Description

Here's the first part of the candid conversation I had with my dear Pakistani friend in the spirit of understanding each other and our unique cultural sensibilities. I hope our sincerity in bridging the divides imbued with a spirit of brotherhood and banter is self-evident. 

Love and Peace. 

As always, I humbly request your critiques and participation in this journey.
