Introudcing a New Blog!

Today, I stumbled upon a fascinating blog on Afghanistan.

The blog Title is "The New Afghanistan After Years of War". His name is Mohammad Fahim Khairy. Mohammad, a student in Arizona, has very informative posts regarding post-Taliban's everyday political, social and economic issues. Here’s a picture of the man behind the blog:

This is what Mohammad has to say about himself: “I started to work with World Food Program Afghanistan in 1993 I became severely sick. Initially my symptoms included severe headaches, fever, and overall weakness of my extremities. As these symptoms got worse, my entire neck and left arm became paralyzed. I gradually lost the ability to move my limbs. Upon completion of my “treatment”, I was diagnosed with Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS). With both of my legs paralyzed, I became a disabled person. Paralysis changed my life forever. I had to leave my homeland moved to the U.S.”

I find his perspectives and his generosity of spirit refreshing and courageous. I will be visiting this blog everyday from now on.
