My sister called me yesterday from Pakistan and gave me a California phone number and asked me to give “Moral Support” to a thirty year old man (her friends brother).
a: I am an immoral man. I have no morals
b: I was brought up with “God help those, those who help themelves”
What should I tell this thirty year “old child”?
Should I tell him “oiy marad bun”.
And tell him what? grow up, hang in there, Allah acha karsi etc. I mean if a 30 year old male cannot function in todays society maybe he doesnt have a right to exist. I have never come across a male seeking moral support at age 30. I could understand seeking support up till age 18 but after that face the world like a man or crawl back where you came from.
Anyway let me call this 30 year old baby and hear his issues.
OK I spoke with him.
Interesting dilemma, but what was fascinating was that I had to speak with his mother first and hear his saga from his mother. In the midst of her yapping I cut her and asked to speak with the victim(the son), so I could hear it from the horses mouth.
Same old story
green-card, paper marriage
chacha ki larki, khala ka larka
nokri kahan melay gee
meera puppo
bhar meh jai mera behen ki larki
merra puppoo, lul fakir
pandra saal bari thi larki
haram zaadi meray puppo ki jaan choRay
So I listened and told the guy to get a lawyer and wished him luck.
