As the heavy clouds leave the beach of Arabian Ocean up on Karachi, I try to seek answers to years long troubling questions - of happiness, democracy, respect and dignity. I find myself too helpless to find anything out of it. However, one thought keeps racing my mind as has been through this month of August when we, Pakistanis, celebrate the independance of a country which marked decline in British Colonialism post WW2. The thought is simple and I’d like to share with everyone, Pakistani or non-Pakistanis.

Free were you born so let yourself die Free too. And you aren’t dead as yet until you are.

Here’s to Freedom and its endless bounties.
