- Like the other sci poster, I too have fond memories of this custom.
- I had just started dating my husband and a family member from
- Germany had come to visit. That evening, the whole family
- sat on the porch and read Haffez for about 4 or 5 hours. I did not
- understand ANY Persian, but I was hooked! I remember the feeling
- I got from the language. It was the most beautiful thing I had
- ever heard.
-
- I still have a great deal of difficulty understanding Haffez, but
- I love listening to the recitations.

- P.S. I had my fortune told also, but noone was able to translate
- it for me:)
