  • "I have no religion, but if I were to choose one, it would be that of Shariati's." Jean-Paul Sartre ---------------------------------- My Lord, grant me success in struggling during failure, in having patience in disappointment, in going alone, in Jihad without weapons, in working without pay, in making sacrifice in silence, in having religious belief in the world, in having ideology without popular traditions, in having faith (Iman) without pretensions, non-conformity without immaturity, beauty without physical appearance, loneliness in the crowd, and loving with the beloved knowing about it. ----------------------------------

Persian New Year and Sizdah-Bedar

Posted by Parsin on April 1, 2008

Persian New Year starts on the first day of spring, and the holidays end on the 13th of Farvardin (first month in Persian Calender), the day of “Sizdah Bedar”. Today is Farvardin 13th and in Persian tradition people spend it outside in the nature. They go to parks, riversides, and anyplace they could find out there in the nature.

In Tehran, many leave their homes from very early in the morning to find a fair place to spend the whole day. Otherwise, they have to do their picnics beside the roads! The following pictures shows some of these events.
