Tuesday

When the shine fades away...

I find myself in so many places right now that its diffcult to tell what one's feeling. Sort of like the rainbow wheel (5th class science experiment not some fancy candy or amusement ride) that spins faster and faster till all you see is the colour white.

Just when i thought this blogging stuff is here to stay, (probably cos for the initial weeks my mind would be on constant "blog alert" always on the lookout for stuff that i could put down at the end of the day!) i find myself less inclined to do the same. The duration between my last entry and this are evidence enough! Unfortunately, my mind didnt' switch off (contrary to popular belief!) during this time so im left with some 50 odd semi blogable notions and thoughts....you know how it is, you're driving around suddenly "hey, that would make a great post" followed shortly by "but how would that....aw forget it!" Guess my ideas are constantly battling this feeling of mental saturation and laziness!

I do find some solace in the the discovery of my fellow blogsters (the ones who were getting swept up like me) slowing down their post rates.

Of the blogs that i do visit everynow and then, the more i read bout like minded and aged people having very different and somehow more fulfilled lives, the more it brings up feelings of things i couldve done and seen and been. Though i cant imagine what those would be cos at the given time, everything seemed to make sense as it does now. A case of the grass is greener and all that i suppose...

Anyways, my white life (i refer to the colour wheel again not a 30 something suburban banker / financial analyst driving his volvo!! god im such a product of cable tv stereotyping!!!) and the recognition of it makes me turn to the web once again in hopes to find some answers, some insight, some anything!!! Cheaper than therapy no?

Inertia is a terrible thing

I think that we all lose little bit interest in most things when the novelty wears off.. but if u're really liking what you do, u'll eventually get drawn back to it!

i'll have another one said...

>ruchika: absolutely! Between yesterday and today ive already checked back thrice! and have had blog thoughts buzzing around all day. Will brace myself for another stint of momentary enthusiasm! Which makes me wonder whether periodical bursts of enthusiasm are some vague form of consistency?

hmmm..just had another blog thought...hehe

Damn dude, you're quite the prolific writer. I'm surprised you've kept things up this long. My attempts at blogging etc petered out soon after I got things up and running... and then I ended up having three or four places where I blog/journal etc. Perhaps I should consolidate.
meh.
