My Ordinary Life

by | 17 Aug 2015

In my personal life there is everything present for me to be happy. I am happy somewhat but I don’t feel satisfied. My existence doesn’t mean much outside of my family. If I die today I will be forgotten very fast. This world will not miss anything because of my absence. Somehow I have become a space filling mediocre human. In the grand scheme of creation may be I have no value but in my home planet I wanted to be something at least. However, may be I dream too much. It feels like I have gone past the time of becoming someone, so I can only stay what I have become and there is no chance of improving anymore. I feel defeated and realized all my dreams will always remain so.

I bought two dahlia plants with 2/3 small flowers last summer from Walmart. After planting them in my front yard I was pleasantly surprised to see so many beautiful flowers during summer and fall. However, I didn’t know that they had bulbs underneath the plants, so...

Empathy!

On 03 November 2018 I was coming to USA from Bangladesh and I got sick in the plane. When we landed at Shannon Airport, County Clare, Ireland I started shaking in the queue to final checking before flying to JFK airport, New York, USA. I was shaking because my fever...

Visiting Parks

During this summer I started to take my kids to different parks, so they can spend some time outside of the house and get some physical movements rather than playing video games the whole day. I take pictures every time we go outside. Also, I make videos of less than...

Kurbani

This was the first year when I went to butcher shops for Kurbani of Eid-ul-Azha (Annual religious sacrifice). We deposited $500 to a butcher shop in Pipersville, PA to get a bull of around 1800lbs. That was a Thursday and he told our organizer that he only had big...
