Greetings,
One of the first things I did (I had my driver do!) when I got here was to buy some potted plants. I gave him some money and asked him to get a few. When I came home there were six huge clay pots with green plants in them. I have had them in my apartment for some time now. Some have become crinkly, but I still like them.
I came home to find that one of my plants had blossomed. I think that is a wonderful sign of beauty amidst all the struggle that people go through here on a daily basis. Life is hard here in Dhaka, but there is beauty here too.
Love,
Karen
