Tana’S Thoughts

By Tanzeem Ali

Words, thoughts, emotions and feelings are what unites us humans and also defines our uniqueness. Growing up in a multilingual family I was influenced by my parents to grow a love of writing poems and enthusiastically encouraged by my siblings to write. Most of these poems were composed during my college years in Bangladesh, Thailand and the States. The poem "Trips" is co-authored with my son Areeb about his experiences travelling with me away from his dad while, I pursued my field research in urban Bangladesh. Each of these started as journal entries being very personal reflections of my thoughts and experiences. In the chaotic state of affairs in the world today, even the most negative emotions need to be turned into positive ones. Often times it is not easy but being persistent gets you ready for the journey towards change; by immersing oneself completely to live each day as a collection of beautiful, insightful moments frozen in time. Happy reading and writing dear friends, let your voices be heard.
