Lost Camera, Lost Memories

I am still suffering from the loss occured in the Phi Phi Island, Thailand. I lost my digital camera there, along with many beautiful memories, the device is lost under the white sands of the beautiful island. The lost gadget can surely be replaced with a new one, but what about the moments? Especially the four snaps taken on the plane along with none other than Dr. Yunus, the first Bangladeshi and the third Bengali Nobel laureate! He was kind enough to accommodate me next to his seat and pose...I even gave him my visiting card and asked his whereabouts....I wished him luck and he sought 'our' support in his future endeavours. Well, it was like a trophy to me...the photos....alas it was so short-lived. Everytime I see him now in the newspapers, TV...and people taking photos with him, it pinches me real bad. I wish I had kept the camera with me that day...and not had given it to a friend, who misplaced it. I wish I had not got lost in the island on my way back to the ship, so that I could atleast search for the device....I wish...I get another chance to be next to the most coveted Bangladeshi of recent times.

Bengal Tigers in the Caribbeans

For a long time, some mouths needed to be shut, some critiques needed to be silenced, some insults needed to be retorted and the time has come to keep our heads high and start believing in our claws and jaws.

Hoping to witness the Tigers' forward and upward trails now and always.
