Introducing My Patreon Page

“Ponkti” (পঙক্তি) is not my last name, it is actually my nickname. I just kept it as my last for various personal reasons and one of them is to show that I am a Bengali for those who can recognize.
Just like any proud Bengali parents, my dad nicknamed me Ponkti when I was born, which simply means “lines or quotes of poems”. Bengali people are into literature and poetry. Most of them love giving their children some poetic fancy names.
Fast forward, all these years I became quite the opposite of a poet-an an electrical and electronics engineer. Even in my leisure, I live and breathe everything related to technology and startups, and frequently love to talk about Jungian Cognitive Functions.
I am active on QuoraMedium, and my own personal WordPress blog.
My personal blog is where I write casually about whatever I want without any strings attached. I have been blogging since 2014. I have also been picked as Quora’s one of the top writers in 2018 (for God knows why), and even in real life, I have always been praised for my thoughts, writing, and speech.
Engineers (can and) do write well as well. I do my little part to break that stereotype each day.
I have decided to add a Patreon page for exclusively curated content for my paying viewers.
On a weekly basis, I plan to provide poetic words, short stories, personal opinions, video clips, and even more which might help you uplift yourself a little bit, or push you to think differently about a topic.
I encourage you to be my Patreon and even ask me for types of writings/content you wish to see here.
I can also become audacious once in a while to share some Bengali posts with my Bengali followers. I write on Bengali Quora too but note that my English is better than my Bengali.
I am very busy in real life, but I will try my level best to keep your Patreon experience with me as special as possible.
Thanks a lot for reading.

The Thought Of The Night-“Out of Sight, Out Of Mind”

10/31/2020

10:55 PM (EST)

How was your Halloween this year?

I didn’t have any party.

Well, before I go to bed, I am thinking about writing some thoughts down.

I once saw this quote from a character in a Bollywood movie which is something like this, “We eventually forget each other thinking that she (or he) doesn’t remember (or think of) me then why should I.” I forgot which movie it was or the actor playing the character. If anyone remembers please let me know in the comment below. Also, correct my translation if needed. I just took the gist of it.

Anyway, that line stuck with me and it reminded me of the problem with long-distance relationships and the effect of the lack of intimacy. From my experience and what I have observed from other people’s lives is that long-distance relationships usually don’t work.

It is a sad reality. Especially in this time of global pandemic when we are stuck at home away from our loved ones- this is a serious issue.

“Out of sight, in fact, does become out of mind.”

I hope we gather the patience that we need to deal with this tough time and keep staying in touch with the people we love until we meet them hopefully soon.

That’s it for tonight.
