Hi! This is what I look like! Photo by Melanie Foster, personal use.  Cheers to a new blog! Ideally, you, the reader, and I, the writer, have never actually met before. Lucky for the both of us, there's much to learn! I truly believe that writing about anything makes one more knowledgeable than before they wrote about it.  While I don't have an eight-course thesis about myself, there are some basic components I would prefer people to know about me before the rest of who I am.

While I can't guarantee what will happen to my later assignments, I'm glad that I have kept a good pace that I can only hope to continue. I have always been fascinated by the beliefs that people hold that I do not hold. It comes from a place of curiosity but I like to see what values and lessons align. I am somewhat familiar with Indian epics since they were common narratives from when I lived in Banglades...
