Yes I do! I do feel refreshed. I went to Malir Cantt last night to attend a Nikah (wedding) ceremony of one of my friends’ brother. The larki’s dad is in the Army and they had their house built inside that interesting area where I saw people were so concerned about security.

It was nice there as I met a person named Bilal who gave me good company while my friend (Ibad) was busy in other important things (guests se milna milana etc.)

I was not going to this daa’wat but it was my best buddy’s (Ibad) brother and I was especially invited in this family-only gathering. I think it’s a good habit to attend the parties you are invited to. Ibad would have been furious for sure had I not opted to go to this da’wat. I was not going because I had some work at home, but I’m glad I went there in the da’wat.

Talking about Malir Cantt, I didn’t feel great there. I was like ‘Man they’ve built such a big empire of their own!’. See, this feeling of calling the Army walas ‘they’ is so evident. I no more feel they are something close to us. I’m not 100% sure if I’m right though, but it seems so.

Bilal is a humble person and it was a pleasure to meet him. And I feel good that I did go in the Nikah. These parties are like the ‘Disk Cleanup’ utility I think!
