Thanks for your detailed and interesting comments Aboud. As you noticed yourself, the word "dream" here didn't mean "roya va khiyal pardazi" It is a metaphor for a way of life and a sense of hope that often exists in the avarage American person.
Thanks to very confusing and contradictory teaching from our society leaders, it seems that our people have generally lost such healty hopes.  Everybody is thinking about very simple things (eating kabbob, drinking, and dancing) when you ask them about having fun. I have never heared of a rich Iranian man spending his time travelling the word and seeing various places. Instead, they go and buy a huge house that they can't even clean! |
