  • What were you doing 10, 20, 30... years ago?

    Depending on how old you are, what were you doing 10, 20, 30..... years ago?

    For me lets see

    In 2001: I was still new to Canada adjusting to life here. I was in high school, mostly hanging with friends and not focusing on studies. In this year, I also got my first part-time job working for a clothing store at a mall. Also in this year, my heart was broken, since I really liked one girl, but I could never tell her this.

    In 1991: I was only about 7 or 8 years old, I was living in Saudi Arabia during the gulf war years, those were really interesting times. I remember seeing many places bombed at night.

    Ten years ago, I was in a safe place; The Land Where Nothing Wild Will Ever Grow.

    Eleven years ago, that changed.

    But that was then and this is now...

    Why look back?

        Around 69 or 70 years ago, I was born, but I did not know at that time. After that, it is a long long story. May be one day I will write it, but not now. Right now I am busy writing a novel since I finished and published a collection of short stories which is in Pashto.

                              That was a little bit longer than 20 years ago brother . It was a very bad period , thanks to Allah you , me and many others are safe . When the war started we were in Libya on a vacation , my father went back to Kuwait later during the invasion while we returned after end of the war .

                              Are you 27-28 ?
