I am definitely growing old. Never in my life did I save any of my writings or even bothered to put them down on something worth saving. I mean, all those restaurant napkins, scribbled news paper pieces, chocolate wrappers would not have exactly formed a personal literary collection anyway. So the decision to write, rather ruminate in public exhibits the audacity (I would like to call it confidence if you don't object) and the "inclination to preserve" that comes with age.
Even then, I am quite certain that my postings will be rather intermittent. I write only on two occasions - 1. when I am extremely affected (both positive or negatively) by some event, situation or just thoughts and ideas, 2. when I feel the need to express and many a times i don't want to do that to any individual. Such occassions can sometimes occur very regularly and in other times, it may completely phase out for a while.
As a beginning note, let me put down few of my beliefs that I consider define with maximum precision the kind of person that I am and the nature of postings that are to come. I think BLACK is the most attractive colour because it is not intimidatingly beautiful like WHITE. I also think, Financial Markets are the closest examples of Love-Affairs. In some cases, prevention is as unnecessary as cure. Most smart guys are already married. I have never figured out the reason behind everyone's obsession with being "different". Nirvana and Einstein are the only two extraordinary phenomena of 20th century. And why the hell everything that is fun and likable considered wild and madness? But, what's wrong with wildness and insanity anyway!!.
So, at the end of it all, as the night falls, it's a wide open sky. Flight begins. A smoldering neucleus of untouched thoughts finally unfolds...

Hey!!! Its been a long time!
1. Agreer! Strong! For most smart guys are married!
2. Nothing wrong with wildness and insanity - but sometimes the cozy comfort associated with familiarity and sane order are desirable too!
3. What happened to PINK!?!?!? ;-)
Have a great time for more blogging in the future!

Actually most smart guys choose not to get married and then consequently maintain a low enough profile so they aren't noticed.
I would add Gandhi to the Einstein/Nirvana club. And maybe early Pearl Jam:)
Welcome! Happy Blogging.
