Ode to My beloved friend

O, my dear friend! since you left me, you have made unimaginable pain my lifelong companion. Your separation has dug my heart and planted the everlasting painful flower in my heart. As time lapses, this flower will grow larger and larger. As a result, the pain will be getting more and more. And I have become so emotional that even in pareidolia, I see you.

The day on which your innocent soul decided to depart from the painstaking world, my life's glory was hovering above the altar. While I was relishing and indulging in my life's best moments, your separation snatched all worldly pleasures from me. When I came to know that relentless and ultimate friend of us, death, had decided to hug you with an everlasting hug, I became a miserable falcon who was drowning in his own tears. Moreover, your friend's life has become like autumn, colorless and pale. And his glory will never ever be flourished even in spring because your separation has rooted out him.

 After all, o people of this glamorous world! hail my beloved friend with euphonious sound and say to him that Ashfaque will always lay a wreath of his emotions on your grave and that wreath's smell will be greater than that of musk. And finally, say to my beloved friend that Ashfaque cherishes your memories happily like an old man who is interested in telling his accounts of life, and Ashfaque will always share your memory in painful ode...

Myth of Freelancing | Opinion

Freelancing is very easy, and you can be your own boss. You can do whatever, whenever, and wherever. You may have heard these lines very often. In my opinion however, these are flawed lines and are used only to develop interest and have nothing to do with freelancing in reality. Almost all experienced freelancers would suggest you : stick to only one skill set. So that you can focus on your expertise and provide greater value. But I will somehow disagree with them because what they are saying may be quite right, but only for their own level. They rarely understand or speak on beginner’s level. The level that they are at, has much freelance work, and has a team of their own. So, they are not facing the same problems as the beginners. As a matter of fact, there are many complexities as you start your journey at freelancing as a beginner. Not only you need to be patient, which is said by almost everybody, but also you need to have enough time, enthusiasm and sometimes little i...

Embrace Equity International Women’s Day is an important event celebrated annually worldwide, honoring the contributions and achievements of women. This year's theme, "Embrace Equity," highlights the need for gender equality, particularly in Pakistan, where women face a myriad of challenges daily. In this article, we'll discuss the struggles of Pakistani women, the progress made so far, and how embracing equity can help promote gender equality.   Pakistan is a country where patriarchal norms dominate society, and women are often viewed as second-class citizens.

Women in Pakistan are disproportionately affected by poverty, with limited access to education, healthcare, and employment opportunities.   In recent years, there have been positive changes in Pakistan regarding women's rights. The government has t...

Paper Discussion Throughout my whole academic career, I had a negative attitude towards paper discussion i.e. I got irritated every time whenever I saw my friends discussing paper. However, it is until recently that I realized the potential benefit of paper discussion. What is paper discussion? When I say paper discussion, I mean discussion of paper i.e. exam pape r just before as well as just after the exam. Before the start of an exam, students usually discuss about important points regarding exam, or even chances of a particular question. After the end of exam, students usually discuss the answers.
