Equilibrium in development

Nowrooz holiday passed.
I had a good holiday rather than previous years. We – I and my family – went to the north of the country, like so many other people. Masooleh is a small town in the north that we viewed it. It was so beautiful because of its green nature. I had taken some photos of there, but my nice camera fell into the ground and became flawed. I wish that I can upload those photos here. But now...

This photo you are seeing is from the scene in front of my home in Tehran. I took it by the mobile's camera. Our alley's name is "Behesht" that means paradise. (Paradise itself comes from "Pardis", other Old Persian word which means Behesht!) These pink blossoms are the most prominent indicative of spring in our alley. I can watch this beautiful tree when I am in my room from behind the window.

Tonight when I arrived at my English class, the teacher congratulated us, for we are able now to enrich uranium up to 3.5 percent! Of course, there was irony in his accent. There are several reasons for this irony. Previous night when an old friend sent a message to say congratulations to me, I told him:" Dear friend! I think being happy for this, requires – at least – to some extent political unawareness. Even, it is possible that regime loses its survival for this subject, how can it keep this technology for us? And at any rate, America will not allow us to have nuclear technology. Then why you are happy?"

Regardless of political situation, having nuclear technology is not so logical for us. Development must be balanced. We can not have regress in some parts and progress in other parts. I think, especially in this State, we are going back rapidly and seriously in some parts such as economical, cultural and political development. As a citizen, I do not want nuclear technology instead of losing those things. Announcing to reach to the nuclear knowledge, the State's improper behaviors are still in full force. It can be a conspiracy to misguide people so that they do not pursue their more fundamental problems.

That is why there is irony in our congratulating.
