DEDICATION
In the course of my literary expedition, I find it necessary to dedicate this work to my cherished siblings, Sharif Khan and Iqbal Shah. These resilient individuals transcend the mere roles of brothers; they serve as the sturdy pillars of my journey, providing steadfast support and encouragement that echoes throughout these pages. Their unwavering belief in my capabilities propels me towards the realization of this book, and my gratitude towards Sharif and Shah is boundless for being guiding forces, navigating me through creative challenges and motivating me not just to aspire for greatness but to manifest it.
Now, let's bring attention to my dear companions in friendship, Toti Khan Latoo and Gul Lalmarjan Teto. Their presence in my life acts as a mysterious potion, alchemizing my raw ideas into the refined gold now in your hands.
As I flip through the pages, I encounter the vibrant enthusiasm of my nephews, Sameer and Shahzain. Their innocent smiles, serving as literary markers, delineate the joyful moments of my writing expedition. Within their laughter, I discover the cadence of my words, and in their boundless energy, the impetus for each literary venture. Farman and Shahzain, your uncle's pen gracefully moves across the pages, stirred by your infectious mirth. I express my gratitude for reminding me, amid the intricate labyrinth of words, to embrace the simplicity of joy.
To my siblings, friends, and nephews, your collective presence has served as the guiding North Star in my narrative journey. This book not only stands as evidence of my literary pursuits but also pays homage to the unwavering support, contagious laughter, and wise guidance you have generously shared. May this dedication endure as a cherished memory, a testament to our bonds, and a token of my deep appreciation for being the force beneath my wings as a writer.
