Re: Pakistan

You love that place and now is a pardesi? Thats what i get :bummer:

Re: Pakistan

On the other hand, maybe being pardesi is better than mohajar(sp?) .

Re: Pakistan

Its not about being Pardesi or being Mohajir. Its about owning your country. For me Pakistan is everything. Its my identity wherever I live.

Re: Pakistan

Mohajer ?

Re: Pakistan

my identity, my home, my everything.

So much so that even though it's current halaat are deplorable...I would still love to go back there any moment.

A land my forefathers struggled for, sacrificed for, and loved...and a land that is increasingly becoming distanced and estranged to me and most likely will be a stranger to my kids.

Re: Pakistan

This!

Re: Pakistan

A land where a copy of the Quran costs 650 rupees. But in any case i came closer to Islam in Pakistan. :) A very spiritual place indeed.

Re: Pakistan

It's Home. It's where my heart and soul is. You cant ever take away my love for Pakistan from within me :).

Re: Pakistan

Pakistan is everything I feel, but do not have the words to describe. It is everything you feel, but cannot describe in words.

Re: Pakistan

Even though our family left Lahore in 1920's when it was still India, as a family we have never been back, but Pakistan means everything to us as a family. We identify by it. Pakistan is my land, my country and with all its fault I love it.

Re: Pakistan

home.

Re: Pakistan

I do it better than all that have spoken. Maanou yaa naa maanou. :D

Re: Pakistan

To me, Pakistan is:

where my grandparents started a new life after losing all they had in Mother India

where parents fell in love and got married

....and then left to start there life in a foreign land far away

where i spent my summers sneaking up to the rooftops with my cousins enjoying "cold coffee" at ungodly hours of the night

where my husband grew up, and where my in laws call home, thus allowing me to continue my love affair with all things "Karachi"

where my father returned to settle, after 30+ yrs of living in the US.....

and.......where my father took his last breaths and was layed to rest

Re: Pakistan

A country to which my ancestors belonged.

A country without which international pages of newspaper cannot be completed.

A country with with my family members fought for the longest time.

A country without which bollywood movies are incomplete:D

A country with which we have disagreement on every issue

And only country which is similar to us.

Re: Pakistan
