Blessed in Dhaka

Today is Saturday,  mover comes to load the shipment from apartment, thinking how luck I am as yesterday was pouring the whole day, many roads or broken roads were under water...many dirty UFO were floating around....the trees were happily dancing in the rain...Battled in Dust most of their life.....raining season is the happier season for trees to BD ..breath deeply..

Home Bound got extra 4 rather young teens workers to help carrying the boxes, everyone of them looked like they were picked up from the streets, needed a good shower badly.. carrying those heavy boxes on their head need good balancing skill.. strength..to walk down the stairs ...watching their lean bodies under the heavy loads as i check the boxes made me feel a bit uncomfortable..  why do I have to have so many things....

Loading process is real fast .. Within 2 hours half of the shipment have gone into the container track.. rain starts  .. work stops ..break time.. Flood water starts to rise..rain continues.. Lunch break ...work starts ...no choice....

I start to clean every corners of the house with helper who is nice, n cool though not so fast .. all helpers are about the same speed in BD...plus she isn't well today .. slower her further....I have to speed up...better to ask driver to roughly sweep the floor before vacuuming ...I like my apartment owners very much ..they have made my stay easier in BD from the very beginning....although I was told that I pay good rental but things does not always work that way...
I do treasure the mutually understanding relationship with my landlord...most people curse/ complaint about their landlords whose interests are solely in raising n collecting rentals......not in responding to any problems of their own properties....and very often these properties of theirs are BDs......Bloody Dirty .....Badly Developed ......Build to Destroy.......so I am really Blessed in Dhaka....from the very beginning....

Checking one more time the throughly cleaned fridge n freezer makes me feel good.. Knowing that she will be so happy to see her clean home tomorrow makes me happy too.

Leave behind some cleaning agents, bucket, dish washing detergents, brushes, sponge cleaning towels, kitchen towels, hand towel, a mug with tea bag , sugar n creamer, 4 bottled water...for the convenient of the next tenant ....
I am please to do so....

What goes around comes around....
I believe.....I am blessed...
