Wave

I assume you have heard of wave before. Wave, right! The thing that goes up and down to carry something around. This phenomenon is the root cause of everything that happens in this world. Waves live in different kinds like light and sound. They also have different characteristics such as visibility, length, frequency and so on.

Waves impact every one of us every day. Maybe you do not care if seismic waves can reshape the planet Earth surface or cause earthquakes in deep ocean, but I bet you, you do care that waves can make you happy, sad, excited, and sometimes desperate. Believe me; they can change your climate instantly. Am I dreaming?! Not really. Waves are the most important means of communication in this world, and maybe I should have said the only one (Sorry, I cannot confirm this for other worlds, but I suppose there would be some other sort of waves). You’ve probably heard someone laughing or crying, or seen a fantastic scenery which amazed you. You can see where I am going with this, right? My point is our life without waves is like a black screen. The unfortunate is you would not even know this is a black screen, just a complete non-sense life.

I think we are now clear about the role of this THING in our life. I said waves are the cause for everything in this world, but I must admit that they are not responsible. We are! We create those creatures to make our life better or more miserable. A man who screams the war order to kill thousands or a man who announces a campaign for saving lives in African villages they both use waves to accomplish something.

I am not sure if you have ever noticed a special kind of wave which is totally different from other types in nature, but with the same characteristics and much stronger power and impact. I call this type “People Wave”. Looking briefly at the world history, we realize the fact that whenever human life has changed, positively or negatively, it was the impact of a people wave; people who decided to improve or destroy their lives. Now, wherever there is a need for change, people should start the wave to make the change happen.

Two essentials of the people wave, like all other types of wave, are having more than one particle (we are really particles in this world by the way!) involving in the wave movement and steadiness of the movement. Consider a water drop who wants to create a tsunami. It is going to vapor and the big ocean full of drops does not even care a bit. They just sit motionless and emotionless and say ”what a pity! He was a nice dude. Oh, who was that by the way?!” Nice try. You just killed yourself for nothing, who cares? Who cares if you wanted to show them they are drops but have the power to be a tsunami if they work together.

I’ve seen lots of people trying to change the world. Some of them had the power to reach their goals to some extent. For those who failed, or has not started yet, I want to give a suggestion: do not fly too high because the body that packed your parachute might have not flown before. Start slowly and try to develop your idea to reach the point that you have powerful support. I respect the fact that they want to change things that human has been suffering, but they should know that one hand cannot clap!

I deeply believe in the word of holy Qur’an that says nothing changes unless the people want to.

  2. That is true. This is somehow supporting my opinion. Sometimes a drop worth an ocean, but it may not have the power to do something big. So why wasting the drop?! Sometimes loosing things attracts attention and makes people think. But unfortunately that is not the case most of the times.

  3. The wave is improtant not the drop. The flight is important not the bird. If we look at the history non of the great men were appreciated at the time of them. Some of them even were undrestood 1000 years after them. Look at Rumi, Look at Ferdosi, Look at Mosadegh,.....
