Tradition: Being part of the beliefs, customs or way of life of a particular group of people that have not changed for long time. &, Following older methods and ideas rather than modern or new one is called tradition. Moreover, the beliefs and customs are more important for a society than modern ideas.
it is a ritual, belief or object passed down within a society, still maintained in the present, with origins in the past. Common examples include holidays or impractical but socially meaningful clothes (like lawyer wigs or military officer spurs), but the idea has also been applied to social norms such as greetings.
Respect: Respect for any one is important because that shows our character. And giving respect to someone is a part of moral ethics. As far as it is concern with our family and other peoples, it shows our respect, love and attachment with our beloved ones.
Personal Goals:
Ø  I wanted to be an engineer, but I could not achieve the required goal.
Ø  I wanted to be an actor, but my family did not allow me.
Ø  I wanted to be an artist but i could not achieve that level, even after hours of practice.
Relationships: The way in which two or more concepts, objects, or people are connected, or the state of being connected. Honestly it depends on how you think what a relationship means.

Role of Women: Role of women is very important in every field of life from managing the household to looking after his children and all other works. but our society does not give the women that respect ,she should have.

§  Personal ambitions Vs traditional values
§  Ambiguous status of females in Pakistan society
§  Double standards
§  Relationship with friends & enemies
Your Success or Failure in Life is no one’s fault but your own...It’s not your parents fault, it's not a past abusive relationships fault, it’s not your teachers fault, It's not your parents fault who didn't show you or ever tell you they loved you, It's not your employer's fault who won’t give you a raise....It's nobody’s fault .If you think the only people who ever succeed in life are the ones whose life has been free from pitfalls, and hurts, and angers, and trials you are sorely mistaken... It's the people who despite these failures use them as motivating factors to help others out of the mess they are in.....Without a test you don't have a testimony! Many people have different ambitions in life so the word ambition would have different definitions, depending on whom you ask. To me ambition is a burning (urge) desire to achieve your goals or succeed. Ambition is related to dedication, motivation and time. I have many ambitions to achieve in a set period of time. For example my education, I would like to complete my Bachelor’s in IBIT within four years. So time motivates me to achieve my ambitions.
Ambition in other words is the motive force needed to propel all of us to work towards our set cherished goals. It is the dynamic inner force that has led people from all walks of life to cleave to a new path, set a new vision.
Traditional values refer to those beliefs, moral codes, and mores that are passed
down from generation to generation within a culture
The status of women in Pakistan varies considerably across classes, regions, and the rural/urban divide due to uneven socioeconomic development and the impact of tribal, feudal, and capitalist social formations on women's lives. The Pakistani women of today enjoy a better status than most Muslim and Middle Eastern women. However, on an average, the women's situation is one of systemic gender subordination, although there have been attempts by the government and enlightened groups to elevate the status of women in Pakistani society Double standards have. Adults set one group of standards for their own conduct while prescribing another for the conduct of "The Younger Generation". Mainliners in society have reserved privileges for themselves while denying basic human rights and imposing strict limitations on certain minorities. One standard is for men, another for women, usually imposed by male members of society. Our friends can show our real face. How we are? They can judge our positive & negative points. Besides this our enemies are much important too. Our real face that what we are can be judged by enemies too rather than our friends.



 

Kevin Carter (Kevin Carter Pulitzer award photograph)





Kevin Carter (Kevin Carter Pulitzer award photograph)
It is true that Kevin Carter won a Pulitzer Prize for his famous photograph. It is also true that Carter left the scene after taking the photograph without helping the child. However, it is too simplistic to suggest that he committed suicide as a direct result of his experience with this child as implied in the message. It is also unfair to judge his actions without having some understanding of the man's state of mine along with the terrible conditions in Sudan at the time the photograph was taken.
As sad as this is it makes you grateful and appreciative of the way we live and the things we have. It just proves no matter how bad things seem there is always someone suffering more than we will ever know.
Have a close look at both of the photographs & read the messages below them. Forwarding this message to as many people as you can won't fulfill a wish; nor deleting it will cause any misfortune; but it’s our moral duty to be concerned...towards humanity
“PULITZER PRIZE “winning photo taken in 1994 during the Sudan famine.
The picture depicts a famine stricken child crawling towards an United Nations food camp, located a kilometer away. The vulture is waiting for the child to die so that it can eat it. This picture shocked the whole world. No one knows what happened to the child, including the photographer Kevin Carter who left the place as soon as the photograph was taken. Three months later he committed suicide due to depression.
Dear God, I promise I will never waste my food no matter how bad it can taste and how full I may be. I pray that He will protect this little boy, guide and deliver him away from his misery. I pray that we will be more sensitive towards the world around us and not be blinded by our own selfish nature and interests. I hope this picture will always serve as a reminder to us that how fortunate we are and that we must never ever take things for granted.
