Afterlife

What is good about Bangladesh? I was thinking of this few days ago. Then I realized that its an utterly stupid question. The answer is everything and nothing.

It depends so much through which kind of eyes you are looking at the world. The question is as stupid as when you ask a guy in love what he sees in that woman? He sees everything, you see maybe nothing.

Its useless to go comparing, useless to judge. Things change and at times everything is like dancing on the roses in paradise and then soon its like being trapped in a remote developing country with nothing else to do than to sweat.

I am so happy that I had the change to go to a place like Bangladesh. It changed my life. I have no regrets what so ever. At times when it seemed frustrating and also my articles here in the web were reaking of bad emotions, those were all just moments that passed.

Now afterwards those bad moments feel like being part of the deal. They made the whole trip complete. That is the way human mind works. Its not that time puts a silver lining on the memories. No, I still remember exactly how I felt during my worst days. But its past now. And that has made me what I am now. That is why I cherish also those moments.

A learning experience right until the end!

I n few months I will travel back to Bangladesh. And I am looking forward to it!
