My Childhood Memories

Childhood days are the most memorable time of life. Life was beautiful and there were no worries. Like others, my childhood days were very pleasant. I was born in a small village in Pabna district. I have two elder sisters and my grandparents also lived with us. Every morning I went to a morning walk with my grandfather after morning prayers. On this time nature used to be calm and silent and we chat on various topics. After returning from the morning walk I took my breakfast sitting along with my sisters. My sisters helped me to get prepared for school then together we walked for school which was very near to our house. I had many friends in school. After school, every day we played together on our school field. We also helped each other in studies. The most joyful time of the year was summer and winter vacation. During summer vacation we used to swim in the pond for hours. We used to fond collect green mangoes after the hail storm. Winter vacation used to be the most colorful time ...

Social Media and rumors in Bangladesh

We can't deny the fact that social media has become an essential part of our life. It fulfills many of our social needs. Social media often reflects how people of a particular society is behaving. Facebook is the most popular social media in Bangladesh. It is very popular in almost all classes of people. Many people now pass most of their leisure time on Facebook. Many also use it as a substitute for newspapers or Television. But the problem is all the news that we see on Facebook is not true. Many people or groups spread fake news using social media. Consciously or unconsciously these fake news also spread from one person to another. That's how rumor is created and spread. These rumors have a lot of devastating effects on our society. Often a specific community purposely spread rumors and hate speeches against a single person or group of other communities which often results in violence or riot. The 2012 Ramu violence against Buddhist is an example of how dangerous rumors on...

My Grandfather

My grandfather is a 77 years old man. He lives with us. He is the eldest person in our house. He was a professor at a college and now he is retired. My grandfather is a very wise person. He is a bookworm person and he has a small library of his own. He passes most of his times on the library and read books. My grandfather also loves me with all his heart. He tells me stories. He also has vast knowledge in different fields and very often he helps me to complete my homework. My grandfather is also a very honest and kind person. He always has taught me that 'honesty is the best virtue' and always tells me to be kind to every living being around us. My grandfather is very popular in our village. Whenever people have to solve a dispute or need a piece of advice they come to him. He always listens to other people and tries to solve their problems. My grandfather is my idol. I always want to be like him. I always pray to almighty for his long and sound health.

Water Pollution

Water is also known as life. No single living being on this planet can survive without water. The major portion of the earth is covered with water. But pure drinking water is not widely available. Water is the most beautiful gift of nature so it's our duty to protect it from contamination. Without water, our survival will be impossible so we must conserve it. Life is very hard in deserts and drought-prone areas where it's very hard to collect water. To live, we need to eat and water is essential for growing foods. Without water, our economy, society all will be endangered. Without access to clean water, the living become jeopardized. But the water around us is polluted in many ways. Rapid industrialization is one of the major reasons for water pollution. Traditionally factories and mills are constructed on the bank of the river and it results in throwing chemicals and wastage in the water which causes water pollution. Due to the agricultural revolution for better growth of cr...

Air Pollution

We all are submerged in the air. To live, we need to breathe and for breathing, we take oxygen from the air. Without air, our existence is not possible. But the air around us is contaminated day by day. Air pollution occurs through harmful chemicals, smoke, gases, tiny dust, etc. The existence of these elements makes the air harmful to breathe. Mostly air is polluted by man-made reasons. There are many causes of air pollution. Burning of fossil fuels like petroleum, coal, natural gas causes air pollution. Carbon monoxide and other harmful gases emitted from industries also responsible for air pollution. Smoke and chemicals from vehicles like car, buses, trucks also cause air pollution. Burning of agriculture and forest also causes a huge level of air pollution. Mostly people pollute the air for industrial or agricultural purpose. For example, we can mention burning in the Amazon which is also known as the 'lungs of the planet'. People have purposely set fire on different part...

EID Ul Adha

Like Eid Ul Fitr, EId Ul Adha is the biggest festival of Muslims all around the world. The word Adha means the sacrifice of animals. On this day, Muslims sacrifice animals like cow, goat, camel as a symbol of sacrifice. But the inner message of Eid Ul Adha is to sacrifice the inner beast of an individual. At the end of the hajj, Muslims celebrate Eid Ul Adha. Our prophet Ibrahim (as) had a dream where Allah (swt) told him to sacrifice his most favorite thing. So when prophet Ibrahim willingly was ready to sacrifice his own son, Ismail (as), Allah told an angel to switch a lamb instead of Ismail.Qurbani or sacrifice is a must for every Muslim if he has the ability to sacrifice an animal. The meats of the sacrifice are divided into poor ones and relatives. People who do not have the ability to do sacrifice by themselves are the one who deserves to get meats from the rich ones on this day. Like Eid ul Adha, it's our every day's responsibility to sharing food and money with our p...

Rural entertainment of Bangladesh

The life of the rural people in our country is completely different than the city dwellers. Even though we are moving towards becoming a developing nation, but many parts of our country are still undeveloped or underdeveloped. For example, the haor areas, flash flood-prone areas, drought-prone areas, etc. Even there are some areas where electricity has not reached or they have to face excessive power cut. So no need to say that rural people are often deprived of modern facilities and technologies. Still, the main form of their entertainment is sitting together and chatting and roaming around to the neighboring houses. The bonding between them is still deeper and stronger than each other. So in a time of need, the rural people always help each other. They also offer the hand of help on different occasions like- wedding, name giving ceremony. Rural women often help each other in stitching or making pithas. Young rural people often form a clubhouse and organize different matches like a ...
