The ‘peaceful’ protests we witnessed yesterday were supposed to have been against the blasphemous movie that disrespected the Prophet (SAW), but sadly, as with almost all religiously motivated protests in Pakistan, that simply wasn’t the case! There were numerous peaceful protests throughout the country, but they were overshadowed by the looting, bloodshed, and utter chaos caused by the hooligans that …

Every Ending Is A New Beginning…

Perhaps one of the most important lessons of life, a simple truth and a simple fact; nothing simply ends and then ceases to exist. Everything ends for a reason, and that reason is to let something new begin. Life on this Earth ends, so that we may begin a new life, in a new state, a new existence. Life is …

Zindagi hi kuch aisi hai, Khwahish hi kuch aisi hai, Du’aa hi kuch aisi hai, Khata hi kuch aisi hai, Chah ke bhi zindagi khafa si hai, Duniya bhi kuch khafa si hai… - Kashif Malim

Aik lamhe ne jeena sikhaya, Aik lamhe ne zinda rehna sikhaya, Qadam qadam pe is duniya ne, Sab ke saath rehte huey akele rehna sikhaya, Har saans har dharkan mein aik hi aas thi, Aik ehsaas ki khwaahish thi, Ji ji ke humein zindagi ne sikhaya, Mar mar ke humein jeena sikhaya, Apne zinda hone ka ehsaas dilaya, Apne hone …

Can Aggressive Marketing Work For You?

Self Discovery

Kashif — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 12:00:05 +0000

A cliché, but an astute observation, nonetheless. Books teach us a lot about ourselves and about the world, about life and about love. From the ephemeral, to the ethereal, to the surreal, books talk about all and yet talk about nothing. The one thing that very few people gain from books is the feelings or emotions behind each word, each …

Some awesome words from Javed Akhtar, in the movie. Pighle neelam sa yeh behta sama, Neeli neeli si khaamoshi, Na kahin hai zameen, na kahin aasmaan, Sarsaraati hui tehniyan, pattiyan, Keh rahi hain ke bas ek tum ho yahan, Sirf main hoon, meri saansein hain aur meri dharkanein, Aisi gehraiyan, aisi tanhaiyan, aur main, sirf main, Apne hone pe mujh …
