Lahore's most anticipated "Tamasha Festival 2017" is just around the corner

Eeshah Omer 03:45 PM | 21 Mar, 2017
Lahore's most anticipated

One hundred years from now,

It will not matter,

What kind of car I drove,

What kind of house I lived in,

How much I had in my bank,

Nor what my clothes looked like.

One hundred years from now,

It will not matter,

What kind of school I attended,

What kind of typewriter I used,

How large or small my church.

But the world may be. . .

A little better because. . .

I was important in the life of a child.

~Author Unknown

If most of us think along the same lines, we can definitely hope for a better future ahead.
