Each year when Norooz comes and we are assembling the Sofreh Haf Seen, it makes me think of how amazing life is. How God created all of us so unique and all the beautiful things He put around us. Foods with amazing colors, and flavors, drinks of various kinds, nature with so many awe inspiring visions one could never utter in words, and so much more....

We are given companions so that we would not be alone. And the ability to make things to keep ourselves busy and amused as well as tools to live better, more functional, more capable.
(This is Arya's and Jamil's Norooz basket full of goodies)

We come into this world with parents to help feed us, cloth us, teach us what we need to know to be on our own and one day be parents God willing...

We are given feelings...so that we can love and give love...and hugs...:)

Of responsibility for people around us, our environments, the knowledge to learn and teach and build and advance in so many things in life....

To me Norooz is not only a celebration of Spring as it comes new every year....It's a celebration of life that has been given to us in this world to see who we are and what we are by the One who created us...and not forget that our being here is for a reason. And that one day we must return with only our deeds in our hands.
