Quote of the Day: Commemorating Quaid-e-Azam

An Original piece by The Sanniah Experience! The video is up on YouTube. The link is attached at the bottom of this piece.  © The Sanniah Experience! (TSE) Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah or the Father of the Nation for Pakistan was born to a Karachi-based family in the 1860s. A lawyer by profession, the Quaid perhaps knew full well the need for a separate homeland for the Muslims of the sub-continent. "Think hundred times before you take a decision, but once that decision is taken, stand by it as one man." Quaid-e-Azam, Muhammad Ali Jinnah Quaid-e-Azam, and his younger sister, Mohtarma Fatima Ali Jinnah, have contributed greatly towards the inception and Partition of Pakistan, literally meaning, the land of the pure.  The Quaid was wiser for his time since he rightfully pointed out the need for and deep-seated existence of the "Two Nation Theory" which clearly stated that Muslims and Hindus were not just two religions, they were actually...

The Animal and the Prey

© The Sanniah Experience! (TSE) By Sanniah Hassan One encounter is all it takes – To silence – a generation.   To mute a woman, Into submission and the darkness of her soul.   One animal attack - And silence, forever   None comes to her aid – They all say “hush, don’t talk about it” As if not talking will subdue the terror within her, As if it will put her perpetrator behind bars!   Not talking doesn’t help! It never has; it never will. Silence grows like cancer slowly, Painfully, Killing her from within.   Leaving nothing but a hollow shell… People say “be quiet, child” as if that could make the pain go away –   Hush! Means silence… They mean to suppress her To take her voice from her   Her only weapon – And make her a helpless prey.   A hollow, A body without a soul, Merely existing, never living.   No one wants to listen, Her parents refuse to believe, She must...

The Underworld

© The Sanniah Experience! (TSE) By Sanniah Hassan Is it wrong to love? To covet, the unreachable, The unattainable? Humans call it incest! But I Persistently believe it to be A stronger force – A deeper feeling… love. O Persephone! Dear child, My dreams come true With you and me The King and Queen of the Underworlds, The rulers of Styx. The world is set right. I know that keeping you with me, Is tiresome for you. Taking you away from your mother, My dear sister, is cruel – But isn’t this love blind? Precious, please forgive me Yet I have no control; This love renders me a waste, Makes me useless. O Ceres, sister of mine Let’s call a truce? Let Persephone decide her fate. Let’s decide once and for all. From now on wife of mine, The Queen of all that’s ours I set you free to visit the world of the living, So you may rest, and rejuvenate In the care Of your mother.
