Essay: Why I Love Pakistan

Pakistan is my mother land.I was born and brought up in this country .Patriotism is a
natural feeling.Man cannot help loving the native place where he saw the light.I love
Pakistan because its soil has gone into my bones and my being.My flesh and blood
are the product of this piece of earth.I eat its food , drink  its water and breathe its air.So
loving Pakistan is in fact loves myself.I have become used to its climate,its vegetables and
fruits which cannot be available any where else.

I love Pakistan because of my family members, relatives and friends who reside in this
country .These persons are a part of my life ,and I cannot think of living without them.They
share my joys and sorrows , and have made my life charming and enjoyable .Indeed ,it is for
the happiness and welfare of my  parents and brothers and sisters that I am living .Of I am given
an option of getting double span of life in the next century in exchange for the present
period .I would not agree because it would be without the dear faces of my friends and
relatives to see.

I live Pakistan because it is not merely a piece of land to me but a symbol of every
thing that I cherish .The type of social life found in the country, its customs ,Traditions and
moral values have gone deep into my outlook of life .I an a Muslim by birth, and it is only in
Pakistan that can get the spiritual pleasure of praying in a mosque along with my other
Muslims brethren.How can I enjoy life in a society where adulteration is not considered a sin?
How can I be happy in country where I cannot talk to the people in my mother-tongue, or
cannot hear punjabi and urdu songs?The cultural life in Pakistan has gone deep into my
blood, and it makes this country very dear to me.

Pakistan is dear to me also for the sacrifices made by our ancestors to win this
homeland .This is the land where Muhammad Bin Qasim brought the torch of Islam, and
where the great Mughals ruled for centuries .We has to struggle hard to liberate it from the
clutches of the English imperialists and prejudiced Hindus.it is this country where we are
trying to establish a truly Islamic system of life .Our brave soldiers like Major Aziz Bhatti
shed their blood to protect this land from the evil designs of the aggressors
Every handful of its dust is mixed with the blood of these martyrs; the bones of our
illustrious ancestors are buried in this country and make this land sacred to us .

I love Pakistan also because of its interest in my well-being .it is only in Pakistan that I
enjoy full security of life , property and honour .I  can buy here any kind of property ,establish
any kind of business or join any government service.it is only in Pakistan that I enjoy the
right to vote and can stand as  a service .It is only in Pakistan that I enjoy the right to vote and
can stand as a candidate for any office ,even of the president of Pakistan.The rights and
liberties available to me in this country cannot be guaranteed by any other government under
the sun .I love Pakistan with my heart and soul ,and am  ever ready to make  the greatest
sacrifice for its survival and progress.
