The last letter Shabnam wrote to Basheer was a forever ending letter which is still aplicable in her life. Sitting on the bed with her baby, she wrote it... Many questions shall be answered within couple of letters.

"It feels as if the world around me has ended. I don’t know what to do anymore.  I still remember the first letter you wrote me.  How can I forget the innocent love you had for me. Where are you? Are you listening to me? I know you can’t and that is why I am writing this letter to you. A letter which may never will reach to you. You were a thought and you will remain a thought.  I can see you in our love, the proof of our blind love. Never saw you, walking but did hear you talking. I don’t know just what to do. People say me to smile, why should I? They say me to wear colorful clothes again, why? I know why, for our love, to raise our love. I shall remain happy. It’s my last letter to you. I wrote whatever I could; now it’s time for me to restart this world with full confidence and new hope.  I will never miss you because one only misses the person when forgets him. And you are always in my thoughts.

My endless love,

Shabnam"

Basheer-shabnam letters.

Basheer, a struggling buissnessman in 1970s, moved to Karachi which is one of the biggest city in Pakistan in order to find his career. Alone and unaccompained he wrote letters by telling his feelings to his wife. Feeling the same lonliness in the other part of the country shabnam replied Basheer to his each letter. They wanted to be together but couldn't. Basheer, the only man in the house had to forget his desires in order to fulfil his family's desires.

With effect from Feb 1,2012, a series of their letters with some dramatic and realsitic writing will be publish. The names of the individuals had been changed in order to secure their privacy.

what more do I have?

An account from my very good friend's diary. It was so generous of him that he shared this with me and allowed me to share with everyone. Thank you Raj.

" I dont know, What the heck is with him? He keeps on irritating me. Today when he asked me why did I use his hair brush. I explained him that I did not use it but still he argued with me. I told dad what he was doing with me and guess what my dad said? As usual he said that karan is my big old brother and I should respect him. Then my big old brother took my cell phone because he thought that he bought me that phone and he had the right of taking it back anytime. Actually I thought about all this and yes I really depend for all my belongings on him. Except for mom, dad and  few pocket money, I don't have anything. I really need to be proactive and responsible for myself. Oh  well, time to go to bed

He was 11 years old when he wrote this and today he laughs at it because he is a student at an oustanding college. I thought of posting it to my blog because I saw the pre maturness in that 11 years old kid. That proves that we only understand the meaning of life and the importance of the practicle life when it comes upon us.

I realized dad.........

You guys must have heard your parents saying, "Do your work on time!", "You will recall our sayings when we will not be there with you", "Do you know the value of time and how much you have already wasted?". Well if not then I am going to tell you that I have heard such stuff a lot. I stll remember, one day my dad was driving the car. He asked me about the scholarship I applied for. I tried to explain him but  he told me that scholarship was a second option and I should better think about applying for a college. With my respect, he totally discouraged me for the scholarship. One other time, we were outside of our house, he asked me when was the due date for a certain thing and I told him that I didn't remember.

 He told me that I was helpless and did not care about my stuff. In my 10th grade I used to go with my friend to school everyday. My dad always asked me to be ready before time. Why was that? I never undeerstood. He told me to be kind to my mom. How much more? I was already kind enough. That all his extra questions and advices always made my mood empty.

Now I think I am getting why he always did that. He did that for my secure future. He told me to apply for a college so that I might not miss my year. He told me to care for myself and be proactive because he wanted me to be a responsible child. Now I realize why he asked me to be nice to my mom because that is the only gift from God that will never come twice. His all extra questions was to make me perfect. To make me perfect, he did his best. He raised his kids to the best level. I don't know, will I ever be able to raise my kids like that? He told me to care for my siblings because two is always better than one. I realized that my brother and sisters are all that I ever wanted to be. I thank to God that I am away from my dad because that's how I realized the importance of him in my life. He made my life perfect. If not ten years than I believe I have grown one step ahead in my life and realized the importance of my life and exsistense.

Guys,let's all make a promise, it's not too late to realize what we all are missing. Today's blog was little dramatic. But drama makes the life easier, fun and surviving. Last but not the least, I realized dad, whatever you said. Thank you.

Santa is real!

Last night we went to my friend's home. I met his little six years old brother, a sensible kid. I played table tennis with a balloon instead of a ping pong ball, with him. While playing I asked him do you believe in Santa? That's what he said, "I believe in Santa but he(Santa)  thinks I am not a good kid that is why he did not give me anything this year". His brother came up and said to him, "You know santa is not real, right?". The kid argued and said, "Santa is real!".

 I posted that on sotwam because right now that kid's life is in that shades of time in which everything is possible in the world. Why can't we be like that all the time. From the whole disscussion with that six years old kid, I realized one thing that if you truely believe in something , someday you are going to get that. Don't ever let your confidence down by some stupid comment or just because it's not realistic. Remember evrything is possible, well except for Santa Claus. :D
