Facebook status quotes

Here are some of the best inspirational quotes which i found and used them as my facebook status. You always grow in difficult times. Your life may change, it may never be the same, but you learn more about yourself than at any other time in your life. If you think Adventure is Dangerous, try Routine. It is Lethal. The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires. Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid - Albert Einstein. There are many aspects to success; material wealth is only one component. But success also includes good health, energy and enthusiasm for life, fulfilling relationships, creative freedom, emotional and psychological stability, a sense of well-being, and peace of mind. I do my thing and you do yours. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations and you are not in this world to live up to mine. Aik

Winds of Change

The best and worst thing about life is that it keeps on changing. It is very true in my case. The last few changes in my life have been so erratic that I have lost my life in between them. My personal life has been a bit rough for the past 15 months since I left my home town. Setting up a new home in a new city twice with my family and managing all the stuff related to daily house life on my own were not easy tasks for me to do in the first instance. Including this with the financial hardships which I had to come across during this segment was very frustrating. And the wonderful people I came across during this phase were "sonay pe suhaga". I wasn't able to attend my friends' weddings. I was absent from family gatherings. My sister came from the UK, and I couldn't spend enough time with her. My parents, siblings, and relatives miss us, especially my nephew. I had to leave my health club. In some parts of my heart, there is a regret that I shouldn't have said

Amateurish

After a long time, I feel like writing something. But I don’t have anything specific in my mind right now. I think I have lost my ability to express myself in writing, which I shouldn’t have. I would try to re-develop it. So, for this time, do pardon me if I sound amateurish. This time, I'll just go at random and write down whatever comes to mind and heart right now.Let me start with today. Today I had a hectic morning. I woke up at 4:00 am, packed my stuff, changed clothes, and left. I had a quick breakfast and took out my car. I had to come to Islamabad from Lahore. For the past 2 nights, I haven’t slept enough. Yesterday, my niece got operated on, and I was busy in the hospital the whole day. And then, in the morning, I had to drive all the way from Lahore to Islamabad in my car, and it took around 4:30 hours to arrive. For the past six weeks, I have been following the same routine. Every Friday after work, I travel back to Lahore, and every Monday morning I travel back to Isla

Bye Bye 2010 - There is no Limit...

Another year has passed. And a new year is here. When I look back, I have mixed feelings about the year 2010. In 2010, my life had changed altogether. I got married in December 2009. In 2010, I experienced the bliss of marital life. During the first quarter of 2010, I was busy in my marital life. Since my wife hails from another city, travelling outside Lahore and exploring smaller cities around Lahore was quite exciting and thrilling.  The second quarter started with a bang, and all the good things and carefree calm of the first quarter were replaced with the bits and pieces of agitation. My dear Khala was diagnosed with cancer. She had her operation and, by the grace of Allah almighty, it went well. Side by side, during this quarter, I had to make the toughest decision of my life. I got a job offer from a multinational company in Islamabad. The job looked promising, but it required me to relocate. Leaving your home city and family seems to be the toughest decision.
