Simple Thoughts

I remember when I was a child of about 5-6 year, one day I started insisting to my mother that I want to become superman and she will have to do this by all means. As stubborn child I continued my insisting that she will have to make me Superman. Being a loving and caring mother, she always tried her best to fulfill all my possible wishes. But this wish was certainly not possible to be fulfilled. My mother tried to explain me, how I could become Superman. She told me, that I can only become Superman when I reach to the age of 10 because till that time my bones will be strong enough to stop a train with my power and at the same time I will easily fly. I was satisfied with the answer and agreed to wait for a few more years. By the age of 10, I was sensible enough to understand what the reality of Superman is, just a comic hero and nothing else, and surly becoming Superman was no more my wish. Today when I remember all this, I realize that…”How stupid my wish was” and “How wise was my mot...

I remember when there were some schools in our time where the children of the rich were the one who always came first in their class, irrespective of their performance in study. The reason behind this was, that the school administration had to give prize to the position holder i.e. a book, pen,pencil or a plastic cup etc., and for the school administration it was hard to find a worthy student for the prize. Usually the poor students were the one who were good in studies but being poor they were not eligible for the prize, therefore the children of rich and mighty always used to be position holder. The winning of prize definitely gives satisfaction irrespective of its value, but it gives real satisfaction when the winner feels that he really deserve it. I am sure Obama will be surprised and shocked and will definitely think and laugh at the real joke that h append with him in the form of Noble Peace Prize. The winner of Noble Peace Prize is the President of a country that is famous for ...

The experiments of testing advance weapons made by Americans and Israelis virtually came to halt in the laboratory of Gaza. The experiments heavily funded by Americans Tax payer’s money were aimed at gauging the effect of new weapons over living and un-living objects. The result includes over 1300 dead , and around 5000 injured . About 20000 buildings were destroyed including houses of Palestinians, markets, offices, schools, roads and other infrastructure. These experiments were the continuation of previous tests carried out in Lebanon. The results of these experiments are quite satisfactory for all those people who are involved in making, funding, supplying, using and supporting the use of the weapons against Palestinians.  Surely, the successful tests will revive the weapon industry and give a boom to the economies of those countries that heavily rely on sale of weapons of mass destruction. The arms making factories will work again and the people working in these factories will be ...

I belong to a small village and living in a city. Like most of the people in the city, I depict to be a busy person who is having little time for social interaction despite having a lot of free time. Simply, in materialistic environment, with having a lot of people around us, we are living a self made physical and mental isolation. Being busy, having no time, tight schedule, less interaction, these are terms that became fashion words in this time of deceptive world. But alone we all think that we cannot leave alone, we need people around us to talk with, to share with, to lesson to whom but our masked faces restrict us from doing so as we may be called backward people living in the world of fantasies. I rarely go to my village, usually two to four times a year and that is mostly on Eid or some other occasions. Despite having very much little interaction with the local people I always got very warm response from them. This is something we usually don’t see in the cities. On the main roa...
