:-))

I'm a simple and down-to-earth guy; like to make friends.. like to lead my life in all positive ways.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All of my family are indian citizens, living in W.B. Birbhum, near Bolpur (at Rabindra Nath Tagore's Shanti Niketan & Bisva Bharati University).
We are 3 brothers, and a sister. My sister got married there.
Only I'm still Bangladeshi. In spite of my mother/family request, I'm not willing to leave my Bangladeshi nationality. I love to live here.
I'm a converted Christian. All of my family and relatives are still Hindu.
I was baptized as a Catholic Christian in 2000.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My mother was from India, father was Bangladeshi.
I was born in Kotalipara, Gopalgonj; but from my very boyhood I brought up in Dhaka, @ a Missionary boarding school.
In 1990 my father had died.
I was sent to the boarding in 1991.
In 1993, my family fled to India because of threat from the local Muslim gang. Those Muslims forcefully occupied our lands & other properties.
Thus I became separated from my family. None of my family could come back to BD. I wasn't able to see them too.
At last, in 2002, I became able to go India and met my family, AFTER LONG 10 YEARS!
Then for 2 years, I was out of study. Was busy with family reunion, travelling accross india. Also was very confused & uncertain - what I would do, where would stay... But always I missed Bangladesh.
So at last I became determined and back to BD, started study (BBA) in 2004.
From then, I visit my family in india 4-5 times (4-5 months) per year.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here in Dhaka, I stay in Md.pur in a small rented house. But mostly stay in Savar with my God-parents' family & God-sister's family.
As a Catholic tradition, at the time of Baptizm, every Christian should have a God-father & God-mother along with biological parents.
I'm proud of being one of my God-parents' family.

from Holy Bible:

Luke 10:27

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

John 15:12-17

"This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you.

No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

These things I command you, so that you will love one another."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 Corinthians 13:4-13

"Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
