What is There to Celebrate?
by Shahrzad Arshadi
11 February 2009 will mark the 30th anniversary of Iran’s Islamic revolution!
I cannot believe it has already been 30 years! Only thinking about these 30 years makes me cry. My heart is aching!
There are nights I wish that when I opened my eyes in the morning, I could take a deep breath and say to myself, whoa, what a nightmare! Unfortunately, what happened to Iran is a horrible reality! I am not dreaming!
