The Games
“Between the heart and mirror is this single difference, The heart conceals secrets while the mirror does not.” Rumi We see people hanging out together, playing in the same flight, and sitting on the same tables.

Rocking on the High Rocks
On a pleasant April morning, the traffic was virtually nonexistent on the Murree Expressway. The post-dawn air was crisp and the beauty of the weather was worth the uphill journey. I was quietly anticipating a great round at Chinar Golf Club. The road briskly snaked through the mountains crossing all hurdles smoothly. I cruised inContinue reading “Rocking on the High Rocks”
Short of Perfection
“And still after all this time, the sun never says to earth, “You owe me.” Look what happens with a love like that, It lights the whole sky.” Hafiz Everybody on this Earth looks for a purpose.
