A New Beginning

Part 1:  The North Wind Part 2:  The Tiger Eye Part 3:  Mystical Butterfly This is Part 4 finale of the series. ********************************************************************************* The stars were contemplating to drowse off in the early Autumn sky. There was a cool morning breeze, and the breeze ushered in a Traveler back home. A girl stepped out of a car. She was fair, with streaks of dark brown hair. The old bells at the gate chimed softly. An old man tucked in his bed, deep asleep, opened his eyes and looked towards the door through which faint light came into his room. And there was a sparkle in his old green eyes, a soft smile flashing across his lips.

কেন, মা...

As I stare out from the window Of my closed dark room, City lights sparkle. Be in happiness or in gloom, I sit every evening to witness this show.

As I walk from home to office, everyday during the cold winter mornings, I find myself walking on the sunny side of the road, along with a myriad of people – some street smart folks, some enjoying their morning drag, some health conscious beings jogging their way along the harbor and some professionals like me bustling their way to work – all on the sunny side of the road.

In Pursuit

This is my attempt at trying to capture the constant thirst for answers to the questions we often ask ourselves. Although, we are never sure if the answers we have is precise, the pursuit of our answers is a journey in itself. A little girl once asked, Who do I fear most? For whom should I care? What makes the sun so bright and the moon so fair?
