Bridal shower and what is wrong with it…?

-
This is the image that came into my mind when I first time heard the term Bridal Shower. My cousin’s wedding was around the corner and he told me that his wife is having a bridal shower. So that was pretty embarrassing to me of my cousin telling my about something related to his wife taking a shower. Because I did not want to look stupid so I just googled it and realized that it is just a pre-wedding party kind of thing.
Now as I was growing older I realized how these Bridal showers are trending and everyone is doing it. But who are not doing it? The poor families! I see every rich family having bridal showers and being showered with gifts but those who truly deserve it are not getting it. Is this what Bridal Shower is?
To my knowledge or what I have read. This trend started when once the daughter of a rich man fell in love with a miller’s son and wished to marry him. Her father threatened to withhold her dowry. Despite that, she decided to take the risk to marry him and when her friends came to knew about it, they decided to bring her gifts as an alternative to dowry. Her father was so touched by this action that he approved the marriage and from then on it became a custom for the bride’s friends to shower her with gifts before the wedding.
That was some history we discussed but I think that we should hold bridal showers for those girls who belong from poor families and shower them with gifts before their wedding. It is not hard to find girls like that. Just look around in your friends, your relatives, your neighborhood and you will find them. After all, what are friends for…
Let’s bring smiles to the newlyweds and make their weddings memorable!

Pakistan mn ek taraf jahan stereotypes khatam nae hoty. Larkay larkiyon ki shadi is liye nae ho pati k larka kamaata kitna hy.. larki walay jahez kitna de skty hn..

Revival of Pakistan Film Indstry

Pakistan's Film Industry revival started after the release of the film " Khuda K Liye " by Shoaib Mansoor in 2007. A lot has to be changed. Picture quality and scriptwriting and direction. Before that, we were only making B grade films with very unrealistic acting. Where the world was making films using new tools and techniques, Lollywood was still living in the '80s until movies like "Khuda K Liye" and " BOL " stepped in and changed everything. So whenever talking about the revival and steps of reforming the Pakistani cinema it is not possible not to mention those films. So our revival began from pretty serious topics and then our first action movie " War " was made that was also a hit and Pakistan's first Blockbuster movie. Talking about the movies in 2019, a lot changed. Mahira Khan and Mehwish Hayaat being the spotlight girls of our industry, It does not matter whether the movie is good or not but they are always pulling th

Education System or slavery System | If you are happy, you Won!

Have you ever thought that those schools you go in they are just institutes to turn you into a perfect slave? We expect our kids to be the perfect leaders by sending them in a system that is designed to create slaves for the leaders. Agree or not but our education system is very judgmental. The kids with good grades are praised by everyone and those who are not getting good grades? What about them? The school I was in, there they divide kids into three sections. Most Racist School ever! 1. Super Section (The Extraordinary kids who they think we're the most intelligent) 2.   Section A (Kids who were getting below 90%) 3.      Section B (kids below 80%) 4.   Section C (in this section were those kids about whom the school administration thought that they had no future) I was in Section A, but I was always having my ups and downs, so I was constantly in a battle because I was one of the weakest students there. Sadly, our system is not designed to make leaders i
