to the pioint of luving god and going throught all those 7 stages ( 7 kooye eshgh ra atar gash,..) it might be alittle Idealistic, and out of reach of every moment of every human, it u have to go throught a not easy , hard path of knowledge and passion, and pations,
Last night I could feel how god was great, and how normal ppl like me could sacrifse their life to keep their faith, and I'm not talking about good firends of prophits, at 2005 or 1383 yrs ago, not ppl that we read their stories in books:those who have been tourched till death and have been asked to admit they r not a beliver and they died and didn't. But I'm talking about ppl in 21 Century, ppl who get killed adn froze in mountaine and they did not convert from what they belive.
Today i coul d easily feel that there is only one god, O think god is like love every body might be able to excperiance it in their life, and its a personal choice to belive in it or not, or every body might experiance it in a uniqe way, and uniqe level, and have a uniqe respond to it, but that wpouls not change any thing about love itself, it would not make it harsh or bittersweat, and it won't have a diffrent face just becuse u live in Asia or north America, or South africa, and doesnot care if u have a crystal plate in ur house or u don't, love might be as simple as sharing ur food when u r starving. or offering a hand to some one u had fight with.
it might be easy at one point, or it might need lots of sacrifices
Having faith might be as easy as wearing a ring that has ur prophet naem on it, or havingignoring all peer presure and pain and pleasure of drinking and fooling around with opposite sexand even admite it just for the sake of ur faith,
Seeing how much some ppl went trhough problems, and how many sacrifices they made to live in a place where they can imporive and be a more educated person and pracitece thier faith with no fear.
When u look at eyes of a beliver and u know u can trust those eyes regardeless what happen, regardless how much u know that personthat is love, or maybe faith, or maybe god, and at that point u know god and love is the same, and god is the only God regardl;ess how we praise him, and what we call him in bottom of our heart.
