It beautifully depicts the grief and the hopelessness you and most of us are going through due to inflation, the energy crisis in, the political topi drama and hagama, and the madness leading people to take their own and their loved ones' lives or to offer selling a body organ. Your disbelief in your own dream is not totally out of place. I feel the same way often although I try to blame it on my natural inclination towards pessimism :). Afterall it was the pessimists who invented parachutes. It is said that Allah grants us what we pray for. The issues is I, at times, find it hard to know what I should actually pray for. We prayed for democracy and got Mr. Zardari aka Mr. Ten Percent. I wonder how many years of 'hardwork' will it take him to get his nickname changed from Mr. Ten Percent to Mr. Cent Per Cent. But there are certain things happening as well. Recently a british equity firm took the bold step of starting a multi-million project in Pakistan which expresses the confidence of foriegn investors in our country. The textile exports of Pakistan (along with Thailand, Bangladesh) have actually been better than that of India (and probably China). Only if we could solve our energy issue, it will have a huge positive effect on lots of different variables. These are small developments you may say but when one is totally in the dark, one should try to remain positive about the light at the other end of the tunnel even if that ray of light is accompanied by the sound of a train engine ;) A well written and well-structured article about issues which upset all of us.
