In Pakistan, from the moment we are children, we are taught to keep others happy. “Teacher ko khush karo, marks milenge.” “Abbu ko khush karo, pocket money milegi.” “Mammi ko khush karo, warna naraz ho jaengi.” This conditioning becomes so deeply rooted that as adults, many of us measure our worth by how others feel […]
