Blogging or Copying?????

Its been long since I posted ma last blog.I don’t know,I mean I’ve tried so many times but once u loose the feel of the subject then u just can’t get it back.Believe me its damn tough trying to get ideas,emotions & other things for the same subject again.Lets say u’ve a subject in mind or sumthing very personal & u r all geared up for writing a v. intense blog but voila! Ur mother told u 2 listen to her about a v. serious issue.Despite ur various excuses(lame for her) u’ve to listen 2 her & afterdat u find ur mind blank.No matter u try hard but the result’ll gonna be ‘sifar’.For me blogging is like unwinding after a trying & tiring time,most of the time am emotionally tired & so much so dat ma mind feel like bursting off.& dats wat I try 2 do here just let ma mind flow freely like a stream of river who doesn’t seem to’ve any inhibition in making her own path.Its a medium dat signifies ur individuality & allow it to grow up.Unlike other mediums it’s devoid of competition coz here u r revealing ur true self & sumtimes analyzing it too.U tll ur bitter\sweet experience to no one but to urself.So dat in course of time if u wanna look back at things these small hints can come handy.Actually it gives u sumthing dat a painting gives a painter,a novel gives a writer,a new tune gives its composer—PEACE OF MIND.U’ll laugh but its true after u’ve blurted out everything in the form of words wat remains with u is silence,an unspoken silence which is ready to take the world’s harshness.The first comment I got was dat am too abrupt.I tried 2 find the reason which’s like this:When I write ideas flow like water & it becomes difficult for me to judge & write also I hate 2 explain things,I think dat the reader’ll get bored easily coz I do.Waise bhi am writing for ma sake & if I can understand well then wat 2 do with the pace?Anyways thankz & in future I’ll try to expand things like a rubber band i.e. coming back to my usual self again after 1 or 2 posts.I don't know y but I've this strange habit of mixing my own experience with the piece

 Blog started in 1998,I guess yeah!So  basically blog means having ur own space, writing whatever u feel like be it ur ideas.emotions,trips,opinion I mean its all about urself.U write ur feelings without the fear of getting judged or being slotted as right or wrong. BLOG-I knew this term b4 but never tried it out till I got a computer at home. I’ve always written about my feelings especially when am sad or lonely. Remember the song –Am Mr. Lonely I’ve no buddies-----!

 

Yeah! Dats wat am.I simply luv this medium of letting urself be the way u r without any fear.Its like having a holiday in Bahamas after a tiring stint in office.I remember reading a blog where a father wrote of his happiness of being a father.I’s so touched by dat blog dat it really made ma eyes wet.I mean with so simple words he described his state of mind right from being ecstatic to being a truly emotional father.

I think after photographs & videos this is the strongest medium of reviving ur memories.But 2days bloggers’ve lost the soft & personal touch to their writings.The only thing they want are comments & charming others by their ‘recently got updated’ knowledge.& most of them copy\paste their writings which is weird,I mean if u really want to share sumthing worldwide then build ur own website or should I say news site. There r things which u wanna share with others.Alright then TYPE THEM.And mention the name of the author or person who wrote the original piece & believe me ur pride won’t be hurt nor ur fingers, infact u’ll imbibe sumthing in urself of those things.I’ve seen so many posts till now & many of them which were long & dealt with different issues at 1 go,seemed to me nothing more dan the wonder of CONTROL ‘C’.Its a pity dat people can’t originate ideas & always tend to behave like copycats. I’ve no grudges against the bloggers infact I respect bloggers who write on their own & read their their blogs regularly. Its ur mind, please use it coz only by this u can get satisfaction else only fake praises’ll come in ur way. This matter’s disturbing me from very long & I knew I’d to take this up. Its my humble request to all u bloggers around to be original & even if u want to mention or quote sumthing then please don’t refute the copyright act.
