I was participating in one of the discussion in one of the forums when suddenly a person started a thread that M.M Alam has passed away. For those who don’t know who M.M Alam is, he is a retired Pakistani fighter pilot and one of the best Pakistan Air Force has ever seen. He is a real living hero but for now he is old and not keeping good health.
Coming back to the discussion, a person started the thread that M.M Alam has passed away and next post on it was that “He is a Qadyani” For a moment I thought that this is the reason we don’t have heroes in Pakistan. We like to label our heroes and make them controversial. We as a nation are becoming pathetic. Refer to my article “Are we really a nation” by clicking Here.
We need heroes because they are the ones who define the limits for our aspirations. They are the ones who motivate us to achieve big in life. But sadly we as a nation never regard our heroes. We are the ones who even enjoy making personalities like Quaid-e-Azam and Allama Iqbal controversial.
Just pause for a moment and think who your hero is? I am sure most of you will come up with answers like “Shahrukh Khan”, “Brad Pitt”, “Roger Federer”, “Messi”, “Enrique” and this list will go on. Are they the ones who aspire us? Are they the ones who motivate us? I mean, where are we heading?
The biggest role in making these people our heroes instead of making the real heroes is our media. They always portray Shahrukh Khan and Brad Pitt and Batman as our heroes. I am talking about the Pakistani media. But there are many things that they don’t show you. Refer to the article “The Pakistan you don’t see in the news” by clicking Here to see the real Pakistan.
We still have many people who are our heroes but our media never give them air time. Our media is so pathetic that they will spend hours and hours of coverage on death of Yash Chopra but they don’t bother to give 15 minutes of air time to M.M Alam who is currently admitted in hospital. They will never bother to tell our youth about his achievements.
I will conclude my post by saying that don’t make our heroes controversial. Try to respect the people who have offered their services to our country, who have done good things for us, or the day will not be very far when every brilliant brain of Pakistan will move to some other country.
