White

White is what we see when all colors come together in perfect balance
In eastern cultures white symbolizes coldness and sterility.
In wesern cultures it is a symbol of purity, simplicity,innocence, youth ...

Sunsets are awesome.

"We don't appreciate sunsets because we don't have to pay for them."
Oscar Wilde

Inside, looking out

One Solitary Bench

There is a great solitude about such a shore. The woods are never solitary- they are full of whispering, beckoning, friendly life. But the sea is a mighty soul, forever moaning of some great, unshareable sorrow, which shuts it up into itself for all eternity. We can never pierce its infinite mystery- we may only wander, awed and spell-bound, on the outer fringe of it. The woods call to us with a hundred voices, but the sea has one only- a mighty voice that drowns our souls in its majestic music. The woods are human, but the sea is of the company of the archangels.
-Lucy Maud Montgomery

Night Flight from dubai

"Come away with me... in the night,
come away with me and i will sing you a song"
Norah Jones

Flying at night is nice when cities are as beautiful as Dubai

Tunnel Vision

We don’t see the end of the tunnel but I must say I don’t think it is darker than it was a year ago, and in some ways lighter.
John F. Kennedy, speech in 1962

Filight on Kuwait Airlines

"No flying machine will ever fly from New York to Paris ... [because] no known motor can run at the requisite speed for four days without stopping."Orville Wright

I flew Kuwait airlines yesterday it was a good experience. The service was good
and I finally watched The Goblet of Fire on the flight. The stopover in Kuwait was
only about 10 minutes.

Old Yearbooks

"No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of ther beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems."

Anne Rice, "Blood and Gold"

Some of the yearbooks that i have worked on over the last 4 years.

Christmas is almost here

"In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen,
snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter,
Long ago."

Christina Rossetti, A Christmas Carol

Life is a Beach Part Deux

"What's really important in life? Sitting on a beach? Looking at television eight hours a day? I think we have to appreciate that we're alive for only a limited period of time, and we'll spend most of our lives working. That being the case, I believe one of the most important priorities is to do whatever we do as well as we can. We should take pride in that."

Victor Kiam

Life's a Beach.

Chillin at the Beach at Cox's Bazar. This was my third time there, not the last time this year.

" If you’re lucky enough... To be at the beach, YOU are lucky enough."

Power Outage - So What?

The power goes out a lot here in chittagong, especially in the evenings. I do not have a generator, nor do i wish to have one, i still enjoy the candles and the darkness.

" Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us. "
Marianne Williamson, Return to Love, 1992
