Why to climb mount Damavand in Iran?
Simply because it’s a unique adventure. It’s a way to escape your daily routines. It’s a way to feel younger and more motivated. Scriptures say don’t become old because the old I ape. How to stop the time and not becoming old? By trying new things in life such as visiting another country and face some new challenges. Climbing Damavand in Iran is a good one.
Just sitting the three and watching days pass by is kind of sleeping. It’s the moment days catch you and after some few days like that you are old. Climb Damavand, take the adventure to stay young. The expression of old should not be used for living creatures. Anybody who moves ahead, pulls him or her forward, celebrates the small stuff, is still young.
Climbing Damavand is doing something new in life. This is life. Stand up again fall after fall. Run ahead again even if you have crashed into a wall. Its painful. I know it. I lost 43 years in my life. I chose a trail of getting my PhD, spent 25 years on it but at the end of the story, there is no demand for my field. In least in my country, Iran. Days after days are going and nothing happens in my life. It’s time to forget the trap of PhD and the temptation of being a university lecturer and take a new path. It’s time to get out of the matrix. Its Damavand time. It’s time to find a new peak, a new challenge to avoid getting old.
