This year is 2582 in the Iranian imperial calendar. A hundred years from now, in 2682, all of us, even our friends and those around us, will be in the ground. Perhaps no memory of us will remain; perhaps nobody will remember our names. The car we worked so hard to buy will be gone. Even if our house still stands, it will have passed through many hands, and who knows who will live in it. Perhaps all that remains of us will be a framed photograph on someone's wall. Our selves, our faces, our memories, our words may all be gone. But... What we do today for Iran's freedom may be the one thing we leave to the free Iran of a hundred years from now, something for future generations to remember with gratitude. So rather than become dust in history's pages, let us write ourselves into the story of a free Iran's renewal. #بازگشت_به_ایرانیت
