My Most Memorable Journey

Saman:

Wow, touching.

I do not have words to describe the feeling.

Saman, a great and wonderful read. So many questions...begging to be asked.

Why did you end it?

Beautiful. The journey continues, and I hope that Surraiiya Bi is healthy and strong to make a lot more trips like that to proudly introduce her grandkids (hopefully with washed faces this time) to their great aunts and uncles and cousins.

Loved it.

Those Indians attacked and finish of story when they knew they are from Pakistan. and story begins again.
Arjun and Laddu were were watching.
Eternal cycles and journeys.Same Pathos journey from nothing to nothing.
When you finish once go back and think about yourself what happens.

Really nice Saman but I have one complaint...it was far too short! Can we have a part 2 please?! :-)

saman, great article and its good that you stopped where you stopped. The harami hingbuze would have done your ma-behen eik if you had continued insulting their Bharat mata by describing the poverty, filth and human misery that you saw there.

BTW, did you notice the Apple iMac tucked in the dhoti of the rickshaw puller, you baised Pakistani!

Pakis yaaron, just give up your stupid enmity with india.....we know you guys love india in spite of all your nautanki of pretend hatred....just say it aloud and be done with it......it will be quite liberating.... :-)

Absolutely intriguing and captivating! No wonder that was the most memorable journey for it has got every element of excitement, fascination, yearning and sentiment.

well i think the easiest way to write a content without anybody criticising and every body accepting warmly is ....write any thing about your mother. with due respect I dont think there is any creativity in this article.

I like the stories with happy endings. All of you came back alive; what more one could ask.

Two shortest stories told for long time from ages.
Story No.1-----He asked her to marry as he loves her she said no, then both went home and lived happily for all life.
Story No2...... He asked her to marry she said why ? But she did and both lived unhappily.

One can change outcomes and all good stories.

Indeed a memorable one. Well you have not mentioned much about the place. It seemed kind of short. I want to know more about that place 'Brailley'. How was it? Did you tour more? any other places you remember visiting beside your Mom's birth place. I soooooo .......want to go to India visit my parents's birth place and lot more. Its so bad Pakistani govt. issues visa with a condition to visit any and only three cities of India. And I on the contrary have a huge list of wonderful places to see in India. I need to have multiple visits to satiate my exploration of India.
I did not understand this sentence, I mean the security guard part was fine but why the color of sky? Was it different on the other side of Wahga?
"But everything looked the same except for the color of the sky or the security guards posted on both sides of the border."

Re: # 13 I respect all . But why this death wish to visit INDIA. Why not our spiritual lands of from where we got elevated from Hindus for better folks , like iran, arab lands, iraq. There is some magic in India but its evil magic. Now for good of every body two nations separated. We are looking towards north and west so please develop interest interest in iran, iraq, afghanistan iran our brother sister countries even our great friend china but why India. French and german look white but they are different nations and people same india and pk look same but its different. Like horse and cow are of same color but they are distinct. Same way two races are different. We should repect our ways and their ways they can not coexist that is reason lead to worlds big slaughter in Punjab and bengal and bangla desh. Even religion can not overcome differences in Ummah. Like iranian is different than iraqi as blood different though they look pale allsemi white. Even people can not overcome race difference after great migration of MQM from India . They are different and better than locals ,though dark but little cut above ib brain power so all trouble. Its all air water and water. Indian water is different same about air. Indians have no sense this hindus have elected 1st freely elected communists and hindu nation has gone communist nepal.Muslims will never accept secularism ans socialism which is is anthema to our mental millue and and ethos. In fact worlod will note if nothing about pakistan but it willbe in golden letters that this state destroyed first socialist republics. To show toomuch curisity is to accept they are better , you should study works by YLH etc to understand Indian democracy is big farce by Indian elites. Familarity willbig problems.NOw all even military people listen to indin movies do you think can army fed on Indian music can fight for Liberation of Kasmir.No all corroupts have just gathered at I-Bad as vultures to pick up contracts and no body giv es damn about Kashmir but all about contracts and just making moneis at any cost. It like oncve man woman devorced they have to forget and move ahead same way we shyould shun India in general and particular. Now parents left India as they felt that land is not worth living their then when children want to go back toindia is insult to them and their ways. In our culture we donot tell parents to shut but ingnore and ambigious but never insult.
Can you explain all this obsession with India. Many even highly educated , foreign living have criticised life style and indian ways.
I request you tokeep india out of sight and soon out of sight except Kashmir let that burn people hearts with patriotism.
Let us say farewell to india and soon India will not be there with all problems going there specially shortage of food.
No point in too much be sentimentalist about gone old stories. Pakistanis should fly like eagle without any reference free of indian gravity. Then only we can sour and feel better at high level than Indian elemental lowy things interest. Unless "indian" is taken out of Pakistani concious it will at as appendix of India and that slavish mentality when pathetic people in europe etc pakistans give name to restaurant as Indian restaraunt and sell alcoholto make money. Money and greed and dreaming of wealth is making us india centris. Why not join rich and rising or aleardy rich and reached their countries like china, iran, saudi arabia. It really making boring of yawning of nostalgic indian percived memories. Better to visit europe than dark continet of south tip od asia india. rest fine. It has become hard to take out "india"of pakistani mind is national tragedy. Good evening and have great sleep. Good sleep should be like sleeping like dead.It feels so good when you have sleep like dead man . When you awake feel like young child. good luck ebverybody.
