I have not cried since. I don't remember. I was doing fine I guess. I wasn't happy but I was fine. I laughed everyday at the class breaks because  Batman is just too funny. And turtle dove was also being nice with me I don't know for what reason, her attention shifted toward me a bit. Maybe because that Sumo hurt her a bit and she needed someone by her side. I was that someone. I kept believing that I wasn't broken, I was fine. Until today. When singer guy kind of  insulted me in front of everyone and all I could do was stare at him shocked and inside of me was cracking. Wrecking my heart.

He got mad at me for a silly reason. I am kind of ear sensitive. So what happened was, on the way to the restaurant, Batman shouted something on my ear and I screamed out because I got scared...And it startled everyone. So after we sat for our meal, I was making fun of Batman, I wasn't serious and suddenly singer guy snapped at me out of nowhere. He payed for my meal after, maybe as an apology I don't know. It didn't seem like he was sorry for being harsh to me. He knew exactly what he said.
That I don't know street etiquette...

I am sensitive to these things. When people point out what is wrong with me, I get super upset. And it wasn't even my fault. Why would he get so mad at me for that? Yeah I get it, he's having tough days but it hurt me a bit. I can never be that rude to someone. I can never make someone feel bad about themselves.

I didn't say anything to him, I came home and cried at the shower. I hate his superiority complex. I hate how he thinks, he has the right to say anything about a person's character upfront. That was just hurtful. What sucks is that, I love him. I care. If I didn't I wouldn't give a fuck about what he said.

I am just going to sleep now. Not feeling good. I forced the lunch.

It's funny how, yesterday I thought today's gonna go great. When you least expect something it always happens. I had a good day yesterday, so maybe I needed a balance.
It is just a bad day. I shouldn't let myself grief too much. I should let go. But the problem is. He is always on my mind. SO hard to escape him.

    তোর বুঝি ভেঙে গেছে মাথা নাড়া বুড়ো
    ভেঙে গেছে পুতুল খেলার সংসার,
    সময়ে দেখবি সব জোড়া লেগে যাবে
    চুপ কর বোকা মেয়ে কাঁদিস না আর।

    সময় দেখবি সব ভুলায় ভুলিয়ে
    আনকোরা রংগুলো বুলিয়ে বুলিয়ে,
    মিলায় কাঁটার দাগ জোড়া লাগে ফাটা
    জটিলতা হয়ে যায় খুব সাদামাটা।

    তোর বুঝি উড়ে গেছে খাঁচা খোলা পাখি
    উড়ে গেছে আকাশের হৃদয় অপার,
    সময়ে দেখবি তুই নিজেই পালাবি
    চুপ কর বোকা মেয়ে কাঁদিস নে আর।

    সময় দেখবি সব খাঁচা খুলে দেয়
    তারগুলো কেটে দেয় অদৃশ্য ছুরি,
    ভাবনার পাখিগুলো বয়েসের ডালে
    বসে আর উড়ে যায় খেলে লুকোচুরি।

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...

spring is almost here

Hi B,  Season is changing. The hard days are almost over.  The city I live in has turned so beautiful, I get overwhelmed by the beauty.  Tulips are in. Cherry blossoms are blossoming.  Magnolia, Beautiful white flowers, name unknown to me.  Taking a walk out feels like a celebration of life.  It feels like I'm falling in love with the city.  I remember when I first moved here 2 years ago, the excitement and the crippling anxiety of starting a new life from scratch. Now, after 2 years, I feel a warmth and love for the place.  I don't know if I would feel the same when the winter comes though. Seasonal depression is no joke.  My new mantra for life now is to chill.  Praise the nature and find pretty little corners in the city.  Write poems.  Paint, maybe.  Seek positivity.  Love. Be kind to self. No rush. Read books. Just flow.

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...
