Here I am tonight, at my PC and working on making this blog as interesting as I can...I have been a major fan of "writing your thoughts down"...I started maintaining hand-written journals since my 11th grade. Why not till then? Well, I did not know what journals meant until then...or I did not see the need to write things down. Why so? Because, until my 11th grade, life was pretty simple. My mom and dad took care of everything - all that I worried about was doing a 1000 page punishment for not working out my math homework...No other worries, no overloads! Ever since I got into higher secondary, the peer pressure factor and social obligations started piling...I had to download the zillion thoughts I carried back from various sources at home...that was how I started to write. And for the past 3-4 yrs, I have closed all my journals and don't even think about it, except on days like today. What did change? From being a bit busy worrying about my college days and what career I would land in, I got married, moved to a different country, landed in a career-fulfilling job, bought a home...the list gets to be verrrrrrry huge. I stil believe that writing down a journal clears my mind. I have got on to a lazy start, but I hope to be regular. If not for hope, where will humans be???
