Letter to our thoughts

It was the times of the lakes, the trees overlooking the waters and thinking well where has that red fish gone today? When the grasses are telling stories to each other and giggling at the birds who are snoozing in the branches, yawning in the raining morning rays from the bored sun who thinks well, life is sooo monotonous...the boys are walking towards their schools some pelting stones at the innocent quiet waters of the lake and yelling out wishes of the bouncing stone which they might visualise in the afternoon breaks...the clay road is thinking what more weight can we expect today that might distort my surface and make me realign into unknown structurals...the lake is still now waiting for some ripples to happen either from underneath or from the skies and the wretched tree gaping at its natural existence and weathering and dropping into it its dryness as leaves...at times there is a joy and at times it a curse being a part of this world, sometimes we feel that we have earned something here but we haven't got that what we need and what we wanted has no existence in our vicinity but still we have something that we didn't want but is better than nothing in our lives, maybe smiling at our fate will give us more benefits and we will someday laugh heartily and remember that we used to be children once with lots of desires, of unknown wants and dreams but we are happy still today that we haven't lost our innocence to laugh out and promise more laughter for our future.

The tyred life

Everyday whenever we venture out of our comfortable homes we have to walk on the government roads sometime or the other, somehow or the other. We are this world's most blessed creatures as we have the privilege of providing the most valuable provision to the passing by vehicles, the passing space. We might be walking, cycling, riding a two wheeler or a four wheeled vehicle however if there was no person on the road considering our presence then it would have been a nightmare moving ahead. Its not an option for us to stay put on the lane and disallow others from freely moving ahead of us. If we think that we are stubborn or may have been made so by the person behind us moving closer to our existence on this road then god forbid what would happen if he manages to cross us recently. There would be words filling up his mouth so casually out of distaste, frustration or anger which would never have happened if we allowed them ahead of us on time and as per their will. Its all in the min

There was a time when people used to slog the entire day for a handful of money. Nowadays the situation has become so that even slogging does not make your hands full even at the end of the month. We were born as infants, nurtured, nourished and cared to become someone's son and someone's old age stick. Even after becoming elder to that infant we did not learn one thing that our parents, siblings and neighbours did not teach us about. It was our own jurisdiction, nurturing and upbringing of our own self, our decisions, our faith and our thoughts. We took in the book's theories, we learn't how to add, subtract, multiple and divide but we did not learn that we had to feed our mind too. The school had children, a lot of them at that however we were made to like, appreciate and follow their ways in some way or the other. As if we are like some electronic device in native unprogrammed state and will get the code engraved as soon as we start interacting, listening and unders

আজ বিন্দু কাল বিসর্গ

সব কিছুই বদলে যায় । এই যেমন ধরা যাক ইংরেজদের শাসন কালে বাঙ্গালিরা কদাচিৎ ইংরাজি ভাষা নিয়ে কোনো মাতামাতি করত না। তখন মানুষ নিজেদের বাঙালি হওয়াতে গর্ব বোধ আর সাহিত্যে যুগান্তকারি কিছু লেখনি লিখতে পারত। তাদের মধ‍্যে বিন্দুমাত্র বিদেশি দ্রব‍্য, ভাষা, আচার বিচার, বেশভূষা অথবা চরিত্র নিয়ে মাথাব্যথা ছিলনা আর এইসবে মশগুল হওয়া ছিল নৈব নৈব চ। তখন মানুষ একত্রিত হয়ে কৌশল আদান প্রদান করত যাতে তারা ইংরেজদের বিদেয় করতে সক্ষম হয়। বিনয় আদানপ্রদান আর একে অপরের সুখ‍্যাতি করতেই মানুষের দিন পেরোতো। সংসারে থাকত এক ভালোবাসার পরিবেশ যেখানে তাদের সম্মান দেওয়া থেকে ফেরত পাওয়া অবদি একটা চক্র সম্পূর্ণ হতো। মানুষ শিক্ষায় মেতে থাকত যা তাদের মস্তিষ্ককে আরো উর্বর করে তুলত, জ্ঞানের বৃদ্ধি আরো তাদের চরিত্রকে উন্নততর করে তুলত। ব্রিটিশদের সঙ্গে যুদ্ধ করার সাহস আর আবেগ এই বাংলা মাটির শিক্ষাই বাঙ্গালিকে তুলে ধরল। তারপর বিকেল ঘনিয়ে যখন সকাল হলো, দেশ স্বাধীনতার প্রথম স্বাদ পেল তখন সবাই বুঝতে পারলনা তারা কতটা ভাগ‍্যবান, তারা কতটা বড় জয়লাভ করে এই মুহুর্তে পৌছেছে। তারা সরকার গঠনের দিকে চেয়ে রইল, যে সরকার তৈরি হয়ে গেলে প্রত‍্যে
