Hi, I want to dedicate this thread to my apology to anyone who I have been harsh on lately. Tolerance and acceptance/listening of all views is the cornerstone of debate and I may have failed in this recently.
Please note that I have had an extremely tough life and am facing multiple problems recently and before. I lost three relatives, one very close during the last 3-4 years. The non close ones could have been murdered. And the close one drowned if I don't know something.
I have been struggling to find a job, be independent and my parents have become very different and cold to my problems since the last few years. I am thinking a good job would give me power and independence but I am still far from being independent. This and my parents doing some things are really affecting my self confidence.
On the other hand everything I have tried has failed. I wrote 2 books hoping that my financial situation will change with their publishing but I failed to get published.
Sorry if this sounds like a sob story and because I generally do not share personal problems I have kept this brief rather than detail my problems bit by bit which would even reveal what RAW did to my people. Anyway.
Note that I don't want sympathy or help. Just saying why I have been acting contrary to my core beliefs of liberty and listening to the other side.
I do admit I have been offended by some views. Needless to say I am a Karachite with unproven pashtun background but our family calls itself muhajir. Now I am very patriotic but our family moved a little late. I have seen my share of racism over this. Just because of the Indian muslims who are traitors and Afghan nationals who spit on my country, don't judge us all. Immigration is a truth and people move from somewhere, its the story of earth from the time of homo sapiens. What is the point of denying us when not only the institutions vetted us but also when we start businesses and cater to the needs to the nation by providing jobs. What happened, happened, we migrated to what is now Pakistan. Now its time to make the country better. I have every intention of serving Pakistan.
Anyway that is beyond the scope of this discussion. Here I want to apologize to anyone upon whom I let my anger out.
The only person I don't apologize to is one person I won't name which I am ready to do if he atleast admits he was wrong too. Its not you ghenda.
@save_ghenda @war&peace @Zibago @Divergent1 @Well.wisher @doordie @WAJsal @WebMaster others. Including banned members. Sorry webbie, mods for that mess you had to deal with a few weeks ago because of me.
Really nice expression of sentiments, I am deeply touched. I can fully empathize with you as I have faced the exact same situation as you in life. The same despair, feeling of lack of support and lack of success despite all efforts.
I cannot say that I have erased all of it from my life and become a great success. That would be delusional. However, I do know that today I am much more balanced and relaxed in life. I am at peace with myself and feel good about my life. It has been a long process but worth it.
If there is anything I can do to help in any way, please tell me. I will do anything I can to help you as my younger brother. You are an excellent person and I am sure you will find peace and happiness in life.
