Namaste and Salaam to eveyone of you Beautiful People! I am sending you all Highest Blessings and I hope today finds you on your true path, finding good health, success and bliss. Om Nama Shivaya. Word! :)
This past Saturday, I had the great honor of standing together with hundreds of people in Vancouver, on the steps of The Vancouver Art Gallery in our efforts to show support with Global Action Day for Iran.
My dear friend and one of my heros, Nazanin Afshin-Jam, was at the forefront. Nazanin is an international Human Rights Activist, one of the most inspirational women in the world, who is a FREEDOM FIGHTER! She speaks as a Voice for the voiceless, and fights injustice. She lives in Vancouver.
Can I get a “hell, yeah!!!”
This year, she received the Human Rights Hero Award (2009) from UN Watch in Geneva, Switzerland. (She also received the Global Citizenship Award by University of British Columbia’s Alumni Association, among many others…)
Nazanin is the president and co-founder of StopChildExecutions and is setting an example for me, and for all of us, on living life with PURPOSE AND INTENTION.
Amen!
As you can see, I’ve included the websites I would like you to see at the top. I have also included some of my favorite clips I’ve found (links) of Nazanin’s appearances.
I urge you guys to investigate further, and to educate yourselves with her work.
And with the world.
We do all live in our little bubbles, struggling to make ends meet and to stay healthy and find “happiness”. Granted. Life is often a struggle.
But we must endeavour to always be mindful of the fact that it is a luxury for us to live here, eat our happy little bananas, whine about the heatwave or the bike lanes, and everything else on our happy little plates.
We are veryveryvery lucky. Very blessed.
Let’s make ourselves aware, and use our healthy happy voices to contribute and continue to always live with RIGHTEOUSNESS and PURPOSE.
Create dialogue. Spread the word. Be a leader. Fight the Good Fight.
We must support the people of Iran in their struggle for BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS, DEMOCRACY, and FREEDOM.
Om Nama Shivaya.
Om Hare Om. :)
Stand tall and be inspirational,
Love,
Biffy
