I keep asking my friends, colleagues, acquaintances, relatives, in fact every one I see every day to read my blogg. Some of them read, some swear, some even call back and say ‘hey, it was cool’!
But, there are a few who really interests me. They are the ones who start with “how do you write such superficial stuffs, for God’s sake!” I aggressively counter them – ‘what do mean by superficial? They are what I think, feel or experience. That’s all!’ “Sure, but if you are filling up this universe with junk, don’t you think you have some moral responsibilities towards it at least!” they counter argue. They leave me with their piece of advice as well “pls write something substantial”
Hmmn… universe, junk, substantial…my goodness, I never knew I had so much power!
What do you think guys? Should I or should I not?

All bloggers write, for others to read, but simply to document their thoughts.
How would it feel if a friend comes up to you and says that he has a letter that you wrote to him in class V ?? Wouldnt you give an arm and a leg to have a look at that?
Thats the beauty of blogging. We get a chance to document our thoughts and then reflect upon it some time later.
A blog is not that different for a diary .. just that it is more accessible to people around you .. come to think of it, if people had stolen a peek at your diary maybe you would have been hopping mad! But when its a blog, you probably actually mind if people dont read it.
I have been reading your blog on and off ever since you pointed it out that day - I find it quite captivating, thank you.
The language has so much clarity .. and precision .. it reminds me of a clear and tranquil stream...the thoughts are so well organised ...its a pleasure to read it.
The issues are what concerns you at the moment or over a time or something that catches your fancy or just plain remembrance of days past .. whatever .. what else do you expect in what is essentially a diary? A secret formula to immortality ?!!
Its not junk, I assure you :-)
