Rain!

Somewhere on a mango tree

a girl with her temporary swing

laughter echoes in the air!

birds fly together

forming vague alphabets

on the soft gray sky

a white smoke rises

from the broken chimney

of a withering hut

fat drops of early rain

slide on the glossy leaves

to merge with the powdery earth

The drug

Today I read about how the world economy is taking a plunge because of falling oil prices. The news articles were full of some very important financial stuff that is not worth discussing here since I don't understand economy or finance that much and secondly, that is not what I want to write about.

What I do want to write about, is the fear I experienced while reading those articles. I got tensed about how was I going to manage my future life, how can I save more while I can and how can I cut back on my expenses. I became more and more concerned about something unexpected that may or may not occur and spoiled my wonderful Tuesday afternoon worrying about something I have no control on.

Now I don't know about you all wonderful people out there but I do this a lot. I worry about the future a lot. I worry constantly about things that might happen, and also about those that might not happen. I worry even when I know that there's nothing I can do about those things. I can give so many examples of such situations from my daily life even before you bat an eyelid. It's so common for me that I feel weird when I am not worrying about future.

There are days and times when everything is just perfect. Everything in its own place, just as I wanted it to be. Even on such days I worry about loosing that perfect day or moment. My brain has become accustomed to all this worry I guess. And it just doesn't stop. Worrying is like a drug to me. A drug that is dragging me down with it each moment and each day.

A drug I should so stay away from. 

Family is my biggest supporter!

So if any one of you got any time to really visit my facebook page you must have realized that most of my posts have been liked and commented by my family members.

Mostly my parents, my sister and my husband.

I guess they are the only followers I have.

Well I must not stop dreaming though. May be one day my posts will really be liked by people whom I don't really know. Hmm.. but I guess that will not happen if I continue to write such crappy blog posts! Although something is better than nothing. I am just in here for numbers a.k.a self appraisal. Appraisal is going on @ work too.. I don't see anything good happening there though.

Only if my family could do my appraisal in office too.. *evil laugh* :P

The reason behind this blog

So I created this blog today with the sole purpose of becoming a writer!

Its funny actually. I am not a writer by profession. But I have a dream of becoming one some day. People around me say I do have the capabilities of becoming one. Lets see how it turns out. Its a possibility that I will stop blogging after today. Another possibility is that I will not even complete this post! Yeah I am a lazy duck. Not to mention that I dream a lot but I don't actually do anything to follow those dreams.

Like most of you who may read this if I am really lucky, I am stuck in a job that I do not like but I need it to survive. I have been in that job since last six years which is a rather long time. Sometimes I feel that I am not capable of doing anything else. And then the dreamer in me kicks in and I start doing all sorts of funny stuff. Like starting this blog.

So that is enough I guess, for the introduction. I will write more in coming days. Fingers crossed. I do have a zillion things I wish to write about.

Let's see which will come first.

And by the way I did complete this post. Not bad huh! Oh! and did I mention that I am kind of into poetry too? No? Well then here it comes, if you wish to read some of my work do visit my page on
Just Scribbled @ Facebook and Allpoetry!
