to Islam. The credit does not really go to the religion, but it was because of the people. It is very same case why people like Americans. The main idea of the examples is a proof that people are influenced a lot by other people. If a person has positive outlook, then other people in the society will of course copy that person. The most honorable thing in the world for most people is belief and if positive outlook can change belief then it can change anything. A person with positive outlook is like a shining star on sky for sailors.

    Every development is a change, but every change is not a development. To bring development, the community should have overall positive outlook, but every individual is equally a part of the overall. Life is not about to live for one self, rather life is to serve others. A candle burns itself and gives light to others. Trees are standing calmly in the blinking sun of hot summer and provide with shade to a tired traveler. In the same way, creation of man is also for helping others, and helping is not possible unless a person has positive outlook and thinks about the unlucky sector of community. It can all happen as a result of positive outlook of an individual.

It can be concluded that an individual has great impact on society. Positive outlook of a person can benefit the community because every action done is a fruit of a seed, the outlook.

obviously. Expecting of changing or affecting others without changing oneself can be put in the circle of oxymoron. The first thing needed in the society is to start with oneself. It is the idea of inside out. Positive outlook makes a person responsible and charming part of society because all the actions are servants of the outlook of the person. Thus having a good personality by a positive outlook is the best contribution to the society.

      After making oneself a positive person in the society it is time to affect others. Humans have the same characteristics as mirror. If a person laughs in front of a mirror, it never cries. Similarly, the relationship between people depends on how they treat each other. If a person keeps positive outlook about others, then there is no doubt that others will have the same response. This chain of positive responses make a network in the society and leads to success and happiness .millions of books have been written, thousand of ideas have been introduced, several religions are present in the world but the only thing which has affected man is a person’s way of thinking and living.

It is nature of the nature that things are formed by the combination of other things.

There is no concept of right or wrong, but it is the way one thinks. Some of the good things are obvious but most of them are complicated, and they can be only reached by having a positive outlook. Positive outlook shapes one’s life in a better way, influences others positively and makes a better society.

Taste of diversity(BUBW)

SEED OF ACCEPTANCE (BUBW)

Life is all about learning but we never notice how much we learn every day. People grow up but never notice that they are growing up till they are old, in the same way learning can happen without noticing it. This thrust of learning made me attend a conference held in Disney World Florida called BUBW “Better Understanding for a Better World”. Before going to the conference, a lot of imaginary images were being formed, but to be honest the conference was so great and mind-blowing that after it ended I had to tell my imaginations that they were very less expecting. Now my words are totally hesitant to describe the conference because like my imagination they think themselves to be very limited, but just trying to talk about ocean in the language of water drops.

    The ice breaking game on the first day stunned me by introducing thirty one different countries. In my entire life I have never been to such a garden of diversity where I could smell the scent of different flowers of different colors and scent. After that, it was an awesome part of my life when Christians, Muslims, Jews and Hindus were taking pizza from the same table ignoring the physical boundaries of geography. Very few people experience such an experience, and if they do, they are called lucky.

   Next day, all those charming flowers were watered by sessions and talks by Imam Bashar Arafat and others. We discussed the reasons which cause disturbance in the world, and how to deal with those challenges. Role of youth in the global world were discussed too and there was a very great lecture on leadership as well. There can’t be any more important topics than these in our today’s world for youths and these really changed our views and made us think!

On Friday, we went to a church where we were stuffed with information about Christianity, then to synagogue where we were given lecture about the ancestor of all the main religions, Judaism. After that we spent a long time in Mosque. As it was Friday, so we could attend the Friday special prayer. I could see the relief and comfort Muslim kids got after the prayer and kids who didn’t attend the prayer were happy to see Muslims bowing before God and listening to Khutba (the talk before Friday prayer). Then there was an open panel discussion where religious leaders from Christianity, Islam and Judaism talked about all those religions and answered different questions. This talk changed many of our stereotypes and I could feel that all these religions are fruits of the same tree but just from different branches.

   Students gave presentations about their countries.Pakistan, India and Bangladesh mega group gave a presentation together. This gathering has happened after a long time. This gathering of subcontinent was giving me such a different feeling which can’t be explained in words. We couldn’t come with differences between these three countries but there were a lot of same things like language and we all sing the same songs.

Besides all this learning, there was a lot of fun too. Trying to talk and sing in all those different languages. It was so sweet when all other countries were joining to sing “Jivae Pakistan”. Visiting all those fun stuff in Disney world don’t need to be explained like different countries, magic kingdom, animal kingdom, etc. The best part was when it was raining and 31 different countries were taking shower under the same shower.

    After four days, BUBW came to an end with giving us a new start, lot of great friends, unforgettable memories and unlimited fun. After the conference when I checked my Facebook, there were 60 friend requests waiting, this is how we will stay connected. It was not a religious conference but conference of religion of humanity. I am thankful to BUBW administration and American government to arrange this conference. A lot of money was spent on this conference but it was a lot better than making a weapon. It changed inside of mine and there is a ray of hope that these conferences will change our world by making bridges of peace and burning the fire of heartedness by the shade of love. One day we will feel proud to be a part of a better world!
