Hi guys its great to be back had excellent vacation on the beaches of Aruba and it seemed like the great weather was waiting for us to arrive. We engaged in lot of fun activities like jet skiing, parasailing, snorkeling in a coral reef, bi-cycled around town but nothing beat the long walks in the early mornings, holding hands with Mrs Unicorn, walking towards the mighty rising Sun, who makes the roaring waves, every morning along the oceans shore with warm water washing our feet.

We talked to other fellow vacationers and got more ideas.

It was also time to contemplate, self-reflect, self-question and introspect, without any worries about work, with lots of time at hand. I read balance sheets every month at work and decided to look in my own mind at my balance sheet. In afternoons shade as I relaxed on a beach-chair, with beach hat covering my face, I looked at my assets, liabilities and equity, carefully examined them and tried to find ways to improve. I tried to see the line that divides self-righteousness from righteousness, unfortunately, I could not see and I have no idea where I stand, so you have to deal with it but most importantly I have to deal with it.

I have decided to take a step back from nationalism so cheer up, therefore as a result I wont be saying Kashmir is a part of India and it will remain so and I might not respond to Kashmir threads for a while.
I missed Siasat.pk with my all friends and foes here, I tried to shake it off but couldnt. I was able to eat more fruits as a result of Humas avatars and wondered every day what avatara Mehrushka has changed today. I wondered if Modern Fakir is going to full-fill his promise to build one million toilets in India, I dont think so and what plans Wadaich has come up with regards to becoming the first Khalifa/Guzwa Hind.

About Aruba:

It is a small Island with motto Happy Island on license plates. It has spectacular beaches with fine white sand. Palm Beach is a resort area with about fifteen large hotels on beach front and a large shopping area on the other side of the road with lots of restaurants of all types including three Indian restaurants. The all provide amazing food.

We stayed in the Holiday Inn resort and three doors down there is the Hayat Hotel. Its a very beautiful hotel with several Ponds with Swans, Ducks, Turtles and fish. It has several talking birds that occasionally say Hello to the passerby and sometimes repeat.

Aruba has many communities living together with good harmony like south Americans, Dutch, Indians and Chinese. People are great hosts very friendly and helpful. Tourism makes up 80 percent of its economy. It has no fresh water and water is produced with desalinization of sea water. It does have a couple of small mountains and a national park.

مصلحت وقت کی ہے کس کے عمل کا معیار؟
کس کی آنکھوں میں سمایا ہے شعارِ اغیار؟
ہو گئی کس کی نگہ طرزِ سلف سے بیزار؟

امراء نشۂ دولت میں ہیں غافل ہم سے
زندہ ہے ملت بیضا غربا کے دم سے

ہر کوئی مست مۓ ذوق تن آسانی ہے
تم مسلماں ہو! یہ انداز مسلمانی ہے؟
حیدری فقر ہے نہ دولت عثمانی ہے
تم کو اسلاف سے کیا نسبت روحانی ہے؟

Thank you its great to be back it was a excellent Unimoon.

They don't have to go to Aruba to UNDERSTAND that too much nationalism is a false bond. A person should understand his/her duties towards their nation without creating a bond. A mind is much happier without any bonds:)

I think you are drowning not swimming in the pool and what's it with the hat!!![hilar] [hilar] [hilar]. Nice pics by the way, you resemble Sunny Gavaskar with perhaps a few pounds extra in weight so recommend a diet that will do you good! :lol: :lol: How much did the trip cost you??

It's not your decision but that of Allah as to what will happen with Kashmir. I say with equal certainly that it will become an integral part of Pakistani within 5 years.

Hat is to protect me from Sunburn and I still got sunburn on my nose.

I stayed at Holiday in for 12 nights at the cost of $240 per night and it was not all inclusive $3400 for airfare plus food n shopping(serious)

I still wear size 34 waist and large size T shirt I got to shed 15 pounds and I shall do it with in couple of months now(serious)
