    About this ebook

    This book has come about as a result of a father losing the chance to have said, and wanted to say to his children; and as a child growing up. Thinking and writing what I felt and how I planned things? I had no control over how I fitted in to things that were shaping my life. My life was being shaped and I had very little understanding and control over. Growing up in the thick of it made me who I am. On reflection I would change many things in life. I’ve put together a collection of reflections I recorded that affected me and my surroundings. How changes shaped me and my world. This collection is a capture of failures and challenges of a Sylheti that faced growing up in the East End of London.
