Tajiks Worldwide Community: dunyo - Viewing Profile

arya-zadah, I've been telling exactly the same thing as you for the past 9 years that i've been living abroad. When I tell people that I'm Persian, and being Persian doesn't means being from only Iran. It Includes Tajikistan, Afganistan, Iran and Uzbekistan, people get excited that they have learned something that day and they start to ask even more questions. All I have to say is, it makes me feel proud being able to represent all those coutries.

Dar hadu sarhadshinosii jahon
Sarhadi Tojik
Zaboni Tojik ast,

To zabon dorad, vatandor ast ou
To zabondor ast, bisyor ast ou
Beshumor ast
Behisob ast
Behad ast.

Quotes from Hazor Sukhan:

Sukhane doshta bosh dilpazir, yo dile doshta posh sukhanpazir.

Ozodi vakhte ast ki ikhtiyori mo ba dasti akhl boshad.

Mard sher astu zan sherbon, Nigohdorii sher az sher budan dushvor tarast.

Bihishti in dunyo ishkh astu vafodori.

To break the cycle of poverty, our children need to be educated.Words of Bill Gates, since then he has donated large sums of money and build hundreds of schools in US to promote education. But lets be real we don't have some one like Bill Gates, the richest Tajiks are mainly drug lords.
You all have beautiful ideas, but it's hard to get every one committed. I think we all have to start close to home. What I do is when I go back home or when my family go's back home I buy school supplies for all my relatives children and the neighbors children. To get kids interested in school we have to give them what they like, so what i do is buy colorful pencils, pens with stickers on, pencil cases with pictures. To be honest it doesn't even costs me much, every year for 200 kids, which 40 of them are my cousines i spend $300. I know it's not much, but imagine if every one of you would do the same for their relatives and neighbors children. By doing so if even 50 of those children became more interested in school, my goal was achived.
Maybe we can't do big things for those children like build schools or buy books, but we can do basic things and start from there to get them 1st interested in school.It's just my idea!!!
