malangi88: Humans or vultures?:
"Happy birthday little one-- u`re gone some place better than us but you left us all grieving we love you and we miss you" ... i choked as i read the post on his face book wall by his sister. Her brother was gone never to come back again, a bright student, a loyal friend a great human being. I am not related to this boy or his sister but my brother used to be a close friend of this kid, all i knew about him was that he was my brothers friend and my junior in school. Yet another victim of genocide, when my brother called us up to break the news i felt something gushing up my head, my throat was about to rip open and my vision was blurred with tears. A stray bullet hit the boy while he was on his way to donate blood for bomb blast victims on a religious procession, its been three years and yet my brother exclaimed a few days back while going through his news feed "oh its his birthday :D" ... and within a split second he realized he wont be able to wish him again and said "OH!" ... i could see grieve and guilt take over him, quickly he changed the topic but the vibe was there for quite some time upsetting us both.
Never in my life did i think people would have to cope up with this much hate in their daily lives. Killings in the name of caste, sects, sub-sects. Ironically only when someone related to us is a victim do we realize the effects of such killings. Humanity is above all religions and no religion in the world asks humans to act as vultures but we are all conveniently tagging inhumane acts as the will of GOD. I am one miser human but i firmly believe GOD is supreme and omnipotent, He does not need weak humans killing each other in his name in order to prove his supremacy. Hate is draining us all of our humanity, how badly i wish it stops never to start again....

Facebook Gorilla`s
Our young demagogues have been hit by sloth; the Facebook tab that states “what’s in your mind” is the most effective tool to vent out your anger on an inefficient Pakistani system, abuse current leaders or complain about load shedding. One comic strip, stripping the clothes off the administration spreads like wild fire on facebook, 3 mins 300+ shares, 250 comments.
Hypocrites to the core, we “the mavericks” are worse than the government or the politically, morally, socially corrupt leaders. Voting itself is a clichéd concept, political know-how is rare, all we do is play the BLAME GAME and we are all pretty good at it. Complain, curse, share … good enough!! ..
Struck by some mental superiority disease each of us believes we` re better than the people doing the job!! … It’s easy to give instructions about cleaning up the gutter but once you get your hands filthy only then would you know what the real deal is, BUT…. Why should we?? … dude? I have a laptop a facebook account a gazillion friends to like my status … m rebellious!! …i write invective blood boiling statements that will urge “others” to stand up and fight!! M too comfy to actually stand up and do something … story of our lives ….
Ironically more than half of our youth does not bother about understanding how their country works. Know what role does a constitution play in a country … the rights citizens have … how the national assembly operates … what is a cabinet .. what level of authority addresses what issues etc etc it’s a long list. “dude! I hate politics” … “oh please politics is shit … m apolitical” … we are too cool to understand the basic workings of our country`s system….
Its easier to point your finger than understanding … then again if politics is shit and we the “REBELS” don’t care, should it be our representatives headache to cater to our interest when we don’t even bother understanding what our interests are?? …. POSITIVE NAÏVE GULLIBE COMPLAINING CITIZENS … too cool for anything …
