Dear All
Its my first posting of 2011 after a long gap - long enough to touch the magic number of 100 days after my earlier posting which I made on 31st Dec - precisely....!! In fact I had resolved not to make any posting until today (yeah !! New Year Vow) as I really yearned for a break and to feel how I felt....!!
During the past three months, I spent a substantial amount of time browsing blogs of others, got into regular visiting of few blogs of famous Tamil Writers..... and read quite a lot in Tamil. It is a fantastic feeling to see how much of reading material are available and how little our (rather my) reading exposure is;
(Next to reading, of course there were thrilling moments of Cricket which lured away substantial time during March)
During this phase, I also realized how much junk material is available in the net and how easily our lives can be wasted if we are bit casual / direction-less about what we read.....!! There were compulsive moments when I wanted to pen some thing about the wonderful things that I read - but I decided quite consciously not to write any thing ...until...until I reach the magic number of 100 days (He he !!)
I was also amused that I had no "nature's call" about any new poem during this entire 3 months - perhaps the longest ever break after close to 4 years !! With me relaxing myself back to writing now, lemme see if I stumble upon some thing at least from now on.....
I also had utilized this time period to go through literally every posting that I made so far - and you know how much it hurts to see the spelling / grammar mistakes that I had committed and not bothered to edit / correct ??!!
I was particularly amused how I had managed to post so many words without being particular about any thing - in quite contrast to few of the blogs that I read during this phase which had so much knowledge to share with outside world;
I am unsure if any one profits out of this blog and my musings ; But I am pretty sure that I am at huge loss if I hold myself without writing any longer....AND here I go.......hoping to go on for ever.....!!
Love // Suren
I missed a lot in ur blog earlier. maybe my studies kept me too busy. and u told abt only one or 2 of ur posts in the past, so i read them sincerely and never came back to the blog until u intimated me the next time.
ReplyDeletebut i sure, do love reading them now. (u can see, i am digging into ur blog and reading all ur posts one by one, daily- preserving loooooong tamil ones for later) i prevents me from killing time mercilessly. and also, it makes me feel like writing, too (aana enna ezhudardhu nu dhaan theriyala. so u keep posting, i'll keep giving comments like this - - interesting ) :-)
