NATURAL DISASTERS

-
Dear all,

The weather is changing globally due to global warming. We should be ready for natural disasters like earthquakes, tornadoes, sea storms, ice storms, floods, etc. Many countries are facing this situation in worse-than-ever form. Some of them are developed countries, but they know that it is better to wait for it patiently and let it pass. They are already equipped to deal with such disasters, but sometimes all preparation seems not enough. Actually, these are unstoppable, and we are helpless against them. We are now able to predict some of them but cannot judge the consequences. It is just on estimations and forecasts.

As civilized people, what we can do in such a situation is just to be vigilant and get appropriate training to face these natural disasters. I admire the role of telecommunication and the internet in this regard, as they are flooding us with information on precautions and security measures to meet this situation. We should carefully listen and understand the steps for security and also train our children. Awareness is the key to handling such circumstances. It also helps rescue teams in crucial times.

I followed all the CNN transmission regarding “Irma”; that was remarkable. All people were alert and abiding by the rules. But I was disappointed to see a few people wandering and enjoying the beach with their kids and pets. It was high alert at that time, but “who cares”. They were capturing the view in their eyes and cameras just to upload an image or video on social sites. Police had arrested many for the violation, but we should also keep in mind that police and other rescue teams were deputed to help the victims. It is a waste of time and resources to engage them in such activities. Also, it was not a picnic time, and hurricanes and tornadoes do not spare anybody.

If someone is willing to help others and also wants to come out at this time, proper training should be the foremost priority for them. This training should be according to your geographical situation. On normal days, enlist yourself in rescue platforms. They will definitely call you to join them in such noble efforts. Help others and enjoy being human. At least, we can do something for ourselves, family and neighbors.


Being human, we always stand up after being hurt or damaged. It is a human spirit that helps us fight against natural disasters. We are all in one string of humanity; people from the world are always standing with victims of all natural disasters. Whenever an earthquake hits in a developed country, all countries on the globe and their people come forward and contribute to reconstruction. Help is not limited to finance; we can show the whole world a gesture of being together in all calamities. We can share their grievances. This is the least we can do for others. Long live humanity.

Best regards.

FESTIVITY OF BASANT

Hello all, Festivals are meant to give pleasure to people. They are not only a source of enjoyment but also create a positive image of a nation. They also promote the culture, food, and traditions of the natives. In modern times, festivals have also become a source of business promotion, whether it is on a town level or at an international exhibition. I opened my eyes to Lahore city, where “Basant” was one of the most popular festivals of the spring season. “Basant” is a festival that has been celebrated in the subcontinent, especially Punjab, for a long time. It was celebrated to welcome the lively spring, which brings back life to nature. This time, when the blowing breeze blooms with the fragrance of flowers, there are colors spread everywhere on the ground. Young hearts would warm up and want to color the sky as well. The festivity came with the tradition of inviting relatives and friends over and preparing delicious food all day long. In the ’90s, it changed i...

HAPPINESS- SPREAD THE COLORS ARROUND

Hello all, Happiness and enjoyment never come from an outer source; they are within us. If we are light in mood, we are happy, and if we are heavy, then it is sadness. Sometimes we are between both moods, and that is seriousness. All moods carry with them different feelings, and everyone loves to live within one’s comfort zone, but happiness is a step ahead. It brings a way to flourish in our life. It introduces us to the brighter side of our life. It affects everybody in a different way; one can enjoy it while watching a movie with a handful of popcorn, another playing a game, and another feeling satisfaction in reading books. Many people love to wander around, some watch TV, and many gossip. Few like relaxing in a separate place with a cup of coffee or a drink in their hand, while some others would turn the music on, hit the woofers, pick up the pace themselves, and force others to dance along too. Everybody has his own perspective towards life. The versatility of life...

SUPERSTITION

-
Hello all, According to many readings and scientific studies, our illusions are due to some disorder in mental chemical levels. We overthink a lot and make up our minds according to what we think often. These kinds of beliefs are very common in our daily routine. These are called superstitions and vary from area to area. Many times, they have no similarity between them, but the purpose is the same: "superstition". Another reason for these superstitions is that many clever and manipulative people spread their self-created myths among simple and illiterate people and influence them to believe them.  The worst I ever read was in stories where men or women were being burnt due to the belief that the victims were involved in witchcraft. It was a common way to take revenge on somebody.  In the sub-continent, there are many superstitions believed to be true; actually, those are not, because we do not have any concrete argument for their validity. Here I want to mention a...
