Haha, I felt pretty creative with that title. I prefer my name pronounced
the Farsi way. (ta-lí-yeh) But all other pronunciations will be embraced :)
I'm all about the parantheticals.
I enjoy thoughts, people and solitude.
I'm not sure how to reveal to you who I am,
I'm not sure if it's time for that yet.
But so we don't become missed connections, here's a

SIN FRONTERA

"A drone strike is a terror weapon, we don’t talk about it that way. It is; just imagine you are walking down the street and you don’t know whether in 5 minutes there is going to be an explosion across the street from some place up in the sky that you can’t see. Somebody will be killed, and whoever is around will be killed, maybe you’ll be injured if you’re there. That is a terror weapon. It terrorizes villages, regions, huge areas. It’s the most massive terror campaign going on by a long shot."

Hazrat Zahra (s.a.) proved that like men, a woman too, can reach the most sublime levels of ethics and worship on the mystical path…
In preserving the great prestige of women, all should imitate that unique feminine gem, Her Holiness Zahra (a.s.). The history of Islam is witness to the immense respect that the Prophet (s.a.w.) had for Hazrat Zahra (s.a.) which also powerfully reflects on the importance of women in society. If they are not superior to men, they are definitely not any inferior.
~ Imam Khomeini (RA)

"مشكل عشق نه در حوصلة دانش ماست
حلّ اين نكته بدين فكر خطا نتوان كرد"
The dilemma of love is not within the reach of our knowledge;
by these misguided notions, one cannot solve the riddle.

Sadrā Islāmic Philosophy Research Institute: Papers on the Ontology of Mulla Sadrā
When it is proved that everything has life, perception, and awareness, it will also be proved that it possesses the motivation and enthusiasm for obtaining perfection; in other words, it is full of love. Love relates all things to each other like a chain: ‘bodies’ are in love with ‘nature’, and nature means the world of matter, and loves its own ‘controlling soul’; the soul is in love with ‘intellectuality’, which is its perfection, and all intellects, souls, natures, and particles are in love and obsessed with the ‘Necessary Being’ and Pure Existence, Who is Absolute Perfection and the goal and end of the development of all objects, and this very love flows mutually from up to down, since, as mentioned previously, every cause loves the signs of its existence, that is, its effects and creations.
According to the theory of metaphysics, the whole world is full of love, and wherever there is existence, life, and beauty, that place swells with love, and it is this very view that grants meaning and enjoyment to man’s life. The spirit of Islamic gnosis and Mulla Sadra’s school of philosophy is mixed with the essence of love, and possesses a particular, all-inclusive, and exact view of the world of existence.
