Ms. Minhas!

Unfortunately, the Freedom is not FREE. All the freedom that you are exercising now and all that you yearn for comes with a price. Someone keeps awake at night at the border to give you ``A dreamer’s utopia in Pakistan Itself``, as you put it.

A simple word ``THANK YOU`` for a Jawan who died for you will help you control your bile.

Shandy:

Sheema and Khalid deserve a separate article by themselves.

I would add Edhi to the list and institutions like LUMS and Citizen`s Foundation to the list as well.

And unless you are writing about the great mughal miniature artist who was not a writer -- Chughtai was the first lady of Urdu fiction from India.

Speaking of India, congrats for the first effort `there` and all the good comments :)

love,

temporal
