The Prelude
Welcome 2024.Never thought of meeting you.It may be an accident or destined to happen so to say.Anyway it has ,and no escape.Not much happened in 2023 except I wasted my whole time in you tube for sure listening to crap.But one silver line was my reading Venmurasu the 24000 page Saga of Mahabharatha revisited by my favourite Tamil writer Jeyamohan who took me to the depth of minds of all characters of mahabharatha through his perceptive.One of the greatest book I have skimmed through and about 4 to 5 months, minimum 4 to 7 hours a day went off in a jiffy.
I have for all practical purposes ,never took up a pen, not read another book during the above period. This year I will write,write and write,the good the bad and the ugly. And that's a promise to myself.But what ? For the last 4 to 5 years , I have been dreaming of writing little bit of my life if it can be called so.Life for me is all about thoughts,attitudes,perspectives about how one faces the time between birth,growth,reproduction,decaying and finally death and it's never about success or failure ,not happiness or sadness.Its all about struggle and survival in the jungle of life or time whichever you call. That's what is Nature.Never forgiving,cruel,crushing madness and the luckiest one or the most cunning one survives.Here altruism,compassion,kindness,sympathy,empathy,virtues or truth has no role nor does God or Satan.Everyone by himself only matters.Absolute selfishness only can save you or help you to survive as long as possible.
I am deviating from the topic.What to write why,where, for whom should I be writing.The answer is simple,Writing for writing sake .Whether it's full of lies or absolute frankness,whether it's good writing or bad whether it's a smooth flow or an interrupted or corrupt one doesn't matter.
So I am going to write about my history of 70 years of struggles and finding by trial or error ,the means of survival.But since my memory is fading fast and concentration at its lowest it's going to be another struggle for sure. A page a day is achievable if I can overcome my procrastination and other easy diversions like WhatsApp and YouTube. But thinking about 70 years of monotonous and boring existence ,is it worth it ? But no harm can come out of it for sure and my time will also pass.So let me try.Once upon a time ------------..
