Blogging again
Do you write these days? People ask.
Why? You should write, they advice.
I have no answer. But I have these reasons in mind. One. I became a father. Two. I have no internet in my laptop. Three. Gardening.
Then, my wife suggested that I should pick up writing again.
And that got me thinking. I thought that she should be more considerate as she
knows my routine, but I felt that she pushed me. It was a good push.
My 2nd book project has been in cold storage.
When my 1st book was released in Nov 2014, I said I will write
another one, this time a proper book and not a collection of newspaper articles
and talks transcripts.
I took up a hobby which I didn’t have the space for.
Gardening. It is rewarding to the body and
mind and I don’t have any thought of stopping it.

When I look back at the days when I used to write
regularly, I was not freer then. I wrote in between tight schedules. When I was
writing for the newspaper and there was deadline, I was struggling for a topic
hours before the deadline.
Marriage and parenthood surely have a part in making me feel
and act old. So, when my accomplice in marriage and parenthood said that I
should write again, I took notice. And that is why, I am going to blog
regularly again and see where it takes me.
