When you have something good inside you, let it be there. let it make its way itself to winning people's heart.
This 18 years of life that I lived and still living, I have encountered various human-beings. Some are family, some are complete strangers and then there's people from school and college. And there were times I had preferably mistaken the good from the bad ones, the real from the fake ones and the honest from the rude ones.
I had always been such a kid, if someone made rude comments about me, I unknowingly kept avoiding that person. No matter how good the person turned out to be, my feelings if they were hurt once, never could be forgotten. And people, their thoughts,they concern me. What they think about me matters to me. It's not that I like to be judged, it's that it helps me to know better of myself. To differentiate what they want from what I want. I myself, constantly judge people in my mind. Actually it's more like observing than judging.

When you have something good inside you, let it be there. let it make its way itself to winning people's heart. That's what I believe. There is no need to show off. And by this I am referring to my Nanu. I know that-nobody's perfect. And perfection isn't something I claim to reality to myself or other people. Nanu definitely has flaws like any other normal human-beings and I have no problem with that. What gives me nausea is her attempt to always influencing people around her. She wants everyone to act accordingly to her way and see the good in her. I get that she's a good, brave woman. I am not denying any of her virtues. But her pride for it, her egoism that ruins what's good left of it. And always interfering, I hate that about her. She needs to stop ordering me around.

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...

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...

healing in progress

 Dear B,  What I learned from the past week is that I tend to take on grief from others in my family like my own. Even though there is nothing I can do about it to ease other's pain. Hence, I suffer internally.  There is a song that I deeply connect with:  Tu Jhoom | Naseebo Lal x Abida Parveen. It kind of goes like this: “What is meant to be yours will find you through any excuse. My heart, understand that there is nothing in your control. You just swirl (let it go)” My brother recently got rejected from a marriage proposal from a girl he really liked. It was arranged but this was his first experience talking with a girl. Seeing him being torn left me in tears as I know how much he was hurting. He is such a gentle soul. I took his pain as if my own and could not sleep at night. Nothing I say could ease his suffering but I still tried to cheer him up. I prayed genuinely for him to be showered with blessings. I want him to experience life, be with someone who would ca...
