I am friends with a Pakistani girl at work. And let’s just say it’s been a little awkward for a few days now.

No, not like that. But with the whole #PulwamaTerroristAttack situation going on. I haven’t uttered anything regarding it, but she seems tense with my silence.. {THREAD}
Stressed that I hate her all of a sudden because of how her family’s country of origin has disgraced her everytime. What would you say to her if you were in my shoes?

“You’re a nice person, but your country’s fucked up so now I gotta hate you?”. That’s not how I was raised.
I was taught to love my birthplace, my motherland & my mother tongue. I was taught to respect men & women equally; regardless of their race, religion or culture. I was taught to love my enemies just as much as I want to loathe them. I was taught to give & never seek to take.
