I have, for the longest time, recognized my inability to upkeep a blog (for long). Blogs are high maintenance, and perhaps even unnecessary when you have avenues such as facebook, twitter, msn tags even, for self-expression and to tell the world about your life. But every now and then, I miss the unadulterated multi-purpose blog space that allows for prose, poetry, music, lyrics, video embedding and pictures etc… like a plain canvas that allows for art to be presented via an array of mediums.
And so, where does my l-i-f-e take me? In a nutshell, I like my job – arbeit macht frei. My work ’sets me free’ because the stuff I dabble in are engaging, energy-sapping and pretty fast-paced. Having said that, I shall abstain from blogging about work.
And what does my work ’set me free’ from? The essence of ‘wait’, slow-moving time, fleeting existence of hopes and voids that perhaps only a special few can fill. I’ve definitely found myself in music – playing the piano, the guitar and singing along – all make my day. Jamming with my brother (or anyone else for that matter) is an activity I could indulge in forever, before the onset of blisters and a hoarse voice set in. I’ve taken to writing some songs as well!
And yes there’s been some partying and drinking over the weekends, but these ‘wild sessions’ for me come in seasons. Currently, I’m feeling non-wild and would choose a hearty meal with close friends over alcohol and dancing in a club.
Goodnight folks! Till then.
