Depression.

We are all suffering through a lot, in our own different ways. Suffering doesnt just mean that one suffers physically. It literally doesn't mean to have some sort of physically disease or to have some disease regarding our metabolism. We're living in a country where "mentally depressed" is not being counted in "suffering". Blackmailing, torturing and of course " Log kya kahyngy" is ruling our minds. There is a person who is getting blackmailed about something. There is another person who is being tortured brutally. There are people who are not allowed to study their favourite fields and are being told that only medical and engineering are good field. And then there are people who are suffering from " log kya kahyngy ." * Don't wear that dress warna loug kya kahyngy. Engineering chor ke literature parhogi? Loug kya kahyngy? Haww did you hear about Mr. Khan's daughter?? She just got divorced. Loug kya kahyngy ab? Did you know M...

Passion is thing that makes you bigger



"I want to be the prime minister of Pakistan, or maybe the secretary general of the United Nations” I said, 5 years ago, as the entire class along with the teacher laughed. I continued speaking as that laughter turned into irritating giggles and eventually stopped. The topic of our speech was ‘my dream’ and that was the first ‘honest’ speech I gave and it made me realize that the world will laugh on honesty, it will laugh on your dreams and it will laugh on you. You have two options, either you laugh along or you slowly turn their laughter’s into giggles eventually stopping them and turing them into gossips.

I went to MUNs and in no time I had people laughing at me because I was 12 years of age and telling me to go sit at the back and wait until the draft resolution was ready. ‘Dheet’ as they call me, I kept standing and made sure my voice was heard. That journey transformed me from an ‘Aww cute and immature’ type of a delegate to the ‘most annoying delegate’ and honestly, that transformation sure was quick and fun.

A year passed and I was finally 13, I had the dream of the first ever junior Model United Nations in Pakistan. I went to some people to share my idea and I got laughed at ‘again.’ But let’s not forget how ‘dheet’ I was, I went to some more people who supported me and my 'Unrealistic dreams' as they refer to it. Now with their support and of course my Dheet'ness' my very first dream came true.

I like when people laugh at me, it makes me feel important. It should make everyone out there feel important. When you are being laughed at, you are actually being envied. Their prejudiced laughter’s won’t stop me, they shouldn’t stop you.

World's only Fertile desert

Desert usually means "a waterless, desolate area of land with little or no vegetation, typically one covered with sand",  But this is not the case with Tharparkar. Part of Rajahstan desert and residing in Sindh Pakistan, Thar have two water springs namely Anchlesar and Sardhro, as well as temporary streams called Bhatuyani River and Gordhro River which flow during the rainy season. This desert area mostly consists of barren tracts of sand dunes which are covered with thorny bushes. The ridges are irregular and roughly parallel, they rise to a height of about 46 meters and often create valleys. But due to some unusual rainy seasons and efforts by SCARP (Salinity Control and Reclamation (SCARP) Transition Pilot Project this desert has turned into a fertile land. Thus being World's only Fertile desert.  Surely, it is a great achievement for SCARP and Pakistani Government.
