The secret lives of street people in Dhaka

I have lived a very private life and usually didn't pay much attention to what is going on in others' lives unless I found something which interested me... Today, as I was walking down a very busy alleyway beside my home with hundreds of people - street vendors, rickshaw-pullers, pedestrians, going about their lives and it suddenly hit me. As I realized more of my inner world and the unconscious processes within me, I realized these people, each and every one of them also have a complex life who are dealing with their own struggles and living in this chaos. It was like my mind was suddenly opened. I found interest in what each and every one of them might be feeling or thinking while moving through life. I found out I am not alone. They are the same. Of course, I had intellectually known it, but never had such a visceral experience of this realization. It was amazing! I would like to explore more, travel more and meet more people and their secret lives. ❤️
