Freedom is good. Be free.

الحرية أمر جيد. أن يكون حرا

自由是好的。是免费的。

Vrijheid is goed. Vrij zijn.

La liberté est une bonne chose. Être libre.

La libertà è il bene. Essere libero.

자유가 좋다. 자유 인이되게합니다.

La libertad es buena. Ser libre.

این روز ها همه در تب و تاب وقایعی هستند که مخالف یا موافق هر شخص و گروهی را درگیر و گاه متاثر می کند. در بلاگ کاریز دوست خوبمان شعری جالب را نوشته که دوست داشتم آن را اینجا بگذارم:

این حس من است درباره‌ی حکایت دردناک این روزها. کاره‌ای نیستم تا کاری کنم. کاری را کردم که از دستم برمی‌آمد.

برای  مردمم و وطنم که ابرهای نامهربانی، آسمان صاف و آبی آن را  اندکی پوشانده است

به پاس حرمت هم، کینه را غلاف کنیم

برادریم مبادا که اختلاف کنیم

 شما که دعوی ایمان و عاشقی دارید

برای زیستنی پاک ائتلاف کنیم

 شکسته‌ایم حریم صفا و رأفت را

به جرم خویش کنون باید اعتراف کنیم

 چنان بگیر که فریاد و خشم حق شماست

ولی به خاطر خلق از حق انصراف کنیم

 برادرانه به نیروی نرم صبر و صلاة

به زیر نام خداوند، اعتکاف کنیم

 میان بارش باران بینهم رحماء

خوشا اگر دل خود را زلال و صاف کنیم

 مبادمان فراموش قصه‌ی سیمرغ

پرنده‌های وطن رو به سوی قاف کنیم

 تمام ترس من این است، فتنه چیره شود

و بین غائله‌ها گم سر کلاف کنیم

 من از شما همه کوچک‌ترم، ببخشایید

سزا نبود سخن را چنین گزاف کنیم

 ***

 خدا درون دل ماست؛ خانه پس ز چه‌روست؟

ـ بهانه‌ای که به جزخویش را طواف کنیم!

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer and businessman. The seventh child of the Jackson family, he made his début to the professional music scene at the age of 11 as a member of The Jackson 5 in 1969, and began a solo career in 1971 while still a member of the group. Referred to as the "King of Pop"^[2] in subsequent years, his 1982 album Thriller is the world's best-selling record of all time^[3] and four other solo studio albums are also among the world's best-selling records: Off the Wall (1979), Bad (1987), Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995).

In the early 1980s, he became a dominant figure in popular music and the first African-American entertainer to amass a strong crossover following on MTV. The popularity of his music videos airing on MTV, such as "Beat It", "Billie Jean" and Thriller — widely credited with transforming the music video from a promotional tool into an art form — helped bring the relatively new channel to fame. Videos such as "Black or White" and "Scream" made Jackson an enduring staple on MTV in the 1990s. With stage performances and music videos, Jackson popularized a number of physically complicated dance techniques, such as the robot and the moonwalk. His distinctive musical sound and vocal style influenced many hip hop, pop and contemporary R&B artists. While Jackson was a member of Generation Jones ^[4][5], he had an impact on multiple generations.

Jackson donated and raised millions of dollars for beneficial causes through his foundation, charity singles and support of 39 charities. Other aspects of his personal life, including his changing appearance and behavior, generated significant controversy, damaging his public image. Though he was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993, the criminal investigation was closed due to lack of evidence and Jackson was not charged. The singer had experienced health concerns since the early 1990s and conflicting reports regarding the state of his finances since the late 1990s. Jackson married twice and fathered three children, all of which caused further controversy. In 2005, Jackson was tried and acquitted of further sexual abuse allegations and several other charges.

One of the few artists to have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, his other achievements include multiple Guinness World Records — including one for "Most Successful Entertainer of All Time"—13 Grammy Awards, 13 number one singles in his solo career — more than any other male artist in the Hot 100 era and the sale of 750 million records worldwide.^[6] Jackson's highly publicized personal life, coupled with his successful career, made him a part of popular culture for almost four decades. Jackson died on June 25, 2009, aged 50.^[7] The specific cause of death is yet to be determined.^[2] Before his death, Jackson had announced a 50 date sell-out This Is It comeback tour, in London, England.^[8].
