Sometimes, I browse the web pages and issues lists for big open-source projects. I think to myself that I really want to get involved in them. It’s not too hard for me. Besides, there are a lot of skilled programmers there and I can learn a lot from them.
But then I think why don’t I do so? I have a normal job and it doesn’t take a big portion of my time to deliver its tasks. So, what do I do in my spare time that I can’t work on those projects? The sad fact is that all of my time is being wasted on migration affairs. And a sadder fact is that if I don’t spend my time in this way and stay in Iran, there’s a high possibility that I lose any future chance to meet and work with those people.
It’s very sad. I never thought those imaginary borders between the lands can be this much bold. The people inside want to imprison you and send you to military, the people outside are afraid you ruin their lands with your bombs. Ridiculous. :)) I keep thinking am I just a poor pawn in the politicians’ chess game? At least I hope to reach the last rank and become a rook or something.
