Why I blog
Tuesday, May 28, 2013 2:44:20 AM
I am often told that I have been very brave in sharing my life, its private issues and many sensitive pieces on a public platform. When I come to think of it, a smile rises to my lips. Not because I feel proud on being considered brave, but because I started this blog with full realization of this fact.
In fact, my first post, which is also the about page of my blog talks about it too. Like anyone else I too could keep the dark shades of my personality hidden, I too could never speak of the troubles in my life or even if I would, I could keep the gory details to my self. It’s easy to present only the good, the strong and the rosy aspects of one’s life.
The trouble that kind of blog would pose for me was, I wanted to start writing a daily diary. Something that would register my life as it is in real. No hiding the frustrations, no soaking up tears to pose as a strong person, no airbrushed emotions. Pain, joy, hurt, bitterness, anger, innocence, everything in their true form.
