why BLOG ?

I am not an innate writer and what held me from christening a blog was this daunting pressure that Blogging is only for those who write well. To an extent it may hold true, but I have come to believe that the essence of a blog is one's thoughts. It primarily showcases, your potential of thinking, your ability of portraying it with supercilious vocabulory and uber-'kewl' slang is quiet secondary. So here I am, not to scribble pages of exhilarating fiction, nor to increase my "uber cool" quotient by de trop slang and not in the least to demonstrate any personal show downs.

A dear friend suggested that writing a blog is a long learning curve, I believe him and will patiently wait to see enrichment of the 'self'. So dear reader, though my blog is nothing more than a self - learning exercise, your contribution will be acknowledged. Fear of criticism did not keep me from writing a blog, it was the fear of my reader not being able to relate to what comes from the closet of my mind and being too judgemental about situations I see no two sides to. But, the moment I started believing that the purpose of writing a blog is not its readers but 'only me'... I decided to get over my inertia and actually begin somewhere.....
