My 36th Post: 14th August 1947

65 years back, on 14th August 1947, an infant stepped into this world....it was separated from its mother by the people saying that the mother wouldn't survive longer if she kept it in.....since then it parted its ways from the mother and never turned back.....that child grew up, providing shelter to many and giving them a reason to live....today that child turns 65, today Pakistan gets a year older....
Pakistan, a nation separated from Hindustan after the sacrifices of many great leaders and followers....it was always seen as a nation of pride and honor by its creator, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who died the night Pakistan was crowned its name.....the infant separated from its mother and then in the same night, lost its soul bearer.....people saw a hope for it to survive easily but the spell caster left the people dreaming....it again needed a leader for its nourishment but till this day, none have proven to be in Jinnah's seat....
I have read many histories defining the birth of this nation....each and every nation talks differently....all stand in the favour of their nation's hero and tell about other's mischeieves.....but  well that was history and no matter what it was, it is not possible to live in it again....all that matters is that things have changed and the future needs a proper base in order to stand firm....

Though I am a citizen of this country, I would still accept the truth that it is not what it was supposed to be.....there is nothing really worth living for here....I mean alright it has our roots and everything and still there are historic places and some good qualities but they aren't enough to keep on living....for a person to live a successful life, the basic need is of honesty and a hardworking environment and these things are really tough to locate these days....rarely someone is honest in their work or their relations.....nothing goes on properly....everything is a mess....there is a limit to corruption but here, even the sky ain't the limit....people are getting rich day by day but how, that is the main question....how come a normal man who is not even capable to earn for himself, holds enough balance to buy a car worth some lacs and live in a lavishly furnished house in one of the top most societies of his area? is that even possible without having any business background or bagging some lottery? well my brain says no cause I have seen people working hard....they earn but mostly they earn respect and their bank accounts and all are just averagely filled.....
The jump in corruption in the recent decade, have led a rise to theft, kidnappings and crimes beyond the ideology of man.....prices have rose, people are starving....when people turn into animals, they start doing what is wrong in order to fill the stomach of the one's they love....they don't care about killing a person just for few thousands....
This wasn't how Quaid saw Pakistan to be...this wasn't what he fought for....there is nothing which would have pleased him if he were here....this isn't the Pakistan we deserve....we deserve a better nation, a better living....this isn't how things should turn.....we surely got a win over many who went against us but even 65 years later, I can't proudly say that we are independent....this isn't independence if we are still controlled by the same rulers just under a different name....
Its sad to see something rust like this specially when that something is yours to cherish.....I hope and pray to Allah that we stand back on our feet with the aim of a new and a better nation for us and our later generations...a day would surely come when this nation's flay would rise in every country in respect....a day when each and everyone in this world would speak good of this nation....a day when each Pakistani would be proud of his nationality....That day I would proudly say that we are independent....


PAKISTAN ZINDABAD (long live Pakistan)
