The world is like a mountain and our acts are voice
The voice is like calls come back toward us
Spring song is heard. The earth shows its colorful face. Nature is on the path of excellence and leaves winter behind. It is as if this eternal teacher reminds people that the past is not unrelated to today and tomorrow. In order to reach spring, one must experience winter and note that the colder and snowier the winter, the better spring and summer will be ahead, and one must keep hope alive with what winter brings.
Imam Ali (PBUH) says: What has passed has been lost, and where is what is to come now? Get up and find this opportunity between two nothings. Referring to Imam Hasan (PBUH) he says: Like me, pay attention to studying the history of previous generations and add to your life by gaining their experiences and learn from their works.
Saadi also says:
O Saadi yesterday passed and tomorrow is still not available / between this and that, count today's opportunity
Of course, a person can use the present time correctly when he has the present. He must create the present and the future by being realistic and avoiding illusions and logical knowledge of the past.
Some writers consider history research to be a conversation between the past and the present. This conversation is a proof of the existence of the present in life. A society that is important to him now, does not stop at imaginative storytelling and turns to questioning the past. Herodotus, as a first Greek historian, began his work by asking about the past in order to discard the myths that had become believable. Such a society manifests the desire to reform.
The researcher of history tries to enter into a purposeful and disciplined dialogue with the past with the questions that are formed from the heart of today's need and to receive appropriate answers.
So, let's consider and appreciate this constant conversation.
The spring of faith, which the month of Ramadan promises, along with the spring of nature, blessed you!

I am from Isfahan, born in 1336 (1957). I entered Mashhad University with a bag of fiery feelings and a desire for rights and freedom. Less than three months into the academic year, I was arrested in Azar 1355 (November 1976), or perhaps in 1354 (1975). I was detained for about 35 days. The reason for my arrest was that we gathered like-minded students in the Faculty of Literature on 16th of Azar ...A narration from the event of 17th of Shahrivar
Early on the morning of Friday, 17th of Shahrivar 1357 (September 17, 1978), I found myself in an area I was familiar with, unaware of the gathering that would form there and the intense reaction it would provoke. I had anticipated a march similar to previous days, so I ventured onto the street with a tape recorder I had brought back from my recent trip abroad.A Review of the Book “Brothers of the Castle of the Forgetful”: Memoirs of Taher Asadollahi
"In the morning, a white-haired, thin captain who looked to be twenty-five or six years old came after counting and having breakfast, walked in front of everyone, holding his waist, and said, "From tomorrow on, when you sit down and get up, you will say, 'Death to Khomeini,' otherwise I will bring disaster upon you, so that you will wish for death."
