A Race for Justice

a while back i was going through my facebook feed and there someone posted from the page 'in memory of shahzeb' that why have justice becaome a race? doesn't justice for one means justice for all?

and it got me thinking, why is justice a race in my country? the answer is very simple that having justice will become a race when there will be very limited amount of it, when there is will be only one person to look upto for getting justice, it is like you are fighting for something rare.

like a real race, or a treasure hunt, the one who finds the treasure first or reaches the finishing line wins. there it is justice, so very important, so very desirable, so very much wanted and there it is shazeb who got shot is getting it, but them there 103 people from twin blasts in quetta not...


[note: for some weird reason this post got deleted, and i have no idea how? thus the break from this blog! i'll try to be more regular now!]

some thoughts

Jamshed Dasti sent to prison in fake degree case! he deserves to be punished for his lies, but this is not about him going to jail, this is about him riding a donkey cart for filing of his nomination papers - - - well yes he did that! and i saw some people making fun of him on twitter! that such a clown can't be chosen as a lawmaker! but in opinion, he was truely representating his people!

most of the Pakistanis in the rural areas still ride a donkey cart, and some do that in cities too, so where common man rides in it, why a representative of people can't? i don't think it was funny, I think that it was highly appropriate display of togetherness with people!!!!

and then today in the news, the PTI jalsa they forgot to turn off the music during the maghrib prayers!!!! gimme a break! DAWN news what is ur agenda? want to create a havoc in country??? get people killed? please refrain from such news!!!!

and the last one, AKchisti on twitter posted that Qauid-e-Azam ate ham sanwiches and drank scotch - - - as far as my knowledge goes it is true! and there go people of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, abusing the author about his ideas about Pakistan and the angelicised quaid! c'mon give this man a break! he is just speaking the truth - nothing but the truth! try to learn to accept it that we are a nation that believe in Ayub Khan's or Zia-ul-Haq's Quaid - not the real one!

that is a sad thing!

Give up or not??!?!?!?

well, i always knew i was a terrible writer, i always had difficulty in explaining myself [but i secretly thought i was the best! - well that's a secret] so what happened to make me realize that i m terrible writer?

i hv to take this research based course in college, and find out something 'new' [finding new things is another problem] so well, i did this experiment [sort of] and blah blah blah - everything that is required to find out something 'new' - lo and behold! it is time to write a report

:D - for the first time i actually wrote a report on time and email it to my supervisor and co-supervisor!

my supervisor is pissed off at me for the reason that i didn't go for the meetings with my co-supervisor!!!! [well i didn't know why i should bother going when i was doing things the way i thought them i should do, i will write the report and email the results - fair enough for me]

so he wont be looking at my report at all [well may be he did, i don't know - no one told me about it!] and my co supervisor found 1001 reasons not to like it and she rejected it!!!

fair enough! no problem, i'll write it again, from her point of view [which i also, secretly thought was wrong! i think a lot, ought to stop doing that!]

so i wrote it again! and what now?

she rejected it again. *sigh!*

now what? i don't feel like writing it again! i so feel like giving up! i have done things that i can't explain to her, i have written things that i did, but then thought of them unimportant to mention! God! i decided i'll never write a book, because i knew i had problems beginning and ending things, why should i go through doing this again and again and then again????

so i have decided to give up!!!!

and go back home - this report will cause me my degree, but is the stress worth it?

a letter to my teacher

[this post was written to a teacher, whose teaching style went beyond the entire class, i did not post it then but found it today in the drafts]

believe me i love studying, i love learning things, but now i m in masters, not 7th. don't expect me to rote learn the definitions.

when i make a mistake give me a chance to correct it, because i am a good student. listen to me, because i exist in your class, even if by ill luck!

believe that girls can think logically, and if you accept this fact and appreciate me, it will make you great in everybody's eyes.

treat us as grown up, experienced individuals, not kids, who need to give test to prove to you that you are teaching fine.

put down your rules and expectations for us, we will try to live up to them.

respect our individuality!

respect our intellect!

respect our ideas! don't distribute them to the world.

appreciate what is good, openly! nobody understands your metaphors

believe that we can think and do! don't teach us just anything... even if nobody dares to tell you but you are not liked by anyone as a teacher.

we are people open to talk and discussions, but be open to our ideas, we will try and accept yours.

try to learn to share - it is a good thing!

try to inspire us! try to be our teacher

A thing for everyone!!!!

the biggest question i have ever asked myself and everyone else i know, is why to be? there was a time [well there are still the times, when i don't want to be] when i thought that being was such a waste of time!!!! so i tried to find ways in which not to be, only to find out that the only thing is 'to be' - confusing, huh???

not much!

you can't decide to be or not to be on your own! because you are! now the question is why you are the way you are! what is the purpose? the reason behind being?

if you find the answer to this, you will be satisfied and say, 'sometimes being is good'

i have still not found out why i m? but i have stopped question my being, i just am, although i have been many things in my life, i enjoyed being all of those, but i have not found out one thing that i'll like to be for rest of my life! so the question is not to find the way to unexist - to stop being, the problem is to find out- what is that you will enjoy being!!! :)

i have been a teacher, a software engineer, a writer!!!! [well i stink at it] a poet [:P - seriously] an artist [the work look like a 5 years old :P] a gardener [my plants live though :)] and many small things, but i m not going to stick to anyone of them!

i m still looking for what i want to be when i'll finish college!!!! i might go study more!!! [no i m not going to be a software engineer or teacher - but i still want to study more] travel a bit [never done that, always have excuses] teach - in a different environment, sell a picture [oh! BTW i have done that too]

but i know, if i m - there is a reason for it! i m going to look for it, even if takes my entire life.

being 27 does not mean that i have to be sure about everything in my life by now!!!! i can be as confused as i want to be!!!

until i find out what i want to be - hv fun!

The Political Circus

i pass around 'dou talwar' quite often!!! [translate it to fact that daily - four times!!!!] and yesterday was a MQM rally there, but they blocked a lot of space almost three days earlier. and what was the rally about? Peace!!! i found it funny, a bully complaining about bullying!!!!???

second almost all the sindh has broken into riots - because of the local bodies bill that provincial government passed!!! but who cares about few hundred thousands sindhis - the natives of sindh???? let them burn their own property and destroy whatever little facilities they have - we are going to stay in government, even if everyone hates us!!!

Imran Khan decided to march to Waziristan!!! Yaaye!!! finally someone to go there and see and show rest of us, how people are living there!!! But what???? he never went there!!!! he was stopped on the way and he was ok with it!!!??? obviously, he never intended to go there, because if he did, he would have settled things long before this march!!!! as MFUR (that is my short for Maulana Fazlur Rahman) said that it was a scene in a long film!!!

Hey! wait! i m not Jamat-e-Islami or whatever party MFUR belongs to either!!! it is just that i don't follow them at all!!!! O.o ... i know i should!!!
