Who Am I, Without Exile? – Mahmoud Darwish
…..
Water
binds me
to your name …
Nothing takes me from the butterflies of my dreams
to my reality: not dust and not fire. What
will I do without roses from Samarkand? What
will I do in a theater that burnishes the singers with its lunar
stones? Our weight has become light like our houses
in the faraway winds. We have become two friends of the strange
creatures in the clouds … and we are now loosened
from the gravity of identity’s land. What will we do … what
will we do without exile, and a long night
that stares at the water?…..

Minimalism is an attitude of life, it is ideology !!

How might your life be better with less?
MINIMALISM: A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT THE IMPORTANT THINGS examines the many flavors of minimalism by taking the audience inside the lives of minimalists from all walks of life—families, entrepreneurs, architects, artists, journalists, scientists, and even a former Wall Street broker—all of whom are striving to live a meaningful life with less.
The Pigeon Towers of Iran
Oι περίτεχνοι περιστερώνες της Περσίας!
During the 16th and 17th century, particularly around the time of the Safavid reign, the Iranian folks built a large number of towers to house pigeons. The pigeons were domesticated not for their meat (pigeon is especially revered in Islam), but rather for their droppings, which the locals collected and used to fertilize melon and cucumber fields.
Κατά τη διάρκεια του 16ου και 17ου αιώνα, κυρίως στα χρόνια της βασιλείας των Σαφαβιδών στην Περσία, ο λαός έχτισε έναν μεγάλο αριθμό πύργων για περιστέρια, τα οποία εξημέρωναν όχι τόσο για το κρέας τους όσο για τα περιττώματά τους, που τα χρησιμοποιούσαν για να λιπάνουν τις καλλιέργειες πεπονιών και αγγουριών.

“Every shut eye ain’t sleep and every good-bye ain’t gone”.
Εvery closed eye ain’t sleep means that when you ignore something happening , doesn’t mean you’re stupid and that you don’t know.
And that every goodbye ain’t gone , means it stays in your memory , especially if it was someone important. You’ll always remember it.
Kάθε κλειστό μάτι δεν κοιμάται, σημαίνει ότι όταν αγνοείς κάτι που συμβαίνει, δεν σημαίνει ότι είσαι ηλίθιος και ότι δεν ξέρεις.
Και ότι κάθε αντίο δεν έχει φύγει, σημαίνει ότι μένει στη μνήμη σας, ειδικά αν κάτι ήταν σημαντικό θα το θυμάσαι πάντα.

“Make Room for Miracles”
Decluttering and space clearing isn’t just about throwing stuff out and wafting an incense stick around. Nup – it’s powerful. It’s like a physical prayer – a magical way to shift your life by changing your home. It’s alchemy. It’s divine. It’s transformation.
What It Means To Be Greek
.
To be Greek is not only syrtaki and Zorbas ….
Being Greek means being the best possible person you can be
1. “[It means] being part of something that is bigger myself, and having a huge support system.”
2. “It means recognizing how privileged we are and using our power to help others through service and philanthropy.”
3. “It means knowing there’s a whole group of people who are behind me no matter what. An indescribable support system.”
4. “[It is] a home away from home with sisters I can always count on, and a tight community who supports one another and pushes one another to be the best version of themselves.”
5. “It means always wearing your letters and representing your chapter well. It means carrying on the ideals of your founders and helping your chapter be the best it can be.”
6. “[It is] friends I can rely on and having a solid group of strong women I can go to when I need them most. Opportunities, friendships and connections I know will last beyond college.”
7. “It means having a group of brothers who always have my back.”
8. “It means being part of a caring and inspirational community. There are always people who are there for you, whether they are in your chapter or other members of the Greek community. We all support each other, and I can’t imagine how different my life would be without these amazing people.”
9. “It means having a group of people that keep me accountable with my academics and who inspire me to be a better person.”
10. “It redefines family and what it means to be a loyal friend to someone. It emphasizes inclusivity and provides a space to always have someone to study with, live with and work with.”
11. “Being Greek, to me, means being celebrated as an individual while having the opportunity to be a part of something bigger than myself. Greek means growing as an individual through my organization and Greek life as a community.”
12. “It means having a bunch of people who all want to make the world better and want to do it together.”
13. “It’s like being in an extracurricular group, except it’s full of people who I love seeing every day. It’s my second family in a way.”
14. “Being Greek means I have a united goal and something in common with diverse, intelligent and driven people who want to see me succeed.”

Shushtar, Historical Hydraulic System
.
ΙRΑΝ Shushtar, Historical Hydraulic System, inscribed as a masterpiece of creative genius, can be traced back to Darius the Great in the 5th century B.C.
It involved the creation of two main diversion canals on the river Kârun one of which, Gargar canal, is still in use providing water to the city of Shushtar via a series of tunnels that supply water to mills. It forms a spectacular cliff from which water cascades into a downstream basin.
It then enters the plain situated south of the city where it has enabled the planting of orchards and farming over an area of 40,000 ha. known as Mianâb (Paradise).
Το Ιστορικό Υδραυλικό Σύστημα του Shushtar, που είναι εγγεγραμμένο ως αριστούργημα δημιουργικής ιδιοφυΐας, ανήκει στον Μεγάλο Δαρείο και χρονολογείται τον 5ο αιώνα π.Χ.

The National Day of Singapore 2018
.
The National Day of Singapore is celebrated every year on August 9, in commemoration of Singapore’s independence from Malaysia in the year 1965
Singapore until the early 19th century was a peaceful fishermen’s island. Then the British diagnosed his potential and in 1819 they founded a commercial colony there. The locals in 1963 decided to live free, and after being incorporated for two years with Malaysia (1963-1965), they thought better and were independent.
H Σιγκαπούρη μέχρι τις αρχές του 19ου αιώνα ήταν ένα φιλήσυχο νησί ψαράδων. Τότε οι Βρετανοί διέγνωσαν τις δυνατότητες του και το 1819 ίδρυσαν εκεί εμπορική αποικία. Οι ντόπιοι το 1963 αποφάσισαν να ζήσουν πιο ελεύθεροι και αφού ενσωματώθηκαν για δυο χρόνια με τη Μαλαισία (1963-1965), το σκέφθηκαν καλύτερα και ανεξαρτητοποιήθηκαν.

Jorogumo is a woman spider – H γυναίκα “αράχνη”
Στην Ιαπωνική μυθολογία, η Jorōgumo, ένα είδος Yokai (υπερφυσικό τέρας), θεωρείται ότι είναι μια αράχνη Nephila, η οποία μπορεί να μεταμορφώνεται σε μια σαγηνευτική γυναίκα.
Ο μύθος λέει ότι η πανέμορφη γυναίκα προσελκύει έναν άνδρα σε μια ήσυχη καλύβα για να παίξουν Biwa , ένα είδος ιαπωνικού λαούτου. Με τον ήχο του οργάνου αποσπά την προσοχή του και ταυτόχρονα τυλίγει το θύμα της με μεταξωτές κλωστές. Θα είναι το επόμενο γεύμα της!
The legend comes from the Edo period and era ruled by shoguns that lasted from 1603 to 1868. When a spider lives for 400 years it gains the ability to grow to the size of a cow and can shape-shift into an attractive young lady. Continue reading
Do not let …..
“Gossip dies the moment it hits a wise person’s ears.”
Avoid gossips and do not engage gossipers.
For it has been said that people who love to talk to you about other people are the same people who love to talk about you to other people.
Γιατί κουτσομπολεύουμε;
Σύμφωνα με τους ψυχολόγους, ο κύριος λόγος που το κάνουμε είναι η επιθυμία μας να απλοποιηθεί η διαδικασία της οικοδόμησης κοινωνικών δεσμών με τους άλλους. Οι αντιπάθειες που μοιράζονται από δυο ανθρώπους μπορούν να τους φέρουν πιο κοντά από ότι τα κοινά ενδιαφέροντα.

Night is the Mother of Day; Chaos the Neighbor of God.
Night is the Mother of Day; Chaos the Neighbor of God.
“The Oracle Within” – Dick Sutphen
A Sufi teaching tells of the man who visited a great mystic to find out how to let go of his chains of attachment and his prejudices.
Μια διδασκαλία Sufi λέει για έναν άνθρωπο που επισκέφθηκε έναν μεγάλο μυστικιστή για να μάθει πώς να αφήσει τις αλυσίδες της προσκόλλησης στις προκαταλήψεις του.
Instead of answering him directly, the mystic jumped to his feet and bolted to a nearby pillar, flung his arms around it, grasping the marble surface as he screamed, “Save me from this pillar! Save me from this pillar!”
Αντί να του απαντήσει απευθείας, ο μυστικιστής πήδηξε στα πόδια του και Continue reading

Medieval Men and Women Were a Lot Like Us, Their Made-Up Monsters Show
.
Μεσαιωνικά show τεράτων
The Taming the Tarasque, from Hours of Henry VIII, France, Tours, ca. 1500. The Morgan Library & Museum/Graham S. Haber
The current exhibition at the Morgan Library and Museum titled “Medieval Monsters: Terrors, Aliens and Wonders” is a masterclass in Medieval lore. While the source material might be, on average, more than six centuries old, it actually makes for pretty good fare for pop-culture aficionados.
Mildly annoyed at how long you have to wait for the final installment of Game of Thrones? This exhibition, rife with dragons, wyverns, sphinxes, unicorns and “sea swines,” is for you. It’s also for anyone with a passion for gender studies or a voracious appetite for examining power dynamics in imagery (i.e. there’s at least a little cultural relevance outside the George R.R. Martin fandom).
Medieval Monsters continues through September 23 at The Morgan Library.

Tell Me, My Friend
My friend, you who love so deeply:
Could you please, tell me what love is?
Love is death for those who live
And life to those who are dying;
It is the very joy of daylight,
Sweet sorrow in death…
The homesickness of the journey,
Happiness in the haven….

The Real-Life Inspiration for “Beauty and the Beast” Is Too Dark for Disney
Η Ωραία και το Τέρας: μια αληθινή ιστορία
It may be a “tale as old as time,” but “Beauty and the Beast” isn’t “true as it can be.” Like many fairy tales, the Disney classic you’re familiar with is really a new, child-friendly version of a historically dark tale. But this story has even darker roots.
For thousands of years, folktales from around the world have included descriptions of a bride with an animal groom. When French novelist Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve finally published the first written version of the story in 1740, it was based on a sad but true tale.

Sunshine all the time makes a desert

Why is variety in our lives important?
This may sound a bit counter intuitive at first. Winning all the time is bad for you. It’s kind of like having only sunshine. Without an occasional loss, how do you know the thrill of victory? Without the occasional setback, how would you know the satisfaction of completion?
Γιατί η ποικιλία στη ζωή μας είναι σημαντική;

Mapping Out Freedom: Escaped Slaves Used Braids For Direction
The women would weave the maps in their hair, carving out paths with their cornrows. Some patterns were even utilized to deliver secret messages.
Braids. They are an easy, go-to style to up chicness, comfort, and convenience. However, for some escaped slaves in South America, braids were a survival mechanism and led to freedom.

Dire Straits – Brothers In Arms
…..Now the sun’s gone to hell
And the moon’s riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it’s written in the starlight
And every line on your palm
We’re fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
.
Care ……. Craig Santos Perez
My 16-month old daughter wakes from her nap
and cries. I pick her up, press her against my chest
and rub her back until my palm warms
like an old family quilt. “Daddy’s here, daddy’s here,”
I whisper. Here is the island of Oʻahu, 8,500 miles
from Syria. But what if Pacific trade winds suddenly
became helicopters? Flames, nails, and shrapnel
indiscriminately barreling towards us? What if shadows
cast against our windows aren’t plumeria
tree branches, but soldiers and terrorists marching
in heat? Would we reach the desperate boats of
the Mediterranean in time? If we did, could I straighten
my legs into a mast, balanced against the pull and drift
of the current? “Daddy’s here, daddy’s here,” I
whisper. But am I strong enough to carry her across
the razor wires of sovereign borders and ethnic
hatred? Am I strong enough to plead: “please, help
us, please, just let us pass, please, we aren’t
suicide bombs.” Am I strong enough to keep walking
even after my feet crack like Halaby pepper fields after
five years of drought, after this drought of humanity.
Trains and buses rock back and forth to detention centers.
Yet what if we didn’t make landfall? What if here
capsized? Could you inflate your body into a buoy
to hold your child above rising waters? “Daddy’s
here, daddy’s here,” I whisper. Drowning is
the last lullaby of the sea. I lay my daughter
onto bed, her breath finally as calm as low tide.
To all the parents who brave the crossing: you and your
children matter. I hope your love will teach the nations
that emit the most carbon and violence that they should,
instead, remit the most compassion. I hope, soon,
the only difference between a legal refugee and
an illegal migrant will be how willing
we are to open our homes, offer refuge, and
carry each other towards the horizon of care.

German Emigration Center Bremerhaven
An exciting journey through 300 years of emigration and immigration history
Waiting on the wharf, waving good-bye from the gangway, then the journey starts. For more than seven million emigrants, who left from Bremerhaven between 1830-1974 on their journey to the New World, this is the moment of departure. For the visitors of the German Emigration Center this is the start of their travel through 300 years of German migration history.
Located on that very harbor where the emigrant ships departed you will now find the awarded theme museum in which vistors follow the personal path of an emigrant from the time of departure, to the conditions experienced during the crossing up until the arrival in the New World.
After emigrating to the New World visitors immigrate to Germany: In a reconstructed shopping mall of the year 1973, the year the Federal Republic of Germany enacted a recruitment Stopp for foreign workerk, visitors trace the footsteps of immigrants such as Huguenots, Guest Workers or Syrian civil war refugees.
