Such an Honor.

By God when I read my email today at the Face book and my nephew,Arsalan, whom by the way I had last seen when he was maybe two years old, said that he would rather call me a friend and a role model than an aunt, I was speechless. All that I could say was, "Wow". So many hours later I am still feeling overwhelmed with these emotions that I can not put into words. He is an extremely smart and intelligent young fellow, who is gifted with the art of writing, rational and critical thinking. Like him I found many of my nieces and nephews on Face book that I didn't know ever existed. We share our thoughts, concerns and so many conversations with each other.
Some of my friends, cousins, and relatives live in United States while others are scattered all across the globe. I enjoy learning from these young fellows, share and absorb their intelligent thoughts; it amazes me that they are all such productive, and vibrant elements of the society. But it is their patriotism which shines through them in all their attempts to do something positive for their country that makes me really proud of them.
Founder of Pakistan, Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, always praised the youth and encouraged them to come forward and take the reigns of the country in their hands, he called them the nation builders....
Today I am humbled and honored to be called a friend and a role model of one such brilliant nation builder.
Arsalan thank you so much for bestowing me this honor, I now have a huge responsibility on my shoulders to live up to.
God Bless you and may you become a role model for someone.
