Take Your Time, I Say…

Dekha jaaye to bahut kuch ho raha hai Zindagi mein,
Na dekho to, kuch bhi nahin.

 I’ve been cajoled by friends, pushed by self, to write… It’s not like I have been completely away from the written word… But I’d like to make it a habit, a visible habit… And like everytime in the past, when I’ve not written for months on end, I do have words contriving in my mind waiting to form a post, after I watch a movie, listen to a song, watch the clouds grey the day or even commute to office…

 So why am I not writing – lack of time, maybe… or work taking its toll… or general lethargy… or pre-occupation with other things in life… or quite simplyNewton’s First Law – a body continues to remain stationary or in a state of steady motion unless an external force acts upon it – at work!  (I can’t cite lack of ideas as a reason here as that would still mean a sporadic blogger, which I can’t claim to be)

Blogging, I’ve realized, is a habit… but something I can easily give up unlike the addictive ones (at least I don’t consider myself the compulsive blogger; I know some people are  addicted to blogging as well)… So when I was writing, I was writing more or less at a consistent frequency… The ideas kept coming and forming themselves into posts… But when the momentum was lost, it was a lull… And it was difficult to get back…

But yet another start I make and hope to keep going… Wish me luck!
