Ali Karimi and Ali Daei didn’t achieve fame for no reason. Of course, they worked hard themselves, but don’t overlook the cheers, whistles, claps, and chants of the spectators in their progress.
Ali Daei’s repeated goals and Ali Karimi’s beautiful dribbles, the success of every player and every actor, owe much to the encouragement of viewers and spectators. Applause gives excitement to a person and sometimes amplifies their inner strength a hundredfold.
The dream I nurture for the future of my life is closely linked to encouragement. Many times, I like to close my eyes and think about my dreams. I like to think: I am now a skillful speaker and orator. I want to stand on a high platform and deliver speeches to the people. During the speech, constantly delivering exciting statements so that people continuously cheer for me and express their emotions for me.
I pretend that I want to continue my speech, and the audience pretends to be thrilled, repeatedly interrupting my speech. I would like to see tears of joy in the eyes of the enthusiasts while giving my speech. I am confident that in such a case, I would gain such strength that I could confront the whole world, remove my envious and ill-wishers one by one out of my path, or crush them under my feet, and draw a line for my enemies with an expiration date for them.
God, what glory! What greatness! These folks want to sacrifice their lives for me. They want to give me all the blood flowing in their veins. Oh God, what should I do with all this blood? Do I have a blood transfusion organization here?
I want the women and girls to surpass the men in cheering for me. As if they have longed for my sight for years. With my presence, suddenly tears flow from the corners of their magical eyes onto their beautiful cheeks. Truly, how these clear tears have enhanced their innocent and beautiful faces!
Ah, what a dream! God, which of them is named “Ro’ya” (Dream)? Does it even matter what their names are? What matters is their active presence on the scene.
I want to be overwhelmed by the atmosphere. I want to get carried away. I want not to understand what I am saying. God, don’t take this pleasure away from me. God, may I not wake up to see that everything I have seen was just a short dream. God, make this pleasure eternal for me.
