The journey of life is not that easy as one thinks. Its a blend of joy & sorrows. Everyday there is a new ship to sail, a new challenge to face. I consider myself a very inconsistent & amateur person due to infinite reasons but it doesn't mean that I am all that dum, but in certain areas I need to work out. I don't believe in friendship but I am firm believer of "Brotherhood". I don't want to be harsh but for me friendship is just like a bunch of selfish individuals who interact with each other just for their own interests. Sharing, caring these all terminologies don't fit in my definition of the term "friendship''. You have every right to disagree with my thoughts and ideas but I just don't want to be another brick in the wall.

I guess enough dragging lets get to the point- Back in the year 2008, I saw a nerdy look alike guy in my Undergrad class. I always make a deduction of a person in my mind and most of my predictions about people are Alhamdulilah accurate. I said to myself :  "This nerdy is just here for some serious business, he doesn't give a shit that what people think about him and whats going on in the class, he is dry in nature and lacks in humor, no way he will be my "friend", we'll just shake hands & that's it."
[My assessment about this guy was almost right]

To be honest I hate to be a friend with such kind of nerdy guys that is my I didn't meet him for the first two months. Then due to a mutual friend, I started shaking hands with him & the hand shake which I had with him today was not the kind of  handshake which I had 4 years back. I don't have appropriate words to describe the handshake which I had with him but it wasn't very pleasant. The person of discussion is my Undergrad class mate/ brother Umair Azeem (aka David). I can easily write a book on this guy as we spent alot of time together along with Hammad Sethi (aka Zakar Bhai).

You never know where life takes you but all of a sudden leaving your homeland and then settling far away hurts. The expeditions we had together are not forgettable especially the bike accident, creation of names, humorous discussions, intelligence sharing, hang outs, uni. rooms missions, lunches/dinners etc. I had a splendid brotherly time with him in which he advised me in every walk of life and was always there to help me out. All these are just golden memories and I am hopeful to have more of these moments in the future InshALLAH. Excluding Hammad from this blog is like body without soul, Zakar Bhai remained "center of discussion" in my talks with David. All three of us had a splendid time together in the last year at university and even after then. The term "brotherhood" best describes three of us.

I am thankful to David for guiding me in how to ride a bike, taking me back home on the bike, taking care of me when I was sick, telling me how to stay calm, bridge between Zakar & my friendship, practically implementing optimism in life, leaving the aggressive approach and how to deal with life's bitter scenarios.

I have written this blog as this is what I feel. My intention is not to impress or make an impact on anyone.
Above lines illustrate what I feel and what I think.....


Today I believe that I have lost a gem which is now very hard to find. I wish him best of luck in every voyage of life and pray for his health and career.
