Soosan Khanoom, there are so many good ones
by Anahid Hojjati on Thu Aug 11, 2011 11:27 AM PDTI wanted to choose another good one like the one that notes that being in love is like being shot with an arrow. However, there are really all good. Also, your blog makes one become curious about how would our answers be at those young ages? I think that it all depends on the times we grew up and what we read and watched.
I can't figure out what I would say at eight. Did Iranian kids who grew up in shah's time (not under IRI) at young age have an answer for these questions? What would they be? For instance they, miggt say about the role of beauty regarding love that "Of course, Fardin loves Foroozan, who wouldn't?".
thanks Anahid
