“Nothing you wear is more important than your smile” - Connie Stevens
A smile is an expression of emotion. Smile is infection. It connects people transcending the barrier of language, race, region and culture. It is a simple yet most genuine, beautiful and precious gesture that can expel darkness of a room, reignite hope in a troubled soul and dissolve divisions.

Monsoon was Tagore’s favourite season. However, many Bengalis hate monsoon. Potholes, muddy water, water-logged roads and water-borne diseases make the hell of common people, especially the daily commuters and those living from hand to mouth. Things are different in rural areas. These places don a new look in rainy season. Hence, those willing to enjoy the real feel of monsoon should visit Indian villages.

It is the first line of a famous Bengali song penned by great poet-philosopher Rabindranath Tagore. On the first day of Bengali New Year (Subho Nabobarsho), this song is played on TV, radio and even at any local jalsa. The first season in the six-season cycle of Bengali Calendar Year is summer (grishmo). Like every season, summer has its own colours and characters. Summer comes with new fairs and fragrances.

These lines are excerpts from famous American poet Stanley Kunitz’s poem titled “The Layers”. I read the poem in my early twenty and felt quite intrigued by the poet’s philosophical thoughts about aging and loss. After the youthful years passed away and I turned a new leaf of my life, which I love to call “infancy of maturity”, I was finally able to absorb the poet’s thoughts and perspectives of life and its layers.
