I grew up in a middle class family. I was born in Kushtia. My father was a government officer. He had to work in different towns due to transfers. But from 1980 onwards, he was able to settle down in Dhaka city and so did we. 'We' mean my parents, my elder brother and my younger sister. I was born in 1976. My elder brother was almost 2 years older than me while my younger sister was 2.5 years younger than me. So, we were pretty much in the similar age range and grew up altogether.

I hardly remember first stage of my childhood (up to first 5 years). May be there were no events to remember or may be I am too dull to remember all those cute little things! Today, at the age of 36+, I've decided to look back to my past and try to write down how 'I grew up' as much as I can.

So, this one is just the introductory part. I was a bit confused whether to write it down in Bengali or in English. May be I am better in Bengali but my typing speed is way too slow when the language is Bengali. This is why I chose English to be the medium of language.

I would like to conclude 'episode one' here. I'm not sure when I can start the next one, but let's hope for the best. I'm also writing the whole thing without much planning. So, I'm not sure what would be the content for the next episode. I'll keep on writing whatever comes on in my mind.

I'm writing this for myself, for my readers and for the people who would be interested to know about me in future. From my early age, deep in my heart I somehow know that I will become someone someday. People will know me for all my good deeds and will remember me for good reasons. Though I am still a person who is only known by his relatives, friends and colleagues, I believe, someday surely you'll hear about me.

Thanks for your patience till now. Let's conclude this episode here. Meet you in my next episode :-
