Gulmit welcomes autumn



Autumn is creeping in which declares the beginning of wedding season in Gulmit. Tariq becomes the pioneer in kicking off the season. Autumn normally is consider as an exit of hot summer and people living in hot areas welcome the season but for the people of Pamir autumn is an alarm of cold weather, which says “Come on hurry up the winter is setting in and you have to gather fire wood for the chill”. On the other hand it is time to reflect back on the harvest, how many sacks of potatoes, wheat, and oat? Which one the best seed for potato?
It is also a time to think at other pending ceremonies which might include “Dawath”, “Thoyee”, and off course marriages.

Hi

Hope things are good with all my blog readers (if anybody reads it). I have started working for GECA as a vice chairman for education. I am looking forward to provide facilities to the youth but not limited to, so that they come to one plateform and add thier potionals to make a big whole. Having said that I feel that their is some generation gap between youth and adults (in most of the cases people determine thier generation). What is required at the moment is forget that gap come close to work togather. When I was young I had emotions to help but did not know how to help and when I am adult I know how to help but do not want youth to kill my emotions. It is like when I had teeth I did not have food and when I have food I do not have teeth. Anyway visit GECA website www.geca.org.pk and send me your valuable comments. Tayib
