Finally, after a very long break I've decided to come back to my blogging.
As a first step, I published some old, unfinished posts, thought they still remain unfinished or irrelevant. As the next step, I've drastically reduced my activities on social networking site. Special thanks for that goes to Mr. A, my best friend who made a small change to my settings and did it all too naturally. He decided to make all my FB posts visible just to himself and never told me of this. To further make it fool-proof he suddenly started liking or commenting my posts. Thus, he made me believe that no one liked to see me active on FB. It hurt me a lot initially, since like most of us, I've also been thriving on my daily dose of FB profile-acceptance. The lack of it shattered me.
Soon I lost interest in FB and also in people who accumulated all the likes and comments. I decided to be my old self again. Decided to connect with people beyond the virtual world. Aha, now I've got a bigger problem, connecting with people became difficult, as I am naturally an introvert. I was reminded of the huge efforts that I used to take to talk with people around me. I had to re-start that process.
So, here once I started putting in the effort, some long-lost friends and acquaintances seemed to re-appear. Good sign, I thought. My efforts were being answered. I realized that I had been spending too much of time ancipating what would happen to mine as well as other friends' posts day in and out. Now, am spared of all thse worries. Am getting to know what people around who are not-so-connected to the LAN cables are doing and this reminded me of blogging and documenting my other interests.
So, I vow to begin with this. Am never gonna look back. At least one post per day, till all those long-forgotten ones get finished.
