Okay, so I have been mulling over this for over three years now and have heard atleast ten people talk about this and ask, "Why dont you start writing a blog?" Frankly, I myself dont really have a very clear answer to this.
To start with, I guess I am not very sure what I want to write about. What is it that is so close to my heart? Or, what is it that I want to share my expert opinions about? Though, I must confess that I have always imagined that one day I would write this fantastic blog and get thousands of followers saying "Wow! what a blog!" But, hey, come on! lets face it, I am just a very normal person leading a very normal life, with no extraordinary happenings that would pop out of the page and catch the eye of the readers. So, what is it that I can write about?
Then, also, I am scared of being judged. Ofcourse! I mean this is a no brainer. I feel insecure sharing this little piece with anyone. I know I will be judged by whoever reads this. I mean that is what I have always done when any of my friends or acquaintances has forwarded their blog links to me. I have felt that it was my moral duty to do so. So, I guess I already know what to expect when I publish mine. You see as long as you are quiet, people may still mistake you to be a bright spot but once you have finally presented your opinions, I am afraid, then it is all out in the open ;).
But, then one of these days, I said to myself, if I dont do it now, I will probably never do it. Slowly, I will lose the enthusiasm, the energy, the interest and probably my eyesight too. Really, no one knows what the future has in store for each one of us. And, there is always a higher probability that starting earlier will give me a longer chance to improve my blog writing skills. So, I say to myself, okay, lets do it today. Let my fingers flow over the keyboard, write what comes to me naturally, any topic, anything. Let me just make a start. Let me get this thought converted into action and see what it feels like.
And, so here it is! And, yes, I am feeling good for finally making a start :)
