My first blog post !! It reminds me of the essays we used to write in school. It was easier as we would just mug up a few good Tagore's lines , a few good & difficult-to-pronounce Bengali words and one sample essay per topic . But this has to be Hundred-percent-original !! Hmm, fairly hard task it is !!
You must be thinking ,who has begged you to blog ? Google ? ;) ... Well, I am doing this for myself ..No expectation of earning dollars or being a famous blogger ( I can't even imagine in my rarest dream) .
This is why I decided to write.
Today was Friday . Unlike other Fridays (Usually I feel very energetic on Fridays about doing office work so that no work or tension is left for the weekend , the latter rarely happens though ), I was not in a mood to work. A few replies to utterly irritating & boring work emails was enough stress to brain already.
I wanted to feel happy as it is my birthday and a little more special because I am turning Thirty :) So I started my usual Pinterest browsing ,watching soaps online & logging & checking my Facebook account every five minutes to see who has wished me so far .. (Narcissist me!! ) !!
Facebook then reminded me of this great blog I found the other day. Reading her's was a delight !! I used to be a voracious reader in past but unfortunately I lost that habit in last few years . Reading more than ten pages of a book (however interesting it might be) was difficult for me . But today was different. Rather ,her blog was. She defined happiness , in such lucid words !! Happiness --- what I have been craving for !! what I have been trying to find in my almost perfect but apparently sad life !! This was it..
I read each of her posts, laughed with her,cried with her !!! I realized, happiness is all around me ,like plenty of sad thoughts I have. I just need to pick them up & feel good !!
So I decided to do something everyday(however trivial it is ) that makes me feel good !! & I decided to start writing !! writing about all little good things that happen around me, everyday!! I might not be good at it but I am sure I will never fall short of emotions to express !!
Happy Birthday & Happy blogging to me !! :) CHEERS !!
P.S. I did not find any good heading for it . So it ended up being a "to do " for an (in)definitely long period (like my code snippets at work ;)).
and P.S.2. : The UI looks ugly & I do not have enough designer expertise to pretty it up. But I will keep trying..
PS3 I want to pa myself on the back for the blog address . Initially I wanted it to be lifebeginsatthirty@blogspot.com but that was taken. (so one pat on his/her back too) ..This one is wayyyyy cooler !! isn't it?
PS4. I am tired of correcting all the typos. Please ignore if you found one . It was unintentional ( read :I got pretty good score in grammars & spelling)
