The Dream

RE: Fairdinkum # 8

On the contrary I was gloomy after reading Shandana`s piece when this one came as a comic releif.

But I would recommend that pick up any Urdu magazine and open the BehnoN ki Mehfil section and read this piece there. Just pick anyone of `em.

This ones sure left me sad and gloomy..

guess we need some relaxing,motivating and hilarious ones now...soon...

cheers.

temporal (with a small `t`)...the theme of the story is true ... it haunted me for months before i wrote it out as a fictional story.

zahra ..scout... i`ll make sure my next posting is optimistic ..lets brush the problems under the rug...;)

urstruly,
I haven`t read the piece yet...should I?
From the responses, I get the impression that it is gloomy...
I feel a little positive after reading Shandana`s piece, and I don`t want to feel gloomy this week.
Just say yes or no....

Regards,
Fairdinkum

sadly, impotently, arrogantly bigoted

depressing.... I need a dose of positive emotion now.

Temporal, Fairdinkum, I give up.

Every time I read this writer(which I have done twice), I feel like suggesting her/him to come out of their world of melancholy. The writer`s points are a constant repeat, nothing new. Bringing up issues/problems does not assist in resolving them. Coming up with a route/an alternative/a solution to resolve them is far more effective. Probably the writer needs to develop, an optimistic thinking pattern or the eyes to visualize, ``to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction`` myth. In other words, ``To every problem there is a solution.`` How you implement or excercise is the real test! I`ll look forward to reading something that is a solution to the issues the writer has been raising than another fictional piece.
[The reader can be enlightened on the current affairs/fiascos by CNN/BBC or other channels, but the reader will not see those channels working on finding solutions to ``our`` problems. Something to keep in mind.]

In the meanwhile, I`d like to propose an antidote:

Zeenat:

I winced at the awful formatting!

(Chowk Editors: Can it still be fixed?)



Another story in the finest traditions of Islamic heritage perceived and vociferously practised in the land of the believers!

The only redeeming feature perhaps was the ending --- agonising and painful as it was, it was short unlike Saima Sarwar/Imran`s.

Let`s do the ablutions for the namaz-e-janaza to be followed by the prayers for the heavenly ensconcement of the grateful and ungrateful dead.

sadly, impotently,
