First of all I want to greet all my friends on the New Year with the hope it will bring peace and happiness to all of them. I am writing this diary at a time when the last sun of 2008 is just disappearing from the sky in Peshawar. With tears in my eyes I pray for all who have been suffering in different parts of the world due to cruel policies of world rulers.

::::::::

This is my desire to see the sun of 2009 with the declaration from the world rulers that from now onward there will be peace in the whole world. No mother in the world will weep. No wife will be feeling concern for her husband

After 20 days Barack Obama will be in the White House. Now this place of world mightiest rulers will be a symbol of peace. Humanity suffered a lot due to the cruel policies of rulers. Millions of people have been killed without any reason.

According to tribal elders, the United States, the sole super power of the world can also take lead in peace. There might be some people, who will disagree with me, but this is the fact that war on terrorism was also necessary. Therefore, let us pay tribute to US President George W. Bush on his departure from White House. I have suffered a lot during the war on terrorism, but still I consider that war on terrorism was necessary

Let us forget the past and work for new world, a world of peace, happiness and love. Love to all, hatredness for no one. This is my slogan. Greeting to all my friends with the prayers that the New Year may bring more happiness.

The End
