Me ThInKs

So, hello once again dear readers and my sincere apologies for not having posted anything since I turned 29 last September. All I can say is that, I of all people never expected that wonderful day to be the beginning of so many changes in my son's life and mine. I've gotten busier with more writing projects, had a few conversations that hurt, thoughts that became life-changing decisions, lost myself, found fragments of the person I once used to be, felt that same warmth from my best friends and am back with the three people I call my family.  Sometimes I float, sometimes I walk, sometimes I run but I'm getting there. :-)

This blog was meant to be a small gift from me to my son as he grows older. I would love for him to click on each blog post and read about his childhood as seen through my eyes, my thoughts, why I said some things and the many others I never did. Someday when I'm gone, I hope he'll find me in every post. In case, he doesn't understand my blog posts, I've even left him poems and diaries written faithfully about him, but either way he doesn't have much choice. To me as a writer, my purpose of starting a blog was just to unleash a little bit of that creativity and craziness kept all bottled up inside. There were many memories I didn't want to forget, certain why's I was sure I would want an answer to later and some sweet people who I wanted to pay a tribute to in my own way. 

And so, it's with a solemn promise that Sanjana swears she will write atleast 3 blog posts every month for her darling friends and the other anonymous readers who for some reason prefer to remain that way. Writing to an audience you can't see is therapeutic for some but for me, it's a big reason as to why I'm still a writer. Besides, as every day becomes just another page in the history of my life, there are always those few moments that deserve to be better explained, better captured and better remembered. So, cheers to a second innings! (this is where our champagne glasses clink!)

(p.s- Nandita and Raji- your mails made me smile. Words cant express that wonderful feeling when you know there are friends who do want to know your opinion even though there's a good chance you won't stop once you get started :-)) )
