That Blue Dove

thanks love2love....yeah chowk is notorious for the india-pak tension...and just to think that most desis here are educated and professionals..haha...I absolutely loved "kurat-ul-lain"....i am not sure how i would adapt it...i am not too much into remakes of love/romantic stories....but do give me ideas if you have any...

Thanks a1, no I haven't read it, is it good? It would be great if there is an online link available to the book....

Agreed Sunil and yes we do not all think the same....some of us are able to outgrow the prejudices and biases while some still believe the noble lies.

Thanks Bitter...

You asked "By insanity and hatred, do you mean the US-waged War on Terror to carry out the neo-liberal policies?

And...

"...or become part of the crusade that reduces suffering, seeking peace and ensuing it."

Are you refering to Resistence that is being done against War on Terror?

Let me know if I have understood your analogy right."

Kindly do not get me involved in the politics of things. People in power have no God, no religion. If the Arab leaders, Americans and the Israeli leaders want they can solve the conflict in two days. Same goes for Kashmir conflict and oh well the conflicts anywhere in the world....

Its pathetic that innocent people have to die like that, just to cater to the need of the rich and the powerful...

very well done, Sana. A refreshing break from all the politics and I hate India/Pakistan thingie that goes round here. An interesting idea to adapt Ashfaq sahib's evergreen PTV classic. Now how about doing the same with the Aik Haqeeqat series finest play, "Kurat-ul-Aain." :)

Hi Sana,
Welcome to chowk!nice article.
tell me if u or anyone on chowk has read ashfaq ahmad's latest, Baba Sahiba?

"--------------we all laugh the same,cry the same,hurt the same, and love the same" But do we all think the same?? Obviously not be" that is the difference between humans and animals.Even between humans some peoples thinking is caged by what so and so said 1400 years ago and further to that they want to impose their thinking and coclusions on others by any means, by hook or by crook.Now this has become main source of conflict in the world. Those with far better thinking power generally do not try to impose their way of thinking on others but they have to react when people with limited thinking power try to impose themselves

Sana

Beautiful story. Thank you. :)

I just want to ask....

"We have the choice to either become part of the crusade that perpetuates hatred and insanity..."

By insanity and hatred, do you mean the US-waged War on Terror to carry out the neo-liberal policies?

And...

"...or become part of the crusade that reduces suffering, seeking peace and ensuing it."

Are you refering to Resistence that is being done against War on Terror?

Let me know if I have understood your analogy right.
