Day 1949: David Burns say, “The reason fantasy is an old but thriving literary genre is because fantasy stories speak to emotional truths.” Do you agree?

Myth and fantasy
speak directly to our souls
revealing humanity's
strengths and weaknesses.

Gratitude List For 12 Jalál

Today I am thankful...
          ...that my Bank of America checking account isn't overdrawn today.
          ...for the breakfast pastries I have to go with my coffee.
          ...that Ridvan begins at sunset today.
          ...for the boiled eggs, cheese, and grapes I had for breakfast.
          ...for the peanut butter I had for my morning snack.

DAY 2344: "I decided it is better to scream. Silence is the real crime against humanity." ~ Nadezhda Mandelstam
What do you think?

Silence is the enemy of justice!
When injustice prevails
no human being is free or happy.

Hate and injustice
are partners,
and degrade the species
and the individual soul.

Don't remain silent
when confronted
by injustice,
but shout
or scream
when pointing out its presence.
