I don't miss writing blogs anymore. To say I have a lot of written record now is an understatement. I write for myself, exclusively, stuff that I won't publish, whenever I feel like it, away from the public eye. I've a progress checker haunting me every 15 days to make sure I don't deviate from my goals. Sounds really mechanical and robotic. The only respite is since the person who keeps track of all this is myself, I decide to cut some slack. Sometimes.
But the thing with life is, you'll have to really go with the flow. Its slightly contradicting. You need to live life to the fullest, do what you love to do. Enjoy and live for the moment. On the other hand, its just one life that one knows of that has been 'gifted' by some entity. Pack as much as possible in one life and make it awesome. We live just once. There's really less time to get bogged down by trivial things, that are by themselves, a part of life itself.
Though the latter perception helps one go about crazily and do a lot of stuff, the reality of everything being real dawns down, at a point, manifesting itself as a fleeting thought or as a temporary phase of being low.
I mean, there are really times when even favourite songs or classy quotes fail to inspire. I don't know if I can talk for the general public or just a few insane people like me, or for just me. But, something, somewhere will always be ready to inspire. That'll come in the form of a novel, or Chitraji's songs, for now, for me. Well, again, its probably a perception. Things don't go as per plan. We (I'm sure I can generalise here) as humans, showing our greed in every possible facet of life would want to plan for a lot of things, and we do it to such an extent that even if we are lucky enough to lead a more than average life, we still get worked up about a silly thing. Maybe this is how life is, maybe things getting added up, its upto us to filter and decide what is really worthy of getting worked up.
All said and done, life's still beautiful, and making it remain so is entirely on us. Looking at the big picture helps, maybe sometimes, when you are probably looking at getting inspired by something. Very likely, it'll seem like something trivial. Rather, you are on the right track, if it seems so.
