Yet another attempt at blogging

My tryst with blogging has been an old one. I never had the time to maintain one. Busy with what? I just don’t seem to remember. Guess that is the funny thing about life. We always seem to be busy but very few things that we do are really worthwhile. In hindsight everybody is wiser. Or are we? I still keep whiling away my time under the context of being busy. How often have I postponed an activity just because I didn’t feel like doing it? Often I end up in my bed at night with the guilt of wasting yet another day pinching my insides and swearing that tomorrow is going to be a fresh start. “Make a timetable”, my mom tells me often. Apart from helping you organize your time it is a reminiscence of that feeling of guilt which acts as a stimulant to perform your tasks which are usually not very arduous. In more cases than not, we end up enjoying it.

What is the purpose behind this rant of mine? It is an appeal to all my fellow beings (especially the really jobless ones waiting for your call from TCS and various other companies) to shed the indolent lifestyle and pick up an avocation, maybe more, in addition to your daily chores. How often have we heard the cliché that life is too short. Guess what? It’s freakin’ true. I have taken up blogging again and am going to try to sustain it this time around. But I am not going to stop with blogging. This is just the start.

Let me know if you have taken up an avocation or if you plan to.
