more than i bargained for...

     Not so while ago I used to think I had no business blogging. I'd scribble paragraph or two and misplace it eventually. Some were disposable but I hope I had compiled some of 'em. There were some who would suggest me to start a blog of my own but I never took it seriously. Firstly, I thought I wasn't good enough (and I still have long way to go) and also that I didn't (I still don't) have specific topic to blog about. I would see these amazing blogger's who would share things on the topic which they are clearly passionate 'bout. Topic ranging from culinary skills to wine, tech-savvy stuffs to engineering, photography to social issues, fashion to porn, and there I was writing some mumbo-jumbo stuffs in complete randomness. Long story short, this Jan I was reading this blog and it had some information about swine flu. Interesting but the facts were all distorted, it triggered angry bone inside me (am a medical student). In all seriousness, how could anybody write something about the ongoing pandemic thingy and get creative with it in all the wrong ways possible. I couldn't comment without creating a blog of my own, which I did without thinking. So I literally jumped into blogging thing with an impulse.

     The good thing is, I discovered I loved it. I just wanted to write. I write not because I want to, but because I have to. It’s the one way I can truly give voice to my thoughts, for better or worse. When I started blogging (end of January this year) I honestly don’t think I gave a shit whether I had 2 readers or 200 or 2000. I just wanted to write. The fact that you guys have stuck around is truly humbling and encouraging. In case I forget later, thanks. However, I never commented on the swine flu post (LOL). I didn't want to lose my breath arguing. Its already three months now and am happy that I have a place where I can platform all my random stuffs for me to save and for somebody to read. In short span I got all these good responses. Mails with suggestions, one particularly interesting hate-mail which in some weird ways made me feel good, appreciative comments and thousands of readers. I started the blog thinking who would care so, literally I got more than bargained for. I don't go around checking my blog statistics but it does feel good to know there are people who are taking time form their seemingly busy day to read the blog, mine in particular. I love each one of you;)
