Happy Victory Day: December 16th.

Pomp and ceremony will come and go and there’s yet plenty of time to crow about vainglorious victory; but before the day passes irretrievably I’d like to wish my fellow native Bangladeshis a happy  Victory Day.

May all our days, yours and mine, be driven toward a better future, with more than a passing glance at all our yesterdays.
