They Say A Sinner's Tears...

-
They say a sinner's tears
Eradicate his sins and fears

But what about a sinner like me?
One who repents and repeats

The one who can no longer cry
Whose tear ducts are forever dry

Whose heart is now merely a lump of coal
Whose soul is the blackest of all souls

Who does not qualify to enter paradise
Around whom only hellfire can rise

He says, Who can forgive sins except Him
But what do I do when my hope grows dim

USMLE stands for United States Medical Licensing Examination. In order to practice in the U.S., all medical students whether IMGs (international medical graduates) or AMGs (American Medical Graduates) have to give this series of exams. Only then does an international medical graduate become ECFMG certified and legally allowed to practice in the United States. ( ECFMG stands for educational commission for foreign medical students. ECFMG acts as the registration and score-reporting agency for the USMLE for foreign medical students/graduates, or in short, it acts as the designated Dean's office for International Medical Graduates in contrast to the American Medical Graduates). It conducts three examinations: Step 1, Step 2CK, Step 2CS. The ECFMG certificate is issued to a physician if he or she passes the above the three exams within a time period of seven years.)

Reflection of my moon

Last night, your faded memory came to me, As in the wilderness, spring comes quietly, As slowly in desert, moves the breeze, As to a sick man, without cause, comes peace! The moon of my night, an oasis for my deserted soul and a heavenly shelter from cold buffets of life, was my mother. It was a scenic day glittering with the serene sunshine in the blue sky. That day, she had completely recovered from the demon of hepatitis. The vivacity of life was sparkling in her eyes. The omen of life had totally exalted her to a novel perseverance. She had grabbed the silky life with her caressing hands. The life to her meant her children. The moon of Ramadan was surely an omen of joy for us. We had scheduled our sister's wedding. In that reference, my father and mother were to leave for another city. I bade them farewell under God's heaven and saw them off. "Life is going to be beautiful," I smiled to myself and went to the bed. Suddenly at midnight, violent knocking at ...

آ دکھاؤں تجھے چیخوں کا خاموشی سے نکلنا، پھر مر جانا۔۔                                                                           زندگی میں جہاں خوشیوں پر رقص ہوتا ہے، وہیں غم و ماتم کا عکس بھی ہوتا ہے، آسانیاں آتیں ہیں مگر مشکلات کے ساتھ۔۔ بعض دفعہ مشکل  نہیں لگتا خود کو درد سے نکال لینا، اذیتوں کے سمندر کی گہرائی میں ڈوب کر کنارے تک ابھرنا اور یہ ثابت کر دینا کہ اگر درد میں دم ہے تو ہم بھی کم نہیں۔۔ مگر ہاں ہر بار، ہر جگہ، ہر کسی کے ساتھ ایسا نہیں ہوتا، جب درد انسان کو کرچی کرچی کردینا چاہے اور سمیٹنے کو شیشہ گر بھی نہ ہو کہ کرچیاں ہی سمیٹ لے، جب ماضی، کسی کے حال اور مستقبل کو اس طرح گھیر لے کہ جینا اور مرنا ایک سا ہو ...
