New Year Resolution

So, another year is about to end. And a new chapter is about to start. To be honest I don’t give much importance to new year. It is merely an end and start of an imaginative cycle that we have created, aka The Calendar. There are many other such cycles, three that I use, the Islamic, the Persian and this one (Gregorian). So, it means three new years.
And there have been many such calendars in the past which doesn’t even exist anymore. Many calendars have faded away but life continue to move on.
Likewise, I do not give much importance to yearly resolutions. But instead I have daily resolutions. Which renews with every sunrise. And that is “To be a better person than I was the day before. To be more knowledgeable, mature, evolved, and experienced than the previous sunrise.” For me every sunrise is a new year, a new opportunity, another chance…

BIAS

So, Maulana Tariq Jameel, have been invited at Punjab University today to conduct a sermon and due to which classes of all the departments between 10 a.m to 2 p.m. was cancelled.
I have got nothing against Tariq Jameel or religious sermons, but what I’m against is “imposition”. Today I had no say in deprivation of my classes whether I wanted to attend the sermon or not.

Secondly, another unfair aspect is the freedom, special treatment and protocol the religious, or in other words #TheRightWing, content gets while there is a complete restriction and crack down on the alternative perspective, or in other words #TheLeftWing.
Let me make it simpler with an example, had it been people like Taimur Rahman, Ammar Ali Jan or #AliWazir, getting this level of freedom and protocol is far off question, they wouldn’t have even been allowed to speak. Such privileges are only available for the likes of #OryaMaqboolJan or #TariqJameel.
There is no room for alternative views. This is what I’m against, complete freedom to one perspective while complete crack down on the other. This act, on itself is very Undemocratic and Un-Islamic.
