aik khabar GIK mein aik plane crash ho gaya

aur GIKI kay aik student ki mail
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yesterday,
there was an incident here that substantially changed my way of
thinking. A Pakistan Airforce trainer plane crashed inside GIKI
premises today. The pilot and a gardener died on the spot. There was no
other loss of life or property. Further analysis (and some witness
reports) revealed that the trainee pilot's quick thinking had prevented
loss of 300+ lives and damage to faculty buildings. The pilot, instead
of ejecting from the plane when he knew it was going to crash,
maneuvered the plane and kept it on the (narrow) road away from the
buildings and places nearby, where students hang out during the day.
Had he ejected from the plane, he would most probably have survived but
the crash site was surrounded by buildings in which 300+ people were
working/studying at the time, a lot would have been lost. In short, he
sacrificed his life to prevent loss of other lives.
It is incidents such as these that force you to think about...well,
about everything. And this time it got me thinking about his selfless
act. It is only the leader of the Pakistan Army, who had lowered the
army in the eyes of the civilian population. Whereas the truth of the
matter is that our army, is willing to sacrifice for the country. They
stand ever-ready, to defend our homeland from any harm.
It also made me think that It is really not a leader who makes all the
difference. This single man had saved 300+ lives. It made me realize
that every-day people can also be heroes. They can also do big things.
And they can make a difference. If the pilot would have started blaming
the engineers and the government for old planes with mechanical faults,
there would not have been enough time for him to think and act as he
did. We are too lazy and love to put the blame on others.
From now on, I resolve to change my lifestyle to favor growth and
prosperity of Pakistan. I resolve to be honest, devoted and respectful
and to deliver what I promise. May Allah grant me the strength to do
so. Maybe one day I will be a hero and I will make a difference. Until
then, I live on in the hope that the day will soon come.
Lastly, I salute the pilot, for his selfless act. May Allah rest his soul in peace. Amen.
