Defending My Zip Code

I always considered myself to be the girl who had a soft heart, kind and loved without measure. I always told my kids to give more than you take. I might not be a superhero, but I could certainly depend my ZIP code.
My sweet angel breezed into my life and put a few things into perspective. What does it mean really to defend your ZIP code. Every single day in Pakistan.My family gives to those in need. Gives more than they take or receive. They have demonstrated what it truly means by living generously.

I have lived such a privileged life. I am really grateful, profoundly in awe. Each day embrace a heart full of gratitude and a purpose to walk gently on this earth.

I thought I was humble, kind, gentle and generous. Today and everyday, I have lessons to learn. Take a chance it’s the season of perpetual hope and glorious Christmas trees with the twinkly, sparkly lights. I know that my Shohar, my Ami, my Abu, my Bahi, my Api’s and my sweet Bhanja, angel of my life and my precious one yet to be born. Spoiler alert pretty sure I’m getting another Bhanja!
People live and exist every day, with no privilege, no opportunity and yet most of us take all the things we are GIVEN for granted. So I never was a super hero and defending my zip code was simply an aspiration, I really didn’t a have a single clue. Take a look around at the real hero’s of the world today and every single day.
PS I have already named a few of mine.
