In the summer heat


There is complete silence...sweat drops roll on my face there is nothhing i can do,go somewhere,read a book or write.Dont feel like eating just drink,drink and drink loads water and juices to quench my thirst.I feel so disconnected from the entire world.I feel iam missing on important news (which do not arouse any feelings now we have gotten immune to them!!)rather gory news like a dozen bomb blasts....figures of no. of human beings bombed to death by deadly drones (with an average of around 50 daily in waziristan only)....other common innocent crimes like robbery by politicians(the credit card theft)..and the infinite list goes on...

Suddenly the monstrous machines start rolling making such roaring noises all around...the light has finally come,after a torturous hour,in sweltring heat half roasting us.Again i switch on the T.V and the same news start pouring in...everyday is the same.There is no respite from heat or bad news.i just wonder why do we even bother to switch on the T.V at all?when the news are quite predictable? or we just enjoy listening to it again and again till we become immune to it and start considering it a part of our lives?(we already have)

And why am i singing the same pessimistic tune ,which can be heard every where? we need to think as a nation .."HAS THIS BECOME ARE MINDSET"? This is all, the fruits of the media which doesnt spare any one .Though one positive effect of this free and pervasive media is that politicains are being held accountable.Media is tightening its noose on the criminals in this society.And (as recently happened)forcing the party leaders to kick out the offenders who have been proven guilty,like the recent credit card theif whose video footage worked wonders.This is a positive change in Pakistan.Hats off to the media.
We really need to change the way we think that itself will make alot of difference . Just start thinking positively and we have taken the first step towards identifying and solving the problems which concern pakistan.off course there is a way out and we the younger generation have to take the initiative. i invite every reader to give their feedback and suggestions on how this can be done.
