Pause.................., for Freedom??

Did some one say "Pause"? hm... guess, when life goes too fast, something makes you pause..and thats what happend when I was casted for a hand injury. I got to know whats a sec, min, hour, day, week, weeks mean to me. how "on the move" I was, and how life came to a stand still! It made me listen to the silence with in, around. How mobile I was, how immobile Ibecame! Did I complain? ha..yeh, to myself.., Not to others. Caught up with reading, and thats when I met, Laila, Mariam, Rashid, Tariq, ofcourse in my visit to Afghanistan!! As I was reading "A thousand splendid suns, I literally lived in Afghanistan,with its characters, the local flavours, the food, and fun, and their pain! One of the few things I would like to do before I die.. visit Afganisthan? Thanks to Khalid Hussaini for creating an awareness in me, how helpless women still are, and can be!! How fortunate most of the women are, and how much struggle some need to put up for one most common, natural, thing called FREEDOM!! I got it now......ofcourse from my cast! FREEdom..is what we all want, and do hope every one gets it, for what ever reasons they are asking it for!!
