I AM HUMBLED

I am humbled by the beauty of this universe.
Humbled by others’ kindness.
Humbled by life.
I drop down to my knees and give thanks.”

FREEDOM

“How freeing of a thought:
instead of worrying about leaving a legacy,
to leave no trace of one’s existence.
How liberating indeed!”

Kamand Kojouri

IRRATIONAL NUMBER

“I love you.
I love you a thousand times.
I love you an irrational number.
And I will continue to love you
long after all this has died
and been reborn
and we are nothing more
than a pair of reincarnated eyes.”

Kamand Kojouri

“Let us give thanks
for our shadows—
they exist in the first place
because of the presence of light.”
