For as long as I can remember, Sakib has been my "image source" for virtually all my philosophical shit posts. He has a nag for understanding exactly what vague images I want for my posts. My theory was, my posts makes no sense, neither should the images that go with it. Difficult concept, but somehow Sakib grasped the entirety of it!
I don't usually go places to take random pictures. I just take my বাপের সম্পত্তি Sakib's pictures whenever I need them. But with a new phone that has a decent enough camera on it, my fingers were itching for a while to try out some shit clicks for some future philosophical shit. নতুন নতুন বাল গজালে যেমন শেভ করতে ইচ্ছা হয় তেমন আর কি.
I have always written a post first and then looked for an image that makes no sense later. But now that I already have an image that makes no sense, I find writing something that makes no sense either is actually quite difficult.
When I started, I had no idea where I wanted this to go. I had no planned ending, no planned storyline. I just wanted to use the image, that is all. Does it not sound familiar? Have we not all had that impulse to just do something and not have the consequences in mind of what may or may not be? Deep down inside we've all wanted to be free birds, and hence Icarus took to the skies. He flew like a free bird, till reality kicked in, and the wax melted.
The moral of this story could easily be felled into the age old "Grass is always greener on the other side of the fence."
But maybe for once we let the raindrops patter and let the grass be greener on whichever side of the fence we want it to be.
