Sleepless Night!!!! XD
After last night incidence, I couldn't fall asleep all night, and was trying to find the answers of the questions that arose in my mind. I was tossing and turning in my bed and was afraid of sleeping. Last night, a guy climbed the wall of our house and came into our home while he was bleeding. We were shocked and panic and didn't know what to do. My father pushed him out while he was begging my father to stay. He repeatedly claimed that a group of hooligans were chasing him and attempted on his life. He, himself, looked like a hooligan, though. He phoned someone to bring a long knife with him. Hopefully, he fled as soon as he realized we called the police.
Even though we called the police twice, they didn't even come to see if we are safe and sound. The questions arising in my mind are "What is the duty of police force here? Aren't they responsible for protecting people's lives?'' It seems like no one cares about people's lives in Iran, because the lives of people aren't a big deal, but the money is.They just receive a huge amount of money from the government and do nothing for people. What would happen, if the guy killed us? I suppose if we were killed no one would even realize about our death or maybe they would realize after our body started to decompose. What would happen, if those wandering in our alley and looking for him saw he was climbing our house's wall and then they thought this is their hostile's house? What would happen, if the group assaulted us after mid-night and killed us all together? Everyone expects police to protect their lives, although Iranians shouldn't have such high expectations for protecting their lives. What a pity! We don't feel safe even in our homes.

Hopefully, there are still a few compassionate, sympathetic and caring doctors in Iran. However Iran loses a lot of skillful, talented, creative and professional individuals every year who are seeking better job opportunities, living conditions, and robust economics. Many brilliant people are running away because of the current situations. And Amene you're one of those talented, brilliant and intelligent ones. I wish you all the best

That's true Sarah. Bur, I should admit that I know a few doctors who really care about their patients. I remember calling them during holidays and they helped. I guess connection is also important. I hope there are still some good people remained in Iran :(

Amene, definitely it's a shame! They are good at receiving a GREAT deal of money and doing nothing for inhabitants. No matter whether or not it's Nowruz holidays. We are in the same situation all year round. Unfortunately, it's not just about police force, doctors also don't take the responsibility of their patients' lives. It seems like they don't care about their patients' lives at all. Doctors in Iran use their patients as guinea pigs. XD

We had a similar experience! The thief was stealing car which was parked in front of our window! My father noticed him when he was in the car and trying to open the locks around the steering wheel. We called police two times, but they didn't show up at all! It was not during holidays. It was a calm and warm summer night. I understand your feeling. That's a shame!
