Gratitude Girl

Running through the airport with one hand holding my beltless pants and the other being pulled by my dad is one of my oldest memories. I was four and on my way to see the world. I've traveled quite a bit since then and become familiar with many cultures, each of which has left an impact on me. Teaching ESL has allowed me to meet people from various backgrounds as well. I've adopted some customs and ignored others. I am who I am because of what I've seen and whom I've met – and I'm grateful.

Dear Toomaj: You've been on my mind... I respect you for being a morally upright person and a great artist. I love your work. You bring up the societal issues in Iran and fight corruption in a magnificent way through your rap songs. Thank you for being the voice of the people. Thank you for all you do to make your country and this world a better place. Thank you for being you! I'm sorry you have been arrested by this unjust regime. It breaks my heart that you are under torture. Your message to the people has been clear, though: Keep fighting the good fight! Your sisters and brothers are doing just that. We all appreciate your work and respect your strength. We are all grateful for you. Love, Respect, ... & Gratitude Noosha Ravaghi

Back to Reality

I've been writing to fictional characters for a few months now. I just want to take one day off from the fictional world and express my gratitude for everything in my real world. There's so much to be grateful for... especially the events in my life that may appear as challenges.
