তাই অনেক যন্ত্রনা যাবে ফুরিয়ে একদিন,
তত ভারাক্রান্ত মন যাবে জুড়িয়ে একদিন,
কেউ হঠাৎ শান্তি খুঁজে পাবে কুড়িয়ে একদিন,
সময়, সময়
সময়।

[ছবির সাথে কথার মিল খোঁজার চেষ্টা করে না পেলে আমি দুঃখিত, আমার নিজের মনে একটা ব্যাখ্যা আছে।]

Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane but the memory remains

Heavy rings on fingers wave
Another star denies the grave
See the nowhere crowd cry the nowhere tears of honour
Like twisted vines that grow
Hide and swallow mansions whole
And dim the light of an already faded Prima Donna
Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane
Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane but the memory remains.
[Memory Remains, Metallica]

"Just living is not enough... One must have sunshine, freedom, and a little flower."-Hans Christian Andersen

Now, question yourself are just living or living with life? Are you getting flower? Showering in bright sunshine? Enjoying freedom in open field??
Or, you are just having a life just for living??

At some period of journey, they felt I'm special
They were born to do something special
They had dreams, dreams to conquer the life!!!
But didn't understand then the ugly truth
The truth which states, "Life is an ugly son of bitch you looser."
It can never be conquered, never be defeated.
It will and it will give them taste of loosing,
And, then....the defeated souls will live the life, live the life not feeling special
Having no dreams, to hopes, someday the will decay.
Decay in sunshine, decay in snow, in rainfall.
Oh, those fucking decaying souls!!!!

The Garden of Eden (Hebrew גַּן עֵדֶן, Gan ʿEdhen; Arabic: جنة عدن, Jannat ʿAdn) is described in the Bible's Book of Genesis as being the place where the first man, Adam, and his wife, Eve, lived after they were created by God. Literally, the Bible speaks about a garden in Eden (Gen. 2:8). This garden forms part of the Genesis creation narrative and theodicy of the Abrahamic religions, often being used to explain the origin of sin and mankind's wrongdoings.

The Genesis creation narrative relates the geographical location of both Eden and the garden to four rivers (Pishon, Gihon, Tigris, Euphrates), and three regions (Havilah, Assyria, and Kush). There are hypotheses that place Eden at the headwaters of the Tigris and Euphrates (northern Mesopotamia), in Iraq (Mesopotamia), Africa, and the Persian Gulf. For many medieval writers, the image of the Garden of Eden also creates a location for human love and sexuality, often associated with the classic and medieval trope of the locus amoenus.

The Book of Genesis does not state a physical geographic location for the garden of Eden, but ideally it is "the garden of God" or divine home (Ezek 31:8-9). Also, according to some ancient myths, all of the world's major rivers flow out of the divine home. Genesis 2:10-14 names the garden of Eden as the source of four rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates, great waterways of Mesopotamia, and the Pishon and Gihon. Four waterways were possibly cited because in ancient times, similar to today, the world was charted in four different directions, North, South, East and West.

It's been a while I uploaded the last photo in flickr. I wasn't taking photographs in last few months for some personal problems. After the break I wouldn't say I'm refreshed but I will try to upload photographs now and then here.
