My 131st Post: Am I Forgotten?

Am I forgotten? Ever wondered if people remember you even when you don’t talk anymore. I mean the person whom you used to be a best bud of and now you guys don’t talk, do you think they would have you in their mind still. Or someone whom you thought was important for you but then things didn’t work out and the chapter got shut away for the spiders to nest in. Ever wondered the way you think about them, the way you recall their precious memories, their names and their existence, would they be doing the same time after time.
I have met a lot of people in my age and with most of them, I don’t have any contact at all. Some were just random folks but then there also were those whom I wanted to be a part of my each and every memory. Destiny didn’t have their pictures in my timeline but still I have them in my head. Like the friends I had made in my junior years. Some of them are still in contact but then again majority are like the leaves of fall which flew away from me.
I still remember the names of each and every girl I had a crush upon or whom I fell in love with. Some of them know the fact that I was drooling upon them but specially the girl whose name the cupid struck me with knows it well because she is the only one till the date whom I had enough courage to propose. Well I do wonder if she even remembers me and recalls my memories or thoughts at times. She did had made it clear that I am not going to be a part of her memories by blocking me from every way possible but still, I just wonder if she remembers me.
Then there were random others whom I thought would remain my friends but it didn’t happen. Like a great friend of mine from the school days whom I used to hang out with. She was a nice person and best of all, she helped me out in my love thingy but then something went wrong and it ended. Or like my recent thought about a friend whom I had a misunderstanding with and now she remains at a distance though I did clear it all and our chat ended with my words that I would wait for her reply when she would be willing to talk no matter how high the pile of the years get. Now I wonder it has been months since we talked, does she even remember me. There are a lot of people like her whom I drifted apart from and it has been long since we talked but I don’t think they remember me because alright a girl might have some issues but what about a guy? What about my buddies from the school days whom I haven’t heard from in years. I really don’t even know if they are alive. Well that is life.

I do wonder and I believe everyone does because one can not just kill a memory out of the system. We are not machines whose RAM can be erased or something, we are humans with hearts. If we spend time with even a cat at our door, we remember it. It is mostly our ego and the awkwardness of time which binds us at distance. Well the destiny chose this for us. Some people stay and others just drift away. I would like some of them back but I don’t think anyone would want the entire fleet at their steps again because they were gone and when they left, it might have been a good thing to happen in life. Still I believe that no soul on Earth is forgotten just ignored due to our human nature. They left due to some reason but still they remain a part of our memories.

My 53rd Post: A Sigh for Peace

There are only two kinds of people on this planet; those who are good and those who are bad...there isn't really much difference in between rest....people, from ages, try to distinguish others upon their cast, color, breed or their religion...they never stand there to realize that the ones they are trying to separate, breathe the same way they do...walk their style and grow like they do...the only difference at times is their tongue or their style, nothing else....if A has the same body function as B, then how is it possible to select a unique one and mark it the alpha letter....it ain't...
Throughout history, there have been wars upon the reasons of religion, cast or even the color....why? were they really necessary? some people would say they were but leaving the fact that some tribe or nation was defending themselves, then how can a war be useful....the greed of power trolls the mankind and makes it believe that the most powerful person is the one who conquers everyone else....it never tells that the real power is in unity and also that a person can only remain powerful till there is no one strong enough to oppose him....what happens the day when someone takes down the most powerful man? that someone is known as the most powerful man around and then someone else tries to take his place and the cycle continues....in all that, the former rulers who were dragged down from their positions are forgotten and they die a miserable death or maybe just maybe they may be remembered for few more years....struggling one's whole life just for that is simply useless....
The most powerful man or the one who is deserving to be upon that seat is the one who does something for the mankind not only for himself....the one who serves his entire life in order to support someone whom he never really knew...he is the one who would be remembered beyond the times of mankind and he is the one who would be respected when remembered....
Starting a war in order to spread peace is just like writing on large sheets of paper a note to save trees....this all seems senseless....peace is a tough thing to bring in this frustrated world...no one here has enough time to stop and listen or to read what someone has to say....if I talk about myself, then I am not that peaceful either but still am trying to put in my efforts to do something....it is really tough but what's wrong in trying....all the above words may seem boring to many but if you view them with a clear thought, then all this writing means  a lot....
If there is peace through out this planet, everything would sooth down and things would seem better...life would flourish again and it would shape out beautifully....it is the base for a jolly life and without peace all our education and hard work would go in vain because a day would soon arrive when there would be nothing to maintain and no one to stand along with...
Differences can be solved and if not, then they can be ignored...no need of fighting over something which has no answer....no need to prove someone wrong by forcing them to change their view, just try to convince them and if that doesn't works, then it is not in our power....there is no need of portraying anger, just let others live and if you have a complaint that no one let you live, then try to widen your thoughts and smile to a new beginning....
Peace to All the readers and their families and everyone, everyone knows...

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)
