War inside us.

'' No matter how hard it goes let it be and stay strong''

From the very first every one have the different approach to the life and consequences they face are the result of their actions towards their life. A person needs to know what it takes to make a life worth living but unfortunately very few of us get to know about it and rest of us live with the fears inside us. The war going inside us about doing what to please our ego and our self satisfaction never ends till we die. 

We all living in this era are trying to fight with our very own self to make our life a blissful journey. Beyond religion, culture and society trends we never think to live as a human. 

Needs

The word need define our basic necessity to keep us alive that is eat, sleep and shelter. This is the very minimum level of consumption of needs adding to it education, sanitation and healthcare also comes in the list. 

''Is that all?"

This is where the war starts and we start to follow our illusions, thoughts and try to make our fantasy worlds imagination come true and most of us end like this failing in achieving these set of phantasmas to make our innersole at peace. 

"I don't want you to think that these fantasies are worthless or demotivating you to fulfill them but my point is to just think over it that the cost it takes from you to make it happen is much time bigger than its worth"

Life goes on and following your aim and goals should also be but in this journey don't you just forget about your existence and your purpose to be here on this diverse planet earth.

Islamabad to Mansehra:

We started our journey by boarding a bus at night near about 6 O'clock from Islamabad to the city Mansehra (district in the eastern part of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province).We traveled for 5 hours to about 160 km to the east.The weather was cold and wet.There was a traffic jam at our route that's why it takes extra time to reach there and we were there at 11 O'clock.But the total time it takes to travel there is maximum 3 hours,according to google map.

Best season to visit Mansehra:

According to my personal experience the suitable season to visit the northern areas are the months of April and May because the weather in these days is so pleasant in Northern areas.

Accommodation Expenses:

After we reached at Mansehra bus station we decided to have a dinner as it's so difficult to travel with an empty belly.Our next plan was to secure a comfortable accommodation which was not so far from the hotel, where we had our supper.After a small walk we reached at the hotel.We had a look at the rooms  and checked into one of the room with 3 beds.The rooms were well managed and were not so expensive.We made a little gossip and fell asleep.So our first day of tour came to an end.

First Morning at Mansehra:

We woke up and after getting ready we head up towards the main market, where the mouth watering Dish with a local taste beef kabab was waiting anxiously for us.We ate up-to our appetite and move towards market for shopping.After buying some traditional goods we came back to our hotel and packed our luggage.
