A PERFECT DAY

Have you ever experienced a perfect day? Have your peace and happiness depended on - what is going on around you? Are things happening as you ever planned? How have people treated you?

Suppose we keep questioning and giving away control of our emotions to external circumstances. In that case, we become weak day by day - waking up hoping for everything to be our way and getting upset each time an unexpected scene unfolds. We have a choice of how to respond to every scene of the .....

WHAT IS LIFE?

Life is different for everyone, and everybody has his own spectacles to view, which is why it looks different. The writer has presented his view on life.

Life is fun for clowns and children and full of struggles and hardships for an orphan homeless boy. Life is a bed of roses for the king and queen.

On the other hand, it is full of trials for those born poor. Life is another name for responsibility for those who feed their families.

Life is all about ou.....

CHILDHOOD

You wish to get back to your childhood

As it was full of fun and joy

Those were the days when the swings made you cheerful;

When the clowns made you laugh

When ringing the door-bells made you feel victory

A child in you still yearns; to be frolicking, pranking, and mischievous,

All for nothing, but to be happy;

Let yourself willing to awaken your inner child again;

to enjoy the remaining years to the fullest

Find your lost laughter beh.....

LET'S UNDERSTAND ...

If your colleague makes a mistake today, will he repeat it tomorrow? If your family member is rude to you today, will he not change tomorrow? Instead of looking forward to a better tomorrow, do you jump to a negative conclusion that these people will never change? Whether we realize it or not, everyone is constantly changing, either for better or worse. It means people who give us tough times today could leave us feeling pleasant tomorrow. We just need to take care that we change to be better.....

WALK

 This was another day same clouds

 same birds on trees evicted their

 legacy of leaves to a nameless

 chatty ghost in the wind, cramped

 in corners, I fingered your hairs

 did not stop literally and continued

 confessing the skin till sepulcher

 trails of evening craved space, even

 the road did not show up anything

 a crow picked on the patchy grass

 and you held on like a silen.....

THING

There was something in the sky I could not see

What could have been so vague obviously on

a horizon just the same as ever for all centuries of

dust and trash winding up curls on our streets.

I thought of forcing my brain but then did not

however, the compulsion to eliminate doubts

I called you; you were busy fixing the crisis

in your stories; each plot, a character aborted

annoyed you only wept and restarted again.

THE LATE NIGHT THOUGHTS

Late at last night

Holding my pillow tight

The thoughts in my mind

Actually, making me remind

Life seems unfair sometimes

But

Silence echoed silence,

Glow worms flickering spots of light,

Like stars here and there,

Cricket’s sounds broke the silence,

Foot falls heard,

A dog gave out a shrill cry,

A woman opened the door,

She had expected a storm,

The darkness haunts every single.....

WOMAN

OVERSEAS PAKISTANIS - THE DISPERSED BEADS

Lately, Pakistani expatriates have witnessed criticism in various forms on numerous forums. It comes as a surprise to them, and hence, I thought to touch briefly on this topic.

Overseas Pakistanis have not left the country willingly.  They have been compelled to leave their mother homeland by circumstances dominated by an unjust system and an utter disregard for merit. Back in the country, they .....

WINTER SEASON

Winter season is the most fascinating season of all. We look for the cool touch the whole year. Though it departs so early, but it brings lots of memories with it. Winter seems so soothing and comforting, especially when we are in our cozy blankets having peanuts as a treat. Winter is usually calm and quiet with freezing winds.

Winter is also considered a symbol of decay and destruction in the literary term, but still, it is the most loved season.  The rain in extremely co.....
