Yet, once again, another tragedy bothers me as I write this. Jinnah, as the talks have confirmed, is deciding to make another Pakistan. For the purpose of avoiding a civil war, I have agreed to him creating a separate nation Pakistan- solely for the purpose of no more riots and fights. This decision, I pray, will eventually help the Muslims realize that divided, we will not last too long. I wish Jinnah could just see how we could mediate the efforts between the two groups- as I have done before by my fasting. But this time matters seem out of hand once again.
Putting aside this thought- I pray for the betterment of Pakistan as well. Pakistani's should live just as equally as we do- there is simply no need for discrimination. I will therefore go to give a lecture in Pakistan and explain how we are all still the same, and now that all Muslims live in another nation, we(Hindus) should not be forgotten... We are all still equals. I still consider the Pakistani's my brothers.
I am looking forward to walking out into my free India now, as I prepare for the long journey to Pakistan tomorrow. Once again I hope for the best- good bye for now diary...
