#BakhtiyarHajiyev, Azerbaijani pro-democracy activist, is celebrating his birthday today behind bars. Earlier this year, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison on politically-motivated charges. As if that was not enough, the authorities also confiscated his apartment & bank money.

Writing is an act of rebellion.
Writing is an act of creation.
Writing is an act of salvation.

Writing is an act of emotion.
Writing is an act of confession.
Writing is an act of speculation.
Writing is an act of reflection.
Keep writing.
