Introducing a book

      Maybe you have bought many books which are so useful and you like to suggest your friends or you are looking for a suitable gift to present your friend, well to continue please .I have bought a book which is named FOREVER THOUGHTS (افکار جاویدان) .This book includes many precious utterances of prominent figures in the world, such as Prophet Mohammad, Imam Ali, Dante, Bernard Shaw, Napoleon and many others. FOREVER THOUGHTS had collected by Mr. Ali Mokhtarnia in two parts and published by Omid Mehr Publisher in 1389. On the upper side of each page the collector labeled a phrase that is so nice and attractive – Thoughts to Think (اندیشه هایی برای تفکر) - . Unfortunately it is not in English, but it has many profits which covered this lack. So, if you are interested to learn, to use prominent figures` experiences and if you want to present a suitable gift, I suggest you buy it certainly. I will try to gradually translate each utterance and present it.


Thanks a lot.

Prophet Mohammad: “Everyone’s precious is up to his knowledge. “

Are you more clever in Spring?

Hi Friends.
Rezy a good friend of mine has left a comment which, it contains an interesting article. So, with thanks of Rezy, I have written it here. I hope you read and enjoy it.


If you are like most people, you may think intelligence changes from season to season. You are probably sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the yea .A scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947), could understand from research about people in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is better for creative thinking than summer heat .this does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year . However, it means that the mental abilities of most people are lower in the summer.So, spring is the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring people’s mental abilities are effected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time for them to take a long vacation from thinking!
