Back with the summer time


Today when Finland and also Europe gets their summer time, I find it most suitable time to come out of my blog hibernation. It would become a cliché to mention why I wasn’t blogging, so I would spare that.

Infact it is not even easy to write this post due to my overwhelming guilt of not blogging for so long. But today when I return to blogging after the brief hiatus, my resolve to continue blogging is stronger than ever before. When you are bereft of something then only you realise its importance. My blog was my source for catharsis and today I need to purge my past three months than ever before.

Infact when I look back at three months it is like traversing my last three years only in fast forward or may I say too fast forward. What does this tells about me? Did I revere my past too much to repeat it or I was too much in my comfort zone to be oblivious of the ruthless realities or I was plain complacent? These questions won’t change anything.

Life is busy, and with every passing day it is going to be busier. This can’t be any excuse for not having sometime everyday to reflect upon what we are doing, or what we should do? If I can’t have two hours for myself everyday then I am sure my hours won’t be good for anything else. Need for those two hours is indestructible, if not apportioned today, they would keep accumulating and become two months later. My logic might seem specious because I can’t explain much now. But this is my catharsis.

In other details, I am still in Finland. The assignment kept on getting extended, a familiar story with assignments, but I would be saying 'bye' to Finland very soon. And I am sure it would be 'adieu' this time, again.

In two months I would be at the third anniversary of my blog and I am sure I would reach that milestone with more vigour, more enthusiasm and of course with more posts.

Also,I am unbelievably gratified to all of you who kept visiting my page and leaving comments for me. I missed all of this, I am dashing to your blogs very soon.
