Dear Ms. Rizvi (or Zehra, if it is okay with you):

I am really glad that you have moved on with your life (by comparing your current thoughts with those that you narrated in one of your (post 9/11) 2001 articles) and by getting involved in doing something so positive. I am absolutely sure that you will make a big difference to change the lives of some people on that side of the world. I am also sure that the change won`t be one-sided.

If you still have that smoking problem (as indicated in your author intro) you should really do something about it! (If ``that stuff could kill you`` does not work, how about this: ``you will be setting a bad role model for some of those young minds``?

Good luck and all the best to you!
