To Whom it May Concern


It was a cowardly attack, we will punish so and so’

The incident is deeply regretted, I share my deepest condolences to all the families who lost their loved ones

I condemn terrorist attacks

One of the major job done, issued press statements. Now lets go back to our normal lives, its business as usual.

Few days passed and everyone will forget and move on, news channels will stop reporting as the news is no more vibrant or raising TRPs. No more blood, no more crying or screaming women, no more dead bodies.

No action, No precaution, No special task forces, No accident management, No protection. And we all wait anxiously for another attack, for another suicide bombing. Alas... the cycle continues.

Nobody is bothered and we are all at the mercy of terrorists. We are safe not because we have perfect protection but we are safe only because terrorist have not targeted us as yet.

Army Public School’s incidents and earlier similar attacks are the dark moments of our country, and they are not taking place randomly. Something is not right, we are overlooking something, we are not paying attention.

We need to look carefully at the chain of events leading to this helplessness and painful incidents, utilize our protection resources intelligently, we need to really take a closer look on the security measures-identify the problems and solve it immediately.

There is no time to play politics or using intelligence resources on personal grudges.
It’s the time to wake up and do something about it, nothing happens without a reason. Look, identify and solve before any more damage is done.

Yours truly,

Sonya Syed. (Day 506)

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS): What It Actually Feels Like

Wow! It feels nice to be back to my favourite place in the world, my blog, my love. But today it seems that the world has rotated 360 degrees. As I was trying to figure out how to tap into this new world order I thought the best way is to ask my Higher Power to guide me through. And what a better way to do that, other than recite a prayer ‘Dua Istikhara’ a supplication used by Muslims to seek guidance from Allah before making a decision. If we just read the translation of this supplication: “O Allah, I seek guidance from Your knowledge and power and ask You from Your great bounty. Surely, you can do it, and I am not. You know, and I do not, and You are the Knower of the unseen. O Allah, if You know that this matter is good for me in my religion, life, and end, then decree it for me, make it easy, and bless it for me. But if You know that this matter is bad for me, in my religion, my existence, and my end, then turn it away from me and turn me away from it, and decree for me what is g...

3 January 2019

After fighting with an alien cat in my dream, I am awake at 1.30 am. It all is followed by a futile effort of building a sleep pattern of 9.30 pm to 6 am. Alas, not all wishes come true at once. No problem I will keep on working. Being a really smart gal I have messed up with my sleep-wake cycle long ago, and today when I accidentally opened Rujuta Diwekar’s video on cortisol on my facebook page- I realized what has been going on with me.  For all of you who are not aware that I am a distant relative of Kareena Kapoor Khan and Rujuta is the link who tied  Kareena and me  together. You all must be wondering why have I never discussed this earlier, why I took so long to disclose my bond with Kareena. Let me explain.   Rujuta Diwekar is a God’s blessing for all the fools like me who for some stranger reason believe(ed) that going on USA or UK-based diet programs would make us patla (thin/ lean). It was Rujuta’s eating desi ghee and daal sabzi ch...

Magic or Miracles..continued

"Sadia Saleem   Another good one...ur blogs have always uplifted my spirits in some way, but this one being totally different gives us a small grasp at just how powerful our Almighty is...our praises are just a measurement of our faith in Him and our worships are a manifestation of that measurement...ur blog actually took me in d flashbacks and I remembered when we actually landed up at a babas astana for d sake of fun...at times those carefree days are deeply missed       keep up the best work    " This one is especially for my best friend Sadia who has always shown me her love, appreciation and encouragement.
