Friendship, what is it? is it something short term with little significance or contrary? In my view friendship should be something based on long term relationship; a relation that involves expressing yourself, your feelings easily, a relation that has honesty,selflessness, trust mutual understanding, compassion and never having to fear the judgment. These are the traits that most of friendships lack today, that my friendship lacked with someone and is the reason for me writing this article. 

Some people assume that the pillar of friendship is how much gifts you share, how much interests you have in common or things like that but what they forget to themselves is what is their role in making the relation strong? In my opinion friendship really is about reciprocation, its not just about what you want but what the other person wants from the relation? WE just expect our friends to be their for US no matter what? we expect them to be perfect  always and in doing so loose a relation that otherwise would have been a blessing for us. At least that is what happened to me!

Friendships should be free of greed, self interest and they should be above all Reciprocal, only this way we will be able to nourish and sustain our Friendship. Furthermore true friendship free of greed and selflessness results in paying dividends to which monetary riches can not be compared in any way. Most of the times reasons for the friendships ending are mistakes and misunderstandings. Speaking from personal experience, I regret all the factors that were involved in finishing a perfect Friendship and I hope my Readers here will not make the same mistake; just give some space to your friends for making mistakes, they are human too. 

According to modern studies especially those pertaining to sociology have termed Friendship to be the most important relationship in ones life, a relation that helps him/her get through life with ease, A true Friendship should never be allowed to end as it revitalizes our life and takes it to a whole new level!

Music found its importance in my life after very long almost when my teen years were over, but once i started listening to music it really gave me something to believe in. Something that i could turn to when all else seemed too dark! .. I never looked at music from a musicians point of view but still I do share all the sentiments involved. Everyone has different taste in music and for me country music is most appealing because it is so pure and natural. Other then country I like to listen to Classical Rock and blues. 

People find it hard to believe that everything in life follows the same rhythms as in music, maybe that's what makes them despise musicals so much they simply view them to be something gayish to watch. but that's where they are wrong all these musicals take a generic sentiments faced by almost everyone in their lives and depict them so well. ''Music can change World Because it can change People'' that is what I believe. 

GLEE Lost real talent to substance abuse !

The most important thing about music for me is the new view on life that I developed as a result of listening to music, The philosophy it incorporates into your meaningless life to strive for something above yourself. Its just amazing to see music affecting you in ways you never thought possible, It really gives your life a direction,  pointing towards right direction. So all in all what music i listen to, those different sounds and words that depict ideas and opinions make me who I am. 

Music is a key to life it may bring out positive in many but on the other hand it can turn people to act negatively, the change is inevitable and music keeps changing all the same but the basic sentiments and emotions involved will remain same. For me Music will  remain the constant that embodies the emotions and life so perfectly, a rhythm of life that lends a helping hand when you fall!

There are very few movies that are perfect in every sense, everything seems to be carried out in a best way possible. Reluctant Fundamentalist is one such movie with exceptional direction, acting, cinematography and most of all the music. The movie is based on the novel with same title by Mohsin Hamid. Director Mira Nair has made a brilliant piece of art as always, it's almost is a thriller having notion of suspense. The movie bolts up int its plot to a climax in huge flashes, exceptional moments brought together along with that music in zeal of expertise by Nair.

U.S Secretary of state in talks with President Mahmoud Abbas to reopen Peace negotiations with Israel.

The holy land of Jerusalem and other Palestinian land all round it has always been the source of conflict between Jews, Christians and Muslims. For centuries it was ruled by Holy Roman Emperors followed by Muslim rule and now in the present time most of the Holy Land is under the Jews i.e Israel. Israel has always been on defensive right from the start of its existence, always fearing attacks from its neighbors and forming preemptive Strategies. It was in 1967 that Israel got recognized as a real force in the region when it occupied major portions of land from its neighbors as a result of war.

There has been efforts to bolster reconciliation between Palestinians and Israelis time and again but were always ended without any positive results. Once again USA as mediator has sent U.S Secretary of State John Kerry to the middle east in latest efforts to restart the Peace negotiations between the two rival parties i.e PLO and Israeli Government. The spectators of the show are now getting tired of these on and off talks that always get ended without any breakthroughs. Everyone that is a stakeholder to these talks knows that the talks will bear nothing because Palestinians will never accept Israel as a Jewish state in Arab lands while Israelis will not recognize any Palestinian State plus no matter the significance of any talks they will never stop building new Settlements, roads and security walls.

Israel with US at its back, helping it with military and economic aid has established its foothold in terms of economy and military in the middlemost and maintains nuclear monopoly to this very day. The ruling party and all other Rightist in Israel will never agree to define their borders as those before 1967 and lets be honest why should they do so when they clearly know that even if they allow the formation of a free Palestinian state under PLO, it will still be under their protection. PLO is not the same organization it used to be under Yasir Arafat, after his assassination PLO has bent allot towards USA and Israel. !  

Its not about being famed globally but doing something  bigger then yourself, something that adds greater meaning to your life that makes you truly important. Malala Yousafzai is that person, 16 years old girl who stood for girls right to education with courage. She showed the world that what real bravery is by standing tall to a group of Insurgents who had banned girls from getting education. There are very few people round the globe who have courage to do so and that's what makes them special and brings fame to them not the other way round.

Malala long before her assassination attempt at the age of 12 started writing Blog for BBC's Urdu service. It was right after New York Times documentary on her life that she rose to prominence and started giving interviews..Malala has been hounded with Pakistan's National Youth Peace Prize Award and has been nominated for the International Children's Peace Prize and Nobel Peace Prize. Along with many other honors she got the honor of having her name added to ''the 100 most influential people in the World'' and her name being featured on the cover of Times Magazine.

Are there any diplomatic Complexities in Edward Snowden's Asylum request ?

In light of all these achievements and let me say here all these achievements as a consequence of her brave stand Against Taliban, i seriously don't know why will anyone label her as a traitor and write conspiracy theories against her. I seriously Doubt that she is some agent trying to promote some foreign propaganda, i mean alright it may be possible that her campaign may be used against Pakistan but there simply are no grounds to level accusations against a innocent girl who got shot in the head for standing against a militant faction of the society. It is not fair to project Malala as working against Pakistan and Islam keeping in view that she has not displayed through any of her actions at any single International platform yet.

A question that all of us should ask ourselves is what is Malala's Crime ? is it that she raised voice for Education ? or is it because she refused to cave in to militants as majority of people do ? Keeping in view the first verses of Quran that clearly direct Muslims to learn reading and writing, these questions should not be hard to answer.  

In the previous few years many official documents pertaining to different governments or other state institutions have been leaked by individuals working alone or by organizations like Wiki leaks. Every time classified official document are disclosed the whistle blowers are branded as a traitor or a spy who wants to harm the national interests of the country in focus.

Edward Joseph Snowden is one such example, a former american technical contractor at NSA(National Security Agency) and a former CIA employee. Snowden branded as traitor by some is responsible for leaking information relevant to various highly classified Surveillance programs of US and UK Governments, PRISM and Tempora being one of them. So naturally as expected Snowden was charged with espinoge and stealing of Government's property in United States of America. Question that one should ask , Is Snowden a whistle blower or a traitor ?

Are there any Diplomatic Complexities in Edward Snowden's Asylum Request?

No matter whether in the end he appears to be a traitor or a Whistle blower, either way he will still get prosecuted in US. Right now Mr. Snowden's top priority is to get asylum somewhere safe. He requested asylum from many countries himself, at the present moment he is stranded in Russia waiting for a reaction from Russian government to his asylum request. In my opinion he should not be treated as a traitor and dealt with under America's World war I espinoge act, I mean after all its not like US is at war in that old way, World has changed its Internets era. Snowden must be treated as a whistle blower if he ever appears before court in US. 

I for one am going to congratulate Mr. Snowden for the disclosure, it is not because of his success at all the popularity he has gained but because i do know and believe that it must have been a very hard and tough choice to go public about all those surveillance programs. Knowing that one will be most likely branded as a traitor to his country and prosecuted for that but still doing the right thing with going public that really dose make Edward Snowden a hero to me!
