Aim in Life!!

I'm thinking about writing a personal mission statement to declare my aim in life. Till now, my ideas are:

Personal Mission:
  1. To acquire knowledge and wisdom about myself and surroundings.
  2. To look after my health and my family's well being.
  3. Use knowledge and wisdom to gather wealth which can be used for immediate family members and people who are suffering.
  4. Maintain technological skills up to date for career advancement.
  5. Gain social skills to keep good relationships with people.
  6. Fight against evil and work to establish social justice to make the world a better place.

The meaning of Kalpurush

Well......here I'm am...writing a blog.....for the first time in my life! Better late than ever..........Hilarious, isn't it?

I'll start with the concept behind my nickname for this blog space 'Kalpurush'. What's this 'Kalpurush' means?

Kalpurush is a Bangla (Bengali) word means 'Orion' or 'The Hunter'. I believe everyone knows where to find Orion in the sky......if not.........interested to know.......here's the link:

I personally like the other meaning (The Hunter of Greek mythology) of Orion. Curious? See at wikipedia:

For those, who can read and understand Bangla (there is a difference between just reading and understanding something, isn't it? This may be a good topic for my next post...ha ha ha), here is the link at Bangla wiki:
http://bn.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%A6%95%E0%A6%BE%E0%A6%B2%E0%A6%AA%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%B0%E0%A7%81%E0%A6%B7

Actually, if you understand Bangla, you'll find that 'Kal' (means time) and 'Purush' (means Man) creates another meaning of 'Kalpurush'. You can call it 'Time lord' or 'Ancient man' depending upon your understanding..........Debate? You are welcome!

Whatever meaning you take/like, one thing is clear............'Kalpurush' is an ancient term. Sounds philosophical? Well, here I am and it's nice to meet you!
