 I am moving to new country soon. 

I have a lot of mixed feelings going on right now about leaving my parents, my brother, my friends, everyone back here. I don't know if I will make enough for airfares but I do want to come back and be in touch with them. I am bit nervous and also excited starting this new chapter of my life...

I realized I have gotten almost everything once I dreamed of. I did fall in love, I did marry the love of my life, and now I am leaving this country soon to be with him and grow old with him. 

My life has been traumatically beautiful. I say traumatically because once upon a time, I believed that I would never be happy or that I am unlovable, or that I won't have friends...

I have a life now surrounded by people I care about and I am loved and cherished. 

My only worry right now is my brother. 

He has been in and out of jobs and struggling with adulthood. I just hope he finds clarity and peace and be self sufficient. 

In this world if you're not self sufficient, things can get very rough and tough. 

I guess, I will have challenges of my own, living in a new place. 

However, I am very much content with the person I am going to live with. 

He is my peace, my rock, my soul mate. 

I can't be any happier joining him and build a home together.

Love wins

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...
