The Concept of a "Super Job" in Pakistan: A Pathway to the Future

Image
  The Concept of a "Super Job" in Pakistan: A Pathway to the Future In recent years, the term “super job” has gained popularity across the global job market, including in Pakistan. A super job is a hybrid role that combines several traditional jobs into one, often integrating advanced skills like data analysis, digital tools, communication, leadership, and problem-solving. Unlike conventional jobs, which focus on a single area of expertise, super jobs demand a wider skill set, greater adaptability, and technological proficiency. In Pakistan’s evolving economy, such roles are becoming increasingly valuable and are seen as a gateway to future-ready careers.   Characteristics of a Super Job A super job in Pakistan typically merges responsibilities across various domains—administration, technology, customer service, and management. For instance, a digital marketing strategist today is not only expected to plan campaigns but also analyze data, run social media, and even coor...

Cancer symptoms can vary depending on the type and location of the disease. Some signs are very subtle and easy to ignore

Image
  Cancer is a disease that develops silently in the body, often going unnoticed until it reaches a more advanced stage. However, early detection can make a big difference in successful treatment. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to unusual changes in the body. While many of these symptoms can be related to other health conditions, they can also be early warning signs of cancer. Here are some common symptoms that people may notice before being diagnosed with cancer: 1. Unexplained Weight Loss One of the earliest signs of cancer is unexpected weight loss. Losing more than 5 kilograms (10 pounds) without trying could be a cause for concern. This is especially common in cancers of the stomach, pancreas, lungs, or esophagus. The body may use up energy rapidly or stop absorbing nutrients properly due to cancer growth. 2. Persistent Fatigue Feeling tired all the time, even after rest, can be a symptom of cancer. This kind of fatigue doesn’t improve with sleep and may g...

"The Indian drone attack on Karachi National Stadium"

Image
   "The Indian drone attack on Karachi National Stadium" It was a balmy evening in Karachi. The National Stadium buzzed with excitement as thousands of fans poured in to witness the final of the Pakistan Super League. The crowd waved flags, beat drums, and chanted slogans in support of their teams. The air was electric with anticipation. Among the spectators was 12-year-old Ali, a cricket fanatic who had convinced his father to take him to the stadium. Wearing his favorite team’s jersey, Ali sat in the bleachers, eyes wide with excitement, completely unaware of the shadow that loomed over the city. Unbeknownst to the crowd, miles away across the border, an Indian military operation had gone rogue. A stealth drone, armed and autonomous, had been launched on a classified surveillance mission. But due to a system malfunction — possibly tampered with by a hacker group — its target parameters shifted. What was meant to be an intelligence-gathering flight turned into a weapon...

Healthy Food: The Foundation of a Better Life

Image
  Healthy Food: The Foundation of a Better Life Healthy food is not just a trend or a temporary lifestyle choice—it is the foundation of a better, more energetic, and longer life. What we eat has a direct impact on our body and mind. A well-balanced diet that includes fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats provides the essential nutrients our bodies need to function properly. In contrast, processed foods high in sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats can lead to serious health problems like obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and more. One of the major benefits of healthy food is that it strengthens the immune system. Fresh fruits like oranges, strawberries, and kiwi are rich in vitamin C, which boosts immunity. Vegetables such as spinach, carrots, and broccoli are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that help fight off infections. When our immune system is strong, we are less likely to fall ill and can recover quickly if we do get sick. Healthy...

yoga and me

Image
  Yoga and Me Yoga entered my life at a time when I was searching for peace—both physical and emotional. What started as a casual experiment turned into a deep personal journey that continues to shape my thoughts, body, and spirit every day. Today, yoga is not just a practice I do on a mat; it has become a way of life—a path that connects me to my inner self and to the world around me. When I first tried yoga, I was skeptical. The slow movements, the deep breathing, and the silence all felt unfamiliar. I had always associated fitness with fast-paced routines and sweating it out in a gym. Yoga, however, taught me a different definition of strength. It showed me that true power comes from balance, patience, and awareness. My initial motivation was physical health. I was dealing with back pain due to long hours spent at a desk job and irregular sleep patterns. A friend recommended yoga for flexibility and posture correction. I started with beginner sessions on YouTube, and gradu...

Pakistan-India Tensions: A Complex and Longstanding Conflict

Image
  Pakistan-India Tensions: A Complex and Longstanding Conflict The relationship between Pakistan and India remains one of the most complex and tense in South Asia. Since their partition in 1947, the two countries have experienced a series of conflicts, border skirmishes, and diplomatic standoffs that have made peace elusive. The roots of their tensions lie in historical grievances, territorial disputes, religious divisions, and competing national interests.   Historical Background The partition of British India in 1947 led to the creation of two independent nations—Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan. The division was accompanied by one of the bloodiest mass migrations in history, as millions of Hindus and Muslims crossed borders to join their respective nations. This traumatic event sowed seeds of hatred and mistrust that persist to this day. One of the most contentious issues since partition has been the status of the region of Jammu and Kashmir. Both I...

Good Friday: A Day of Reflection, Sacrifice, and Hope

Image
  Good Friday: A Day of Reflection, Sacrifice, and Hope Good Friday is one of the most solemn and significant days in the Christian calendar. Observed during Holy Week, it commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. Despite the sorrowful nature of the day, it is called “Good” Friday—a paradox that reflects deeper spiritual meanings and the hope that comes through sacrifice and redemption. The Meaning Behind Good Friday Good Friday takes place on the Friday before Easter Sunday and is part of the Paschal Triduum, which includes Holy Thursday (the Last Supper), Good Friday, and Holy Saturday. On this day, Christians remember the suffering and death of Jesus, who, according to Christian belief, was crucified to atone for the sins of humanity. The word “Good” in Good Friday may seem confusing to some, given that it marks a day of mourning. The term is believed to have originated from the obsolete meaning of “good,” which once meant “holy.” Others inte...

A Comparative Analysis of Donald Trump and Imran Khan

Image
  A Comparative Analysis of Donald Trump and Imran Khan Donald Trump and Imran Khan are two prominent political figures who emerged as non-traditional leaders in their respective countries, the United States and Pakistan. Despite operating in vastly different political, social, and economic contexts, both have drawn comparisons due to their populist rhetoric, media presence, and outsider status in politics. This article explores the similarities and differences between the two leaders in terms of their backgrounds, leadership styles, governance, and public appeal. Background and Rise to Power Donald Trump, a real estate mogul and reality TV star, entered politics with no prior government or military experience.

He ran as a Republican, but his approach often defied traditional party lines. Imran Khan, on the othe...

The Love of Sunday

It is not just the last day of the week but a symbol of rest, reflection, and renewal. Across cultures and lifestyles, Sunday holds a special place in people’s hearts. For many, it is a day of relaxation, family bonding, spiritual connection, and self-care. The love of Sunday goes beyond a mere break from routine; it is a cherished pause that allows the soul to breathe.   One of the most endearing aspects of Sunday is the slow pace it brings. Unlike the hustle of weekdays, Sunday offers a chance to wake up late, sip tea or coffee leisurely, and enjoy the morning without rushing to meet deadlines or beat traffic. It is a day when alarms are silenced and the ticking of the clock feels less urgent. This quiet, unhurried beginning sets the tone for a day meant to be savored. Family and togetherness often define Sundays. It is the day when families gat...

Commando 4

Image
  Commando 4 In December 1971, as the Indo-Pak war reaches its boiling point, Pakistan's military high command authorizes a secret mission—codenamed Operation Zarrar. Its goal: extract a crucial informant named Wali Rehman, a former intelligence officer now in Indian custody deep within occupied Kashmir. The mission’s fate rests on one man—Major Asif Khan, an elite Pakistani SSG commando known for his daring resolve and unmatched skills. Asif Khan, son of a war veteran, joined the Special Services Group to serve with honor. Trained in guerrilla warfare, fluent in Gojri and Kashmiri, he is the perfect man for the job. Haunted by memories of past battles, Asif is not only fighting for his country but also to silence the ghosts of fallen comrades. The mission begins with an airdrop near the Line of Control under the cover of night. Accompanied by two handpicked operatives—Captain Haris and Corporal Zameer—the team sets off into the snow-covered forests. Enemy patrols lurk in eve...
