"Lost in the World of Texts" There is a say that Dhaka never sleeps. Dhaka, The busiest city of the Country. The hawkers of this city also lead a busy life like this city. Their life started when the sun started to shine like every day. The main hotspots of their selling are crowded places like marketplaces, bus terminals, and railway stations. And when the hawkers are newspaper sellers, they target people who are mostly passengers waiting for their transportation. Every newspaper has a journey and their daily journey starts from a newspaper seller. Then it jumps from one hand to another’s and thus newspaper ends its daily life in someone’s hand. Everyone has their own stories. But there is unwritten strict law of this city. Most people don’t feel for other’s stories. The stories of each one remain calm in their own pages. No one read the others. But there are some people who still want to know the world more by looking into the mirror of the society. In the era of the internet still, there are some people addicted to newspapers. Newspaper reading is like an addiction! No one knows the power of this addiction than the readers themselves. Whenever and wherever they are, they have to read it to know what’s going on the whole over the world. Not everyone gets touched by the lights and texts of the newspapers.

On the other hand rest of the people remains sleep in the unknown world of darkness or inside only their own world. Those who read the newspaper avoid the simple matters and stories around them rather they focus on the larger news and matters happening daily all over the world. They think of and wait for what's coming on the next day. They want to know more and care more about the country that's why they read it even when they are outside of the home. And by the time gone, this addiction becomes contagious like diseases. And in public transportation terminals and stations, people use it paralleled as a mirror of the world and as a time killer. So, until their transportation arrives for going to the work or another destination the readers try to complete a whole page, sometimes a whole paper. And then these readers become busy getting into the texts. Trains come and goes like the other days but the reading continues...
