From Passion to Practicality

What happened in between my previous blog and this blog? I failed my interview of Hydrogeologist in B. WASA, though I was confident that I will make it through, but I failed, the astonishing thing is that the one who has been selected shared his concerned about the questions asked in the interview and was afraid that those question was not relevant. Whereas I was sure of my answers in interview. Study: I couldn’t complete my M. Phil in due time, I have taken extension now, just started writing my thesis. Started it from sedimentology chapter, the most important of them all. Work: 9:30 am to 7:30 pm work time, giving my 100% at work, nothing bothers boss, still complains at occasions, never appreciates, will take credit of good work, complain about anything less than good.  “My craze for work has never faded and never it will”. Haji Waseh (Boss & Uncle) and me both are developing interest in Cars, with implementation of Auto policy 2016-2021 which has resul...

Life at 26

My last blog was posted in January 2017. Eight months have been passed. Its 10 th of Muharram the day when Shiite Muslim mourns the dreadful demise of Hazrat Imam Hussein. Its 2: 30 in afternoon at my Office (Ravi Center, Quetta) I just finished my work and started writing this piece. 2017 isn’t year of great achievements for me so far, but it can be as I am waiting for my interview which is to be conducted by Baluchistan Public service commission, I passed the test conducted for the post of Hydro-geologist in Ramadan this year and now eagerly waiting for my interview, If I get selected which I wish more than anything at moment, the last quarter of the year can still be fruitful in terms of any big achievement. What I do during the day? I get up early at 7:45 these days, take a shower, take my brake fast, and then I left for my office at 8:50, take a 10-minute ride on motorcycle to office, sits on God damn table designed by me but built off course by carpenter. I mostly sit ...

Year 2016 summed up in one Blog

Though I was committed to write a blog every month, but this commitment seems to be another addition to long list of unfulfilled commitments. In support of above stated thought I would say that I still have my new year resolution written on piece of white paper placed under my working table mirror, the table I work on for at least 7 hours every day, I used to take a glance on my new year resolution, But now I haven’t put my sight on the paper for quite a while because I know I have failed myself yet again. Weight loss was not on the list of things I had to do during this passing year, but it came in midway as my first marriage proposal was rejected in June. The reason can be anything, but a brother like friend Nazir Dawi from Kabul suggested that I should immediately get in shape or in other case I should be mentally prepared for rejection of many more marriage proposals. So during Ramadan I showed great willingness to losing some weight, I worked on it starting from finding wei...

RIP Habib Mohebian

I just found that one of great Persian singer and song writer Habib Mohebian, commonly known as Habib has passed away, the news of his demise has been shared by his fellow singer Ebi on Facebook. May his soul rest in eternal peace, at these sad moments I want to extend my condolences to his family and fans around the world. I would love to give tributes to him by sharing one of my all time favourite song of him. من مرد تنهای شبم مهر خموشی بر لبم تنهاو غمگین رفته ام دل از همه گسسته ام تنهای تنها،غمگین و رسوا تنها و بی فردا منم من مرد تنهای شبم مهر خموشی بر لبم من مرد تنهای شبم صد قصه مانده بر لبم از شهر تو منرفته ام کوله بارمرا بسته ام بی فکر فردا، با خود و تنها عابر این شب ها منم بی فکر فردا، با خود و تنها عابر این شب ها منم من مرد تنهای شبم مهر خموشی بر لبم من مرد تنهای شبم صد قصه مانده بر لبم

Bacha Khan's Death Anniversary

Image
January 20 th of 2016 is death anniversary of one of my favorite personality Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan aka Bacha Khan, the man who has influenced me to great extent by his great work, and fortunately he is not religious figure rather a political and Peace keeping activist. It blows my thoughts that how difficult it would be or even impossible it would be to tell and convince someone to treat rightfully their women, and to settle differences among tribesman, and to let their daughters get education in early 1900, and if you have to convince Pashtuns you will have surely need guts to do so, even today I have found it much difficult to convince Pashtuns to vaccinate their children in order to prevent Polio. Bacha Khan did convince them on plenty of issues in early 1900 when people were much narrow minded and were more affected by conspiracy theories than today. Bacha Khan's portrate by Khudai Khidmatgar Hamdullah Arbab of Jalalabad Bacha Khan has huge impact on Pashtun’s h...

My views on Paris Attacks

Image
These are my views on Paris attacks, and replies of my Friends to it...   Replies of my Friends were ambiguous as expected.... A good Friend of mine Abdul  Nafeh sarcastically pointed me, and received my reply... Its really hard to have your own views on certain things in Land of Pures (Pakistan) and if your views is liberal and differs from majority than hardships awaits you, I am glad that I said what i have to and stood by my sayings...

FALLEN GIANTS

Image
  If you have mourned the demise of Hamid Gul enough and are in your nerves now, I would like you to have some words for Shuja Khanzadah. The two giants fallen within the time span of one week, but in totally different ways, the former died due to brain hemorrhage the latter died in the line of duty. Hamid Gul God knows had blooded his hands with how many innocent lives. One shouldn’t forget that he was among the main architectures of Zia-ul-Haq’s draconian doctrine. That is hunting public of Pakistan todate.  Isn’t it confusing for Pseudo Patriots that those who flourished under Zia and Hamid Gul’s supervision have martyred Shujah Khanzadah, but to many of us Hamid Gul is hero; and Shujah Khanzadah is man like many other killed in the line of duty. Some are praising Hamid Gul for his Pan Islamist Ideologies and his services for Muslim Umah. I would say that  are they out of their minds? There is nothing for any in service man (specially for ISI chief) like Mus...

د افغانستان او د پاکستان اړيکې

يار چې ماشوم وي د هندوانو په شان مينه کوي چې را لوی شي نو افغان شي رانه کلی بيل کړي نه پوهيږم چې پاکستان کې ميشت ولسونه او د افغانستان ولس په څه دليل دښمنۍ پالي۔ آيا دواړه غاړې عام ولس وږي نه دي؟ بې اختياره او بې واکه نه دي؟ دواړه غاړې ولسونه به تر قيامته ګاونډيان يا يو بل پورې تړلي نه وي؟  بل خوا هند او پاکستان هم په اصطلاح دښمنان دي، پوځي جنګونه يې سره راغلي، دواړو اټومي بمونه هم خوندي کړي خو بيا يې هم ليکوالان، فلمي هنرمندان، سندرغاړي، سوداګر، شاعران يو له بل سره ډيرې ژورې او تلپاتې اړيکې پالي، ستر ستر سيمينارونه او غونډې جوړوي، هند او پاکستان تر منځ د ستونزو په اړه بحثونه کوي او د حل لارې يې څاري۔  هند او پاکستان تر منځ د مدني ټولنو رول د ستايلو وړ دی۔ د افغانستان او پاکستان دغه سيمې ولسونو تر منځ ولې دښمني؟  د هند او پاکستان مدني ټولنې د هندي توب په اساس يو له بل سره مينه کوي خو د افغانستان او پاکستان تر منځ ولسونه له يو بله دومره ليرې دي ته به وايي له بابا آدمه تر دې دمه او تر وروستي دمه همدې بې دليله دښمنی ته زيږول شوي۔   ...

Love to listen Country/Western Music

Image
In love with country music since last two years, better than many things we listen in the name of music, the song writers who usually sings their own written songs leads you to think the way they want. The lyrics are usually mind blowing…. Beside a singing mountain stream Where the willow grew Where the silver leaf of maple Sparkled in the morning dew I braided twigs of willows Made a string of buckeye beads But flesh and blood needs flesh And blood And you're the one I need Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood And you're the one I need I leaned against a bark of birch And I breathed the honey dew I saw a North-bound flock of geese Against a sky of baby blue Beside the lily pads I carved a whistle from a reed Mother Nature's quite a lady But you're the one I need Flesh and blood needs flesh and blood And you're the one I need. A cardinal sang just for me And I thanked him for the song Then the sun went slowly down the west And I had to mov...

Jihadists on Payroll

Image
Are Jihadists on payroll of someone? Answer to this question can be either Yes or No. Whenever news of any Taliban commander or any Sectarian activist offering his services (for the sake of Jihad) to ISIL comes in front of me, it makes me doubtful about his faith. Jihad is often considered as something related to faith. Faith prey upon strict beliefs.Your belief and faith can't change over night. Jihadists changing their faith (by offering their services to another extremist group) that frequently are surely miss guided. Not every group to which extremists offer their services can be right guided, either Taliban or ISIL one of these two group will be on the right track. But it seems that Taliban are no more guided by right faith, cause those Jihadists who previously fought for Taliban are now converting and assembling under Abu-Bakar-Al-Baghdadi's ISIL.  Ironically Taliban were previously acclaimed as the Islamic and agreed Emarat, but now ISIL is getting thei...

Peshawar Massacre

Image
We have never collected that huge amount of sympathies we collected on Peshawar massacre. A lot has been said and written, I shouldn't have chosen this topic for my monthly blog, but the incident was gut wrenching and the consequences were huge, so I had to write something about this. This isn't the first time Peshawar has bled, but this was an increase in the long list of tragic incidents Peshawar has seen in the recent time. 147 boys along with their teachers were killed in day light in provincial capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhuwa. The incident got worldwide coverage. Many leaders and celebrities around the world shown their concern and sympathies on this incident. Young Victims of Peshawar Attack The responsibility of the incident was claimed by Taliban, but Hafiz Saeed and Hameed Gul kind of people argued that these couldn't be Taliban but they tried to find Indian conspiracy behind this incident. Ironically, a two minutes silence was observed in all I...

My ever changing musical Choices

Image
Whenever, My Big Bro listen to my musical choices on my laptop, a reaction comes up in form of scolding and anger or more often with a request to play “Good music” or at least the music his ears bear to listen. Beside the respect and love I have in my heart for him I mostly refuse him in this regard due to his limited knowledge about music and his limited choices. I am the one who has huge musical choices. The singers I started listening first, was few famous Pakistani Pop singers (Haroon Rashid, Fakhir Mahmood, Sajjad Ali, Ali Haidar etc), when private Fm music channels started broadcasting for the first time back in 2003, 2004. Those channels not only gave the noble opportunity to their listener to listen to some good music but to make musical choices via calls and sms services. Haroon Rashid Fakhir Mehmood I guess I was student of 7 th or 8 th class. One of my finest memories of that time is that I used to complete school homework while listening to mu...

23 October 2014

Image
23 October 2014 was among one of those bloodiest days Quetta has seen in recent years. It was an ordinary day until the incidents that happen during the day made it extraordinary. The incidents that happened during the day were multi-oriented, the first incident in the row that happened in morning was case of sectarian killing, when innocent fruit merchants of Hazzara town were killed in firing on the bus they were traveling in, one of many cases that take place on regular basis now. The second incident was attack on the FC patrolling vehicle on Qambarani road, which took at least 2 lives. The third incident was the one felt more deeply across the country, attack on the Key Religious Political Leader Moulana Fazal Rehman of JUI-F, just after their gathering in Quetta city. This attack was suicidal, and claimed 2 lives including attacker. One may think that these attacks are common now, but I think that these attacks are interlinked in some ways. The...

د خپل وياړ ساتونکي ريحانه جباري

خپلې  #مور  ته د  #ریحانې_جبارې  د  #لیک  یوه برخه! هستي ما ته اجازه راکړه چې نولس کاله ژوند وکړم. که زه په هغه توره شپه وژل شوې وم، نو زما مړی به د ښار په کومه  #کنډواله  کې پروت و او څو ورځې وروسته به پولیسو ته ځان سره بولې وې تر څو زما د  #جسد  و پېژنې او په هم هغه ساعت به تا ته دا هم ویل شوي و چې په لور دې  #جنسي_تېری  هم شوی و. قاتل او جنسي تېری کوونکی به کله هم نه و پېژندل شوی ځکه چې موږ نه د هغوی د پیسو او نه هم د هغوی د ځواک برابري کولی شو. هغه نه وروسته به تا له شرم او ځور نه ډک ژوند تېراوه او څو کاله وروسته به غم او ځور وژلې وای او په دې توګه به کیسه تمامه وه. مګر زما هغه یو وار ټوله کیسه بدله کړه. زما جسد په کوڅه کې وا نه چول شو بلکه زه یې د قبر په شان زندان کې واچولم. دا هر څه د قسمت لوبه وګڼه او ګیله مه کوه. ريحانه جباري په عدالت کي د مقدمي د اورولو پر محال زما مهربانې  #مورې ، ګرانې  #صالحی ، ما ته د خپل ځان نه ګرانې! زه نه غواړم چې زما بدن دې خاورې خوسا کړي. زه نه غواړم چې زما سترګې او زما ځوا...

يوه ورځ او فرهاد دريا

لونگ: يوه ورځ او فرهاد دريا هميم جلالزی افغان ورځپاڼه ليکونکی فرهاد دريا چې اورم او يا يې مخامخ وينم، د نوييمې لسيزې وروستي کلونه را په زړه کوي فرهاد دريا پر خپله فېسبوک پاڼه ليکلي چې ۱۳۹۳ کال د دۀ د عاشقانه سندرو کال دی. پيل يې د غفور لېوال پر يوه نظم کړی چې (يوه ورځ) نومېږي. فرهاد دريا وايي دا يې تر هغو ټولو هغو پښتو عاشقانه سندرو ښکلې ده چې تر اوسه يې ويلې دي. د نظم کرکټرونه د کابل د زاړه ښار دوه مينان دي. د دوی دردوونکې کيسه ښاغلي لېوال نظم کړې ده او کمال يې دا کړی دی چې په يوۀ کوچني نظم کې يې يو لوی ژوند ځای کړی دی. د دغو دوو مينانو د ژوندانه سفر يې له پيله تر پايه تعقيب کړی او د خپل خيال په زور يې هومره زړه راښکون په کې اچولی دی چې هر مين په کې خپل خان لیدای شي. د موسيقۍ قحط: د ماشومتوب او زلميتوب تر منځ کلونه و. په افغانستان کې د طالبانو واکمني وه. په موسيقي باندې بنديز هومره جدي و چې تر بنديخانې پورې تګ ورسره تړلی و. خلکو به پټې پټې سندرې اورېدې. تر ټولو لويه تفريح نړيوالې راډيوګانې وي چې په منځنيو او لنډو څپو به اورېدل کېد...
