A Peaceful Pakistan, Just a Dream?

You must have felt for the love lost, the dreams abandoned and some tragic accident; but you must have never felt the urgency of survival like the way I and thousands of youngsters in my nation feel today. Its more painful than the love gone wrong, more fierce than the dreams shattered and more wild than a tragic accident. Perhaps what I am talking about is clearly understood by the millions of Kashmiris, Bosnians, Palestinians, Afghanis, Iraqis and the list goes on; who have been subjected to a similar kind of threshold, though by different quarters!

And today the world debates that this is the fallout of our own actions? Can anyone please explain what offense those nursery-rhyme learners have committed who can't even spell the word "terrorism" correctly at this juncture of their lives?

However, I don't disown the notion that we have been pushed to the dark end of this tunnel by the ruling class of our very own. And today the whole nation is bearing the brunt of the leader's negligence and callousness. As in other countries, the youth of Pakistan is ambitious, frivolous and diligent too. But owing to the prevailing situation, they have been forced to shut themselves down in homes. They are perfectly normal and impeccable as you are and they own a heart too!Then why o why, are they branded as terrorists? There is only one thing all Pakistanis are asking for, a peaceful Pakistan. The youth of Pakistan has a sole demand i.e that they want to return to their normal lives with no threats hanging in their minds.Is it too much to ask?May Almighty Allah pull us out of this situation soon. Ameen!
