….now enjoying the festive blend
of Durga Puja at Ramakrishna Mission, Chittagong Centre.
Durga Puja is the biggest religious
festival of the Hindu community in Bangladesh. Although the percentage of Hindu
people is low, Durga Puja along with other Hindu festivals are celebrated all
throughout Bangladesh.
For me,
at least for now, the joy of puja lies…
in the holiday itself!!…. A magnificent occasion
for ‘non-commercial’ running about!!
A vigorous restart for a life that had come to a standstill!
Every occasion, irrespective of
religious or non-religious ones, brings some excuses to convince myself to be a
part of it, its flavour. My soul often sighs for my past golden days when I
were to bother hardly about my material life. Gone are those days!! Time always
demands much more than we’re prepared to bear.
I adore the congregation of souls on
such festivals. The difference of status and dignity that society confers upon
us is kept apart. Yes, I feel such a communion within, forgetting the fronts
that sequester me from the world without! Yesterday, I hanged around with my
friends literally all day long. We sang, we danced, we got lost together.
My heart awaits such a sigh of
relief through the rest of the year. And, I spare no attempts to get bathed in
the fountain of ecstasy as it starts flowing. To me, as far as I’m concerned,
the communion of souls regarding every perspective, is the greatest aspect
Religion caters for us. It always blurrs the spiritual offering, I think.
Have wonderful moments with your
friends and family. Thank you.
…. I always appreciate your good
sense of humour. Mine is not bad too, for sure!…lol…. Hugs.
…. Precious people are to be
treasured, not to be forgotten. How can a star that twinkles eternally, sink
into oblivion?
…. I’ve no insight. I’m just
ordinary. It’s your thinking about me that matters. Every extraordinary in this
world was just viewed upon, not born. The credit always goes more to the
viewers. Thanks.
… I’m becoming terribly lazy these days…
so, you could say,
this is a kind of
meaningless, yet heartfelt indulgence of mine.
17 October 2010
Shuvo Bijoya. It’s a day of the
communion of souls… Be happy and make others happy.
Let’s make this day the start of a
new journey to better days… Let’s try to make the world a better place to
live in. Let’s dream of better dreams yet to come true.
Let’s not believe in imaginary
heaven hereafter, rather make this world heaven-like.
Take care.
May the gratitude of our uncommercial sincerity endure for eternity… may this affection remain imperishable…

Those girls who wander about in jeans and t-shirts all year round,
those very girls wore red-bordered saris for the past four days,
especially today… quite something, isn’t it?
‘Half woman you are,
half imagination…’
This causeless partiality of God has stirred my justified wonder and made me think deeply these past four days…
I cannot understand how God created such women!
This strange sort of ‘research capability’ regarding the opposite gender is innate to all humans, isn’t it?
If the dog knew we curse its tail so much,
would it still wag its tail in joy
upon seeing us?
‘…whether the diamond-set golden flower is real, yet is it not real.’
You understand
a hint of comparison in her letter, like an invisible thorn
pierces near my heart and declares—
I am an utterly ordinary girl.
I do not have in my hands
such wealth to pay the precious in full.
O beloved, so be it then,
so be it that I remain forever in debt.
……………………………………….
Whatever my condition may be
do not diminish your imagination.
You are not miserly like the Creator.
(Should I then assume that this extraordinary ordinary woman will remain only in the realm of sorrowful imagination?)
…I couldn’t fully accept what you said, sister.
The Creator, through causeless partiality, has fashioned woman to be enchanting—I think it’s best not to add any more color to that incomparably beautiful form. Adding color only creates artifice; you cannot deceive the Creator with that! Even the utterly foolish understand this—claims of not understanding, or the rest, are mere acting!
During this Puja, on Mahashtami, at the time of flower offerings, I sacrificed Mother’s offering to witness the mystery-wrapped form of feminine beauty. (Of course, I did say ‘sorry’ to Mother Durga afterwards!)
Therefore I must say, I have strong objections to calling this infinitely glorious beauty merely a poet’s fancy.
Live in joy,
sister. Thank you.

….. enjoying a journey through the
heart of darkness….
I can see the hue of sound… La la
la…
I can hear the rhythm of colour….
La la la…
….. Hello didi, how are you? I’m
fine. Thank you. How are you getting on with your days? Are you now in the US?
Have you any plan to visit Bangladesh? Take care.
…. I was on the train when you
wrote on my wall. I fell asleep soon after updating my status, and so I
couldn’t reply in time. Thank you very much for your warm hospitality
especially because you dared put up with a nonsense like me….lol… You’re
hopefully coming here during Eid-ul-azha. Right? Hope to meet you soon. Take
care. Bye.
…. Hello didi, after a long time
you’re on my wall. How are you and your family members? Last night, I enjoyed a
train journey and got lost in the lap of nature soon after I’d stared at the
colour of night. I drank its essence to my heart’s content. The gorgeous night
touched my soul and left no excuses for waiting to share my feelings with my
friends. Getting lost in forest must be a romantic experience. I can feel it
vicariously and hope to have that experience too.
…. Sir, it’s always nice to see
you write on my wall. Thank you.
Every light is a light of hope. We
just gotta discover its appeal. The light that bears no hope is just darkness
in disguise. Yes, we can hardly be prudent enough to see through this specious
darkness. Doomed we’re not to have this sight!
Good Morning my dear friends. You’re
always more precious to me than I can really value. You make my days every day.

Eve-teasing is the worst
demonstration of a mean personality. Say a big NO to eve-teasing.
My dear Friends!
বাংলাদেশে ইভ-টিজিংয়ের সাম্প্রতিক ভয়াবহ রূপ এই শব্দটিকে নিছক একটি শিষ্টাচারমূলক অভিব্যক্তিতে পরিণত করেছে। এটি আর কোনোভাবেই উত্যক্তকরণের পর্যায়ে নেই, বরং হয়ে উঠেছে এমন হয়রানি যা আমাদের পারিবারিক জীবনকে বিপন্ন করে তুলছে। শুধু মেয়েরা নয়, তাদের অভিভাবক, শিক্ষক এবং বন্ধুরাও এই অভিশাপের যন্ত্রণায় কাতরাচ্ছেন। সাম্প্রতিক সময়ে এমন একটি দিনও কাটে না যেদিন গণমাধ্যমে ইভ-টিজিংয়ের খবর থাকে না। আমি যদি সেই নীচ দুষ্কৃতকারীদের গুলি করে মারতে পারতাম! তারা কোনো দয়া, কোনো ন্যায়বিচার পাওয়ার যোগ্য নয়; মৃত্যু এবং কেবল মৃত্যুই হোক তাদের পরিণতি। ধিক সেই মেরুদণ্ডহীন অপরাধীদের!!
একজন শিক্ষক ও একজন মায়ের সাম্প্রতিক করুণ মৃত্যু নারী হয়রানির প্রতিবাদকারীদের অরক্ষিত অবস্থা উন্মোচন করে দেয়। আর তাই, নারী পিছু ধাওয়া আরও ভয়াবহ রূপ নিয়েছে, ক্রমবর্ধমান সংখ্যক মানুষ এই অভিশাপের বিরুদ্ধে প্রতিরোধ করতে গিয়ে প্রাণ হারাচ্ছেন। বাংলাদেশে গত নয় মাসে অন্তত ২৫ জন নারী নির্যাতনের ভয়াবহতা থেকে বাঁচতে আত্মহত্যা করেছেন, অন্যদিকে ৯ জন পুরুষ অনুসরণকারীদের বিরুদ্ধে রুখে দাঁড়াতে গিয়ে প্রাণ হারিয়েছেন। বিদ্যমান আইন ও রাষ্ট্রীয় হস্তক্ষেপ এতটাই দুর্বলভাবে প্রণীত যে আইনপ্রয়োগকারী সংস্থাগুলো থেকে ভিকটিমরা সামান্য সাহায্যই পান। একদিকে এই সামাজিক মহামারী নির্মূল করতে কঠোর আইন প্রণয়ন ও বাস্তবায়ন করা, অন্যদিকে এই রোগের বিরুদ্ধে গণসচেতনতা কর্মসূচি চালু করা আবশ্যক। অভিযুক্ত অনুসরণকারীদের অবিলম্বে গ্রেফতার করে দৃষ্টান্তমূলক শাস্তির আওতায় আনতে হবে। এটি একটি মর্মান্তিক অভিজ্ঞতা যা গভীর মনস্তাত্ত্বিক দাগ ও বৃহত্তর সমাজের জন্য নেতিবাচক পরিণতি রেখে যেতে পারে। যারা আত্মহত্যায় বাধ্য হয়েছেন তাদের জন্য আমরা দায় এড়াতে পারি না। একটি আশাব্যঞ্জক জীবন শুরু হওয়ার আগেই যেন ধ্বংস না হয়ে যায়।
ধন্যবাদ বন্ধুরা, এই সময়োপযোগী বিষয়ে আপনাদের সমন্বিত সহায়তার অঙ্গীকারের জন্য।
কঠোর পিতৃতান্ত্রিক সামাজিক ব্যবস্থার কারণে, একজন নারীর পক্ষে সর্বজনীন স্থানে ইভ-টিজিংয়ের প্রতিবাদ করা প্রায় দুঃসাহসিক ব্যাপার। এর কারণ, একদিকে এটি তার নিরাপত্তাকে আরও বিপন্ন করতে পারে এবং তার চলাচলের স্বাধীনতা সীমিত করতে পারে। অন্যদিকে, এ ধরনের ঘটনার জন্য সাধারণত মেয়েটিকেই সমাজ অবশ্যম্ভাবীভাবে দায়ী করে। সেজন্য একটি মেয়ে দুর্বৃত্ত ছেলেদের দলের বিরুদ্ধে লড়াই করবে এমনটা কেউ আশা করবে না। সুতরাং, মেয়েটির নীরবতা নিয়ে প্রশ্ন তোলার খুব একটা সুযোগ নেই। কিন্তু যারা পুরো ঘটনার সাক্ষী ছিল তাদের নীরবতা কোনো সচেতন মনের উপেক্ষা করা উচিত নয়। এটা কি ইঙ্গিত দেয় যে আমরা মধ্যযুগীয় ব্যবস্থায় ফিরে যাচ্ছি? এটা কি বোঝায় যে আমরা আমাদের নৈতিক মূল্যবোধ হারিয়ে ফেলছি? যখন এই অবস্থা, তখন কি আমাদের সত্যিই মেয়েদের একা প্রতিবাদ করার প্রত্যাশা করা উচিত? আমাদের কি আদৌ কোনো দায়বদ্ধতা নেই?
Victimised women and girls do not
only get psychologically troubled, but also continuously feel insecure to go
outside their homes. They develop a sense of distrust and humiliation against
men. In fact, within the patriarchal social fabric, eve teasing is a weapon to
weaken, hurt or force women to consign to domestic affairs. It evidently
restricts women’s mobility in the public sphere, which on the one hand
contributes to their diminishing participation in outdoor activities and causes
early marriage on the other. There is increasing realisation that eve teasing
severely restricts the mobility of women and girls, which is unquestionably a
threat to women’s empowerment. All together, though apparently invisible, the
cost of eve teasing is huge at our national and individual life.
There are legal provisions to thwart
the offence, but those are either very weak or deficient of a clear-cut
definition, which helps the perpetrators escape trial or get away with very
little penalty and discourage the victimized women seeking justice. On the
other hand, no matter how weak those laws are, most people are unaware of their
existence as they are hardly aware of any implementation of those. Let’s fight
eve teasing to save our souls.
Some organizations working on human
right often stand on the way of smooth execution of trial. These pressure
groups violate humanity in the name of safeguarding human right. I think, the
concept of human right should be brought under amendment. Human right should be
exclusively for humans not for beasts. Not being born with the shape of a beast
doesn’t necessarily make one human. It’s something to be achieved, not to be
inherited.
Human right organizations must not
forget that punishing the criminals might be God’s duty, but making their
appointment with God is our responsibility.
Should we avoid this responsibility?

…. on the way to Dhaka—one of
the most convincing Hells ever created! Yes, it’s a Hell in the guise of a
Paradise.
Paradise lost. No Milton dare write
Paradise Regained.

…. on the way to Chittagong from
Dhaka. The silent language of darkness is humming with the songs of Kishor
Kumar. What a romantic blend my soul is entertained with!…. enjoying it. La
la la.
…. Today I’d to appear at an
interview at DU for the EMBA course. Now, I’m returning to my sweet paradise
from this corporate hell.
…. The falling of night speaks to
my soul. I’m just lost. I’m drinking music, bathing in the moonlight. La la la
la la la….
A nice status that shows and
reflects your devotion toward the great artist!!!
…. I’ve no eye to see through the
creation of an artist; rather, I like to create art for myself. My Utopia is
self-made, no one ever resided there!….. And, you’ve always kind words for me
that furnish much more than I really deserve, my humble confession.
At this moment, my heart imbibes the
philosophical tone from the devotional songs of Lalon & Tagore. They’re the
greatest treasures Bengal has ever discovered!!
The cool breeze, the canopy of the
gleam of the queen moon, the soft melodious touch, the rhythmic journey…..
What else is needed to keep the soul close to mother nature?!
…. I think, a song the greatest
soul-provider. But, it’s we who feel the presence of soul within. The aesthetic
blend is to be drunk to the core of our heart, and only then, the music touches
our soul. The music and our existence are not two different essences any more,
they become intermingled. It works even better than magic realism!!

I’ve stood 6th in order of merit in
the Evening MBA admission test of Dhaka University… Feeling happy.
………….. Dear friends, I
sincerely feel inspired, grateful and honoured for your dignified presence on
my wall. Every aspect of pride and pleasure comes only for some priceless
people like you. Please allow me to express my humble THANKS to you for being
with me on this auspicious moment. Take care.
…… Didi, you always have
something for me more valuable than I really deserve.
…….. Dada, I also pride myself
on having such precious well-wishers like you.
…… Dear friend, I feel humbled
at your kind thought about me as I think, it’s not about ‘going for’; rather
it’s all about ‘trying for’!! I’m thinking of trying for it. Thank you for
inspiring me.
….. I wish you informed me about
it earlier!! lolzz………. Brother, if the deadline of admission is before
the admission test of the MBA course of IBA, I think, it’s wise to get myself
admitted; otherwise I’ll await the admission test of IBA. Thanks for writing on
my wall.
……… Dost, I also sincerely
wish your every success. Be blessed always.
Rony Das……… I wish I could
escape from this ‘Corporate Hell’!! Sometimes, Hell seems to be sweeter than
Heaven.
…….. Sister,
I have no sister of my own,
so I never received a brother’s blessing either. It felt so wonderful to receive this love from a sister like you. Stay well.
…… Friend, I congratulate you on
your standing 17th in order of merit. You always rock, we know!! Take care.
….. Thank you, my sweet, cute
sister. Dear crazy one, I’m always ready to throw a party. Just come to Bangladesh
and make a grab at it!!
…… But for your presence on my
wall, this result would have been just a piece of news rather than being a
success. I feel like being on an elevated plane for your sincere wishes. Thank
you for this favour. Take care.
I’m gladly taking the opportunity of
thanking you for those wonderful words of felicitation. It’s just what I need! I
like the blend of your cordial feelings very much. No, success has any real
value if there’s no one to evaluate it. I’m so lucky to have some genuine
well-wishers through this giant social network. Hats off to Mark Zuckerberg!!
It’s really difficult to bridge the narrow, yet seemingly never-ending gap
lying between ‘what I’ve’ and ‘what I deserve’. A harmonious transition is
NEVER possible but for such a selfless support you’ve rendered for me. I know
my achievement is SMALL but you’ve helped me in making the sense of it BIG.
Only what we sense or think matters. Yes, small is beautiful and so every
little thing counts. A BIG is just a SMALL in disguise!!………. “We’ll never
part either in smiles or tears.” — Let’s make this a reason BIG enough to soar
higher together. Be blessed always.
সত্যি কথা বলতে, যে সম্মান আমার প্megaওয়ার নয় সেটা আমাকে লজ্জা দেয়। এটা ততটা বড় অর্জন নয় যতটা তুমি মনে করছো। ফলাফল জানতে পেরে আমি খুশি হয়েছিলাম (মনে পড়ে, আট বছর আগে আমার স্নাতক ইঞ্জিনিয়ারিং বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় চুয়েটের ভর্তি পরীক্ষায় মেধা তালিকায় দ্বিতীয় হওয়ার সময়েও একই আনন্দ অনুভব করেছিলাম) এবং তোমার সাথে সেটা ভাগ করে নিতে ইচ্ছে হলো। তুমি সবসময় আমার জীবন এবং আমার চারপাশের জীবনগুলো সম্পর্কে আমাকে ভিন্নভাবে ভাবতে শেখাও। এটা একটি অমূল্য অভিজ্ঞতা। এটার দাম হাজার কোটি ডলার বা তারও বেশি যা আমি গণনা করতেও পারি না! একজন বন্ধুর অবিশ্বাস্য দয়ার সাথে কিছুই তুলনা হতে পারে না, তুমি জানো। ভিন্ন চিন্তা করা কঠিন, কিন্তু ভিন্নভাবে ভাবা সহজ, বিশেষ করে যখন তুমি তোমার ভেতরে সেই তাগিদ অনুভব করো। হ্যাঁ, তুমি আমার জীবনের সেই অমূল্য মানুষদের একজন যারা সবসময় আমাকে আমার যোগ্যতার চেয়ে বেশি অনুভব করিয়েছো, আমার প্রাপ্যের চেয়ে বেশি ভাবিয়েছো — এটাই আমার সৎ স্বীকারোক্তি। কোনো কিছুই গুরুত্বপূর্ণ বা গুরুত্বহীন নয় যতক্ষণ না আমরা সেটা সম্পর্কে সেভাবে অনুভব বা ভাবি। তাই, এটা সম্পূর্ণভাবে একটি মন-খেলা। এতে অবশ্যই কিছু সুন্দর মনের খেলোয়াড় লাগে। আত্মা দিয়ে যত্নসহকারে বোনা সেই চমৎকার শব্দগুলোর জন্য ধন্যবাদ, যদিও আমি এখনো তার সামান্যতম যোগ্যও নই। আমার পক্ষে বলতে পারি, পৃথিবীতে কে একজন বন্ধুর ভালোবাসার প্রতি উদাসীন থাকার সাহস করে? কেউ না। কারণ, ভালোবাসা ছাড়া জীবন অর্থহীন; জীবন ছাড়া ভালোবাসা অর্থহীন…. আমি ভালোবাসা অনুভব করি, এত ভালোবাসা যা তোমার থেকে, এবং আমার সবচেয়ে কাছের মানুষদের থেকে ঢেলে আসে, এবং সেই ভালোবাসা যা আমার থেকে প্রবাহিত হয়, আমাকে আরো বেশি দেয়, যত বেশি আমি দিই!
একটি মোমবাতি থেকে হাজারো মোমবাতি জ্বালানো যায়, এবং মোমবাতির আয়ু কমবে না। ভাগ করে নেওয়ার মাধ্যমে আনন্দ কখনো কমে না। সেই আলোর দৃষ্টিভঙ্গি নিয়ে আমার সাথে থাকার জন্য ধন্যবাদ যা মনের সবচেয়ে অন্ধকার কারাগারেও বা যে সূর্যকিরণ-আশীর্বাদপ্রাপ্ত, বাতাসে ভেসে যাওয়া পর্বতশিখরের স্বপ্ন আমি সবসময় দেখেছি সেখানেও আমার দৃষ্টি ভরিয়ে দেয়।
… আমি লিখিনি, শুধু আমার আত্মার প্রতিধ্বনি করেছি, ঠিক যেভাবে তুমি করে থাকো। আত্মার একজন ব্যাখ্যাকারী এই পৃথিবীর সবচেয়ে বড় উপহার। যে কবিতায় তুমি আমাকে ট্যাগ করেছো সেটা আমার আত্মাকে স্পর্শ করেছে এবং তোমার ক্ষেত্রেও আমার লেখা একইভাবে করেছে। দুই আত্মার একতা গুরুত্বপূর্ণ। এটা ভালোবাসাকে সমর্থন করে একটি অনন্য মিশ্রণ তৈরি করতে, আমি মনে করি। আমি যা সত্যিই তার চেয়ে নিজের সম্পর্কে আমাকে বেশি অনুভব করানোর জন্য ধন্যবাদ।
…. আমার দেয়ালে তোমার মনোহর উপস্থিতির জন্য ধন্যবাদ, ম্যাডাম। তোমার কাছে আমার বিনীত কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করতে পেরে আমি আন্তরিকভাবে সম্মানিত বোধ করছি।
I got chance in the Evening MBA
program of the dept of Finance, conducted by the Faculty of Business Studies
under DU. IBA has not yet published any circular of admission test of MBA
program through media or its official website. I hope I’d take that admission
test too and surely go for IBA if I can prove myself competent for it.
Take care.

If somebody asks me why I’m single,
I just tell them, “God is busy writing the best love story for me.”
Truth is, God never likes to be bothered,
though we like to bother Him thinking foolishly that He is enjoying it. In
defense of myself, I can say, what else can I do when I’m bothered enough not
knowing what is bothering me?… That’s not a big problem… We bother God even
for the duties of doctors and feel relieved… I’ve failed many times in my
attempts and happily blamed God…
… You’ve hit the nail on the
head!! As I don’t pray, please request God on my behalf, please… I’ll arrange
a party for you at Radisson if He responds to your prayer… I promise!…
(What a comment, Aysha! Hahahaha…. I can’t stop laughing… )
…. Dost, I’ve just written what I
believe, what I’ve felt. If you like it, you must share a common soul with me
in this aspect.
… Nothing is the best, nothing is
the worst. Only our thinking makes it so. And, if I get something that I’ll
consider the best, surely, you’ll have everything in its best shape as you
desire to see, my sincere heart-felt wish for you. Thanks a lot.
…. Sir, I think, God Himself
hasn’t taken this assignment, He really never takes it, perhaps. I’m just happy
to be complacent thinking it foolishly. Sometimes thinking foolish is more
important than being foolish….. For every drop of rain there blooms a flower,
for every dark road there lits a candle…. And, for every wish why there must
not be an answer?
…. How can I forget my friends for
someone who is only because they were? A question is more important than an
answer because an answer never comes without a question. And, I value the one
who makes me ask.
Friends are with me even knowing
that I’m imperfect with little perfections, and perhaps she will be with me
knowing that I’m perfect with little imperfections. I fear loneliness and I
know I can’t be perfect for long. So, forgetting you will be just suicidal, I
know.
…. I never bother God and He also
doesn’t bother me. There’s an invisible deed of agreement between us. And, in
case of any breach of contract we’ll part forever (that’s also a part of
agreement…lol)…. I know it’s all about a great mess, and it’ll still remain
a mess. What’s life but a GREAT mess? Let’s learn to love it. Let’s wait and
see what’s next. And, there’s always another episode left… You can never be
problem-free if you first don’t have it! We can never be found till we’re lost.
I’m waiting for everything that might come and might not!
… Dada, it’s all about getting
ready for going to the scaffold with a smiling face! Alfred Nobel’s wife fled
away with a professor of Mathematics. We know, Nobel prize isn’t awarded for
Mathematics…. Quest??…. Well, Peace was selected as a field of that prize
later on (long after Nobel’s death) probably showing tribute to Nobel’s wife as
she generously (!) brought peace in Nobel’s life….lol… Never remorse if you
think anything offensive about your wife, she thinks twice! said a ‘married’
gentleman… Marriage may be compared to a cage: the birds outside despair to
get in and those within despair to get out…. Let’s forget all the myths and
facts about marriage…. Let’s have faith on the scripture of God. We’ll have
at least someone to blame at the end of the day, and that’s: FATE!!
…. After so long!
Sometimes I wonder where you disappear to, into what kind of hibernation!… It felt good knowing that you liked what I wrote… I just write down whatever comes to mind—the responsibility of understanding or not understanding can rest with my Facebook friends!
….. Wow! The law of attraction
matters! I was expecting you on my wall especially on this status, and you’re
really here finally! Did telepathy work for you? Or, only because what we think
comes around! …. You always have kind words for me. The value of a thing is
something we give to it. So, I deserve just what you think about me. I wish I
could reach the point I deserve. I’m tired of being at this very ordinary
level… But, I’m always in an elevated plane in your precious company…
…. If possible,
kindly request God to write a good story. I don’t really like most of the love stories He writes. They all seem to have some kind of mismatch! Almost all of them end in just
compromising. There’s hardly a perfect matching……
…..Oh brother, if God can’t even manage this small task, then the number of atheists will surely multiply! After all, He is the safest entity for blaming! If I do my own work myself, then why go through all this trouble of imagining God?…………..
….. Thanks God, I’m an atheist.

When someone loves me whom I
don’t/can’t love, a sense of guilt fills my heart. My heart says to me,
‘Congratulations! You’ve successfully hurt the girl who really loves you.’…
Is it natural?
Dear friends, I don’t know why it
hurts, but it really hurts. And, to be honest, I never promise anything which I
might have to break. Does it mean that honesty of relationship develops a sense
of guilt sometimes?
…. I’m happy that I’m not alone to
possess this type of feeling.
… I’m fine. Thank you. How are
you?
… Whatever happens, I always
listen to my soul. So, what’s the use of living with a person who can’t be a
soul-provider for me?
…. Hmm… I think, I must be
iron-hearted. Not everyone deserves your love, and, the reverse is also true.
But, it’s not easy to let such a feeling go untouched.
… Sir, I don’t know whether such a
feeling springs from any exaggerated belief about my worth or power, but
honestly, I do feel it…. Dear doctor, could you please suggest any effective
remedy?
………false hope of matrimony should
not be allowed to rise in tender hearts of vulnerable & docile Bengali
balikas who are eagerly waiting for their sir’s blinking eye for approval &
needful.
…. I agree, Sir. But, heart
sometimes follows a way not be followed. And, in this case, childlike thoughts
try to convince heart, I can guess. To be hanged for a murder you’re not guilty
for, is more dangerous than the murder itself. Better to feel blamed than to be
blamed — I try to convince myself by saying this. A heart that loves but is
hurt is like a rose that never blooms. And, I know I didn’t plant the plant or
did never water it.
… Heart is too stubborn to be
controlled!
…. Sir, the language of heart is
the toughest language to understand. We’re never too intelligent to escape the
chance of misunderstanding and being misunderstood.
you write poetry for your
“self-satisfaction of your own soul”, but every eligible girl thinks
that you have written that poem for her alone!
…. Yes Sir, that’s why, they say
that every great poetry is never finished, and I often leave it unfinished at
the point of convincing her, ‘Poetry, not to be read by heart but by brain’…
And, so far as the rule goes on, greatest is the reader who places poetry in
heart, not in brain. Worst is the writer who makes no such readers….. I don’t
know how to escape as I don’t want to escape. Megalomaniac patient I’m!!
what cannot be cured, must be
thoroughly enjoyed!……..that is my parting advice…….where should I send the
bill?
…. to the heart wealthy enough to
pay the bill…
(Who dare pay, I wonder, Sir!)
This shylock believes in cash or
kind sir…but heart for heart with not a drop of blood on Persian carpet!
…. Hats off to such a Shylock!!
Really a BIG deal you’ve taught me, Sir! I’ll try to pass this on…
No deal could ever bet ‘a heart for
heart’ deal. A small payment for a GIANT step.
…. Not everyone lets it go so…
Not everyone adds meaning to a thing to make it meaningful…. Not everything
gets meaning from someone worthy of making the sense of that meaning…. And,
that’s the mystery of life revealed never.
…. Not that it veils me, I just
feel veiled. It’s difficult to unveil something that doesn’t veil at all.
Flowing with life surely needs something worth flowing for.
…. Dost, mend your own shoes
before mending mine.

Dear friends! I’m looking for a
two-room house near Dhaka University area or, Dhanmondi (or, any other place
within easy reach of those two places). Could anyone of you please help me in
this regard?
you have free choice as “paying
guest” or ” as Ghar-Jamai”!
not only nice but path breaking,
there is third viable option…do you like “living in” relationship!
…. Hmm… Nice proposals are nice
only when there’s someone nicer to accept those proposals for!
… Dear Sirs! I used to think so.
Later, I changed my idea when I found no lovely and nice girls or their parents
thinking so. I’m perhaps a bad thought-reader!… May be, I should have made
the first move. But, should any gentleman make the first move?
… Dear Sir, it’s so nice of you to
try to persuade Mosud Sir to manage a house for me. … Managing a suitable in
Dhaka city isn’t an easy task. You can realize it very well seeing the
unusually scanty presence of my friends on this status.
… Heaven be thanked partition
couldn’t manage to part our souls. Uniqueness always pays.
… I’m agree to be a genius (or
whatever else you want to call me… lol) to live in your area.
Thanks a lot for your assurance of
help. Could you please give me just a rough idea within this evening?

Dear friends! What’s your evaluation
of today’s Live Show of Shahrukh Khan held at The Army Stadium in Dhaka?
It’s not our culture. It can never
be and we are not welcoming it. It’s an cultural assault!
you’re most welcome, Sir.
…. Masima, I’m sorry that I
couldn’t get what you meant in Hindi. Yes, he is rightly called King Khan.
what can save us when we’re agree to
be culturally assaulted? What and how he has done was predetermined. Right?
… No, Ms Katrina hasn’t come.
it’s not about fanaticism, rather
today’s programme was a great satire towards the communities that practise
fanaticism. In Bangladesh, the opposition parties are very fond of protests
even on the slightest excuses. But, to my utter surprise, no group spoke a single
word in this regard! I salute Mr Khan. I’m a big fan of his. But, I strongly
think, for the people of my mother Bangladesh, movies are the best media to see
him, not any Live Show. Thanks.
… Thank you for this specific
evaluation. I also don’t think that it was a well-arranged programme apart from
other issues.
… He said or did nothing unusual.
What was unusual was the concerned authority’s permission to hold the show
without any type of restriction or censorship. I strongly protest against this irresponsibility.
… I think the main issue is
something else in case of our country in today’s perspective.
… Thank you for your comment…. I
think, the show was just better than worse considering everything!
… Yes brother, you’ve hit the nail
on the head! But, in the name of globalization and marketing, aren’t we trading
our values and ideals for just being corporate slaves?
… In media, how old a star looks
or manages to look, is probably more important than how old he/she is…
Thanks.
hmmm, no time, dear, to
discuss/see!!,Have crossed the area today but no way to see!! As have a chance
to get ticket from some body but this is life without charm!! above all
Shahrukh is a guy with gr8 personality, I like it…that’s al.
… Dear Sir, I’m really sorry for
being difficult to understand me… I request you to consider the perspective
of my thoughts. Thanks.
… I agree. I’ve not the least
doubt about the acceptance of this worldly acclaimed media personality. What
fills me with a resentment, I’ve already written in my previous comments.
Thanks.

I’ve just watched the movie, Rab Ne
Bana Di Jodi… There’s always an extraordinary love story in every ordinary
jodi (couple)… It’s true and will remain true, forever, forever!!
I heard about this movie earlier,
but never watched it before… There’s only one best couple in the world and
you can find it almost in every home.
I am too old to believe in Hindi movie
type Romance!! I believe lots of people are lucky and have someone made for
them-the Made for each other type!! But I like my freedom….
…. Hello masi! I’m not so young to
be convinced in everything I hear, see or read. But, I feel that I’m still too
young to have learnt to say a humble ‘NO’ to any colour of imagination that is
yet to be on the canvas of reality. Yes, I enjoy it. No regret at all! I feel
like being in this paradise forever! I’ve never fallen in love, but love often
falls in love with me. And, my heart goes on.. and on…..
… Life feels good whenever I watch
such movies. Life is really beautiful. But, the problem is, we feel it only
after we’ve a beautiful life.
…. কোনো কথাসাহিত্যই, আমার মনে হয়, জীবনের চেয়ে অদ্ভুত পড়ায় না। সত্যি কথা হলো, আমরা জীবন পড়ার শিল্পে পারদর্শী হতে ভয় পাই। সেটা চিরকাল অপঠিত রয়ে যায়…. আমি আমার সীমাবদ্ধতাগুলো জানি, আমার জীবন জানে না। আমার জীবন আমার শক্তিগুলো জানে, আমি জানি না। কী পরিহাস! আমাদের জীবন কি এই ভ্রমেই তৈরি? সব ভ্রম শেষ হয়ে গেলে কি জীবন সত্যিই তার সমস্ত মোহ হারিয়ে ফেলে? এই চিরঅলিখিত কথার চেয়ে অদ্ভুত কোনো কল্পকাহিনী আছে কি? আমরা সবসময় অন্যদের কল্পকাহিনী পড়তে ব্যস্ত থাকি, নিজেদেরটা উপেক্ষা করে।
২৫ ডিসেম্বর ২০১০
সব অসাধারণ মানুষ আমাদের কাছে অচেনা নয়, কেউ কেউ আমাদের প্রতিবেশীও! আমাদের অধিকাংশ কেন জন্মের মতোই সাধারণ থেকে যায়? আমাদের বাংলাদেশি বিজ্ঞানী শুভ রায়কে সালাম! আমার দাদা আর ওর দাদা ছিলেন সহকর্মী এবং বন্ধু।
আমার মনে হয় যে আমি সত্যিকার অর্থে যতটা প্রাপ্য তার চেয়ে বেশি সাধারণ।
…. হ্যাঁ, একজন বাংলাদেশি হিসেবে তার দারুণ আবিষ্কারের সংবাদ পেয়ে আমি সত্যিই গর্বিত বোধ করেছি। আরো গর্ব লেগেছে যখন মা’র কাছে শুনেছি যে তার পিতামহ ছিলেন ইংরেজির অধ্যাপক আর আমার মাতামহ ছিলেন কানুনগোপাড়া স্যার আশুতোষ কলেজে বাংলার অধ্যাপক। তারা ছিলেন খুব ভালো বন্ধু এবং পারিবারিক ঘনিষ্ঠতাও ছিল। আমি কেন এত সাধারণ? আমি কি সাধারণ হয়েই মরে যাব?
‘সাধারণ’-এর মধ্যে ‘অসাধারণ’টা খুঁজে নেওয়া আমাদেরই কাজ! সেটা কি সত্যিই কঠিন??
নিজেকে কখনো ছোট করে দেখো না। আমি একজন সহজ-সরল লিফটম্যানের গল্প শুনেছি যে শুধু পৃথিবীর সেরা লিফটম্যান হতে চেয়েছিল। আমি বলব সে ছিল অসাধারণ। অসাধারণ হওয়ার জন্য বিখ্যাত হওয়ার দরকার নেই। আমার চোখে আমার নিজের বাবা-মা তাদের নিজস্ব উপায়ে অসাধারণ।
কৃত্রিম কিডনি?
…. হ্যাঁ, আমাদের প্রতিটি প্রচেষ্টার আগে ‘অসাধারণ-‘ উপসর্গ যোগ করা সম্ভব। আর নিঃসন্দেহে, এই কঠিন যাত্রার শুরু ঘরেই। বাবা-মা সবসময়ই অসাধারণ। আসলে তারা জন্মেই থাকেন। আমরাও আমাদের মতো করে অসাধারণ হতে পারি। কিন্তু, যে পথে বিখ্যাতরা চলেন সেই পথে পা রাখা কি খুব বড় ব্যাপার? তারা কি এমন কিছু করেন যা কেউ কখনো করেনি? তারা শুধু ভিন্নভাবে ভাবেন আর সেই অনুযায়ী কাজ করেন। কিন্তু আমরা কেন সেখানে নেই? এই বড় ‘কেন’ আমার মাথায় হাতুড়ি মারছে। মহৎ মানুষরা সবাই যে রবীন্দ্রনাথ বা সেনসাহেবের মতো মহৎ বংশের নন। আমার বংশেও সাধারণ না থাকার জন্য যা দরকার সবই আছে। তাহলে আমি কেন সেই রূপান্তর ঘটাতে এত অসহায়?
…. হ্যাঁ, একটা কৃত্রিম কিডনি আবিষ্কার করেছেন তিনি। আরো গবেষণা চলছে এখনো….
Why do you want to be famous? I love
the fact that I can walk on the street peacefully. I would hate to have crowds
gather wherever I went. I admire Amitji but honestly I pity them who have
hardly any private life….
… I don’t mind being famous! It’s
better to spend some time in being cared for than to waste some time in caring
for someone who even doesn’t think of caring you.

How much time does it take to reach
Dhaka University from Dhaka International Airport? Is it possible to reach in
40 minutes? Friends, any suggestion, please?
…. My flight is scheduled to land
at Dhaka Airport at 4.10 pm on 17 January. I must reach Dhaka University at or
before 5.15 pm. I’ve an interview at IBA at that time…. Can’t I do it? Is it
not possible? I need to do it at any cost. As I don’t know about the routes of
Dhaka City, I’m asking for your help. Dhaka City is an unknown city to me.
Can a taxi cab help me reach there
in 1 hour? I can’t be late, otherwise I’ll miss the Interview schedule. I’ve
managed that schedule today through an application… Can a bike be a better
solution? Or, something else? I’m in a great trouble….
17th January is dated with Monday
and from Sunday to Thursday Dhk city remains too busy to give you any good
scope to reach the Dhaka university within 1 hour. It’s folly better change
your Schedule.
is right… No better solution than
that if you can’t change the schedule.
It’s a tough call my friend it will
take you 2 hours minimum on a weekday at that time. If you are a jogger, you
could do in an hour possibly.
I agree with akku. Sushanta, it’s been ages since you ran a race. Trust me, this will be a real sprint for your career—you’ll have to break Usain Bolt’s record. But I know you won’t manage it. Your physique isn’t built for such a run. Besides, there’s the risk of public assault. When you start running, they might mistake you for a pickpocket… haha. Just pulling your leg.
I think if you can arrange a motorcycle, it would definitely save time. I’ll get you there in a flash, weaving through tight spots… haha
Don’t you dare drive yourself. Hire a Dhallywood stunt rider…
… The schedule cannot be altered! Hopefully, some miracle will occur and I’ll manage to keep the appointment on time.
… Thank you, Sir, for your ‘jogging’ suggestion. I was seriously considering this option too. Yes, I’ll certainly manage to arrive on time—by vehicle, on foot, then vehicle again, then on foot again… And I will go. I’ll be there punctually by whatever means necessary.
… Friend, you’re quite the jester! Can you picture me sprinting down a crowded street?! Well, don’t worry! I’ll just keep running and running…
… Brother, I’m definitely not attempting to board a bus! That would be dreadful, you understand. I was merely seeking advice since I’m unfamiliar with the route. Thanks for the suggestion. I think a CNG auto-rickshaw might serve me well. A taxi is liable to get trapped in traffic indefinitely. A motorcycle would be the better solution. But I can’t arrange one.
… Yes, exactly! I too believe that simply giving my best effort is the wisest approach.
… Friend, I have no other options remaining. This is the best I can do. It will be catastrophic if this fails, and I hope it succeeds. Thank you for your good wishes.
Yes, dada, I’m certain there will be a miracle… because miracles are the only certainty in life.
Best of luck, and I hope you make it on time.
… Yes, brother, I’ve always found my life more peculiar than any fiction. And I know I haven’t yet explored and discovered every facet of it. Let’s wait and see what unfolds next!!
……. You need a good thrashing!
Do you enjoy getting all confused by calling people left and right?
Plz, stop wasting your time in browsing Facebook and and concentrate about
tomorrow’s exam. Or you’re calling for another disaster. There is a saying: Que
sera sera in French, meaning: Whatever will be, will be. So, pray and try your
best. I’ve given you my opinion after a lot of serious thoughts, plz follow
that.
“MIRACLES HAPPENS IF YOU
BELIEVE IN YOYOURSELF”
Didi, things are that they’re.
Things will be that they will be. And, between this two there lies some
miracles that we’re never aware of. And, miracles are often stranger than
facts. Facts are because they’re. Miracles are because we or someone else want
them to be. That’s the truth!
…………Stay in Dhaka, stay alive and well. Dhaka will help you become a poet. When you find yourself in trouble,
close your eyes and drift into imagination. You’ll see
streams of poetry flowing through your heart.
Tanzima…….. Sister, believe me,
this grey, corporate city of yours has never given me either the courage or the audacity to become a poet or a non-poet. Every time I’ve come here,
it has reminded me of a miniature of Pandemonium from Milton’s Paradise Lost. Yet the love and thoughts of certain people sometimes make this ugly city seem like a utopia. It’s because of all these beautiful souls that we have this wondrous journey!
Ask one of your friends to take you
on a motorcycle! Believe me that’s the best solution…U can reach IBA in 20
minutes..
Ok…someone will pick you with on a
motorcycle.
…. Life is stranger than fiction,
I repeat. From myself, I’ve got much less than I truly deserve. From others,
I’ve got much more than I truly deserve. Is it the thing that they call
miracle? I don’t know and never try to know. I let miracles happen and
thankfully they always happen……. Thank you for your generous approach. This
really means a lot to me.

এবং আমার স্ট্যাটাসের শেষ অংশটি ব্যাখ্যা করি। ১৭ জানুয়ারি IBA-র ইন্টারভিউ সেশনে যথাসময়ে পৌঁছানোর জন্য ঢাকা আন্তর্জাতিক
বিমানবন্দর থেকে ঢাকা বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ে মাত্র ৫০ মিনিটের মধ্যে (!!) পৌঁছানো আমার পক্ষে একেবারেই অসম্ভব হতো, যদি না শারমিন দিদি (শারমিন মুইজ) ও
ইরা ম্যাডাম (জোহরা বেবে ইরা) এর আন্তরিক সাহায্য থাকত। তারাই সেই ব্যক্তিরা যারা সেই অলৌকিক ঘটনা ঘটিয়েছেন!!
এবং, রমেল ভাই (মনিরুল আলম রমেল) হলেন সেই “বাইকওয়ালা” যিনি সময়ের সাথে যুদ্ধ করে নির্ধারিত সময় পূরণের সাহস করেছিলেন!!……. এই তিনজন ত্রাণকর্তার প্রতি আমার আন্তরিক কৃতজ্ঞতা প্রকাশ করতে পেরে আমি নিজেকে সম্মানিত মনে করি……… অলৌকিক ঘটনা ঘটে যখন তুমি বিশ্বাস কর!!
আমার প্রিয় বন্ধুরা….. আমার দেয়ালে তোমাদের মনোমুগ্ধকর
উপস্থিতি আমাকে বন্ধুত্বের শক্তি ও
ভালোবাসার জাদু নিয়ে দু’বার ভাবতে বাধ্য করে। হ্যাঁ……… এগুলো গুরুত্বপূর্ণ!! আমি শুধু তোমাদের সাথে চিরকাল থাকতে চাই। দয়া করে কখনো বিদায় বলো না…. এটা ব্যথা দেয়!! তোমাদের দয়া ও যত্ন আমার কাছে অনেক অর্থ বহন করে। তোমরা সবসময় আমাকে আমার প্রাপ্যের চেয়ে অনেক বেশি দিয়েছ। দয়া করে আমার আন্তরিক কৃতজ্ঞতা গ্রহণ করো।
সুখী সামাজিক নেটওয়ার্কিং!!

……… দোস্ত, ১৭ জানুয়ারি বিকেল ৫:৩০-এ
ইন্টারভিউ সেশনে না পৌঁছানোটাই আমার মনে হয়েছিল….. সময়মতো সেখানে পৌঁছানো ছিল আমার নিয়তিতে লেখা….. আর, আমি শেষ পর্যন্ত একে অলৌকিক ঘটনা বলে অভিহিত করলাম, যা আগে আমি কখনো বিশ্বাস করতাম না…… শুধু ১৭ জানুয়ারির কর্মসূচীটা দেখো……
আন্তর্জাতিক বিষয়াবলী পরীক্ষা (বিসিএস
লিখিত পরীক্ষা)…. সকাল ১০:০০ — দুপুর ১:০০
জিএমজি এয়ারলাইন্সের ছাড়ার সময়
৩:২০, কুয়াশার কারণে প্রায় ১ ঘণ্টা দেরি হয়েছিল এবং বিমানটি অবশেষে ৪:১৫-এ উড়াল দিয়েছিল।
বিমানটি বিকেল ৫:০৫-এ ঢাকা বিমানবন্দরে অবতরণ করে এবং তারপর রমেল ভাইয়ের সাথে বাইকে করে নির্ধারিত সময় পূরণের জন্য সময়ের সাথে আমার যুদ্ধ শুরু হয়!! কে আমার জন্য এই তিনজন ত্রাণকর্তা (শারমিন দিদি, ইরা ম্যাডাম ও রমেল ভাই) এর ব্যবস্থা করেছিলেন? আমি জানি না। তুমি বরং আকাশকে জিজ্ঞেস করো! এমন চমৎকার মোটরবাইক চালানো আমি শুধু ইংরেজি সিনেমায় দেখেছিলাম। সেদিনের আগে, আমি কখনো ভাবিনি যে আমি এটা অনুভব করব!!
জীবন মাঝে মাঝে কল্পকাহিনীর চেয়েও অদ্ভুত…. আমার চেয়ে ভালো করে এটা কে বলতে পারে?
…. Thank you, Sir, for your words
of felicitation. IBA of Dhaka University is considered the most prestigious
institute for doing MBA in Bangladesh. As per the rules of that Business school,
the Major/Field of Specialization is allowed to be chosen at the final semester
judging the academic records & intention of a candidate. I don’t have much
idea about what to choose and why to choose. Please share some ideas on it as
you’ve huge practical knowledge (so far as I know) about the present corporate
trend.
….. You’ve nicely stated the trend
of our careerist B-school graduates. No one really cares about his own aptitude
rather, tries to be what market wants him to be. Personally, I always like
decision-making and mainstream operational sections of giant companies. And,
probably I’ll go for finance as my major when I’ve to choose it in my final
semester. Yes, my semester results must be well enough to work on my advantage.
That’s a story of one and a half years later. Till then, I’ll have to undergo
the generalized curriculum as my B-school formulates. The recent economic
recession worries our friends studying at US universities. And, almost all of
them suggest me not to plan of staying there. But, they suggest me completing
my Ph. D. in US if I want to and grab that opportunity. Let’s wait and see…..
Are you in India now? Hope you’re quite ok along with your busy schedule.
Please, sometimes give me your valuable suggestions when you’ve time and you’re
here on Facebook….. Thank you once again for your helpful advice. Take care.
Asif bhai, thanks a lot for your
words of felicitation.

My esteemed friends, please share
the names of at least 2 books that, you think, can help someone become
successful by changing his/her attitude and style of thinking.
four-hour body – tim ferriss / never
eat alone – keith ferrazzi
The mindgym from time warner books.
1. ‘Tumi o jitbay’ by Shib khera
2.’Jonopriota’ by Bidduth Mithro (
projapoti prokashon)….
“Prothom Alo” Part 1 and
Part 2.
Can books or any person change the
attitude of another person so easily? Husband & wife keep trying, to change
the attitude of spouse, for the whole life………and how many succeed is
anybody’s guess
….. That’s true!! And so, they
often say, “Better to study oneself than to study books.”………. I
keep trying to follow some principles and observing how they work or don’t.
Nevertheless, this approach, some books are really thought-provoking and they
really matter in a person’s life. The arena of my thoughts is hardly broader
than that of my esteemed friends. So, I sincerely asked for their help.

If only the girls knew how beautiful they look in saris! The boys in punjabis looked strangely beautiful too!………Only we MBA students looked ordinary and dull!…………Is this how the rest of my IBA life will pass?
Will the rest of my life pass this way too, dressed formally, turned into a bureaucrat?
What else would be left in life then?
Let there be a little unconventionality,
a touch of absent-mindedness………would that really be so harmful?
This corporate hell is quite convincing, at least from Bangladesh’s perspective. I’ve just arrived, don’t know how many more ways I’ll have to compromise, have to stay happy thinking, ‘I’m doing quite well!’…….Most of CUET life passed that way. One consolation: the ‘engineer’ label stuck to me; even that I’ve merely accepted, I can never truly think from my heart, ‘I am an engineer!’…….Don’t know if some new nausea will grip me after completing the MBA!
But our professors are quite interesting! And as for friends, it goes without saying! They all know so much!
The days of spring come and go this way in melancholy resentment,
Everyone is by my side, yet why, alas,
does it feel so utterly alone!

Yes! A player can even risk his life
(except the Pakistani players) only for his country. Pathan makes me think so.
East or West, my country is the best!!
Brother, why exclude Pakistani players? Is it right to make such blanket statements about anyone? I can’t accept this!
Brother, it seems to me that most of their players lack patriotism. The country is like a mother, and for money they betray even that mother. It’s not that others don’t do the same, but the scales of accusation tip a bit heavier toward them. It pains me to even think that someone could humiliate their own country merely for money!

Our players tried their best. That’s
what we want from them. Hope we’ll win the next matches. Good Luck Bangladesh
India has not been this ‘India’
overnight. It took time. We’re improving ourselves in every match. As we’re so
poor, we lack many opportunities that players of other countries are enjoying.
One day we also will win the World Cup. Better days are not far to seek.
My dear Bangladesh rocks!!
Sushanta Paul The GAME is not over
yet!! We’ve other matches to play! Yes, we’ve proved that we can. Just think,
if our bowlers could perform just in their usual manner, the result could be
different. The decision to field first was not a good decision, I think. We
just have to believe that we can win. Only then, we can be very close to
victory!! India is not an easy opponent. Mind it. We must be happy with the
score. 300 could be better, but we’re not frustrated at all. Let’s wait and see
what happens next.
There’s always a Shewag in every
team. Not always he becomes that ‘Shewag’. That’s what we call the
unpredictable nature of game. Think about the start of our team. We scored 50
faster than India. Isn’t it great? The senior most player of our team is only
28! Yet, we tried to show the professional fury.
Stories will always tell us about
the heroism of the hunters till the tigers don’t learn how to write. Till then,
we’ve to wait.
Choosing to field first was really a
suicidal decision…… Not always history repeats itself…. Shakib should
have realized it.

day….. Nothing succeeds like SUCCESS!!
Sushanta Paul My Bangladesh ROCKS!!
I’m ready to believe or disbelieve
anything for YOU, my Bangladesh, my Mother.
Two thumbs up for our players!!
What’s the use of gaining the whole
world losing your own soul? My country is my soul-provider!
Miracles happen always!! Just make a
wish and sincerely believe it and work for it!! The laws of attraction start
working and divine blessings pour on you in some unknowing forms…. I can tell
you this from the experience of my life……
Nothing stirs me more than my
country and countrymen.
The drunken masters are masters,
after all! Yes, being the masters matters. Every moment you live king size, counts!
The moment we win is thousand times precious than the years we’ve wait to meet
that moment. And, the winners will always write the history. That part of the
past we know, that part of the present we’ll know ever. The hunter will always
be a hero till the lion learns how to write…..
We won the match, they lost. And,
that’s true. Victory speaks out for itself! Let’s be a part of it and hope for
the best!
Good Luck Bangladesh!! Wish You A
Happy Ending.

& fielders did it!!
Wake up Tigers!! Victory awaits
YOU!!!
I think the match between Bangladesh
& England is going to be a great show!!
Good Luck Bangladesh!!
Bangladesh defeated Ireland….
Ireland defeated England… The match between England and India was tied….
India is now considered No. 1 team in this World Cup…..
Quest??
Our players can make miracles happen
only if they believe in their worth and work with their fullest commitment.
Yes brothers, it’s true that the
task of stepping on the second sound has become a bit difficult. Let’s not lose
our good hopes….. Que sera, que sera (What will be, will be)……. Hope our
tigers will make things better for us.

unpunished and, in my case, it did so. Three precious years lapsed from my life
just in a reverie of wealth. My dreams proved to be treacherous!!………
Sigh….!!
…….. I’ve already closed P@ul’s,
I’m closing Dovana. Nothing to be done, brother. The demands of time force me to do this. I pray
your exams go well.
……… You’re absolutely right, those days were wonderful! I often suffer from nostalgia,
I remember you all very much. Stay well. May all your exams go well,
this blessing remains with you.
……..Nothing can be done,
brother, I have to do what I must. If anyone you know is interested, let me know……….Which is real,
and which is mirage; this is quite difficult to understand! Many cannot grasp it,
neither could I. Even now I’m spinning in that uncertainty. Do you remember those CUET days?
I remember them very fondly,
they bring me joy. Pray for me. Stay well, stay beautiful.
