Hooded Crows are Real and other Discoveries of an American
To say that me and my friend in Germany have been planning what to do while I'm in Potsdam for a week and a half would be a quiet understatement. Instead, she's spent several mornings (my middle of the nights) walking around her neighborhood, with her phone showing the various sights and sounds around her.

I can't remember the last time I felt free, like really free. It has been so long since I believe I had that feeling, the feeling of being unencumbered by the weight of the world, by everything and everyone around me.

I’m afraid of heights. No! Let me rephrase that. It’s not the height that scares me, I’m terrified of falling from that height, whatever it is.

5000 year old University Sharda ruins, forts, Korans and pandas, Mongols and Mughal passages, charming gardens, forests and trails, waterfalls, forts, archeological treasures. Millions of tourists are arriving in Kashmir from within the country. Now the government has opened Azad Kashmir to tourists like any other tourist destination in the country. This important sector is associated with the employment of more than half a million people of the independent state who were unemployed for five months. Kashmir is undoubtedly a paradise in the world. In the upper areas, even in June, the atmosphere and weather feel like January. One of the most beautiful part of Kashmir is under the control of India. The second part is Azad Kashmir and the third part is Gilgit-Baltistan. Fourth, under Chinese control. These are all masterpieces of beauty. In the last era of PPP in Azad Kashmir, attention was paid to bring the state closer to Gilgit-Baltistan. Which everyone welcomed. Everyone wants to try to establish friendly relations with the people of Gilgit-Baltistan. Former Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif has announced construction of Neelam Expressway and Shunthar Tunnel, an important highway connecting Azad Kashmir with Gilgit-Baltistan and China. It is not known what happened with these projects. Immediate work did not start. Construction of Wadi Lipa tunnel was also necessary. But even this was not constructed. If the Imran Khan government took into account the need to include Azad Kashmir in the C-Pack, took an interest in the completion of important projects and kept development separate from politics, It will lead to the development of the region. In the time of Dogra Maharajas, ancient routes connected Kashmir with Central Asia, Iran and China. If the governments of Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir pay special attention to the construction and development of the region together with Islamabad, then the fate here will change.

The Beauty of the Ability to go Inward
Morning walks with the dog are such a simple moment. So simple, and so consistent, I'm often doing the deed on Autopilot. I am fully in my brain, letting my thoughts catch my awareness with the intention of pulling me away from the feeling of the cold air on my skin or the liquid dripping from my red, runny nose. I don't want to feel those things. I want this to be over. Having a dog is a great reason to force you to get up in the morning cause I sure as hell wouldn't be out here otherwise... All these thoughts tumbling over one another as I bickered with myself about my life choices.
