Saturday, April 5, 2008. ANSWER a poem by Viken L. Attarian (April 5, 2008). My grandfather was 12 years old,. When he walked the road to hell,. On the way,. He buried his younger brother in the desert. Whose shorts he kept until he died. To remember him by. He spoke of this journey to hell,. They were not all killers" he said,. Some were honourable, and helped us". He then went to bed for the last time. In 2004, I met a Holy Man. He is very wise. As if he were a thousand years old. The answer was serene:.

Connecting Ideas: May 2007
http://connectingideas.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
May 26, 2007. Planned, partly planned and unplanned adventures. The bed at the hotel is one of the best I have ever slept in. It is strange, but I have not had any dreams yet in Armenia. Your brain never gets a rest here to have a dream. Yesterday I called the people I wanted to meet to let them know. My list is very short. Only the most essential ones. The first one is in the lobby of the hotel waiting for me. He is RK. And no, in case you were wondering, he is not. Now, more than ever, Armenia needs a.

http://connectingideas.blogspot.com/2011/08/what-we-have-wrought.html
August 12, 2011. Day 2: What We Have Wrought. It is morning. Before I get up and go, I have to see an important man. He is Ter Mesrop. I had met him also 4 years ago in Yerevan. And this year in Montreal. I had been initially introduced to him by one of the "Fellowship of ideas", the most amazing David Y. He had made a remarkable impression on me at the opening of the physics lab of the Phys-Math School for Gifted Children in Yerevan. I had been missing him for months. Kind of like Tumo. Except that ...

Connecting Ideas: Day 1: Fast Forward
http://connectingideas.blogspot.com/2011/08/fast-forward.html
August 11, 2011. Day 1: Fast Forward. I have left things unfinished last time. When I came back from Armenia, the endless urge to write and create subsided quickly. Like coming off from a drug-induced high. Not that I'd know. I have mostly half-written unedited chapters from last time. Along with a pile of notes. I shall finish them of course. I am hoping that soon. My writing is unfinished. Just like me. We might have passed the concept stage, but we are definitely still in beta testing. The problem is ...

http://connectingideas.blogspot.com/2011/08/day-3-discovering-personal-and.html
August 13, 2011. Day 3: Discovering Personal and Ancestral Connections. After I got to my room, I managed to connect with Skype back home. I miss my family a lot. I share with them the exciting details. I tell them to read my blog, as I will likely publish the first installment soon. I also tell them to connect online for the opening ceremonies. I fall asleep from sheer exhaustion around 4:30 am I wake up at six. And I got more depressed. Like experiencing sunset and sundown at the Mandala temple of Boro...

http://two-poems-for-tibet.blogspot.com/2008/04/balance-poem-by-manuel-keusseyan.html
Saturday, April 5, 2008. SCALES a poem by Manuel Keusseyan (December 26, 1988). An unarmed monk,. His worthful honour held high,. His faith unwavering,. Faces the barrels of the gun. From under the debris. Of the tremorous earthquake,. A pale young boy,. Throws off the dust and bloody cinders,. Then spirits out: "Armenia! Walking on towards a newer life. Mother Djomolungma, Ararat the Free. Balances of God, and beneath His gaze. Points most sacred and equally mighty. Supporting on their shoulders. The se...
