The First Post

Blogs or Weblogs have become “cool” these days. I don’t know of anyone who doesn’t have or dream of having one. But, it’s surprising how the Blog fever has spread faster than any viral disease on this planet. And everyone has their own reason for having one. Some plan to show off that even they can ‘write’ while some want to make the readers cry by telling them the dilemmas they’ve been facing in their lives. Whatever the aim is, it all comes down to one common point. Making others read and appreciate. This is exactly what I wouldn’t do with my blog. I neither have the desire nor the inclination to get applauses for taking my time out and writing. Well… then there has to be a reason for everything. (Somewhat similar to what the theory of determinism says). And what is the reason behind me wasting the time to write all this crap?

You see, Change is inevitable. It happens with everyone. The older you grow, the more mature you become. But what is missing in people these days are the reminiscences of their past. Until and unless you recall what you were at a certain point of time or before a life changing event occurred, you will not stay on the ground. While it’s okay to fly high in your own territory, this particular phenomena causes people to intrude over others’. There has to be something which slaps you on the back of your head and reminds you of what you were before whatever made you what you are right now.

But the thought that I might just lose track of the past and fly over and above the cruising altitude scares the shit out of me. And that is the very reason I have this blog. To keep track of what I’ve been. Maybe, I might laugh at myself when I read this after 10 years. I’m sure I will. At least, I hope to. Well, that’s the point. I would’ve been changed by then. But, this blog would be a way to recall what I was. As I said earlier, Change is bound to happen. And the worst part is that you won’t realize it. Only the people who are around you are the ones who’ll tell you whether you’ve changed or not. But, what better than knowing the change you’ve gone through by yourselves. Spending a few minutes everyday to write a post won’t hurt. When I read these posts after a few months or years, that is when I’ll notice the change. And as I said, if your ego is taking you to places, your ailerons will be levelled with these recollections. And this will make sure that the flow of coolant in your body is steady.

Hoping that this blog serves me for what it has been made.
