She called me handsome! A brief profound moment with the grande dame: #China's Assistant Foreign Affairs Minister #HuaChunying. Her contagious laugh planted in me deep seed of respect. Her handshake lingered in palms & her gravitas filled air! Power rarely comes in such elegance!
@khigirlinlhr I understand where you're coming from. What scares me the most is when the plane suddenly starts to "drop" as if it's stalling instead of experiencing regular turbulence. That feeling of a fall in my stomach.... Hate that! Triggers full-blown panic attack.

@express_experts@navidjourno Precisely! The PML-N leadership actually dropped all last pretences of anti-establishment veneer. Infinite cringe at how they readily raced to form another hybrid regime, outdoing all others.
What manner of darkness infects hearts that revel in shattering God's dwellings? An affront to the heart of humanity! Such acts remain a devastating indictment of state still struggling to tame such misguided passions, and a searing wound on our collective conscience. #Jaranwala

A #Uyghur restaurant — 'Shabnam'. A woman named Guljaan with light olive complexion ushered me in with therapeutic "marhhaba". The aroma of coffee & sheesha commingled with sinful kebabs perfuming the air. A devilishly handsome man reffered to me as 'pretty boy'. ❤️
