We have lost our humanity. We are divided, unable to stand united and this is the result that is slowly dragging us toward a third world war.
We pray to Allah to save us. But deep down, we know the truth: we built this destruction with our own hands. It did not come overnight. Allah showed us the way. He gave us guidance. Yet we chose to make our own rules. We handed power to people and raised them so high that they almost became our gods. And now we cry, asking why Allah is not helping us.
Allah helps those who strive in His path, those who act according to His commands; not those who knowingly reject His guidance and follow man-made systems that contradict what He asked from us.
Today, might seem to be right. We made our choices, and now we are facing their consequences. There seems to be no escape door left except one: unity. If we can still stand together, if we can still rise above our differences, there may still be hope. But when our own people betray us for power and position, what can we expect?
They unite when it comes to control and authority, while we fall apart over pride and emotion. We are left with our feelings, our anger, and our duas, but duas alone are not enough without action, discipline, and unity.
If we truly want change, we must first change ourselves. Change the system.

"When the war is over, we’ll get married and the earth will grow flowers like you, and your womb will carry the most beautiful girl in the universe.."

Somewhere else, somewhen else, we’re still lying beneath the same stars. In a parallel world, we still find each other under the night sky..

May all the broken souls find a way to peace for each other ………♥️

আগামীকাল নির্বাচন। ফেসবুক জুড়ে শুধু ট্রল আর ট্রল। প্রত্যেকের একটাই কথা, খারাপ আর নিকৃষ্টের মধ্যে একটা তো বেছে নিতেই হবে!
মেয়েদের অধিকাংশকেই দেখলাম তাদের পরবর্তী পোশাকের স্বাধীনতা নিয়ে সন্দিহান। মজা আকারে পোস্ট দিলেও সেখানে ভয়ের চিহ্ন স্পষ্ট। হাসবো নাকি আতঙ্কিত হব বুঝি না। একটা দেশের শাসক কে হবে, সেটা নিয়ে জাতির অভিব্যক্তি যদি এখনই এমন হয়, তাহলে আমরা কতটুকু উন্নয়ন আশা করতে পারি?
তার মানে কি আমরা আমাদের ভাগ্য ছেড়ে দিয়েছি? ধরে নিয়েছি কিছু করার নাই, মন্দের ভালো হলেই চলবে? ক্ষুদ্র মস্তিষ্কে যতটুকু বুঝি, আসন্ন সময় ভালো যাবে না। যে দলই আসুক ক্ষমতায়, সাধারণ মানুষ খুব বেশি কিছু পাবে এমন বিশ্বাস জাগে না। এই পলিটিক্স শুধু কেড়ে নেয়। যখন যে শাসক আসে, সেই ‘রক্তমাখা পচে যাওয়া আসনে’ বসে আবার রক্ত চোষা শুরু করে।
দোষ কোনো এক ব্যক্তির একার না। দোষ ওই আসনের। কারণ সেটা বহু আগেই পচে গেছে। এখানে ভালো কিছু আশা করাও যেন বিলাসিতা। কেউ যদি মেরামত করতে চায়ও, তাকে টিকতে দেওয়া হবে না; কখনো নীরবে, কখনো প্রকাশ্যে সরিয়ে দেওয়া হবে।
এটাই রাজনীতি। নোংরা রাজনীতি। ছোট থেকে দেখে আসছি। তবুও কেন আমরা আবেগের বশবর্তী হয়ে এই খেলায় মত্ত হই জানি না। মন্দের ভালো বেছে নিয়ে নিজেদের ভাগ্যবিধাতা নির্বাচন করি, নিজেদের প্রভু বানাই, তারপর দোয়া করি এবার যেন আঘাতটা একটু কম লাগে!
হায়রে জাতি! তবুও আমরা এক হব না। সংস্কারের কথা বলে চিৎকার করব, কিন্তু সিস্টেমের বিরুদ্ধে আঙুল তোলার সাহস আমাদের নেই। আজ কেউ যখন কাউকে হারায়, সেই শোক তার হৃদয় পর্যন্ত পৌঁছায়। কিন্তু আমরা শোকে এতটাই অভ্যস্ত হয়ে গেছি যে আমাদের অন্তর বরফ হয়ে গেছে। বিভক্ত আমরা, দুই ভাগে ছিঁড়ে গিয়ে একে অপরকেই কামড়াচ্ছি। ইবলিশ জয়ী হচ্ছে আর মানবজাতি নিজেদের মাংস নিজেরাই ছিঁড়ে খাচ্ছে!

📽️ Oppenheimer
J. Robert Oppenheimer, father of the atomic bomb. A chain reaction that would destroy the world!
I've always had a fascination about quantum physics, although I'm not good at this. I love to read the theory of physics and chemistry, I found a great interest here. But don't find me a pro at solving mathematical equations 🤦‍♀️
Anyway, I thought this movie would be based on quantum physics or about the creation of an atomic bomb, so i was eager to watch this. But i was wrong. Here Christopher Nolan shows that, how the mastermind and father of the atomic bomb, became a victim of work/office politics and how his life was almost destroyed by the jealousy of his fellow colleagues. So yeah, this film is the biography of American theoretical physicist, Oppenheimer. I was amazed by Christopher's work, and obviously Cillian Murphy also did an amazing job. We got to see real life duality here!
The film is good, no doubt. But when it comes to atomic bombs, I am silent! We all know the dangers of this creation. Even Oppenheimer, when he finally realized that his discovery would not only make history, but that it might make him history's villain, said, "Now I become death, the destroyer of worlds."
.
His invention was used in Japan during World War 2, in the two cities we all know, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It helps the American president to stop the war in a second, and save the American soldiers! But it is sad how it destroyed those cities. How many people died is probably fundamentally unknown. It shows 70,000 in Hiroshima, +40,000 in Nagasaki and a total of 110,000. But we don't know the real facts. If you've seen Grave of the Fireflies, I must say you've cried. And when you watch Oppenheimer, you'll feel your heart ache, you'll feel your stomach ache.... Cause you can relate the pain you’ve experienced in gave of fireflies!
Oppenheimer says that we scientists know the outcome, what this chain reaction can lead to. But people will never understand until they experience it. And yes, he was right. Now Russia, America, UK, Pakistan, India, France, China, North Korea all have this power in their hands, but they know the result. So they won't think of using it. Or will someday who knows! So Oppenheimer is a villain or a hero? I don't know, he just works for his country. But all I can say is, innovation is not bad, it's how you use it that matters. Now we humans are our main destroyer, main enemy. We are not united, and that's the result! We killed each other, and considered it our victory, our achievement!

Life moves in a quiet mystery
we walk, we stumble, we learn,
but never fully understand.
Here, some live everyday, n some die everyday!

By the time wisdom softly settles in,
the pages begin to close....

How strange —
to live a story we never rehearsed,
to love, to lose, to start again.

Perhaps that’s what makes it beautiful —
every ending is only another beginning in disguise!

📝 Naked truth of life..

Serving up a little sweet happiness made with love, by me.... 🫣😌

We all heal in different ways, and I think cooking/baking can be one of them. And the secret ingredient is always love! ♥️

And yeah, I try to plate everything nicely with my award-winning ‘please don’t judge me’ presentation skills 👻

Allie: Do you think that our love can create miracles?
Noah: I think our love can do anything we want it to!🥀

Life will knock you down, but if you keep fighting with hope and hard work, happiness will find its way.
Never lose hope.. Keep fighting Afsu 🦋🌻

We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart and
My heart will go on and on... ♥️
