Face book daily question :

“What is on your mind”
Well who is so interested about what is in my mind?
Why would anyone be interested about what I have been holding or hiding in my mind. And even if there is something on my mind, do I have to tell everyone ?

Truth of the matter is there are a lot of things on my mind but not all for sharing. Remember ” keh ek baat batani haiy ik chupani haiy ” though there is nothing worth hiding. What is bothering me is Salman Haider’s disappearing. He was a face book friend and soon found out I did not agree with his thinking so the distance crept in. There are two things/ ideologies that I love with passion.

One is my love of Allah and his Prophet
And second is my love for Pakistan

There is no way I would bargain on any of the two.

I hope and pray that he comes back home, all safe and sound. My heart goes out to his little son Sarmad. When it comes to children, I have totally old fashioned views on the subject. When we bring a child into the world, we sign an unwritten bond, a commitment to give the child a safe and happy childhood.. give them all the love we have and thus raise someone mentally and emotionally balanced, without any feelings of deprivations and who would rightly be an asset to family and the society ,and to make all that a reality, parents are obligated to keep themselves safe, healthy and happy. You either can be an activist or a parent.  A childhood of deprivation is no childhood. You have to be there for their happiness and their heartbreaks – no matter how tiny and insignificant in your eyes they may be.

Please, please whoever you guys are, set Salman free and then sit with him and ask him what you wanted to know.
