One day , Come to the threshold of this dark mind; Your light shadow will reach.
The surroundings are very dark. I can not get rid of the vacuum I live with the body of light. I can not see the appearance of smoky bags. Live like this permanently ….
Nevertheless, darkness reaches the threshold of the mind, Someone's foot suddenly stops.
One day , Come to the threshold of this dark mind; Your light shadow will reach.
This hope is far from the mind; The mind wants to see the end,
That one day I will see you up close. Strategic Planning Consultant

A few years ago, the scenes spread across international satellite TV screens were the image of Somali children most commonly circulated with skeletons and very emaciated bodies due to poverty and deprivation of the most basic human needs, which helped to increase the number of deaths daily from these innocent children, despite the efforts and endeavors made to improve and protect this childhood except The accelerating events here and there did not succeed in the official institutions and humanitarian bodies in achieving their lofty goals to protect the rights of the child.. which worsened during the so-called “Arab Spring” in some countries, due to its artificial storms that also destroyed the fertile environment for the sound and normal social upbringing of children “Generations” due to instability, waves of political violence and crises of civil wars on the one hand, and the weakness of following up on the design and implementation of comprehensive development plans to build the person and the homeland on the other hand...!

Ali Jafaroglu
(story) The tree of Life
One tree has grown in a hot and dry area. This tree has climbed much, high. There were so many leaves that there was a shadow all around. Every time the sun warmed him, he was disappointed, because no one caressed him, did not care for him. The tree, from loneliness, considered it useless that it grew here. I dreamed that it would be better to be a small shrub, but to have tall trees nearby. For birds to sit on its branches, for people to rest in its shade. The tree shed bitter tears. We cried so much that a transparent puddle formed around. Days and months pass, the seasons replace each other. The frost and cold of winter freeze the puddle, the spring rain fills it, it trembles from the autumn wind, evaporates from the hot summer. Everything goes on as usual, no change has taken place. The tree, bored from loneliness, was disappointed, heart ached from sadness. Hearing some rustle or noise, the tree, startled, raised its head higher, the heart beats with excitement, but not seeing anyone, it is disappointed. One person was walking through the arid area. My heart was breaking from the suffocating heat. From thirst, as on the ground, cracks formed in his lips, his legs were dumbfounded from fatigue. The man leaned against the ground. With a heavy gaze, he looked into the distance, into endless space. Looking at the sky, I saw the galaxy. As if from the ancient beliefs of the Egyptians, the remaining, imprinted in the sky, the heavenly cow was reflected high. How much I slept, I did not remember. The sun has risen. He saw a dark spot in the distance. He, gathering all his strength, crawled in that direction. After hard torment, he reached the circumference of the tree. The shade of the tree brought coolness to him. He, lying down, drank a lot of water from a puddle and from powerlessness was for a long time without memory. The tree was a little overjoyed at the man. It stretched its branches to a puddle, watered the face of a man with its leaves. Then, trembling like a light breeze, he gave the man breath. The tree, the man's watchman, did not sleep all night. With dawn, the darkness went far away. Everything was covered with a milky color. The man opened his eyes. Gradually he got to his feet. He opened his arms and breathed in fresh air. After yawning a little, he raised his head up, examined the tree with his gaze. What I saw was, as in a dream, I understood everything essential. The sadness instantly passed, a feeling of inspiration came. The tree greeted the man with a loud voice:

tree; –Welcome, my dear! Good morning!" The man received the greeting of the
–Good morning, my favorite tree of life! -he answered with a smile. From these words, the soul of the tree was filled with tenderness. Indeed, how beautiful it is to be called a tree of life ?!

A Plane tree and a plank
pleased with its trunk. After a momentary silence it turned to the plane tree. “Hey, plane tree, all who see you praise your beauty, grandiose and your shadow. If only I were you! ” said the plank. The plane tree was lost in thoughts, the words of the wood dispersed its thoughts. It looked in the direction from where the voice was heard, looked at the wooden frame and asked. “Why do you ask, plank? I wonder why do you say so, aren’t you pleased with your case? ”
(story)
They cut the wild nut tree in the forest. After they cut off the branches of it, they shaved its trunk on planing machine. They made doors and windows from the pieces of plank. The workers loaded the wooden materials to the lorry and brought to a nice house. After some time the doors and windows of the building were made, and decorated glasses were cut according to the size of the window frames. When the frames were painted with red paint they began to glitter under the beams of the sun. That house was seen very nice! The people passing by stopped at the house and enjoyed from watching at the nice building. A plank which had once been a wild nut tree in the forest and then had turned to pieces of wood watched the high plane tree the top of which could reach up sky. The plank looked at the leaves of theplane tree enviously and was The plank stared the plane tree sorrowfully. It was so sorrowful, that the plane tree began to calm it.
“Why don’t you speak? Tell me please what has happened to you?” “Once I was also a high tree, my top could touch the clouds. I was charm of the forest. The nightingales settled on my branches, the children played in my shadow, the people laughed near me. What a pity, I can’t live those days anymore. Now there is no sign of my old charm. I have turned to an ordinary plank.” When nut tree finished its talk it sighed deeply. The plane tree shook its head. “Hey, plank! Are you grieving for these? I was surprised what has happened to you Don’t grieve! Do you think all the trees will remain where they are? Even the Mother nature also changes its appearance. The seasons of the years replace each other, the nature is lost in

winter dream, then it awakens in spring, all around are covered with flowers. All around is green. But in autumn the cold winds blow and the yellow leaves fall on the ground. Have you forgotten all of these?” “No, I haven’t forgotten, “plank said. The plane tree continued. “You know that the human beings don’t live forever. They also pass away when it is time.The old people die and the babies come to life. The people whom I had seen have been old, and the children have been adults, “plane tree said and pointed to the young trees and said.
“These young trees had been planted recently. They are fed with water, air, sun beams, and grow with the care of the people. The day will come and these young trees also will be high as me, they will be the charm of the forest and will present joy to the people. Some of them won’t grow, they will become dry. That is why I advise you not to feel sorry for your present case, my dear!” “Who will need me? Nobody is in need of me anymore. Nobody will love me, nobody will sleek my leaves with their looks, “the plank said hopelessly. The plane tree watched the plank and
said.
“I think you must be delighted that you give a charm to the house. Once you were a charm in the forest but now you are the charm of the house. Look, the people watch you! They are admired at you!The people love you. That is why they painted you. But still I don’t know how my end will be. Maybe they will cut me and use as firewood, maybe I shall become dry and mix with the soil.” After hearing the words of the plane tree the nut tree became calm and began to watch around with a smile.

True knowledge
Learning from books is only knowledge that will pave the way by adding resources along the way.The main lesson is the lessons learned from nature, environment, daily life and society. Acquired education is the main way to gain real knowledge.
The depth of knowledge is infinite. The name of remembering something for a long time is not knowledge.The chemistry of deep perception is knowledge that shows the world a new path.
Knowledge is light. It will just scatter the ray. And will bind one ray after another. The true knowledge is the feeling that will take you to the depths of that ray of light and bring you out of it.
