Success

I finally was able to convince my parents this morning after five days of negotiations that I and Amir shouldn't come home because of what is happening in the Middle East right now. It was hard. And I don't blame them. When panic penetrates mind and body it is really hard to get the message through. It required a lot of love and patience. They are terrified by the news they recieve every day on TV. I hope the whole thing won't last very long. I asked my father to pray for us (he is not a Baha'i, nor is my mom) and he was so cute saying he doesn't know any Baha'i prayers. He was happy when I said that the Muslim one he knows in Arabic would do:) Phew!!!!
