Me and I

I was preparing my computer for an OS upgrade today, so I was going through the usual making-sure-that-your-backups-are-up-to-date routine… okay so maybe that isn’t a routine.. hell I rarely ever take backups But anyway I was doing that today. And while going through the three million documents in the “Documents” folder, I came across a lot of stuff I had written some time back and forgotten about. And I thought I’d start posting some of those things here. Here’s the first of those. And please, no Haaza kuf’r on this Me and I O traveller, O company, Where do your Gods take you? To a numbered cloud, To a stature proud? Away from deception, To a utopia unfound? Do you walk with One of them, Standing by your back, Always waiting, always watching? Do you you walk with one of them, Like the air inside your chest, Like the breath that never draws? Are your footsteps divine, Like the whispers they said? Do your nights shine, With the light of the brightest day? Do they give you their dreams, When slumber may fall? Do they guard your words, Like a promise they made? O villager, O breeze, I walk alone, I walk alone! My direction wherever chance would have me, My nights wherever my sights are heavy, And my dreams are my own! I whisper my days myself, And what I draw in, I draw out. My words also bleed, Should you prick them with doubt! O villager, O breeze, I walk alone, I walk alone!

The Road So Far

235 posts, 1412 comments, 16000 visitors, 1095 days. Yeah! This is a blog-birthday post!

Today marks the end of three years of me mindlessly blogging my mind. Wait, does that make any sense? Ah whatever, this has always been the way I blogged – mindless of many consequences of my words. That should change, shouldn’t it? That’s what I have loved about this activity over the past three years – it makes me question things that I otherwise might have been okay with without reasonable justification. It has been a tool for me to ‘find myself’, if that makes any sense at all too! :) Okay, I’ll stop doing this from the next post onwards.

These have been three very important years of my life. I’ve shared many important events in my life with you in this time. My first car accident (if that’s anything to be celebrated), a dysfunctional night out with the guys, my sputtering march towards graduation, my highs and lows, my feelings about graveyards (no matter how trivial), unimaginably boring rants, my excruciatingly distasteful poetry, the risible lessons I’ve learned in life. My taste in music. My passion for everything Apple and technology in general. My life. Most of all I have bombarded all my nouns with a yawning list of adjectives!

These three years have been a phenomenal rush.

But what I value most of all about these three years is the acquaintances, the friends I made. Thanks for sticking around this far.

Happy blogbirthday! Now doesnt it feel good to see all the 3 years of hard work?
And well about thw writing part, well i guess no-one comes out all pre-planned about what they are going to post next. I struggle all the time and in the end what I am able to produce is this meaning (to tohers) pieces of wrtings which to mee seem so vague if read later.
any how…Enjoy more of it and done ditch it. Kind of keeps everything in balance.

Happy blogging!:)

@fairyDust, Hera*, Sadia: Thanks! It is a miracle that it lasted so long :P

@R.Sameem: Heheh. Yeah thanks. And did I say I’ll change my style? I was probably not thinking about what I was writing :P

@Qurat: Thanks. Hard work? No no no no, for hard work, you have to think, and I keep a strict no thinking policy around here :)
Oh, and you can see signs of struggle all over this place :D

Thanks again for the wishes!
