Dreams and Visions



Dreams and Visions

When i was little, i used to dream to "save the world". I dreamed of working together for a cause, with people side by side from all the nations, in harmony love and selfless service.

Some years passed and i grew up some more and the balloon of hope had popped. because of words that i didnt even know, Naivety, Utopia. I discovered harshness in the world, egoism, violence, jealousy, I saw hate and as a youth felt powerless, small and worst of all, a cold feeling of indifference shattered my heart and my vision of the world.

After some other years, i found the faith becoming bahai two years ago, and from one moment to the other i realized that the distant dream i once had is now reality, it became true. I had now two choices, either to remain powerless, small and indifferent to the world, or to strive with heart and soul to serve humanity and help advance the human civilization.

How can i describe how proud i am of the youth, when you stand up to serve, when you find your area of expertise, when you use your talents to make this place a better world through educating the future generations, guiding your fellow classmates and friends with impeccable example and for the selfless service you are providing to the world. I would like ton encourage you not to miss this beautiful opportunity of having the blessing of experiencing the meaning of selfless service.

Alláhu abhá

Haiti for change.
This song was written and composed by two Bahai youth in Canada,
who did not stop in their feeling of powerlessness
but rather concentrated their creativity and talents for a great cause.


This song was written by JC and Karim in response to recent events in Haiti.

What do Baha'is believe?

Bahá'ís believe that there is one God, that all humanity is one family, and that there is a fundamental unity underlying religion. They recognize that the coming of Bahá'u'lláh has opened the age for the establishment of world peace, when, as anticipated in the sacred scriptures of the past, all humanity will achieve its spiritual and social maturity, and live as one united family in a just, global society.
