16 People on Twitter Who Inspire the World

I just wanted to extend my deepest thanks to 2morrowknight who list me in his inspirational Article16 People on Twitter Who Inspire the World.



It is my proud privilege to be one of the 16 listed outstanding talents from the World who are inspiring the World with their thought provoking tweets and spreading Love. Twitter as we all know is the most used application all over the world and its a great honor to me to be a part of its stream. I believe just as Charles F. Kettering do that Our imagination is the only limit to what we can hope to have in the future.

I wish to work for humanity for ever. I am happy that i have been acknowledged as a Passionate Pakistani and it is more than any thing to me because my country is my mother and i am proud to be a part of it. It is good to be a part of motivated people as i also likes the phrase that Motivation starts with you! As you aspire to be more successful in life, your attitude towards yourself and others will play a huge role. Positive people learn how to handle life's challenges differently and use these opportunities to grow. So can you!

I must not forget the people who are following me as i believe without their courage, love, support and criticism i would not be able to do my job in such a better way still a long way to go and more things to learn from them. There were so many times when i felt disappointed due to attitudes of some people but i realized at that time " If you feel that the world has turned against you, don't worry. Rise with your head up and say, 'It may not be now but I believe I will conquer the world.'" I am happy it proves. I have no words to pay my gratitude to 2morrowknight and huffingtonpost for their recognition. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

Last but not the least one of my favorite quote from Kiplimo Chemirmir

" On a quest to start a new life, you will face a lot of challenges and uphill battles that will try to bring you down. Fears will arise that will make you stumble and the only way to stop them is to face them! As a friend, I would like you to know that life will knock us down but we can choose to get back up. Remember, always, be strong. Root that in your heart."

55th death anniversary of Pakistan’s most gifted Urdu short-story writer

55th death anniversary of most gifted Urdu short-story writer Saadat Hasan Manto, who died on January 18, 1955 at the age of only 43.

Born on May 11, 1912 - Saadat was a prolific writer during his short life. In a literary, journalistic, radio scripting and film-writing career spread over two decades, he produced 22 collections of short stories, a novel, five collections of radio plays, three collections of essays, two collections of personal sketches, and 12 scripts for films, including Eight Days, ‘Chal Chal Re Naujawan’ and ‘Mirza Ghalib’, which was shot after Manto moved to Pakistan in January 1948. He also performed in two movies.

It was Partition that inspired Manto’s greatest works - ‘Toba Tek Singh’, to mention just one, which gained him much posthumous fame. India’s Doordarshan television, as well as Channel Four, UK, adapted this play as a telefilm, and it has been staged several times, including in faraway Norway. And yet, during his lifetime, he had to deal with much infamy. His unflinching realism and uncompromising observations of life as he saw it led to Manto being tried for obscenity half-a-dozen times, thrice before and thrice after Partition. Read Full
