Tehran <-> Washington, DC 1970-1973 teen girl blog
Back in 1970, Hilary and Kathy were 14 years old and best friends in Washington, DC. Then Kathy moved to Tehran. They wrote to each other pretty often--and kept the letters--for your pleasure as a proto-blog from the 70s. The letters start here.

All Adam's race are members of one frame:

Since all, at first, from the same essence came.

When by hard fortune one limb is oppressed,

the other members lose their wonted rest.

If thou feel'st not for others' misery,

a son of Adam is no name for thee.

***

Bani Adam a'azaye yek-digarand;

Ke dar Afarinesh ze yek goharand.

Cho oz'oe ba dard a'warad ruzgaar,

digar oz'oe ha ra namand qarar.

Tu kaz mehna'te digaran beghami,

nashayad nehand naamat Adami.

Sa'adi, "Golestan"
