despite it all, i want to move to iran, and be beside my family. i feel so disconnected from america.

i know that without my iranian parents meeting in a nightclub in st. louis, i would not have been born. i’m ever grateful to be an american, i just can’t help but think of my beautiful homeland.

photos included are of my grandparents on both sides, in iran. i never got to meet them, but i feel their love in pictures.

I can relate to this.

I was just thinking of this today, but more specifically related to how I am making this country better, though, my parents homeland is riddled with abject poverty. I day dream on returning to the motherland to live forever, but I know that's not something I'd do.

I hope our country is freed from the Mullahs regime, allowing us to rebuild Iran from the ground up. 💚🕊️❤️

my hope is strong. my grandpa who is in the first photo i posted, my dad on his left, was the mayor of Isfahan before the mullahs control.

💚🕊️❤️

آیا می دانستید که پادشاه خ. لویی، جایی که من زندگی می کنم، برای ملاقات با مهندسان جنگنده جت؟ پدربزرگ دوست پسر آمریکایی من بارها به ملاقات او رفته است! این همان هتلی است که او در آن اقامت داشته و در کنار آپارتمان من است.

What would you do over there in Iran ?

be with my family, explore the beautiful country.

Iranian culture is incredibly rich. You are very lucky to have such a heritage.

You can live wherever you want to, you are a free person 🤗 and when living in another country you will adopt and respect its culture and traditions, you will learn its language. But always remember about your roots. Globalisation is inevitable on a macro level, but as an individual you can decide to preseve your native language, your native traditions, your native spirit. Its enriching your personality anyway and expand the limits of your world 😀
