Independence Day


Today is Independence Day. 
 

Pakistan first appeared on the world map on August 14, 1947. 

There will be many celebrations taking place in different areas but we will be staying home! 
As I write I hear chanting and enthusiastic shouting not too far away. 

Buildings are decorated with flags and lights.  On our way to Mass this morning, in the mini van, we saw many flags flying.  People were dressed in green and white. 

Happy to be together!

A young family, proud to be Pakistani.  I met them at the market.
