This is not us!


This is how the world sees us


But this is not us!



The world sees Pakistan as the most dangerous place on earth



But this is not Pakistan




We are Free



We are Spiritual



We are Patriotic



But This is not who we are





We love Colour



We love Cricket!



We Love Music



We Love to Dance




We love to Smile




But this is not what we love!




We are Talented




We are Fearless....



....and Beautiful




We are Quirky



We are full of Life





But this is not the life we want


We are Vibrant



We are Diverse


We are Proud of our Heritage





We are Young and Alive



We are not Cowards


We are not Killers



This is not the face of Pakistan




This is the face of Pakistan




We are Praying


to be seen for what we are

to live as that which we are,

Free, Young and full of Promise

This is beautiful. We know that "this is not you." This wave of violent extremism will pass -- I am sure that it well. Keep on blogging!
