Out Of Chaos-Introduction
Last night one of my friends had come. We watched a movie
for sometime and thought of going for a stroll. That's why he had come for
actually. Anyway, so after the stroll when we reached his bike, which was
parked on the lane in-front my building, he said, 'Are you still blogging?'
'No,' I said.
'Why?' he asked.
'This job messed up with everything.' My explanation was not
plausible for him, I sensed that.
'Internet is the future, bro. Do it. Resume it. You know the
basics, start again. It's not late at all,' he seemed insistent.
'You're right actually. I've been thinking of resuming
blogging since Jan. But, never really acted upon it,' I said in a self contemplating
mode.
'INTERNET IS THE FUTURE, BRO. Many out there are doing it.
Most fake it. Rare are true. I know you. You know what authenticity is. You're
authentic. I suggest you do it,' he sounded very positive and enthusiastic.
'I'll,' I assured him.
After I woke up today I ruminated over it in the toilet,
squatting on the commode. I remembered why I started blogging in the first
place. I had started blogging to write about what bothers me and, excites me,
to share stories, to share insights from my experiences, to know myself, to write in the
first place and, express myself. Back then my visions were blurry. But, I knew
what I wanted to do. Now, my visions have got some clarity and, I want to do it
again. After reminding myself about it I recalled the excuse I had produced to
my friend last night for stopping blogging: 'This job messed up with
everything.'
The job! Oh, god, I've been blaming this job for everything
in my life from past three years. For not having a normal (regular!) educational career and, I can't
even recall the many other reasons I've berated it for at the moment. The job
hasn't really stopped me from doing anything. I am still perusing my bachelor's
from a distance University, I still go and hangout with my friends. Actually,
I'm doing everything like my friends. In fact, with independence.
But, I'm not talking about my job in this piece. This is an
introductory post. So, I should and must talk about this blog.
This blog is my personal space I want to share with
you. A diary. An open diary actually. All my posts will be a journal entry. Sort
of. All the entries will possibly in a narrative form. Recollection of some
past memories and insights pulled out of it. It'll also have stories, poems.
Some solo. Some collaboration. As I am a reader, I think, I should review
books. So, yes, a dedicated section will be there for book and other reviews.
Most of all, it is a lifestyle blog. Let's put it that way.
If you're asking why you should follow my blog, I don't know
the answer to that question as yet. But, I know there are many out there who
have the same experiences as I have, which are unread and unheard of. I just
want to speak the unspoken.
I sign out now. I am already overwhelmed. Thank you for
reading me.
