HivePakistan Curation Compilation March 11, 2025

Nkem has been my friend since secondary school, and I have always loved her demure nature. It was love at first sight when she entered the classroom on her first day, her appearance was captivating. Thankfully, she was positioned to sit right beside me. She never acted like a newcomer. The way she interacted with me made it seem as though we had known each other forever. Later, I realized it was a moral her parents had instilled in her, to always respect people, no matter who they are ...

It was 1971 when Pakistan attacked the Longewala border, it was night time and the Indian army was not ready. But as the night progressed, the Indian army got ready and won the war in the morning. I am not in favor of war of any country because politicians get thousands of innocent soldiers killed for their greed. Well, my thoughts cannot put an end to any war except my thoughts.

To provide a bit of context, my parents come from incomplete families: my father was raised by a single mother who only completed four years of primary school. My mother was raised by her paternal grandmother, as her father preferred to marry a virgin woman rather than the mother of his two children. It is evident that our upbringing leaves deep seated experiences and lessons in us, and of course, some traumas. In my particular experience, I believe it would have been more enriching for my development if my parents had been helicopter parents ...

Manila has always been special to me. I spent my college years there and recently had to visit my alma mater with @gabbiebi to get some documents. After wrapping up our errands, we decided to check out one of the coffee shops we've been meaning to visit. Elsewhere Cafe is located on the 3rd floor of a building beside De La Salle College of St. Benilde. We spotted the Elsewhere cafe sign outside but we weren't really sure how to get there. While we're figuring it out, a guy outside the building seemed to sense our confusion ...

Hello Freinds. I hope you are all doing well. After some days I am back with a new post of worldmappin. This time this post was special for me because I was seeing first time this Park. And this Park was more than my expectation. Because it was Japanese Park ...
