A Beginning.....

Blogging.....a term almost everyone is familiar with and a process most people are involved in these days..........

Blogging, or should I say, a Blog has been defined by Wikipedia as follows -

A blog (a contraction of the term "web log") is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.

As an individual, I am a regular follower of the blogs written by others, be it my friends, famous personalities or anyone else.....I also make sure that I voice my approbation for the work whenever I happen to like one........but at all times that I would be involved in reading or applauding the works of another, a thought that always crossed my mind was - when would I come up with one of my own.......? The reason behind not having done that for so long........hmmm, let me see.....the possibilities - i) Wasn’t very confident about my writing skills, ii) Lack of Time, iii) Lack of the will to do so, call it laziness if you wish to..........well the first reason doesn’t sound very convincing, for the simple reason that at one point of time, to be specific, during my days at NIT, I was actually into a lot of writing, and more often than not I had also managed to grab the attention of people as well as a considerable amount of admiration for my work........now moving on to the second, lack of time - well if I was to agree to this reason, I would be cheating myself for I am totally aware of the colossal amount of free time that was available to me, atleast in this last one year, and shamefully enough a huge chunk of that was spent sitting in front of the “Idiot Box”...so, reason no.2 ruled out without an ounce of doubt................so that leaves us with, reason no. 3 - Laziness....i.e., a disinclination to activity or exertion despite having the ability to do so - courtesy, Wikipedia. Although I hate to admit it, but I am one belonging to the class of people termed as “The Lazy Lot”......at times I feel life could have been a lot more different than what it is, had I not been the lazy chap that I have been on many occasions in life.

But, as they say, “Better Late Than Never”.......so here I go, my first attempt at “BLOGGING” begins right here........
