A very foggy day.

 It's a very foggy day. Visibility looks 0 to me. Be very careful on the road. If not needed, don't go out. Enjoy your Sunday.

I remember I was going to Cox's Bazar from Dhaka on a very foggy day by bus. Our bus driver was saying, I can't see anything. But he started driving. Then he started following a bus. He said, "Let's follow this bus." If this bus falls into a hole, then I will be careful about it. He was laughing with his helper. I had no idea what was going on. Later, the driver found the tricks. He started driving by himself and sped up. I still don't know what his trick was. But he didn't kill us, this much I can assure you.

Food in Europe

I have started to taste the food from the Swish Airline. I liked the food they served. I found they are not processed and have good taste and quality.

I have tasted food in some European countries, like Switzerland, Germany, Italy, and France. I found that food in Switzerland is very expensive but of good quality. In Italy and France, food is much cheaper than in Canada. But the quality of food is much better. In these two countries, you can find a variety of cultural foods, including Halal options, that are affordable and of good quality.

I wish food prices would go down and stay at a reasonable level. Then people would have to buy more healthy food and stay healthy in life. Healthy people mean a good workforce for the country and less pressure on hospitals and care homes. People might have visited more restaurants. The food, restaurant and grocery business would have done better. Moreover, the travellers would have come to visit more to have a wide variety of food in Toronto.

The most important factor for any area

 I have visited many countries, cities, and homes. One thing I realize everywhere is that you need to keep your area clean. No matter how many other things, like tidiness, expensive items, facilities, or other services you have, if the area or items aren't clean, nothing is worth it.

You need to keep the area, living space, furniture, clothes, and other items clean. My suggestion is to appoint a cleaner, maybe to clean once a day or 24/7 availability. It's good for everybody who lives or has just visited for hours. Everybody will feel comfort. It will also reduce the risk of contracting any diseases.

To keep any area clean, we need to stop making it dirty. People who live in and visit the area should keep it clean. It will help to keep the area comfortable for all. 

From school, kids should learn about it too. So that they will keep the area clean by disposing of garbage in the proper place and cleaning the washroom before they leave, etc.

When you compare a person with an animal

 If you call someone an animal, they will get angry. However, if you call them a tiger or a lion, they will love it, because tigers and lions are famous for their bravery, not cruelty.

If you call anyone an elephant, they won't like it. No matter how intelligent and strong this animal is, people refer to it as a fat animal.

Similarly, the peacock is often seen as a symbol of beauty, whereas people often think of a crow as ugly. In fact, a crow is a very intelligent bird with a long-term memory and is socialized with other crows.

So, it doesn't matter what the animal is capable of; animals are liked or disliked by previous means of human society.

Responsibility attracts me

Situation 1:

 I was working with Election SK as an information officer. I arrived at my designated voting place a little early to set up my workstation. I found that my colleagues had also arrived on time, meaning a little early. Everyone met and created a friendly environment.

In the meantime, an older man arrived. He was responsible for the building authority. He came to help us set up the voting place. He came up to me and said, "I assume you are the manager by watching your work, so let's discuss some formal issues."

I smiled and told him, no I am not the manager. But I can help him as much as possible. Then I took him to the manager.

Situation 2:

I worked at McDonald's as a crew member. I worked at the front, taking orders, making coffee, setting up front stations for tea, coffee, and other items, helping clients place their orders, and, if there were delays, contacting the back kitchen to resolve issues. Sometimes, clients also suggested that others contact me with their problems, and they had faith that I would do something for them. I always tried.

A guy came and said, I assume you are the manager, judging by the way you are dressed and how you are managing everything. So, I need to discuss a couple of things about this branch. I replied that I am not, but I can ask the manager to contact you.

Situation 3:

I was studying at the University of Dhaka. My older sister had been admitted to the same university 3 years earlier. Then I joined. One day, I came home early. My father asked me where my sister was. I said I didn't know. My parents knew we were in different departments, but my dad still got angry with me. He said I should take care of my sister. How could I just leave her alone at the university? I started thinking, who was supposed to take care of whom? But our departments were in different locations, so it was impossible to track each other's positions back then. We didn't have cell phones.

Nowadays, I am trying to change my attitude. Let's not take any responsibility and enjoy relaxing time. Let's try.

Our thought process

 When we hear something good about someone, the first thing that comes to mind is how they achieved it and why we can't. This is not good. Let's think about it in another way. Let's learn to be happy for others' achievements. That won't make us any less than others. It will make us happy and give us the opportunity to learn from others and grow.

Successful business

 Do you know who the successful businessmen are? They are the ones who never solve the problems; moreover, sometimes they encourage the problems to keep their business running smoothly.

An example is road construction. You will find that ancient roads don't need any repair; they are still functional. But modern roads need fixing every year or month. So, the maintenance or construction business keeps going. 

Another example is diseases. As long as it exists, you have to pay for the treatment.

We may say this is unethical, but businesspeople will argue that this is business tact and the way to become rich by hurting innocent people.

I hope they find a proper way to make a profit without harming anyone or leaving the problem unresolved.

Campaign in Bangladesh

 In Bangladesh, tradition/benefit is that when you want to campaign for anything, it could be a business product or any kind of election or services, you can use anything in this country without any permission. Treaditionally it is accepted by the people of this country.

Like, you can write about the campaign, or colour or decorate any wall, like a personal home, office buildings, or any shop. You can put your information on any tree, lamp post, public transport, etc. Especially during elections, the campaign party decorates the whole city. Like they own it.

Forgive them

 There are many times in your life when others' actions upset you and cause suffering. You may react instinctively in the moment. Usually, you'll find that your reaction worsens the situation. Sometimes it might improve the situation, but it can also ruin your mood or damage your relationships with others.

If you say nothing, it might burn you inside and ruin your day. It could also give you a headache.

The best option I see is to forgive them, and also forgive yourself. You'll find you can handle everything better now. With peace of mind, you might discover a better way to solve or reduce the problem, or you will simply be able to ignore it for your own mental peace.

My style

 This is my relaxed way of sitting on a chair. I am still trying to remember to sit straight to keep my backbone aligned.
