I had always wondered what our neighbors across the borders would be like, for everyone would have their own views ready to share when it came to the topic of Indo-Pak. I had never otherwise seen such diverging arrays of views for every aspect raised of this topic, and although I believed it is good to keep discussions open in order for commonality to be found, it is often that the points of the discussion get stuck on the same loops. Walking in circles would inevitably get us nowhere. As citizens of the nations, we know that a future of peace and prosperity with each other is only possible when we open our minds along with our hearts, when we listen and talk about matters of tolerance and understanding and not only breach the topic for skimming over the important aspects. We need to talk and continue the talk, but talk about shifting perspectives, talk about the good, talk about the change and the progress and see for yourself how alternatives and hope present themselves.
