I am genuinely concerned now that the books (winds of winter and a dream of spring) will be released in my lifetime

AoA yall, i was travelling today from Sialkot to Isb, and stopped to pray asar ki namaz, i cleaned out some empty chips packets and a peach malt bottle looked around for a dustbin or any sort of litter disposal area…… i was saw only one small shop and i walked there took me like 15s to reach there. Had to tell the guy i was throwing it on the bin placed outside his shop because he had a perplexed look on his face like i was about to take a piss in the bin.

I prayed asar and when i went to my car my father handed me some more used tissues and 2 more empty cans. The shop owner could see us and as i turned to go towards him, mid-way the man (in his late 40s) put up his hand to stop me and said to throw it there, i was confused as to where he was pointing towards…. turned out he was point at the small paani ki naali (coming from the masjids wuzu area) going in the main sewerage nullah.

And not only this he then said alowed to throw it there when insisted on not throwing it there.

But Alas the shopkeeper was having non of it.

I turned back to my car at that point laughing at the mentality our people have developed, dont get me wrong i have nothing against the people of that are, but yaar for heavens sake this is your locality you live here and youre keen on making it trash bin instead of you getting up and emptying you basket yourself for of litter (which it is meant to collect).

After all this what made me laugh is when you hear the type of comments or the general discussions the general folk of pakistan have…..making comments on the country’s policies/standings/law enforcement auths

Bas i think lamba ho ra hay

Just wanted to say the change starts with ourselves, with us cleaning our dishes before commenting on others on how dirty they are.
