Shahida Latif spent her whole life in doing something curricular or extra curricular, reading or writing, playing or travelling. Her life remained full of activities. And work has not finished yet for her. “I have lot of ideas to pursue, there are lot of things to do yet. I feel life is short for the things I've planned to do.” Life is short and painful. Activities make it comfortable”. Shahida knows it very well. She spent her life in the light of this rule and will carry on. Persons like Shahida Latif don't look for results. For them activity itself means everything. And that turns out to be the key of their success. Pakistan will keep prospering as long as people like Shahida Latif keep singing melodious songs for it.
