Most of the Pakistanis living in Norway did not take that much educations in the beginning when they came to this country. They were to busy putting food on the table for their kids. But gladly that has changed. Pakistanis are taking more and more education than before and even boys are not any more behind the girls in this but are equally more into taking more education. And that is of course the best thing that could ever happen to us, so that we can show that most of the Pakistanis are quite bright. Though when people talk about education some says that education says everything about a person. If you ask me than I don`t agree on that at all. What actually makes a person is the experience they have gathered throughout their life it is not the degrees they have. Why am I saying that? Come on:) Haven`t any of you ever met the parhein likhein anpar? Sorry to say so but people whom have lots of degrees and put years and years behind on the university but doesn`t know how to behave or speak to another person. Some of them can be so rude and think “if only people had so much knowledge as I have”. I know one thing if you do have a lot of knowledge about something great! Lovely! But you see, it wouldn`t do any good unless you share it with someone, instead of bragging about how much you know. Allah raazi us bandein se hoga jokein apna ilm dosron mein baanthein or woh bina garoor kien. Some sayings from Muhammad (PBUH). One should only seek as much knowledge as that will make and keep you godfearing.
Those people I adore are those who are very enlightened but still the most down-to-earth-person I have ever known. And it is not only their education that made them that enlightened it is also their experience. Their way of talking and the way they treat other people that are close to them, always wanting to help another person, showing others also how they can become succesful:) Wanting to share all their knowledge with others without any form of pride.
No workplace will ever be without some people who will do their out most to try to make your day less brighter than theirs. Somehow they`ll try to make you feel less worthy than them. Sometimes I think that it`s because one has another color or another religion. Who knows? It could be! Though I don`t have any proof for it.. On a piece of paper that is 
Apne ap ko tasalli deti houn is thought se, that my parents use to tell me ke you`ll find some people who you can`t come along with in any way in life along with people you do get along with. That is just how it is. So running from such a place is not a good idea, because one can`t know what will happen at another workplace.
Allthough I admit not all are alike. Most of them are nice and keep their noses out of others personal business. I do love my job and I`m grateful for it as well 
Most of my colleagues give me plenty of support and we work together as a great team On the other hand there are a few of those who`m don`t know the universal values, that are difficult. I guess they know those values but neglect them. I have tried talking to them. Though must confess it does a few times make the whole situation worse. The thing is that they mostly come with remarks undirectly. That way one can`t catch them for what they are saying. It`s sad cause what will happen? Yup one way or the other they will get it back. Maybe someone close to them will have a difficult time? I hope from the bottom of my heart that people open up their eyes and sees people regardless of their color and religion and starts treating them with respect. That we all deserve. Listening to remarks like, “go back where you came from”. Make me think that I`m just as much norwegian as you are, because I`m born in this country, I pay taxes and have just as many rights as any native norwegian has. Though I`ve always felt more Pakistani than norwegian and these types of remarks makes that believe even stronger..
I`ve thought about this several times that one actually always learn best from one`s own experience rather than someone else`s experience. I believe that that is the best source of learning. Well oki let me elaborate what I mean I think it`s very important to listen to our elders be it a parent or anyone elder in the family. But to a certain age the kids or the youth should be given the opportunity to learn from their own experience. Like you for one tell the kids this is like this and that is like that, and then you give them free chance to make up their own choice, right. You know they`re not going to listen to you hehe But anyway, you give them your lecture hmm. And of course they act something you told them not to do. But you see now you have them in your hand 
Because from this they`ve learned that what the elders say is actually, well it actually makes sence and is for their own betterment. So next time you say anything to them, they`ll be thinking like he/she was right last time maybe he / she is right this time also And from there you have your kids in your hands
And another important thing never ever let the kid inside of you grow up. Once that has happened there is no way back. Like a saying in Norwegian “aldri gi slipp på barnet I deg..” But of course this does not mean that one neglects ones own responsibilities. As an adult one has certain responsibilities to ones surroundings, keep fulfilling them as best as you can:) Letting the kid in you stay alive means: let`s have some fun:) Thats all
