Who is Colored ???
This poem was nominated by UN as the best poem of 2006, Written by an African Kid
When I born, I black
When I grow up, I black
When I go in Sun, I black
When I scared, I black
When I sick, I black
And when I die, I still black
And you white fellow
When you born, you pink
When you grow up, you white
When you go in sun, you red
When you cold, you blue
When you scared, you yellow
When you sick, you green
And when! You die , you gray
And you calling me colored?

LIFE.........!
We never get what we want,
We never want what we get,
We never have what we like,
We never Like what we have.
Still we Live
Still we Love
Still we hope
This is LIFE....!
***.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.*.***
When I got enough confidence - The stage was gone,
When I was sure of losing - I won
When I needed the people most - They left me
When I learned to dry my tears - I found a shoulder to cry on
When I mastered the skill of hating - Somebody started loving me
That's LIFE......!

Living 4 Others
Nothing in nature is 4 itself
- Rivers don't drink their own water
- Trees don't eat their own fruit
- Sun don't give heat 4 itself
- Flowers don't spread fragrance 4 themseleves.
LIVING 4 OTHERS IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE

Face UR Fears
I feared being alone untill I learned to like myself...
I feared failure untill I realized that I only fail when I don't try...
I feared rejection untill I learned to have faith in myself...
I feared pain untill I learned that it is neccessary for growth...
I feared the truth utill I saw the ugliness in lies...
I feared life untill I experienced it's beauty...
I feared death untill I realized that it is not an end, but a new beginning...

Dr. Afia (Pakistani Muslim Women) - Strip Search
(The abstract of this news item is taken from the daily "The News International" dated May 07' 2009, and it is in continuation of my blog entry of August 12' 2008)
Saga of Afia’s unending torment in NY jail
Thursday, May 07, 2009 By By Mariana Baabar
ISLAMABAD: In the New York Jail six masked men tied her hands behind her back, stripped her naked and made her video film. While being taken back to her cell in a wheelchair a woman covered her with a blanket and begged the masked men not to humiliate Dr Afia Siddiqui.
In response to a question about the nature of security checks, Dr Afia said many a times she was stripped for security check in the New York jail and due to that humiliation she even stopped seeing her lawyer. She despised being stripped for security checks.
This is the first hand report recently compiled by the Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Kashmir Affairs and Northern Areas on meeting with Dr Afia Siddiqui on October 7, 2008 at Carswell, Fort Worth, Texas, USA.
The meeting with Dr. Afia at Carswell, Fort Worth, Texas, last year was attended by Senator Mushahid Hussain Sayed, Senator S M Zafar, Senator Muhammad Talha Mahmood, Senator Ms Saadia Abbasi, Iftikhar Ullah Babar, secretary committee/additional secretary and Faqir Syed Asif Hussain, consular, Pakistan embassy, Washington DC. . . . . . .
. . . . In reply to a question by Senator S M Zafar as to what message she has for the people in Pakistan, she requested that Pakistan should not hand over its citizens to the US for interrogation. In Bagram she was physically tortured, however, the Afghans did not humiliate her. Her three children, two sons and a daughter (Ahmad, Suleman and Maryam) were taken away. She was told that her children would be returned only if she confessed to meetings with certain people. She however did not disclose the names of the said people to the delegation. She agreed and feared that this forced confession could go against her in Pakistan. She also feared that her third child, a son by the name of Suleman, might have been killed. She alleged that at Bagram one of the interrogators was an Indian, who was her contemporary at MIT and was interested in her research work.
