Tough times

My country is facing toughest of the times in her history. The people of Pakistan are fighting a war - a war of ideas. Innocent lives are being taken everyday in the name of a religious idea which is not followed by the people of Pakistan. The moderate, peace loving nation is facing attacks on their normal way of living. The world needs to support, recognize the efforts, every Pakistani is making at individual and national level.

3 Material Things

I read this on box of tea bags. I don't remember the brand or kind of tea now. It was years ago, maybe 5 or 6 years.

3 material things essential to life: Pure air, water & earth

3 immaterial things essential to life: Admiration, hope & love

Admiration: The power of discerning & taking delight in what is beautiful in visible form & lovely in human character; and necessarily striving to produce what is beautiful in form and to become what is lovely in character.

Hope: The recognition, by true foresight, of better things to be reached hereafter, whether by ourselves or others, necessarily issuing in the straightforward and undisappointable effort advance, according to our proper power, the gaining of them.

Love: Both of family and friends, making life worth to live.

I am back

After more than a year and a half, I am back!!!

It's not that I haven't written anything in this long period of absence. I have. On other venues. Many times, on just random pieces of paper, which I recycled at the end of the week or whenever I moved (I've moved work station 3 times).

But I am going to stick to writing on this blog now.
