Writing Challenge: My Eponym

2347024264?profile=originalWe have a new vocabulary reference section on EnglishClub:Eponyms. An eponym is a word (usually a noun) that comes from a person's name. The person may be real or fictional/mythological.

Many English words are eponyms. You probably know some of them, such as atlas, braille, and cardigan. This month, we're going to invent words based on our own names! Please join me in the fun.

Destructive sites

i think websites like Facebook and Twitter
it's damage our lifes
and many other websites
from this kind
we should stop
think when i want to know
some new people
add them on face
chat with them instead of phone or meet them
have fun by meeting them
and go out

if we still like that, we shouldn't blame any other one 

Just ourselves

Thanks Arif, Anah, Mishaikh, Humza and others who commented on my last blog with emotions, distorted factual comments and Arif with logic and reasoning. It has inspired me to write the next blog in the sequence of Pakistan's ideology as a nation. 

Arif, rightly said that Jinnah was a secular initially (which India is today), but wrong circumstances (as Jinnah perceived) made him communal and a hard line Muslim politician i.e not by will but because of Hindu domination he chose to convert into a m

Father's Death

 

Father’s Death

 

The moment I took that horrible great jump , I deployed death to swallow my father. Death, the giant black cobra, swallowed him secretly but slowly , bit by bit.

What you call loving to your children and family ?

What you call if a man have just space in his heart for his family ? not another woman ! not another love! 

Not anyone come to his heart … even if his wife is sick , even if she cant do the sexual relationship and even simplest thing in the life , or emotion relationship !

What you call if a woman has a ill husband and endure his situation .. take him of the ground and take him to the bathroom and wash him … even he lose his tongue !

Final outcaome, you still have to

Work piece by piece.

You are doing in order to finish.
