These are pictures worth a thousand words! I am speechless at the intensity of their need, need for help, need for food, need to survive!
Watching flood coverage on tv screens all day makes us immune and we do not realize the magnitude of the disaster.
Please help these people in whatever way you can. On such days I wish to be “man” so I am free to leave the comforts of my house and do some “real” help.
pakistan flood victims
Pak army supplying food
Millions of people are effected by these floods and today I saw markets in Islamabad full of people shopping happily. There was no shadow of sorrow in their eyes and no urgency in their movements. Are we the same nation who got together after the “oct 8 earthquake”? Are we numb now? It seems like we have stopped feeling the sorrow of others. It long since are nerves are not relaxed, things happen one after the other and we are so used to watching these horrible things and carrying on with our lives.
I wish this vicious circle of disasters, crashes, blasts, drones and killings come to an end. Please help people of our beloved country and pray as ramadan is approaching. Pray for peace, pray for hope, pray for happiness, pray for life!!
It is requested to all pakistanies to help flood victims because they are also our brothers and such threatful can invade us also
I appreciate your concern and the “wish”. I also do hope that the aid and the money pouring in is used to rehablitate these poor people rather than topping up vaults.
We, Students of Pakistan, can play a big role to help affected peoples. If we simply promote the concept of Islam and concept of Pakistan that is “Sacrifice our important things for others”. Its easy and it will be helpful to improve the morals of Pakistanis.
