meeting new people is fun. and i really mean it. take it from me- an introvert. but that usually depends on the type of person you meet. sometimes you meet people who have common interests with you and then there’s few people who are just magical. they talk with you without judging you for not speaking as much as the other people in the group are speaking. they understand that you are a good listener and appreciate you for speaking the right thing at the right moment. and that’s what really friends are to me. and we meet people like them very rarely and i hope i’ll find the right community of people in coming years.

If I had a wish, I would want nothing fancy, just a normal day when all of us could be together as a family; a day where we could just cook, eat, talk, and laugh. I wondered how many people around the world were having such a normal day and didn't know how special and sacred it was.

"When you kill a man, you steal a life," Baba said. "You steal his wife's right to a husband, rob his children of a father. When you tell a lie, you steal someone's right to the truth. When you cheat, you steal the right to fairness. Do you see?"

The war might destroy our houses, but it can't extinguish our spirit.
