My Quaid, my Jinnah, thank you a trillion times for fighting for my rights and for giving me a place I can call my home, proudly.
We love you and promise we will not let you down. We have come far since you left us, and we have far to go, rest assured your children are holding strong. Rest In Peace.

Sorry, it was off-topic, but I needed to say it in public.
