A letter from a CIS member in Iran...
I wake up and suddenly I remember, it is my birthday and I am 19-year-old today, Waaahh time goes by so quickly.
I remember the term, "Forgotten Generation."
When I was 12, I used to hear the term "Forgotten Generation" but never really paid attention. However, this morning, I just noticed that how life can pass so quickly and what if the current political situation continues in Iran and nothing will ever change?? It was a wake up call, we need to do something.
I guess most of us don’t want to take the responsibility of doing something and we want some body else to take the lead so the rest can follow. In fact some times we like to watch those who lead us fail, so we can witness their failure.
Or perhaps we want those people who lead to be successful but we quickly lose interest, sit back, and wait for others to do the job.
But may be we sit back because we are afraid to be confronted and we have the right. With the way the Islamic Republic has been taking lives who wouldn’t??
But it is not right to wait for a hero to come and rescue us because it would never happen.
Each one of us makes our country. So unless each one of us become one we wouldn’t be able to change anything. We have to learn to trust each other and learn to be united.
We have to start from some where. Me and my friends have already started, please if you read this and feel a change in yourself, please start too. I am afraid if we don't do anything me and other seventy million Iranians may never experience the freedom and democracy.
