"If all you can do is crawl, start crawling." -Rumi

On The Move

 If I ever write an autobiography, this is is what it would be titled:

On The Move Since 1994

Born in Rawalpindi, I soon moved and journeyed to many places. My dad's the one who is always in for an adventure and mama wants us to be brave. So, yeaaah, we've been out a lot. Even then, we might have shifted homes and cities and countries because it was needed but we travelled because we wanted to. I can't imagine how it would be to live in just one city our entire lives. It must be amazing but then again discovering new places is even more fun. I love moving. I love travelling. But, know what, no matter what place one is at it's the people at that place that matter. They are the ones that make the city what it is for one.

November

November 2013, the month that turned it all around.

The winters, the love for coffee and baking cupcakes after eons.
The feelings as I pack for my hostel.
The realisation of the love I am surrounded with.
They say one turns over a new leaf, I say I jumped on to a new leaf and it started raining.
Not all rains are good, by the way. But, I love rain nonetheless ^_^
I've heard that snow's better than rain, I believe that to be true :D

Just because... :')

Crow Liner

Once in a while, there's this one line that takes up all the space in our heads. It roams and runs around, it rolls and jumps up high, until this line has become a part of us. 'Liner Doodles' is where I write those lines and create my own doodles for them, these lines are meant to be preserved.

A very disturbing picture made it to the front page of one of Pakistan's leading newspapers.

My Baba handed the newspaper to me in the morning, he's the one who got me into the habit of reading them. But, I closed my eyes. He made the Is-Everything-Ok-Question-Mark face. I explained that there's a picture I'd prefer not looking at on the front page. He laughed. And said,

"Have you heard of the crow who closes its eyes just before the cat is about to attack? Or, the ostrich that buries its head in the ground when a flood is approaching?"

Love you Baba <3

Star Liner

Once in a while, there's this one line that takes up all the space in our heads. It roams and runs around, it rolls and jumps up high, until this line has become a part of us. 'Liner Doodles' is where I write those lines and create my own doodles for them, these lines are meant to be preserved.

"You will put the 'star' in starting over and over." -Sarah Kay in her poem "B".

Gave Shape-Poetry a try :)

Sarah Kay's TED Talk is one of the best TED talks I've listened to. You can watch it here.
Yes, still no Youtube in Pakistan. I miss Youtube though.
