My father was a engineer in Pak Army. He moved to Saudi Arab in his late 20s. From their he moved to USA in 1983 and then again move back to Pak in 1987.Groomed under a caring mother and hard working father, I belong to a family who had been migrate from Lucknow,India.

Birth: My name is Sanwal. I have younger brothers and youngest sister.I was a healthy child Mashallah se, and legend has it, when I was 2 years old, i drank 6 seven-up bottles at our annual picnic.You can call me ABCD or confused or whatever you want, but in the end it's not where I am from or what culture I belong to that is going to get me to hereafter, it's the strength of my imaan.

Adolescence: When i was 2 and half years old, My family planned on moving back to Pakistan. My Chachoo's used to tell me stories that made Pakistan seem like never-neverland. They used to paint pictures of how its so beautifull, babies & Rooti.One chicken leg broast was bigger than my forearm, all I can eat buffets, lots of food, and free juice. I liked juice back in the day. SO I was excited. In 1987 we moved to Pakistan.

Growing up: I had stages in my life, where I was conforming to values and beliefs of the people around me.I want to write more, but the truth is my life especially my family life and my childhood is a little complicated and best kept in my own personal journal....which is kept under lock and key and buried in my heart.

My Values: I value my religion more than anything else. I'll be honest, I never live up to being a good Muslim. But I acknowledge that my religion (Islam) is still Haqq (truth). My Goal in life is to be a better Muslim, to better the world, better humanity. Its hard work, and I'm willing to put effort behind it, sometimes i get tired, but something keeps me going. I love being a Muslim, I believe that our lives are given to us to spend in the worship of Allah, and the more you struggle for Allah the better you become, struggling is the essence of life. If you're not struggling, how can you establish a sense of accomplishment? or self fulfillment? No one is perfect, but when you struggle for God, and his people, to become better for them. You die, knowing you've at least gave it your best shot, at least you tried. And I believe every human being needs to try, to be good, just, and compassionate. Its hard, and experience from my life can attest to that. But this is my pursuit of happiness.

Since I came to the US in 2004, I have visited Pakistan only twice. Once in 05 and onces in 06. I loved it, especially going back and staying at the house where I spend my childhood. Yes i miss everything their even that corner store guy known as "munchi", the babaji and alot of others. I miss you all.

 Work Experience: Really, you guys care about this?

What have i learned from my life experiences?: A lot! With every twist occurs an experience and with every experience comes a lesson. 1- In your lifetime, one person will take you for granted. 2- No one understands you best, except for yourself. 2- Wherever you go there will be people who like to talk trash. You have to protect yourself – no one has your back. 3- Trust. If it’s not there, leave. 4- Take care, cherish and love the special people in your life. 5- Be strong. Through whatever it may be, always keep your head up high and believe in yourself and in your God. 6- Happiness comes with no boundaries. 7- Admit your fault and seek forgiveness from the one you’ve hurt.

Three things i value the most in life? 1- My existence. 2- My Dignity. 3- Those whom I consider family

I would love to make friends with people of any race, religion and nationality - because I believe in the Dot Com era, all those boundaries are slowly becoming prehistoric fossils of the past.
