In my third year of engineering I met a random girl on Facebook. We met in the comment box of a common post. I commented on some image and she replied to that. I continued and soon it became a thread. More people started joining and that disturbed the one-on-one comment streak of us. So, I decided to stop and closed my Facebook. Later that night I got a friend request from her. It was a bit shocking as she seemed a bit popular girl from likes on her pics and the number of friends she had. Anyway, I accepted the request followed by a hi in the inbox. She responded pretty fast and said she loved that comment streak. I reciprocated with equal interest and asked if she wanted to continue that in the inbox. Honestly speaking I didn’t know what else to talk to her. She rejected the proposal and changed the course of conversation. By the time, I opened her profile and found out she’s from Delhi and in second year of her B.tech in EcE . She is really cute and seems funny as pe...

খুঁজে পাওয়া           সুমন আলগা থাকা এই শহরে, আজ আর ঘুম নেই। হয়তো যদি ইচ্ছে গুলো বেঁচে আছে কোনো শেকড়ে, যদি দিব্যি এতোটাই সহজ হতো কিছু আঁকড়ে রাখা। কিছু ভাবনা, কিছু রাগ, কিছুটা খুশি, আর আমি। আসলে সবকিছু ভাবলেই খুব সহজ, বা কঠিন, বসে আছে কোনো সূরমা মগজে সাঞ্জিম। সব শত উঠো বসা ভাবনার যন্ত্রে, এই হাল খুঁজে পাবেনা কোনো বিদ তন্ত্রে। খুঁজে পাওয়া খুব সহজ সুবানির আকাশে, খুঁজে পাওয়া খুব কঠিন আঁধারের বিনাশে। খুঁজে পেও, তবে খুশি থেকো তুমি নাই একাধিক, খুঁজে পাও অহংকারে তুমি তবে শতাধিক। আমি দুঃখ, আমি বেদনা, আমি রাগ, আমি যাতনা, আমি কষ্ট, আমি ব্যাথা, আমি স্বপ্ন, আমিই মহিমা। আমি উল্লাস, আমি কথন, আমি চারিত্রিক পরিসীমা, খুঁজে পেলো অহল্যা, সীমাহীন অসংখ্য বিদঘুটে তথ্য, খুঁজে পাওয়া কি আসলে ? খোঁজাগর ভক্ত।

Scientists have shown that there is a degree of truth in the old adage that love is blind.  They have found that feelings of love lead to a suppression of activity in the areas of the brain controlling critical thought.It seems that once we get close to a person, the brain decides the need to assess their character and personality is reduced.The study, by University College London, is published in NeuroImage.The researchers found that both romantic love and maternal love produce the same effect on the brain.They suppress neural activity associated with critical social assessment of other people and negative emotions.The UCL team scanned the brains of 20 young mothers while they viewed pictures of their own children, children they were acquainted with, and adult friends.The team found that the patterns of brain activity were very similar to those identified in an earlier study looking at the effects of romantic love. Both studies recorded increased activity in parts ...

Viṣṇu is one of the principal deities of Hinduism, and the Supreme Being or absolute truth in its Vaishnavism tradition. Vishnu is the "preserver" in the Hindu triad (Trimurti) that includes Brahma and Shiva. I met him yesterday in my office bus. I was in hurry to step in, and suddenly someone wished me in cheerful voice. I was completely wondered to found him in front of me. Lastly we have met some two years ago at a mobile shop. He was from my senior batch during school days. i felt completely full of gratitude to see a familiar face in the ocean full of unknown. His kind gesture has taught me a very cheerful lesson of life, that is you can win every barrier towards success through your verbal and smile.  VISHNU BHAI , thank you so much for keeping an unbiased and unforgotten impact on my life.    Life is far too short to settle for things you do not want. Whether it be books, food, a bad relationship, or the wrong life: Don’t settle for something you do not e...

This story has everything from love, lust, hate, dominance, obsession, sex, police chases, drug lords, violence, abuse, deceit, betrayal and most of all survival. Know one understood the power that Chirasree controlled over reader's heart. A Spell some would say that could not be broken. An addiction I would say. In the beginning the motivation behind writing the book Loving The Addict was a jotting down in a journal as self therapy to cope with what happened to me. and was used to help me deal with the abuse that had occurred in my life. This is a fascinating story, published purposefully and directly from the author's diary just as it had been written. The author is a natural trained writer and the book is one of her best literary work. Her diary was her only solace in terrible times and the story would not be as powerful or poignant if it had been edited to perfection. To those who do not understand this from the outset, please do not allow yourself to judge the book by tra...

Dear Readers, Greetings from Book Rackoon. Before I write story in brief about my visit of Khijadiya Bird Sanctuary-Jamnagar, I would like to ask one question. Do we really have time to read stories on internet? while there are millions of sites to read? Anyway It was kind of excuse to write story in brief. I went to Jamnagar last week to visit extended family and made my day trip to Khijadiya Bird Sanctuary which is located 15 km from Jamnagar, where sweet water ponds and salty sea water from Gulf of Kutch allows different spices of bird to breed. It is well linked with good roads but surrounded by manmade hassardous (Ship breaking yard-Sachana) However Khijadiya, Jamnagar has preserved many birds and animals to prove that even if we have smaller space to protect Wildlife, we can still save a lot.  I came across many "Nilgay" (Bluebulls-kind of dear) some wild pigs, mongoose, storks, egrets, cranes, herrons, eagle, and many others... Forest department has...
