Why Only The World

Fair enough, why only the world covers? That is one of the options I have for you now. I have worked in schools for quite some years now and understand the kind of problems that await to solve at the school level. No one is denying the fact that all schools across the globe have the same problems. But we need to understand that our country isn’t different from any other country in the world. If you are from Pakistan, you will be able to understand the problems faced by these people in other countries as well. I am sure it will be no problem to you to translate these two lines into other languages like Dutch, Spanish, Greek, French etc. As I said earlier, we need to understand that there are so many problems all over the world and not just in Pakistan.

I could understand it when people asked me why only Pakistan covered this story. For that, I need to tell you that when we worked on the translation of the book, many people from all over the world came to our workshops and we really enjoyed speaking with them and they enjoyed talking with us. So, they wanted to know more about the book and told us that the issues that the poor people face are as much a problem for them as they are for us. We did mention that these are problems in all countries but no one seemed to be in a mood to talk. If you have to tell the rest of the world that there is no water in Pakistan or that women are not treated like human beings in Pakistan, then you need to have something that is more like a personal story than just an abstract issue.

About Pakistan

So when you make a personal story, you might not be able to find people to talk to. If we were to tell the entire world that we have never found an educated doctor in Pakistan or that women are treated like objects in our society, it would be great but the problem is that we don’t have something like a personal story to tell. I was born here and I am proud to be Pakistani but my ideas, my lifestyle and my needs might be different from those of someone else. We need to find the people who need to be talked to and then we can tell them about our own lives.

So, the answer to your question is simple: only the world. Only you can talk about your own problems and not the problems of the entire world. We cannot be told about the problems of the world and then be asked about our problems. We need to find our own problems and talk about them.

If You Can’t Speak About Your Problems, You Can’t Help Your Country

This is a very important point that I need to make clear. Many of you might not have the opportunity to go to any kind of school and come from families who do not pay attention to the problems that you face. If you are a student, you will be unable to be able to understand problems faced by a person who is not educated. And if you are a teacher, you will also not be able to speak about the problems of the people you teach or to understand them in the first place.

We are all very proud of being Pakistanis but the truth is that in a country where people don’t want to study, we will have a lot of problems. We need to go to school if we want to help our country. That means that we are willing to study more and better ourselves so that we can understand the problems that are faced by our countrymen and women. You might be asking why do you need to do all this? To me, this is the real challenge. We need to go out there and search for the issues that the people of our country face. These are issues that we all face. I don’t think that the people of other countries have a problem that is greater than that faced by a Pakistani.

If you look around, you will realise that it is not hard to find a problem. Most of the problems that people face come from people themselves. I am a victim of this because in order to create a good Pakistani, we need to go out there and face these problems head on.

I am not saying that we have everything. We do not. In fact, we have a lot of problems. However, when you have a problem, you will be able to find solutions. When I go to meet people about my issue.

My Solution

I grew up with a father who had different views on different things than the rest of the world. I do not remember my father having the same belief system as most of his friends. And yet he always kept my brother and me and had good relations with his friends. I think that he has taught us that no matter what your views are, it is important to respect people and to try to find solutions to problems.
