 * About the same time next year, there was another blast near our school. We knew it was a bomb blast this time instantly. Let’s face it was the second one just the following year. We were all better organized. We automatically gathered outside in the main ground…our morning assembly and bomb blast gathering area. **


 * This time I didn’t go looking for my daughter. I knew she would be fine. However, I still let the girls call home from my mobile. They had to talk to their parents and their parents had to hear their voice. It was important for them to call home and it was important for me to provide them with this opportunity at this crucial time. Some girls fainted, teachers fainted too…just routine in a bomb blast. Again there were no major causalities inside the school premises. **


 * After this blast, the schools in Lahore were closed for several days. My children were very happy, as were all the children in Lahore. But I was very upset. **


 * What kind of a nation is this? The children are not going to school, because it is not safe…. is this our future. How in the world are we going to progress? How are we going to get out of this mess? A life without schools is the end of human civilization! Are we animals? Or are we worse off than animals? We mercilessly kill our own kind. Even animals don't do that. **


 * I know a student in Grade 9 in Australia, she has almost all of her face pierced, she says she does it for 'the adrenalin rush'. I smile and say to myself she doesn't really know what this term means or does she. **

__** Moral of the story **__
 * Bomb blasts have become a way of life for the people in Pakistan. We must learn to live with them in harmony. **


 * I am going back home...my students need me! **
