This and That
I miss blogging. So much that I think I am beginning to make a conscious effort to get back to writing. I miss those friends I made here. I miss the comfort of writing. I miss the joy in the realisation that I have been read.
I don't know how many times and with how many friends I have debated the purpose and pointlessness in blogging. I think we blog for the same reason that we get into relationships, or get married--because we simply want to share some tiny part of our lives with others. Not because our life has been great or consequential to the world and the grand scheme of things, but because our life has been lived. We want someone to be our witness, someone to acknowledge that we existed, that we lived. And when we cease to be, we want our life to be validated in that memory of us that is stored in the other's mind.
Perhaps, it is that validation that I miss.

Beautifully put. Blogging as proof that we lived and loved...
@ Prude,

@ Id,
Thanks!
isn't that the point for everything that we do. self-validation or otherwise.
@ anon,
perhaps. except maybe leaving anonymous comments.
Rightly Said....
We all are witness or being witnessed

what's this got to do with the pic? anyway, keep writing. if not 2 notice or b noticed, it pushes out the waste of mind and begins fresh.

@sravan
nothing. except that photos are just as much an exercise in self validation as anything else
