It’s like any other day for me today, as usual rushed out from my office towards my classes. I got out of my office and ran towards the bus counter to catch my Business Mathematics class. One class I would hardly like to miss. The same old teacher, the same old mates, the same old mathematics … hmm ……. pretty boring. But, still something happened in that 1 and half hour, for which I am here now, in front of my computer gathering words. Mr. Sayeedul Karim a very charming and dazzling personality, when he comes up with his lectures it amazes each and everyone of the class. O yes …. he did amaze me , not with his marvelous English pronunciation or the way he teaches, but the words and speeches he give. O yes ….. he did create some moment. What was there in his speech that made me so amazed. Well, if you ask me the summary, then probably for some it would be same usual lectures, for some they would answer … “we know it all, what’s so new about it”. For me, it was something we always know, we experience each and every day, we breathe every moment, its LIFE!
Life … yes we do survive, rush and get busy in our everyday life. But have we ever thought about it?? Frankly speaking, we all do think of life. Everyone thinks of life, but in a different perspective. Probably for someone life is beautiful, for someone its fun, for someone it’s giving, for someone its winning, for someone it’s not the kind of life they expected. But still, it’s LIFE! Someone told me the other day … “bacho” (in bengali), in english which means LIVE. Now here the question arises what do we mean by living? Well we all are living, then why did that someone told me that?? Perhaps the way I live, it does not mean LIFE to him, or may be the way he lives that’s LIFE to him. O wait … now I’m getting confused, what is LIFE actually?? MMM….may be Life is “magic”. May be its all about creating magic. Now, are we magicians that we need to create magic?? Huh…!!!Well we all are magicians in our life. Mr. Sayeedul Karim, he is a magician. Let me explain how… A man who could have earned 20times more by going abroad, he is just passing his life by teaching students in a third world underdeveloped country only for his passion towards teaching. O yes …. for me he is a magician. A teacher who remembers his dead students in front of 45 students and makes a powerpoint presentation explaining what he had learnt from his students, is indeed a magician. The moment he created, the moment he made and the moments he had in his life from his students, probably that is LIFE. May be I’m wrong, may be my words are shattered and scattered. But how many times in life do we feel like enduring a moment? Many times in our life we experience some moments, those moments are priceless, precious than an expensive diamond ring! How many times do we create those moments? How many times we make those moments in our life? O yes … many magicians are there in our life. I witnessed a magician today. He taught us today that life is not about earning A’s or grades, or money or having high luxury life. It’s all about creating magic in our life, someone else’s life, making a moment, it’s all about moments.

This shows we are getting matured with time, trying to understand life from our own point of views……….

Oaow!!! Excellent piece of english writing. I have only one question in my mind. Write something in wordpress with 100% correct grammar is your Life. Is it called Life?
