Mr. Hafez Celebrates 80th Birthday
Literary figure and writer Mr. Hafez celebrates his eightieth birthday, and in his article, he expresses his feelings of neglect and disregard experienced from the homeland and cultural institutions. They have neither provided him with a proper job nor honored him in accordance with his significant contributions to literature, theater, and radio. It is noted that his creative output exceeds hundreds of works, yet he lacks the most basic means of livelihood, such as a stable job or a suitable burial place. Meanwhile, he remains remembered only through the pages of written work, owning nothing of comfort or luxury. He delves into an analysis of the crisis of national memory, observing that the homeland forgets those who worked for its sake, keeps the names of those who wrote only about their rise, while genuine creators are neglected. Mr. Hafez rejects pleas for pity, seeing himself as a witness to his sacrifices, holding fast to the values of writing and dignity. He believes that words outlive human life, expressing hope that God will grant him another opportunity to write. He affirms that a writer's true worth lies in the linguistic legacy they leave behind, not in the support granted by the homeland.
