There is a writer inside each one of us... Some of us actually put pen to paper and start expressing our thoughts, while others just keep procrastinating. I have been writing short stories and poems since I was a kid, though I never actually published any of my works. My writings normally reflected my mood. On a happy day, my poems would be full of cheer and on dull days, very poignant. More often than not, they ended up bordering on the melancholy. It is actually amusing how we as teenagers are full of sorrow as things don't go right in our worlds. It could be our parents who never seemed to understand, peer pressure or silly heartbreaks and romantic notions in our fuzzy teenage heads.
I can sit back and reminisce about those days with a smile on my face and think of them as silly but ask any teenager today and he will tell you these issues are as important as the cliched world peace.
I've started many a story which never saw completion. To redress this shortcoming of mine, I've started this blog and made a resolution to myself that I would complete my posts. In today's fast paced world where we have a million things to do, it is almost impossible to find time to write unless it is a full fledged career. However, if writing is your passion, you will somehow find time to do it.
Running a bed and breakfast and a theatre academy, managing two small kids and my house and a very active social life leaves me with very little time to indulge my writing fantasies. However, blogging is any day better than writing on scraps of paper while waiting for the traffic light to turn green. There are always a million thoughts churning in my head and I need to voice them. This blog is an attempt to share my views on things that fascinate me be it travelling, reading, creative writing, romance or just some personal reflections.
