Once a man explained to me, he had gotten into an intercity cab to Tehran.
He continued,” During my journey, I didn’t speak about anything. I was not worried about money either.
After some while, on the middle of a desert, I got shocked when I found out there was no money either in the right and the left pockets of my pants, or in my blouse pocket!
There was not even a penny! … Then I guessed it was in my wallet!
But it just was empty!
I turned to the driver and asked,” If you give a drive to someone and after a while he tells you that he has no money on, how will you react?”
‘I will judge upon his/her face!”
I added,” Now, imagine I am the same one”.
He suddenly slowed down and took a look at the mirror and said”
You don’t look a bad guy, so I will fetch you.”
***Oh! “Aba Abdullah (pbuh)3”***
By thinking of you as a hero, I have paved my life path; wishing to have a spiritual saving.
But now when I review my life, I see I have saved nothing!
I saved nothing. Just I sigh and feel a grief for wasting my whole life.
Darling Hussein ( pbuh), will you lead us to the destination???
Or you will leave us here in the middle of the wandering desert?
I don’t tie a cloth to a wish tree, but I tie my soul to your eyes. You! The rescue ship.
