Revolution 2020




Revolution 2020


Revolution 2020 an interesting and sweet Novel from Indian author Chetan Baghat. I usually do not like his books but I liked this one so much. It was an easy read; maybe because Indians authors do not want to use complicated and sophisticated vocabulary for the sake of their readers who let's face it do not have that strong a vocabulary. 

    So it was about a love triangle between two boys and a girl( Gopal, Raghav and Aarti). I don't want to spoil anything you gotta read by your won and enjoy a lovely story. I just wanna say that at the end who has softest heart gets his heart broken so bad. Gopal loves Aarti more than anything else in the world. He does any thing and everything for her. But Aarti is with Raghav who is a friend of Gopal and gets to know Aarti by her best friend(Gopal). Along the way  a lot of things happen; hearts get broken they change, they evolve. They say the passage of time will hail all wounds but the greater the loss the deeper the cut and the more difficult process to become whole again. The pain may fade but the scars serve as a reminder of our suffering and make the bearer all the more resolved never to be wounded again. So as time moves along we get lost in distraction, act out in frustration react with aggression give in to anger. 

    Gopal loves Aarti infinitely but he lets he go because he thinks Raghav is better choice for her. He suffers very badly. Maybe he will never recover from the loss of his loved one in the whole world, but he chooses others' happiness over his. 

It is a very beautiful tale. It makes more sense and gets more interesting when you had lived in India like me or know about the culture and tradition of Indians.

All the very best, don't forget to read the book.!

Last days with International Medical Corps-Afghanistan

 Last days with International Medical Corps-Afghanistan  So, these are my last days with IMC-Afghanistan. I joined IMC, at the beginning of July-2022. And I had intended to stay, at least for a year. However, turns out I was not going to stay in Sar-e-Pul city for long; fate had something different for me. I was able to be accepted into World Vision International-Afghanistan, as a Monitoring and Evaluation Officer in my own home city. The written test for the position was, like two months ago. I don't know why they took so much time to conduct their interviews. Since I was not able to attend the interview in person, I requested them if they would take my interview through Skype, and luckily they agreed. My interview went well, you know, like not really well, but well enough. It seemed that my co-applicants' were not as good as mine. A day after my interview I received a call from WVI-Afghanistan country office in Herat city. The guy, who introduced himself as HR Officer, ...

I am Still Here

  Frankly, I never thought I would be in Afghanistan even after three years of college graduation. By now I thought I'd be somewhere far off but sadly I am still here. I am not sure when I'd be able to leave. I am afraid if I stayed here for long I might not wanna leave. Plus I am getting older by each year. There is the matter of marriage also. I am not sure how much longer I can keep postponing it. I am not worried so much about the marriage though, still, it seems like I should start thinking about it. But then again marriage can wait but education can't.  I am thinking of starting my higher education online. With the Taliban and their unpredictable rules, getting a passport to travel abroad is not guaranteed. So online education is my only way forward. I am thinking of settling down here; if only I could find the right person. Marriage is a very tricky business, there is no margin for error. For now, I can start my online studies and after a year or two when I am close ...

And it is yet to happen…

And it is yet to happen…   I want to write here a little bit about the events of the last couple of days. So turns out among three reference letters which were supposed to be sent to Save the Children International by the people who I had worked with previously, one had not been sent. It was from my school principal Abdul Rahim Timur. I have been waiting to receive a call from them and yet the reference check wasn’t finished for them to call me or proceed with the next step of their recruitment process.   After a lot of patience, I got really restless, so I texted the HR guy from SCI on Monday, two days ago, and asked him if everything was alright regarding my application, which was my way of saying what the heck happened dude, you are killing me here, I have been dying to receive a call from you and yet you never called. I was not expecting his response, not even remotely. He sent me this message, “Mr. Timur has not replied yet”. DARN! I was really furious at the time, I ...
