Every story of life begins with a journey. Where the journey ends, that story also ends. Every day of our life begins with a story and the end of this story is the end of this story. But we have to decide for ourselves whether we want to start our every morning with a happy and beautiful story or we want to start it in a chaotic way and then when it ends, we are crying, we are running. It all depends on our own life. It depends on our own thinking. In the past few days, I took my students on a journey. That journey was towards the sports field. Then from there, we went to the market. We saw different places. But this journey took me far back. I saw that the city in which I am roaming and seeing different places. Some time ago, there was nothing here. There was silence here. These were deserted places. When I used to go to college, there used to be a few shops here and vehicles used to pass through here, but this area was deserted. There was a government hospital near it, which we The headquarters hospital also says, "I am talking about Mianwali city. This is my native district. I was born in this district. My parents and ancestors have been living here for centuries. But this world has completely changed. The story that I remembered from the past many years and now this new beautiful journey is completely different."
The view you are seeing in the pictures now, big buildings have been built, big shopping malls have been built and more and more modern buildings are being built here. So I feel like this city is no longer the city it was 20 years ago. This was the place where horses used to stand, horse carts, horse-drawn carriages, people used to ride horses to go here and there. There were very few cars. And today, when I saw this scene, I felt very good, beautiful and happy that our district is also developing now because if I look at the previous periods, it was a deserted area. There were also thefts here. People did not come out at night due to fear and terror. But today, if we pass by here at any time of the night, whether it is morning or late at night, this area is shining with lights. People are busy shopping. And now, such tall buildings are being built here that 10, 10, 20-story shopping malls have been built. And now This area looks beautiful and has also entered the modern and developed era. You can see these pictures and if you look back and think to yourself, if you feel that when there were shops made of mud bricks here, the area here was very deserted and now there are tall buildings here, how beautiful and how rare the previous era must have seemed.
Due to the construction of these shopping malls and big buildings here, the prices of land have also increased. Earlier, if the land here was very cheap, I would say that people did not even buy it because it was a deserted place. And those people who bought the land cheaply have now become millionaires and have sold each marla of land for several lakhs, whereas 20-30 years ago, people did not even buy land here due to its deserted condition. Now, since big shopping malls, hospitals, schools are being built, it has become a professional and commercial area. When the commercial area was built, the prices skyrocketed and the land started being sold at very expensive prices. And here, big capitalists created their big brands. If we talk about brands for shopping here, Junaid Jamshed brand, Bata brand, service brand and various food brands and so on, shoes, clothes, stationery and kitchen equipment, all kinds of brands are working here individually. I think that now these big The big buildings of Emirates Shopping Plazas are also enhancing the beauty of this area and are also contributing to the development of this area. People are also getting employment here and the people here are also becoming prosperous. So I have shown you these beautiful pictures because when I passed by here, I remembered the past here. When I looked back at the past, I felt how different those days and today are. There was nothing here and today these tall buildings have been erected. So you will also enjoy seeing these pictures and then listening to my story of the past because this looks like a completely different city. It was a village-like area. It was a small, simple, deserted area in the past. Now it has become a developed city and I am very happy.
These tall buildings that you see, earlier we used to see these buildings and shopping plazas in big cities. When we went to Lahore, Islamabad or any big city of Pakistan, there were these tall buildings there and we were very happy to see them. But now we are seeing these beautiful buildings in our own city, in our own district. It seems as if someone has planted the beauty of Lahore and the tall buildings of big cities in this small district of ours. And we are seeing this. This work was not done in a day. Every year, some new buildings are built, but then when a cluster of buildings forms and buildings start being built in a line and a row, they look even more beautiful.
These beautiful areas look very beautiful when there is peace here. I would like to say one more thing that there is peace and beauty in my district. If I talk about the beauty of my district, there are high mountains here, there is a beautiful view of the river here, and there are places for beautiful sunsets here. So my city is beautiful in every way.
This was a beautiful story that is connected to the past and the beauty of the future. Every city, every region, every town, every country, wherever people live, is now developing. Now the era of technology has come. Now it is not difficult to build tall buildings. In fact, tall buildings with many floors are built in a few days. But there is one more thing. Under these tall buildings, there are some people who can see these tall buildings and who are watching the people coming and going in them, but they do not have shoes to wear on their feet. They do not have clothes. I have seen many people who stand in the shade of big plazas and shopping halls, but they do not have shoes on their feet. They do not have clothes to wear. In winter, they have nothing to cover their bodies. Whenever we go inside these big plazas and do shopping, we should definitely keep an eye on those people around us and sitting under these tall mountains and tall buildings who do not have shoes on their feet. Those who do not have clothes to wear so that we can be a source of comfort for them, these tall buildings are a symbol of progress, but somewhere they also bring disappointment to someone and we have to remove the disappointments of these faces. We can remove the disappointments of these faces only when we buy something for them with our beautiful laughter, smile and with our own hands and give it to them. If someone does not have shoes to wear, we will buy shoes for them from these big brand stores and wear them. Similarly, clothes. And sometimes we go to big hotels and eat food, sit in high-rise hospitals and eat delicious food in luxury. We also have to take care of those hungry stomachs that are around these buildings to satisfy their hunger. I hope you liked these beautiful pictures of mine and also the writing. I thank you all for reading my writing today.
