10 Million Dollar Shoe

They say, jay wela changa nahi reya tay wela perha vi nai renda. (if the good times didnt remain, bad will neither) But the sad story here is that the wela is perha today. The shoe went up in the air and aimed. It had hatred, it was worse then the atom bomb that fell on Hiroshima, the airplanes that crashed into the twin towers, the truck that smashed and exploded into Marriott islamabad, all those air strikes that killed six lac people in Iraq. Hence its not the weapon that matters, its the intentions that counts. This insult and humiliation might never let him sleep well for the rest of his life,

I guess for this moment Galib once said:

~bohat bay aabro ho ker teray koochay say hum niklay

Life moves and people forget what went wrong with them, sometimes they have to, sometimes they do. But what they never forget is what they did for others. God knows how pissed that gentleman was sitting there who knowingly that he might never be able to see the sunlight again did the act. Worse than a suicide bomb. Probably if the intentions of all the Talibans in this world becomes the same, this world might become a better place to live. From the looks of it, he seems like a decent moderate man, who probably didn't do it cuz one of his family member got killed, he probably did it as he knew the ground realities while filming the news across the country. I once heard this phrase in a movie, and that impressed me a lot. May be if we all understand what it means, we might be able to die contented one day. The phrase goes like:

Apnay jism per chot lagnay per tu kuta bhi bhonkta hai

Insaan wo hota hai jo kisi dosray kay dard ko mehsoos ker sakay

Translation: Even a dog barks if his body is being beaten. A human is the one who can feel someone Else's pain.

And I think he did it. But I am not saying all that to make that person a hero. What he did was probably ethically or morally not correct. As one day all these talibans might even start doing this to the people who they just want to humiliate. Just like they got the idea of suicide bombings from tamil tigers. Journalists, beware, you might have to sit bare feet next time you attend a press confrence :)

For all those to whom it may concern, we need to become human beings first, and then become muslims. As God made Qurran for human beings. It doesnt apply to animals, which I am sorry to say, many of us has become. If you think I am worng, please do apply that phrase of a "dog who barks" on yourself.
