Prestige of Dowry
“NO! PLEASE… I want to stay with my husband… Oh… Please don’t do this to me for the sake of my kids… They won’t be able to stay without their father … PLEASE stop…” She was screaming out loud, begging helplessly with a baby girl of about 6 months and a three years old boy behind her. Both the kids were watching everything with an astonishment in their eyes not knowing what was happening and why their mother was weeping. A middle aged lady was dragging that poor soul out from her room through the TV lounge towards the main door of the house. Everyone else including her husband was standing silently, unresisting and with frowned face.

And that day made a strong me
That summer night I couldn’t sleep because next morning I had to take my Physics Exam. I always found Physics a very tough subject because of its numerical problems. I still remember there was no electricity supply that entire night (due to load shedding) and I had to study in candle light (UPS and generators were not much trending at that time). Well, next morning I went to the examination centre praying and half sleepy. At around 9am the invigilator distributed the answer sheets first and question papers afterwards. With shivering hands, I prepared my answer sheet and started reading the question paper. For few moments, I felt like crying and wanted to leave the centre because my mind got blank and I was unable to recall even a single topic I prepared. Every question was new to me, words were fading away, and I was losing heart. I left the question paper, closed my eyes and underpinned myself with the back of my chair. For a few moments a flood of negative thoughts like; leaving the examination hall without attempting a single question, getting failed in exam and devastation of my future took over my mind. But all of a sudden I gathered courage; a single thought of my ruined future made me capable of attempting the questions. I really don’t know how many questions I attempted but the thing that engraved in my memories was I came back home crying and disappointed. My father (being my teacher) used to ask me details of my exams on our way to home (as he was the one providing me pick and drop service too), that day when he saw me blank he was shocked and became upset. He never saw me failing like that before but he still appreciated me and said; “Be strong my dear daughter! I know you can do this, just have faith in ALLAH, He will definitely help you.”

Introverts in Society
"Who is an Introvert?" Introvert is basically a psychological term. This term was first introduced by "Carl Jung", a famous 20th-century psychologist. As we all know "Psychology" is the study of human behavior, the human mind, and its functions. An Introvert is a kind of shy person; someone who enjoys spending time alone and has a reserved kind of nature. The contrary word of "Introvert" is "Extrovert"; someone who enjoys being surrounded by a group of people, someone who is much more social than an introvert.
