salamalykom va rahmatollah to all hamrahs specially branch of olive
The way our hamrahs chose their nicknames talks, among other things, about their characteristics. For example passion, miniature, ebne sabill, sadzaban and branch of olive and .... this last one gives me the feeling of peace. For my own part I did not actually choose my nickname. It was chosen by some of our other hamrahs, may be because at the time I just returend form Mecca and Haj. I am not still sure that this name shows my character much though!
Anyway I just wanted to say that I really loved the way branch of olive analyzed our writings about the issue of running and death, specially since it was written in English and it was written good. I just wanted to add to what has been said here or before. Human beings are really amazing. People can do something in their lives to get close to what they are meant for ... (اعلی علیین ) or on the contrary reach to where you cannot imagine (.... اولئک کالانعام). and (... اسفل السافلین ). What is important in my view is what we do in our lives to become close to one of these two extremes. And in my view learning from profit (SA), and Imams (AS) sireh will definitly guid us in this respect. This in turn will give us reponsibility and forces us to have position in our lives. Then for example one cannot sit down and enjoy his/her life the way he/she is doing now when he/she sees what is happening to people around the world every minute, by enemies of God and witnesses all the sufferings that these people are experiencing. That is it. Ofcourse if that can be called enjoying life after all!
God bless us all inshallah
