In my head


Happy that they're safe from all this
Content that they're happier than they could ever be
Hopeful that I might get to be with them again
Scared that I might not get to be with them again
Pained cos it hurts to imagine the world without them
Lost when I cant feel them or see them or hear them
Torn with the desire to meet them and the inability to
Wrecked cos I need to cry, but they dont want me to
Sad cos i miss them, cos I'm only human...

Ashamed

By now most of you must have heard the story of the two brothers brutally beaten to death and hanged in Sialkot for no reason. I can only imagine the kind of pain the family of the poor brothers must be going through. I was kept awake all night, i cant even bare to think of the pain felt by their mother. Such brutality, such savagery its unforgivable. I cant imagine how anyone could just watch and not stop it before their eyes. Personally I would like to see all of the criminals tied to carts, dragged on stones, burnt in fire and worse. Even if they dont ge the punishment they deserve in this world, INSHALLAH they will get their due in the Hereafter. Right now, i feel ashamed to be a Pakistani, ashamed to be a human. Our pure and wondrous country Pakistan, run over by a race of crude savages. A shame it is indeed.

Please sign the petitions below. We should do whatever little we can to help this cause.

Brood

 Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know that you're just time away
Long ago I reached for you, and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could, but you're so far away

One more song about moving along the highway
Can't say much of anything that's new
If I could only work this life out my way
I'd rather spend it being close to you
But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're so far away
Yeah, you're so far away

Traveling around sure gets me down and lonely
Nothing else to do but close my mind
I sure hope the road don't come to own me
There are so many dreams I have yet to find
But you're so far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
And it doesn't help to know you're so far away
You're so far away 
Yeah, you're so far away 
You're so far away 





A masterpiece by Carole King. However good songs the musicians today may write they can never achieve the depth and intensity, the heart felt out pour in such simple yet effectual language  of the old songs especially songs of the late 60s early 70s.


 I see the glistening pavement, light from the street lamp casting an ethereal glow on the surroundings. I see the moon hanging low, shining pearlescently as the stars wink in the backdrop. I see the trees lean in to whisper to each other in the soft breeze... And sometimes I don't see any of it.

Happy Independence Day!


May ALLAH bless our country! grumbling and arguing over the tyrannical rule of the 'yellow saw' (yes thats what i call zardaari as in zard aari :p ) apparently isnt doing anyone any good. Lets all just join our hands in prayer to Allah Almighty to protect our precious country from evil and calamities, forgive our sins, give us righteous rulers and show us all the straight path. AMEEN.

Sometimes you have to be happy even if you cant truthfully feel it inside.

Blank Palate

Funny how time seems to rush by so fast... We used to think "time and tide wait for none" was a little too exaggerated.. now.. not so much. Come to think of it, that isn't the only thing time and tide have in common. They both have the ability to just brush away stuff, take away so much from us, give us new things, leave a whole new picture every time... whether you like it or not.
