Make Life Colorful

Pursuing the Creative Dream Without Giving up on Hope

Beschreibung

Make Life Colorful by Omid Vafa challenges Life and Society's bleak, hard-working structure by asking the fundamental question: "How can we live life colorfully?" Following the author's journey through times of war, estrangement, a refugee in a foreign land, and eventually into light, happiness and success, this book reflects life itself. Vision, Hope, Courage, and Paying it Forward are integral pillars of life that play an important part in everyone's lives. In order to make our societies and the future a brighter place, we need to have more empathy, be there for each other, and stop isolating people based on their differences. Guide youth into a stronger future and teach us to think not just the world WITHOUT but more look into the world WITHIN as well. This heartfelt and complex book elaborates on the importance of unity and the people we surround ourselves with.

Autor

Omid Vafa was born in June 1969 in Tehran, Iran. During his childhood, he lived in Afghanistan (1976-1980) where his father was stationed as a diplomat during the last Iranian royal dynasty (Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi). In the later years of his stay in Afghanistan, Omid survived 4 coups d'état, including a Soviet Union invasion before moving back to Iran. He moved back to his home country during a time of chaos. It was the final month of the Pahlavi Empire and Iran was undergoing political shifts due to the Iranian Revolution (1979) and war with Iraq (1980).Throughout his 5 years of return to Iran, Omid experienced the Iran and Iraq war. With the eruption of war and the persecution Baha'is were facing after the Iranian Revolution, he had no other choice but to flee. Omid left his family behind before turning 16 in hopes of a brighter future. He prevailed on another perilous journey during his time as a refugee in Pakistan for over 2 years (1985-1988) before getting the opportunity to start a new life in Canada. He lived there for just over a decade without having to worry about his physical safety. Following his life in Canada, U.S., Switzerland, Australia, and the UK, Omid moved to Japan (2005) and began immediately searching for ways to contribute his knowledge and experience to the community.Omid is a philanthropist, entrepreneur, and public speaker, giving talks on a variety of topics on entrepreneurship, fashion, and education to youth and various interest groups/associations, athletes, and corporations.https://www.linkedin.com/in/senavafa/https://www.japantimes.co.jp/tag/sena-vafa
