Oiman Chan asked Kamand Kojouri:

Dear Miss Kojouri, I am the one who should say thank you for taking time to answer me . Two days ago they just celebrated 70th anniversary of absolute oppression. But as Howard Zinn said, "There's no flag large enough to cover the shame if killing innocent people!" I am happy to know that your sister is keeping you informed. As a Chinese classical poet myself, I want to know if you too believe time has chosen us?

Kamand Kojouri That's a great question. Yes, perhaps time has chosen us. But I like to believe that we have also chosen to be born at this particular time, because we have much to learn from our circumstances.... The conditions in which we find ourselves inspire us to grow, change, create, and destroy. And we have chosen this particular time, these particular conditions, as much as they have chosen us.
I really appreciate your kind words, Oiman. Thank you again.
With my warm regards,

Kamand
