Today, after the demonstration in The Hague in support of the people of Iran, Hadi and I separated from the group as we were heading home. On our way back, a woman approached us and suddenly began to cry. She said, “I need to talk to you. I haven’t heard from my family in Iran for several days.” 

Something inside the heart of Iran is blooming that many prayed and hoped for decades: freedom. Yet we are in awe of how quickly the reel is spinning. Despite the regime darkening internet and cell phones, videos are sending the songs of Iranians from inside to the world — a free country is being birthed before our eyes.
