STREETS OF WEST BENGAL ASKING FOR JUSTICE

~SHONAJHURI HAAT~

Shantiniketan Trip:- Day-1

As a lover of Rabindranath Thakur, I have always dreamt to give a small visit to Shantiniketan. Dream came true. I am sitting in my hotel room right now and I am typing this in my notepad. Pinush (my pishemoshai/uncle) playing a rabindra sangeet "Bodhu micche rag korona"

It was 6:52 a.m. (i love keeping time records for a stupid reason, suppose we meet a problem and a detective arrives and asks me the time i will be able to give the exact time and help the detective to solve the case faster) when me and my family reached Howrah station. Pinush and family came around 8:15 a.m. (the train timing was 8:30 so no issues). We hopped on the train took our seats and waited for the train to arrive at Bolpur Shantiniketan Station. We got down from the train at 12:00 p.m. (dot time XD) We took a Toto and reached at our hotel. We took bath, had our lunch and left for Shonajhuri Haat

Shonajhuri Haat was the best place... It felt like I have teleported to the era of Rabi Thakur. Believe me, every single one was wearing traditional dress. Men and boys were wearing Punjabi, Jeans. Some even wore punjabi and dhuti. Women and girls were wearing Saree, churidar, kurti, short kurti and long skirt. Even I was wearing traditional. Tribal dances and baul gaan were my favorite part of the haat. Everyone was "Rabindrik". People singing rabindra sangeet while roaming around the haat, chatting about Rabi Thakur's Uponyash, Choto Golpo, Kobita and what not.

Some tribal, residents of Shantiniketan sold their creative items like Handmade Saree, punjabi, churidar, coat, umbrella, handkerchief, pencil box, diary. Handcrafted Jewelry and alot. We purchased a lot of things. Some titbit of eye-talk or eye-contact happened with a random guy.(he was handsome and was rabindrik from inside cause he was not wearing traditionals but he was very much into the haat and everything present) It felt good, people reading this have all the right to judge me but I felt good.

খোকার মনের ঠিক মাঝখানটিতে

আমি যদি পারি বাস নিতে-_

তবে আমি একবার

জগতের পানে তার

চেয়ে দেখি বসি সে-নিভৃতে ॥

তার রবি শশী তারা

জানিনে কেমন ধার!

~ রবীন্দ্রনাথ ঠাকুর

I took all these photographs in my camera. I don't know but I looked very beautiful today and felt good as well. I was carrying a camera and was clicking the pictures of every single thing present there. I felt very happy and peaceful. I don't have much words to describe more. I described the whole shonajhuri haat.

(We purchased a lot of cloths and fun moment, nothing was a good fit for my older brother because he is freaking tall and a little chubby. I am waiting for a bookstore in order to purchase a lot of books of Rabindranath)

Thats all for today (second blog coming soon and I am having a very nice trip getting no time to surf my mobile phone XD)

I have to tag these mutuals of mine

Lemme post some Rabindra Sangeet too 📜🍁

"I have a deeply hidden and inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life." -Virginia Woolf.

কিচ্ছু চাইনি আমি, আজীবন ভালবাসা ছাড়া ৷ আমিও তাদেরই দলে, বারবার মরে যায় যারা ৷ না না কিচ্ছু চাইনি আমি, আজীবন ভালবাসা ছাড়া ৷ আমিও তাদেরই দলে বারবার মরে যায় যারা....

জীবনে কিছু মানুষ ভালোবাসতে নয়, ভালোবাসার গুরুত্বটা বোঝাতে আসে।

আসলে যে কোনও ভেঙে যাওয়া জিনিস জোড়া লাগানো গেলেও, মন জোড়া লাগেনা। মানুষ বয়ে বেড়ানোর ভয় মানুষ খোঁজে, যে মানুষ জুড়তে না জানলেও মুঠো করে ধরে রাখে। ভীষণ কালো রাতের বুকে হাত বুলিয়ে দেয় ভোরের মত। আমাদের হারিয়ে যাওয়া ছেলেবেলা ফিরিয়ে আনে আদর করে।

নিস্তেজ করে তলে তাদের ধৈর্য্য। কেউ ভালোবাসবে, যত্ন করবে, এগুলো ভেবে শিউরে উঠি না পাওয়ার তাগিদে, ঠিক তখনই কেন জানি না কিছু মানুষ তৃষ্ণায় জলের মতো, রৌদ্রে ছায়াপথের মত, আর কবিদের কোনঠাসা আবেগের মত আমাদের বারবার, বোঝাতে আসে, – যা কিছু রূপকথা, সবটাই সত্যি! বিশ্বাস করুন, সবটাই সত্যি।

খুব ভালোবাসি তোমায়।

Drink coffee, then walk for 1hr, overthink for sometime, think about the pros and cons like what my life would be if I stop making me feel bad and what my life would be if I make me feel bad..

Ask this to yourself, look in the mirror and say:+

I CAN DO IT WITH A BROKEN HEART

I AM SO UPSET I ACT LIKE ITS MY BIRTHDAY EVERYDAY

I AM SO OBSESSED WITH HIM BUT HE AVOIDS ME

LIKE A PLAGUE

YOU KNOW YOUR GOOD WHEN YOU CAN EVEN DO IT WITH A BROKEN HEART

I really really really want to kill my feelings. It's hurting me. But I just cannot. I cannot, till I'm alive. Every inch of me is getting hurt but still I'm letting it burn bright inside me. Maybe it making me glow while perishing everything within.

I have been watching "dhruv rathee" for quite a long time and I understood that I am the most dumb person ever who lacks general knowledge. How can someone have a luggage full of knowledge?! I really admire him because he is the most perfect person I have ever seen (practical person for sure).

My first video of dhruv rathee was "the monalisa mystery" and he gave such good lot of Info's about the world famous painting. My mom told me, "see, he makes videos about everything which we witness in our everyday life, you read books, you also make review videos about the books which you read."

She is right, but I am lazy. So its better for me to see his videos. By seeing him at least I can be an influential person. (He is hot too but his info's are more hot)

I have seen in my 17years of life that I was the only one who wanted or still wants to hold onto people. For example I always tell my close ones that, "say that you will never leave me" or "you will stay, right? I hope you won't go away?"

me, yes, I was the only one who wanted people to stay in my life. However, nobody ever told me to stay or never leave them. For once I wanna hear this. From my very own initiative I have told people that "I won't leave you" but nobody ever told me "I hope you won't leave me, would you?"

I am the most hated person in school right now. I really don't have a friend who will only stay with me, will roam around with me, fool around, talk shit, study together, help each other, support each other and what not. I hope I will always be alone. My paternal family members likes loneliness but I can't bear that.

There are things which I really wanna do all alone like, bunjee jumping (spelling might be wrong), bike riding on a highway (harley davidson heritage classic), driving, jump into the river and swim, weight loss, aesthetic life and what not.

Still I wanna do things with someone like I wanna a have a wishlist with someone. Only me and her/him.

Thats alll

Once I start wearing a payal, do all these nakhre waagera, and all the things which are written above, Its over for boys.. 😭💗 I am hella sure my delulu crush, and the crushes from whom I moved on will be head over heals for me.. THATS WHAT MAA SAYS!! IS THAT TRUE??? IF I START BEING GIRLY, GUYS WILL LIKE ME??

@intellectual6666 @zakhmpemarham @arjokonna @anarkali-disco-chali @existingwhy is my mom right??

the intimacy of paayals is so simple but beautiful. makes one yearn for honey-lit evenings and soft hushes against ones ear as they push your hair being it. brushing hands as they pass you by, a secret just for you to keep and cherish. the blush of the rose they leave on your desk each morning and the cups of chai with hands that are warmer than them. tinkling of jhumke in havelis and an arm around you chaat ki galiyon mein. handwritten letters slipped in notebooks and fixing their bindi before booping their nose. falling in love with their itr and their kaajal lined eyes. yes indeed the intimacy of paayals is so beautiful yet simple.

Where are u sweetheart

Honey.. My exams were going on and I was busy with studies and was also into depression.. So yeahhh now I am fine.. Ekdommmmm jhakassss nandduuu

"Not all men" — enough already. It's always men trying to make everything about them. It's not about you; it's about women. Stop assuming the world revolves around you. When a woman says "all men," try to understand what might have led her to say that instead of immediately jumping to "not all men."
