Proud to be a Pakistani...Proud to be a survivor

Who can defeat a nation that can smile in the face of such Adversity
And who has such a courage


And such a faith in itself

Listening to the non-stop rantings from our media and thinking about several things. Things like what a nation we are that we have faced a flood in year 2010 like world has never seen before in past 300 years and still we have survived. What a nation we are that we faced one of the most severe earthquake just five years ago in 2005 and we still survived. What a nation we are that we are facing terrorists, suicide bombers, corruptions, dishonest leaderships, senseless media, mad jingoists, floods, earthquakes and we still survived. I bet no other nation has so much resistance as we do. No nation would have survived even the one tenth of what we have survived in past sixty three years. I listen many people saying Quaid-E-Azam must be very disappointed to see the state of our affairs. I say he will at least be proud of the fact that he lead a nation that matched courage of his own in the face or adversity. We have lived through very difficult times and we shall surely live through this time as well...with or without foreign aid, with or without hypocrite leadership, with or without mindless media.

I am a Pakistani and am proud of it. I want to live here and die here among those who have taught me how to live a life worth living.

But as I always say, it is my perspective...second perspective...and gosh I am happy with it.
