( loss of a leader )

On 27th December just five days before the world celebrates the coming of 2008, the world is being shocked by the assassination of one of the democratic leaders in Pakistan. It is really a great shock to many and for me it is truly a loss for the Pakistani people as they are still trapped in the cage of extremism and radicalism. Miss Benazir Bhutto is an epitome of democracy and freedom for the Pakistani people that seek to get out from the political and military turmoil that has been manifested Pakistan since 1998.

Miss Benazir Bhutto is one of the many great women leaders that I admired. She is the first Muslim woman to govern a Muslim State and I truly admired her spirit and her courage to break Pakistan from the brim of destruction. Her political journey will remain a legacy and many will remember her for her strength and many will adulate her optimism to bring and move Pakistan to a more democratic society. She does not deserve to be shot nor does deserve to end her life in such a way. Like what she mentioned “God’s will nothing will happen if it is God’s will”, perhaps she had a premonition of her own death and she knew the risks but she is willing to face it. I hope that Pakistan will be able to find a new leader to lead and guide them out from this turmoil that may eventually turn into a civil war. I hope that all Muslims remember Benazir Bhutto for her work to get Pakistan out from terror and annihilation condition

Many young people will mourn for the loss of this woman, many too will mourn for their loss hope of getting out from a military coup and many too will mourn for more lives that will be lost following the aftermath of Miss Bhutto’s death. This is a tragedy for all Pakistani people. The young may never get to see how it feels to be free, to do what they want to do and have own autonomy to decide for themselves. The extremists and the military have forbid many democratic leaders from gaining power and now terrorists get a taste of playing the game of politics as well. When will violence end? How many innocent lives will be lost? How many children will be orphan, how many parents will lose their children and how many widows are they going to create?


Like a flower that blooms once sun rises
You give light and hope for your color shines
The tenderness and softness of your presence
Makes many wish for a better tomorrow
Many think your beautiful color is a trap to us
But you show it with Great Spirit
That you are here to aspire

Many not know what to expect
And you yourself leave it to fate
Letting go is the toughest part
But we all know beautiful color is not forever
I will remember who you are
For I see your true color
And that is beyond this universe

Like a night that blows in a dark side
It gives a chill down to the spine
Maybe the coldness did not stopped your soul
Coz, it will be here to remain

May God be with you and hope you find the light in the amidst of darkness
