We should treat everyone with respect and appreciation
If we examine, we are a little stingy in the matter of expressing gratitude and even in the people we live among, these habits have not been awakened. I do not know why. We are very good people, we are lovely people, we provide good and happy things for each other. But we are stingy in the matter of praise and appreciation. This custom has not even become a habit here and we have not considered that praise and appreciation is also obligatory. If it is not obligatory somewhere, then it should be done so that unity and harmony are created between humans. Unfortunately, here, people are praised after their departure. If you go to the largest graveyard in Lahore, Miani Sahib, you will see many books on which the name of the deceased, date of birth and date of death are written. Then there will also be descriptive words along with it. Now that poor person cannot go out and see what is written on the book. It was not useful for him. It would have been better if he had been praised and appreciated while he was alive. It is a source of support for him to know that the people around him are very encouraging people. There is an incident where some companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) were there before him. The new ones came and said, "O Messenger of Allaah, these companions of yours seem very dear to me and I like them. I am not very familiar with them, but they are very kind-hearted." The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, "Did you tell them this?" He said, "Yes, I did not." He said, "Go immediately, follow them and put your hand on their shoulder and say, "I like you, I like you." So they ran after them and said, "I love you very much." Obviously, they must have responded to his love with love. We are lacking in some love. It is not that we do not have it in our hearts. I think we have enough love in our hearts. Our people sing songs and tell stories. We are very loving people, but we cannot express it with our tongues. I do not know why. And the expression of praise and scolding should be spontaneous and spontaneous.

Why Do Rare Books Command Higher Prices?
The Anatomy of Value in Rare and Old Books. Rare and old books tend to fascinate collectors not only for their nostalgia, but for the history and culture that shapes them. So why do these foray books fetch higher prices in the market? It is equally important for collectors and casual bibliophiles to understand factors that add value to rare books.

Five Broken Blades
I don’t mind when a story is so clear you know making its point that there is going to be a second book to it, that it is not just a one-off story. But what I don’t like, is when that is done in the last 50 pages of the book, where you are not sure leading up to the ending if there is more story or if this is just going to end.

The Flying Machine, AI, and the Fear of Progress
This article is the first part of what I can see being an ongoing series possibly of discussions with AI - in this case ChatGPT. Ai is the new technology that has everyone a quiver and instead of listening to other people tell me I should be afraid of it - that it's bad - it produces a lot of garbage...I decided to find out for myself and explore it.

The Book's Too Big Without You
Introduction Modifying the title from The Police song but these are just some thoughts that I have when I see these absolutely huge libraries of physical books. I have about ten bookcases in my house and hundreds of unread books on my Kindle, and I am also a very slow reader.

The effects of culture in our lives
I have been specifically asked to present something to you about culture. In this regard, today's program may be a little different, but I will definitely try to easily go through the difficult stages that have been or are being presented in the search for the culture of our lives. Ladies and gentlemen, I have seen about 62 different definitions or discussions about culture, but in the field of knowledge, humanities and social sciences have not been able to reach any specific final conclusion. That is, our very worthy anthropologist, a woman like Benedict, or the great French scholar Levi Star, and then on the literary level, T.S.L. Eliot, all of them have defined it. But the truth is that I am courageous and have a stone in my heart and with great courage, I understand that Westerners are not able to give the correct definition of culture in such a way that they consider culture to be associated with human life, this life that we are living. But for this, it is necessary to expand this life far and wide until you understand the life to which it belongs. Not from the intermediate parts between birth and death, but with this endless journey of life that goes from here to here after, these poor people have this life and its knowledge and know about it, so they often say that the relationships of a certain group of people, their beliefs, their games, their movements, their courage and honesty, whose culture is and becomes a part of it, we accept this.
