Supporting Your Life

You do not always get up and start living your day. For there are days when you have to force yourself to start the day. You have to persuade yourself that it is worth doing. It is worth living. It is worth trying. 

Is it important to keep living? Is it important to keep trying? Death is an efficient process. When it comes, it never fails. Always hits the center. When it comes. it comes. When it has to happen, it happens with full efficiency. Life, on the other hand. needs your support. That is why it is important to complete the circle. Look around and do what is needed to be done. Force yourself out of bed, take a deep breath, and take on your day. 

Always remember, there is one person who can always love you, who will always listen to you, and who is always your sincere friend. That person is you. So, love yourself. Listen to yourself and always utter good things to yourself. Be your best friend. 

If you suffer, it is because of you, if you feel blissful, it is because of you. Nothing else is responsible - only you and you alone.You are your hell and your heaven too. 
- Rajnesh Osho

Review: The Weary Generation - Abdullah Hussain

Udaas Naslain is a classical story, written in the background of Indian history after 1857. The story travels from ‘The War of Independence 1857’ to the ‘independence and partition’ of India. All the key historic events in the history of the Indian subcontinent and its impact on the people are depicted so artfully.

Udaas Naslien, considered as a masterpiece of Urdu literature, was picked up with some expectations of greatness from it and was not disappointed.

Review: Benazir Bhutto - Daughter of the East

Benazir Bhutto: Daughter of the East is a “deeply moving saga of love, drama, and heroism”. My father being an admirer of the Bhutto family, we were accustomed to listening to the tales of bravery, struggle, and dedication of Bhutto family to Pakistan. When I picked up this book, I didn’t expect it to be so suffused of drama and information pertaining to Pakistani politics and history. The book is not just an emotional story of a brave daughter of Pakistan but a deep insight into Pakistani, as well as international politics, by a person who was part of the game. Benazir Bhutto, born to a well-known and affluent family of Pakistan, went to Harvard and Oxford to receive her education. Meanwhile, her father, back home, became the prime minister of Pakistan. The then COAS - Gen. Zia - took over the country, established a Martial law, and executed her father due to the fear of his public support. This was the turning point in her life when she was thrust into the game of politics by the ...

For All Those Who Shall Die

If I have to add something to my life to make it more worth living, I would add more 'love'. If more, I would add 'freedom'. If more, I would add more 'devotion' to it. Why live an intense life full of love, freedom, and devotion? Because I think this is the only thing that matters at the end of life - how much intense of a life you lived? "Just living isn't enough," said the butterfly "one must also have freedom, sunshine and a little flower." - Khalil Gibran Whenever we think of 'death', everything else we can think of or have ever thought of falls to dust. Everything settles down like dust on road. One second in air and the other on earth. We always seek something that can remain enact in the face of death. Because we are let free, we feel lost and start drawing artificial lines. How hard it is for one to accept the reality of death. It is always hard for us to accept and face the realities. To stare them in the eyes. Ill...
