serendipityˌ(sɛr(ə)nˈdɪpɪti/)

noun
  1. 1.
    the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way.
    "a fortunate stroke of serendipity"
    synonyms:chance, happy chance, accident, happy accident, fluke; 
    God has a unique way to surprise us. A unique beautiful way. You know, the more i'm growing, i'm learning that; when you crave for something to happen and when it happens, you just can't get any happier. But when good things happen by chance, and surprise you like crazy, i think that's the awesome feeling you get. because it's beyond your expectations, it's shocking yet satisfactory. i don't know i guess i'd love to fall in this type of sweet accident. :') 

    “It's a bizarre but wonderful feeling, to arrive dead  center 

    of a target you didn't even know you were aiming for.” 


    ― Lois McMaster Bujold

    so i would rather let the path guiding me to get a new path. 

    It's not that i'm completely relying on luck and whatsoever, but sometimes i guess mistakes can be really sweet and beneficial. i mean you'll never know, what is really going out there. you'll never know if you're assure of what you really want.In crisis, you may feel what you don't have. Again, being surrounded by all the craved thingies you wanted in your life, you may feel something is really missing. My point is that, expectations and reality can be freaking different. so there'd be gaps in them. it's you who can fill the gap by taking risks, get shocked,exhausting yourself with everything that life throws at you...

    I'm not in mood with philosophy but i think it's fun to pretend like "Ms. know it all" ;)

    Coincidences, yeah they happen for a reason too. May be we don't know what God has prepared for us along the road, so we better trust him, and who knows what he's up to?

    “Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a 
    wonderful stroke of luck.” 
    ― Dalai Lama XIV

    I didn't know that, this wonderful feeling has a name. A beautiful name. 
    Serendipity

    “I may not have gone where I intended to 

     go, but I think I have ended up where I 

     needed to be.” 

     -Douglas Adams
    And sometimes, i feel like,this ain't gonna work. I'm not gonna able to make it. But in the end, i get overwhelmed with the fact that, "i made it through this." 
    Every time it's like i'm changing bit by bit, knowing myself differently, and it's surprising how one person may not know what they're capable of, until they finally go ahead,feel it. 
    “It's possible to go on, no matter how impossible it seems.”

opposite sides of a coin

Hi B,  I've been sort of busy with the training for the job and have another interview coming tomorrow. I am torn between staying with the current job and switching or keeping both as part times. I don't know, I guess I will have a decision made if the interview goes well. I have been traveling far for the current one and every time I get on the bus or the the train I feel depression kicking in full force. Suddenly I remember home, the comfort of being around my loved ones, the easy life I once had back in Bangladesh. Certainly, there are things that weren't easy but I guess it felt easy because I was more used to it. Transport was rickshaw and didn't even think twice before booking an uber because I always had some money with me. Now I have literally 200 dollars to go by and I have to think twice to even buy a cup of coffee or a piece of bread. I guess with time, I will be able to save up some money. I am glad at least I got to start working. It is still very overwhelm...

world war?

 Dear B,  I don't watch the news but there has been a lot of speculations on social media of a possible world war III. My sister just texted me that I should save up money as we don't know what that might do to the economy. It is ironic because I just ordered something online last night. Every time I go out, I spend. I don't even have a good paying job and I spend like I have full time. However, one thing I learned from my past is that there is no point in stressing about the future. What I have control over is now. I can either live in the moment or ruin it by ruminating and what good will it bring to my life? Living alone can get boring. However, I am trying to find things to do. Maybe I will visit a bookstore today. Lets see.  I have rearranged the furnitures yesterday. Cleaned as well. The place looks good.  Maybe I will go IKEA. I love it there. Even though I can't afford furnitures, I just enjoy looking at them. Oh what to tell you B. My in-laws are coming this...

"Because nothing makes me happier and nothing makes me sadder than you.”

“If I had a camera," I said, "I'd take a picture of you every day. That way I'd remember how you looked every single day of your life." "I look exactly the same." "No, you don't. You're changing all the time. Every day a tiny bit. If I could, I'd keep a record of it all." "If you're so smart, how did I change today?" "You got a fraction of a millimeter taller, for one thing. Your hair grew a fraction of a millimeter longer. And your breasts grew a fraction of a—" "They did not!" "Yes, they did." "Did NOT." "Did too." "What else, you big pig?" "You got a little happier and also a little sadder." "Meaning they cancel out each other, leaving me exactly the same." "Not at all. The fact that you got a little happier today doesn't change the fact that you also become a little sadder. Every day you become a little more of both, which me...
