A big shout out to KHUD's crowdfunding campaign.

Khud means self in Urdu. They are tirelessly working from 3 years to change the lives of underprivileged children by equipping them with digital skills and crafts.
There is a persistent educational crisis in Pakistan. The main and immediate problems include the lack of schools and teachers. However, Khud is exploring alternatives by providing the children with a proper self-learning environment that gives them a fighting chance to compete in the modern, highly digitalised age.
Their focus is to interject a digitalised approach to education in Pakistan. They have designed a number of digital curricula for various subjects. It facilitates a project based self-learning experience to the children harnessing the curiosity to learn.
Khud aims to have over 500 kids graduate from their digital program and by the end of this year, the digital curriculums would be made public to reach the kids even from the remote areas.
To give these underprivileged children a fighting chance for a better and brighter future, contribute to our crowdfunding campaign. Your support can transform the lives of many children by proffering them a chance to stand out.

4th April, 2011

Some days are incredibly special in your life. They change the way you look at everything and for me, it was 4th April 2011. It was the day when I got into a major spinal surgery aiming to decompress my spine from a giant cell tumor on the C7-T1 level. I remember vividly lying down in my hospital bed the night before my surgery. Touch screen phones with not very common and we had one of those phones where you navigate the screen through the keypad. I searched about my surgery, the procedure, the side effects, and basically, what can go wrong. It was numbing and after a point, I was terrified. That night, I couldn't sleep. The uncertainty had captured my existence. Nothing seemed to help, therefore, I started praying. The only thought in my mind was, what if I die tomorrow? I started seeking forgiveness and looking back at my journey. Who I was and what had happened? It was overwhelming and sleep was nowhere to be found.  One of the most interesting things that happened the night be...

Moving on!

The transition from an impeccably healthy individual to being in a wheelchair is very hard. It wasn't easy for me either but it gets harder when you don't get any backing from your friends, family and the society. I was lucky because I got support from my incredible family as they pulled me out from a phase of disparity into being grateful for what I have despite the agony I had to undergo. Everything changed but the only thing that didn't change was my hope and believe that everything will be alright. Life can be pretty hard at times but the only way we can get over this severity is by believing in ourselves and The Almighty. When you cannot control a situation it is best to submit it to the most superlative authority: God! Any set of circumstances that tests your patience is sort of a trial from the Almighty to see how we deal with the muddle and still be grateful to Him for all his blessings. I know all of this seems to be very dramatic but it is true. Our plans are al...

Christmas season and Saint Peter's High School.

Image
The Christmas season always makes me very nostalgic for various reasons. I have studied in coeducation and missionary school, Saint Peter's High School, Lahore. That building, the hallways, the cafeteria and the basketball ground, each and every place is clearly pictured in my head. As I write about it, I can clearly remember each and every place of that building. I feel extremely lucky to be a part of such an amazing institution, the time that I have spent there has played a very huge role in my life. The school is always very special for everyone, every child spends the best of his or her time in school. I have heard people dreaming about their school premises even after leaving it, even I have been to my school on several occasions in my dreams. November - December used to be the most fun-filled and busy time of the year. The annual Christmas play assortments used to commence in November, I was picked as an angel three times consecutively. Honestly, it felt conspicuously h...
