Writing a Blog

It has been 3 years since I have published a post in my blog. I am an ambitious starter, a great planner and a visionary trying to change this world. I have been thinking of publishing something or the other post on my blog for 3 years now. Did I do it? No. The reason- I was out of ideas at first and then I was out of the ink called resolve. I was not able to do what I wanted to all these days. Now, here I am writing a post again. This needed a lot of effort. I think I need more effort to start something than completing a thing that has already started. Anyhow, I am really happy to have taken this step again and as I am completing the first paragraph in me, the visionary in me started waking up.

I have started the blog with a vision of expressing my ideas and thence improve the world. Does this sound idiotic? May be it does. But, this was the reason for my blog. Although I had an ulterior motive of gaining popularity and generating revenue from google, changing the world with my words was the primary reason for my blog. I tried doing that with my passionate article on Kashmir. The language was pretty mediocre but the feelings were real. No one followed me. Then I took up the case of Mr Gandhi and his philosophy. I have spent a lot of time reading about him, understanding his philosophy and applying it to the present day. I have done it in nearly 3000 words. This brought me no followers but instilled a bit of confidence in me.
After a year, I have become a writer intern in a website. Does this sound funny? May be it does. With my experience of two blog posts, I became a writer intern and few of my articles were even published in the website. Some of the articles those were not published in the website found a place in my blog. So, I had six blog posts in my blog. In this process, a couple of my friends started following me. I guess this gesture of theirs was more out of sympathy than empathy and belief in my writings.
Then after a small break of 4 months, I have published two more posts. One expressing my love for my under graduate college and the other expressing an unfortunate event that ended well. That was my last blog post. Reportedly I became busy or frankly I became lazy. Finally, after all these years, I have somehow gained the strength to write again. I may not have become a good writer or for that matter a better thinker but I have become older and hence a bit wiser hopefully.
So I have started with redesigning my blog page with a flashy template, a different name and a common caption. Here I am writing something about writing. Hope things will change and the visionary in me will be able to change this world…..
