The Synergy Of A Conflicting Mix Of Emotions

Originally published by Me at my Facebook Notes section.

I had never imagined it would ever come down to this. I had never anticipated damage of such magnitude. But it has happened and is now a reality. Whatever I created over grains of sand is now falling apart, all around me.

Life twists and turns, it spills over from one sharp edge or the other and leaps into a new beginning every now and then, in several scattered directions and dimensions.

Frustration runs deep into my heart and soul, agony flows in my veins and the burning desire to change the world resides in my mind. A strange mix of emotions it is, but it is what it is and it is nothing but true.

You ask me why I live, I don’t have an answer. I prefer silence as my answer might scare you. Or it will incite hatred that you will not be able to control.

Tolerance, you do not understand. Patience, you don’t let anyone have. Aggression with haste is what defines You, and its control is what defines Me. I do not know whether success falls in your lap or mine, but I do know that my stand will leave its mark for the better, forever!

No to the President, No to the Media

If there was to be a sequel to the movie Mr. Bean’s Holiday, it would be called President Goes to the USA. While Mr. President had a rendezvous half way across the globe with ex girl friends and beauty pageant winners, those back home wished he hadn’t left Islamabad in the first place. The media got its much alleged freedom, but how has that helped us? If the media is so responsible and its role is so vital, why have things gone as far as they have? WHERE IS THE MEDIA? Where are the anchors and the journalists who wanted to jump at every chance? They have the resources to interview sought after terrorists, but lack the guts to confront those in the government. Mr. President, if you want to be the savior you claim you are, stop playing in the hands of our enemies, bring about change, or it will force itself on you.

America is collapsing under systems and practices of its own. In such turbulent times, when not only the USA but Europe as well, face this man made financial catastrophe – the world is looking towards China with hope and despair! Why are we still allied to the USA? How do we define the terms friend, ally and enemy? (more…)

Who is speaking through Zardari? He has termed the freedom fighters in the Kashmir valley as ‘terrorists’. The U-turns and immature statements made by the PPP government and the President have been depressing and frustrating at the same time. They seem to be adamant to change what we have stood for over the past 60 years. Zardari has also claimed that the USA and Pakistan have an understanding on US attacks inside Pakistani territory. Suspicions are now running deep in the Pakistani society! Frustration is growing by the hour!
