I know, I'm so depressed.

Dear God please protect my homeland.

The places I have so many childhood memories associated with are being blown up, I love Islamabad and Peshawar, my favouritest place, I have so many memories of chilling there with my mates and cousins, the food, the awaragardi on the streets, i miss it teribly, i get so naustalgic thinking about it, I get so scared incase its never the same again..

Swat is burning, such a beautiful place, so many family picnics there...

Our home is up in flames and all we can do is watch on helplessly.

War is terrible. I miss the times before Sept. 11. I remember when it happened, I was a kid and somebody on here said everything will be back to normal soon but it's not it's getting worse n worse.

When these things were happening in Iraq I'd think 'God it must be awful having to live in constant fear' and now our own towns and cities are being destroyed.

I get sooo depressed sometimes, Allah knows what the future holds for us, Islamophobia is increasing day by day in the west and our country of origin is being blasted to bits... Where do we go?
