The Need To Write

I write because I just feel the need to write.



I don't need to have a specific reason to write. I'm not paid to write... though it would certainly be good to be paid to do the things you like to do.

Utmost importantly, I don't feel pressured to write. It all just came to me, out of the blue. It's like water flowing from the river, it's like the air that we breathe, it's like riding a bicycle or driving the car, cruising to somewhere...

To write something, especially when the moment is right, is like expressing your inner thoughts and sharing them with public, people whom you may or may not know...

Putting pen on paper, elucidating your two cents worth on a scripted canvas, sometimes with a proper narrative, sometimes without, is at times not an easy thing to do. But I thank God for granting me this gift to be able to play with words, unleashing them whenever necessary and sharing them with people...

I'm glad I am able to enjoy and utilize this gift.

I may not be that good, but at least I know where I stand...

Back In The Business... of Writing

When was the last time I wrote something on this blog? Geez, god knows... Eons ago perhaps...

But the long hiatus I took away from writing was mostly attributed to occupational hindrances rather than intentional self-deprecation.

During the long absence, I took time to reflect on my personal cornucopias, the many ups and downs, the myriads of fascinating turbulence and thresholds I came across during my short, sheltered life. Worthy of every penny... It refreshes my personal predilections in life.

So, here I am... writing again on this crazy, no audience Blog. A very self-absorbing piece of literary armamentarium that was launched solely for the purpose of leaving behind a simple legacy...

Thus, allow me to submerge and sink in beneath the splendors and the squalors of my often blusterous and tempestuous expressions and lamentations...
