I haven't written in a few days and today should've been my day to put up a new blog post. Unfortunately, today has been an incredibly heavy day emotionally. While it's been a difficult day for all of Pakistan, today was particularly bad for my husband and I and our families, as we're from Peshawar. While we were fortunate to have all our loved ones and family members home and safe, news continued to pour in all day of friends grieving the loss of their family members, acquaintances losing children, mothers and fathers and all-round chaos. Today was not only a day where I did not watch a single show, it's also a day where the last thing on my mind was to write about any form of entertainment.
Pakistan is going through a rough time, namely Peshawar. Please keep these grief-stricken families in your prayers tonight. Hold your children tight and kiss them goodnight. This could've been any one of us. These victims were young, lively children. These victims were great educators and parents. These victims were all innocent human beings, 140 + of them. Keep them in your duaas and prayers today.
That's all.
Extremely depressing news. I have not been able to understand what goes on in the minds of people who think it is okay to take another life, but the ones that target children are the worst monsters. Praying for the victims and their families.
