Being a content writer, I usually opt social issues to write up on. Why social? There is an enormous reason behind it. Since, from beginning of world, people interact and when two persons build network, they share their glitches and then one by one gossips widely spread in locality. As much as people are growing globally (i.e., population), their chinwags on their needs are also enlarging. By and by, things are moving towards at worsening situation and social issues have vastly been reached at their peak.

Meanwhile, when there are several hardships in society, few in all are also content with what they have. These are never complaining people and according to ancient people, these people maintain peaceful society. Certainly, these people have some courage, selflessness, patience and devotion for maintaining peace and not complaining about their single need. These are those worriers, who despite of their needs, fight for others. They endeavour to spend their lives for prosperity and development of others. In today’s article, will put some light on this creature of nature as well.

We all are aware of fact that worldly life is full of uncertainty which is quite visible through circumstances of Pakistan which are fluctuating on daily basis. What are we going to discuss in future? Had we ever thought about it? Will we be telling stories of these crises to our new generation? About complete uncertainty that there was a time when life was cheaper than having food, fuel and other necessary thing? Daily consumption items were sky rocketing with speed of light. Even, level of uncertainty could be measured that prime ministers can be exchanged over night!

According to my observation, we have spoiled our last three years. First, we had worst Covid situation, where economy faced hardship and it did not only affect people of Pakistan but also whole globe badly. However, people of Pakistan survived and gratified. Then, our country was bombarded by anti-encroachment campaigns which subsequently resulted in destruction and devastation only and nothing new was found. Well! Surprisingly people again survived. After back-to-back hit, people in 2022 confronted a new issue that is extreme level of dearness. Overnight hike in petrol price from Rs.150 to Rs 210, CNG from Rs 180 to Rs 300, edible oil from Rs 350 to Rs 600 and continued. Number of imported items were banned, rise in national debts, surge in crime rates, snatching, death rate and things did not settle here, every day latest news are also heard about fire eruption in different cities of Pakistan.  

Meanwhile, on contrary, politicians are kept busy in enjoying luxurious life. Without a shadow of a doubt! It is an alarming situation, keeping those who are always thankful and content aside, let’s talk about common people. Just because of this trending dearness and struggling life, majority of “patriotic” persons are compelled to move aboard. Those who can afford or those who have some skills or who are educated are readily endeavoring to fly to their foreign destination leaving contrary behind! While natives are also extorted to move their mindset into slavery. Yes! Slavery of non-Muslims.

Elaborately, one thing I personally noticed; some days earlier, people in these situations would prefer old British government rather than present one. People of Pakistan are now buried into grave of dearness and high inflation so that they have lost their ability to think and revive. Here, I would like to highlight some queries regarding present state of Pakistan.  As nobody thinks that who is going to suffer this loss? You? Me? No! We all are not even ready to think about our future generation! What we have got from our ancestors, and what we are going to provide our offspring!

Our leader Muhammad Ali Jinnah along with his devoted team provided us this land of pure and thought us three magical words, unity, faith and discipline. But who cares? Who is going to opt these guiding principles of life? From top to bottom, everyone is complaining except few.

We understand that situation is going to be worst in near future. Perhaps more resistance people will be facing in their every walk of life, but then again, we have one power, power of Almighty Allah which can never be forgotten. Those who are content in any situation of life, possess ability to feel power of God. Keeping those in mind, let us ponder about our future. Despite of being gloomy, worried and disturbed, we shall together try to work for our society, our country and our bright future. We need to join hands together and stand for our country. Beginning from our homes by creating harmony and peace by avoiding hindrances and sharing burdens of each other.

In current scenario, people don’t have energy to bear or suffer more crises because they are so weary with their issues and their issues may even create mistrust and stop up their relationship with Lord. There’s so much pain inside that it’s so hard to focus their attention on Lord. Even if you are struggling with something as scary as suicide, prayer can help. Turning to God helps because in our weakness, He is strong. When you don’t have the strength to press on, He will be your strength.

Historically, it has been proven that when Muslims bind themselves together, and hold rope of Almighty God, they can defeat every worsening situation of life. We had history of hardship and destitution but then we survived, recovered and even victorious. Similarly, Pakistani nation has suffered chaos, anguish and pain and yet it is still alive and surviving despite diseases it has been plagued with. In this defeating situation, where everyone is losing hope, we must remember our forefathers sacrifices they born for this homeland and don’t lose hope!
