+Life can be beautiful, but it can also be difficult and challenging. It is a mix of good and bad experiences, and it is up to each individual to find the beauty in it. Some people may find the beauty in simple things like spending time with loved ones or enjoying nature, while others may find it in achieving their goals or overcoming obstacles. The perception of beauty is different for everyone.
+
+It is true that life has its own share of ups and downs, but one can always choose to have a positive outlook and try to find the beauty in life. But also it's important to mention that it's okay to not find life beautiful at some moments, it's normal to have difficult times, and feeling sadness, anger, or frustration, is human. Is important to be honest with your feelings, and look for support, and help if needed.
+
+In summary, life can be beautiful, but it depends on one's perspective and how they choose to view it.

+
+هنگامی که از پارسی‌گویی با دوستانم سخن میگویم، پرسشی که بسیار آورده می‌شود، «چرا» است. این پرسش بجا است، برای همین در این نوشته میکوشم از دید خودم پاسخی به این پرسش بدهم.
+
+نخست، نیاز میدانم که روشن کنم چه چیز‌هایی از دید من پاسخی بر این چرایی نیستند. گاهی زمانی که در مورد پارسی‌گویی گفتگو می‌شود، برخی گمان میبرند این از روی «برتر» داستند زبان پارسی به دیگر زبان‌هاست؛ ولی از دید من اینگونه تراز‌بندی زبان‌ها از پایه چالش‌برانگیز است، زبان‌ها برتر از دیگر نیستند، و بر در همین سو، زبان پارسی هم برتر از زبان عربی، ترکی، فرانسوی یا دیگر زبان‌هایی که با آنها آمیخته شده نیست.
+
+در همین سو، انگیزه زدایش همه‌ی واژه‌های ناسره از پارسی روزانه نیست. من گمان نمیکنم که در هیچ هنگامی در آینده، در این جهانی درآمیخته در هم، زبانی بتواند سراسر «سره» بماند. زبان‌ها با هم درآمیخته میشوند و این بخشی سرشتین از فرایند رویش آنهاست.
+
+پس چرا؟
+
+انگیزه‌ی من از کوشش برای بازیابی زبان پارسی سره، بدست آوردن دیدی به فرهنگ و زندگی گذشتگانمان است. زبان و فرهنگ بسیار با هم درآمیخته هستند، و دگرش یکی از آنها، در دیگری نمان می‌شود. برای روشن شدن این سخن، چند نمونه از درآمیختگی و دگرش زبان و فرهنگ و زندگی مردمان در کنار هم را با هم میخوانیم.
+
+## هند و پرچم زرپرانی
+
+![Flag of India](/img/Flag_of_India.png)
+
+پرچم هند را اگر ببینیم به چشم، بیشترمان میگوییم این پرچم از رنگ‌های نارنگی، سپید و سبز ساخته شده، ولی با نگاهی به سرگذشت رنگ نارنگی، نکته‌ی داستان را خواهیم گرفت.
+
+رنگ نارنگی، که در زبان‌های هندی‌-اروپایی نامش از ریشه‌ی بسیار کهن «nāraṅgamu» کنادایی گرفته شده، در درازای زمان جایگزین واژه‌ی دیگری شد که برای نشان‌کردن این رنگ بکار برده میشد: زرپران.
+
+پیش از آنکه واژه‌ی نارنگی به زبان‌هایی چون انگلیسی برسد، و برای
+نشان‌کردن این رنگ بکار برود، این رنگ را رنگ «زرپرانی» یا در زبان‌های
+گوناگون با واژه‌های بدست آمده از آن چون زعفران (عربی)،  safranum (لاتین)،
+azafrán (اسپانیایی) و saffron (انگلیسی) نشان می‌کردند.
+{% cite asbaghi1988persische %}
+
+ازین‌رو، رنگ پرچم هند نارنگی نیست، چرا که زرپرانی‌است، ولی با گذشت زمان، با جایگزین شدن واژه‌ی نارنگی بجای واژه‌ی زرپران، از آنجایی که رنگ زرپران با رنگ نارنگ کمی گوناگونی دارد، دید مردم درباره‌ی رنگ پرچم هم دگرگون شد، و مردم پرچم هند را در بسیاری از کشور‌ها، به رنگ نارنگی میشناسند.
+
+این نمونه‌ایست از هُنایش زبان بر فرهنگ و دید ما به جهان، چرا که زبان ابزاریست برای دسته‌بندی جهان، تا بتوانیم آن را آسان تر دریابیم و برای همسو شدن در دریافتمان از پیرامونمان آن را بکار میبریم. با دگرش واژه‌ی بکار برده شده برای نشاندن یک رنگ، میتوان رنگ بکار برده شده در جهان را دگرگون کرد. پندارید که اگر همچنان رنگ زرپرانی بجای رنگ نارنگی در فرهنگ‌های ما بود، میتوانیم گمان کنیم که رنگ‌های بکار برده شده در پوشاک، بسته‌بندی‌ها، ماشین‌ها و همه‌چیز گونه‌ی دیگری میبود.

 Pieces from Austerlitz:
 “As I think of how little we can hold in mind, how everything is constantly lapsing into oblivion with every extinguished life, how the world is, as it were, draining itself, in that the history of countless places and objects which themselves have no power of memory is never heard, never described or passed on”

 "What if some day or night, a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness and say to you: "This life as now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more; and there will be nothing new in it, but every pain and every joy and every thought and sigh and everything unutterably small or great in your life will have to return to you, all in the same succession and sequence--even this spider and this moonlight between the trees, and even this moment and I myself. The eternal hourglass of existance is turned upside down again and again, and you with it, speck of dust!" Would you not throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse the demon who spoke thus? Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: "You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine." If this thought gained possession of you, it would change you as you are, or perhaps crush you." - Nietzsche

 More and more he went running to the public house. But it was no longer to be among men, it was to get drunk. One might imagine him sitting there thinking those slow thoughts without words. One might predict that the day would come when we would realise very suddenly, very clearly, all that he had been thinking about, and, when this urgent, terrible thought had been translated into its own terms of action, he would be quietly hanged by the neck until he was as dead as he had been before he was alive.
