"I win, you lose!",
Life sheepishly smiled at me!
With karma on its side, Life
had played its cards well.
Last year was filled with
craziness and reckless learning while it ended with lovely chapters of
friendship, student life, shifting paradigms and with the letter 'a' of my
laptop keypad not working! Then began this year, hinting years of
responsibility that lie ahead and of a laptop that needed repair. All
this while life raced with me, sometimes running ahead of me, and at other
times lacking the pace. I had decided to put my blinkers on, while she watched everything, wisely. When my blinkers came off this year,
Life filled me up with so much that I was overwhelmed, to say the least.
My Facebook notifications were overflowing with news of friends, near and
dear getting married, celebrating their first kid's birthday and
of expecting a second child, while there was the non-married clan
who was achieving a lot through their start-ups or
becoming sexy with their weight loss regime!
Amidst all this, here I
was trying to recollect where I had last met my social life and
what post should I upload to regain my belief in my social existence.
(If in case you're are wondering where Life was, it busy living!) I
read and re-read my old blogs and wondered if I was the same person
who had written them. Even with my blinkers I had picked up a lot of
topics which I could have written about, but I just could not barge
through the void. Life laughed relentlessly, every time I made a
futile attempt to pen down something. Silly thoughts I tell ya, make
my mind wander in as many directions as there can be!
This blog is my attempt to
do what I love to do and to feel awesome about it. For some reasons, I love
stories – stories which people share knowingly, unknowingly; stories which we
live knowing, yet unknowingly. I love the inspiration that can be found, the
relationships that can be built, the companionship that can be shared and the
storytelling that can be told. I may not be a better writer today, but I sure have interesting
stories to share.
