Understandably Courageous!

Well, here I am, at my office doing nothing - and I realize that the want of doing something, often, lands you in a territory that you never thought of exploring nor would have had explored if you had an otherwise to doing nothing.

Blogging was never me. I never understood what bloggers did nor did I ever believe that people read other people's blogs. This is quite an irony given that, I am a journalist myself. But then, I was made to believe this thanks to the constant nagging of Sarat and Shradha (my creative team), who keep insisting that people want to see photographs and no one reads long articles! So to get you interested I have a photograph to show.



Now honestly, this picture has nothing to do with my first 'so-called' blog. But then, I think I possess what the great goat lords (I am sure you read it Great Gay Lords the first time) possess too - Herd Mentality!

Anyways, coming back to where we were - aah! Blogging! It amazes me when I notice how the world of blogging has taken the world of living by storm. When I first started writing blogs, that is about 15 minutes back my time, and sometime back your time, I was in a bit of confusion as to what is to be written. My good friend, P'ervi'tosh Joshi, after introducing me to the blog world, zipped his lips when I asked him what to write about. After much persuasion, he unzipped his lips (although his hands were intially somewhere else), asked me to write what I felt like and in a flash, zipped across his lips again. Too much Zipping I say! Anyways, taking his heed, I feel and I write that Paritosh is a Jack Ass! Wow, that felt good, he really is a friend in need!

By now I am sure you must have realized that I have been trying to keep myself pre-occupied by writing shit! Worse still, it is quite interesting to know that you read my blog till this point which, also means that yes, people have the time to read blogs, which again, also proves the power of a Blog!

I therefore, as a new entrant in the field of blogging, pledge with my left hand on my heart that I will deliver quality pieces of writing on my blogs from now and for always. Although, doing something like the above for my first blog, I do think was Understandably Courageous! So much for the First Impression...
