This is supposed to be my travel blog. A few weeks back, I went to the Northern parts of Malaysia. I was writing about it for a while now. Then, a few tragic moments happened. The lost of innocent lives in Gaza and the downing of MH17. I lost interest in writing. Everything seems to be trivial and yet every trivial things seems to magnify.

It's like all the things I should have done differently. I should lived to the fullest all day long. I should try avoiding the self escapism and self pity. I s

Two weeks before, I have planed not to buy anything for this Eid, usually I do not like to buy cloths in any occasion, because in this time the price is more and you can't bargain with sellers, but when I have received the last month salary of my quitted job after four months, I can't help myself to spend a major portion of it for shopping.

Karachi, my birth place:

I was born in Karachi. I saw my childhood here, I educated here in this city from nursery to graduation. I got my first job and then others here.

My birth place, Karachi is the largest city, and the main seaport and financial centre of Pakistan, as well as the capital of the province of Sindh. The city has an estimated population of around 20 million. This is the most populous city in the country, one of the world's largest cities in terms of population and also the 10th l

I was born in China, so China is my homeland. Just as you know, China is a big Asian country with thousands of years of history. China, as one of the new emerging economies, has seen such a fast economic growth that it's now the second largest economy in the world, only second to the USA. China is still a developing country, though. Although China has made great progress in developing,  and even has succeeded in sending astronauts into space and a moon rover on the moon, and even topped the Olym

"Home sweet home!" This saying I find so true and if somebody uses it, on my mind is automatically my hometown, the city I can call without hesitation my heart issue.

I am proud of being Czech, I love my country and whenever I hear our anthem, it gives me nice inner feeling, which is for sure one of the proves of my patriotism. Sincerely, I dislike if people talk bad about my country and I am anytime and anywhere ready to fight for it and persuade them how wrong they are ( even though sometimes t

I was born in Nazareth, Israel. My grandpa said it was called Palestine before 1948 when another people came to our land and confiscate our lands. So I grow up thinking that I'm an Arab Palestinian citizen living in Israel. But, how do I have a blue passport? Which means that I'm an Israeli citizen I'm one person out of 20% Israeli Arabs. I live in Israel in a country which declared itself as a Jew country rather than a country for all its citizens. I live here but when I ride the bus with other

His name is Sunshine. What a pretty name!  Like the brightness that greets a solitary mountain…like a sunray that kisses a cold morning sky…like a light that cheers up a dark and gloomy day…like a friend that touches the heart of another…that brings warmth to those around him…that smiles to his heartaches…that bids goodbye to his loneliness. 

His name is Sunshine…yet I met him when he was alone and sad…when the wind was too strong and the rain was heavy…when his radiance wouldn’t shine through th

 I shifted into a new house with my parents. It was a first floor house with a nice verandah and a terrace. After all the unpacking of things,  we settled in  a few days.  Soon I realized that we were not the only occupants of that place; there was a couple too, a pair of sparrows.

How long the moon remains in eclipse? + remove the dark hair from your face.

I’m still sinless + put some blame upon me.

An ocean is calling + give it some water to quench.

Bid to translate from Urdu poem (Gazal)

My friend nida - one of our active members here on MyEC - just asked where all the blogs about Gaza are and if I have deleted all of them. I thanked her for asking and told her I didn't deleted the blogs. But I also told her that anything that may cause fights or hatred between MyEC members can be flaged or closed by the system, which means you can't see the blogs any more. 

I understand the subtlety of the situation in the Gaza Strip. I'm so sorry that so many lives there were lost. The question

Whether we like or not, China plays probably the most important role in India’s economic growth, military aspiration, diplomatic relations and influences the internal politics considerably. It’s the second largest trading partner of the India after UAE, and the main reason behind that made India’s largest importer of ammunition. Any discussion of India’s growth and development, without illustrating the role of China into it, is incomplete.

China’s knows very well that India has the largest demogr
