Born in a Pakistan that is unrecognizable from the one of today, Mubarak Chouhdry left his mother country at the age of 19 expecting to return and live out his life there. Desiring only the typical international student experience abroad he had a great awakening that is the Classic American Experience. Drawn to this country by its rich diversity, acceptance, freedoms and the caring compassionate people he met along the way, he became acutely aware that this is where he was meant to be. In 1983 he proudly took the oath to become a naturalized American citizen that in turn transformed him forever. Following the tragedy of 9/11, and the still unfolding world events associated with the ugly face of terrorism it put into motion, his thoughts, theories and solutions that may be of help to those of us that choose to live side by side in appreciation and respect for all other empathetic religions, cultures and people of this planet we all inhabit.
