Life, dreams and reality.

Posted Oct 6th, 2008 at 11:46 AM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

This morning while driving to work, I had a sad realization -- I might not be able to achieve my dreams.

It was a weird feeling. I felt really down, hopeless and depressed. I have always believed that everyone of us has a purpose to be on this planet (besides praying to Allah).

I don't want to be rich, I don't want to be the king of xyz or anything like that. I just want to do something worthwhile. I want to make sure that I contribute something positive to the society....

Making a difference.

Posted Sep 22nd, 2008 at 02:11 PM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

I had an interesting debate yesterday with a bunch of uncles vs me.

Their argument: there is nothing one person can do in Pakistan that can even remotely help solve the problem.

My argument: there is a lot an individual person can do in Pakistan that can definitely solve most of our problems.

I got the feeling that somewhere after 1947 we lost the value of hardwork. We seem to expect things to fall in our lap without any hardwork.

Life is moving...

Posted Sep 15th, 2008 at 12:58 PM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

maybe its just the lack of sleep or maybe its something else.. but lately i have been feeling the urge to take 6 months off from work and just take a nice long vacation..

as much as i would like to travel around the world after shaadi, I just think that the whole idea will be met with a lot of resistance.. from family and more importantly my back account..

sigh..

i am going to Pak this December after 10 yrs and that too at my elder bros wedding so...

so mush is gone..

Posted Aug 18th, 2008 at 11:03 AM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

now what?

I wasn't pro mush but I did believe that he was another "option" after what NS and BB did to the country. So now that we have finally pushed him over the edge. Lets see what "restoring" the judges will do, what improvments will occour now that mush is gone.

I am going to wait 3 months to give my next analysis on this whole situation. It will be good overview as well, since i will be in Pakistan after 3 months and would start a blog regarding...

sad state of our country

Posted Aug 15th, 2008 at 12:18 PM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

So another 14 August came and went by. I am sure we all celebrated it in some sense, we all made a small promise in our heart to do something for this country and we all saw politicians making pledges to make this country the best.

The sad reality is that none of that is going to convert into reality. People are not going to be that better off by sametime next year. We are not going make any major advancement in our life.

So who is to be blamed?

drama hai yeh zindagi..

Posted Aug 13th, 2008 at 10:53 AM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

i feel like we (desi ppl) make drama out of everything in life.

Zobia posted a thread in "All View" (i think) regarding her question to IK and how his response disappointed her. There was a bit of a discussion on how "nations get leaders that they deserve".. or somethign like that ..


anyways, I have been thinking. We desi ppl are so full of contradictions that I sometimes just feel yukkkk... haha

when you are stuck between a rock and a hardplace

Posted Aug 11th, 2008 at 03:06 PM by Ansoon (Ansoon's thoughts..)

man things just can't happen smoothly for me can they?

so now there is an issue of hijab of all the things.. she wants to wear a hijab .. my family is ok with it except for the wedding day..

why do desi ppl talk in circles? why can't my parents simply ask her parents exactly what they wanna ask.. be over with it.. why does it always have to end up with .. "woh humari baat nahi manay gi kiya..?"

like hellooooo.. she has her reasons to wear a...
