Yeah... blog is suffering because of twitter.. but that's only an interlude..

Trying to build a network base of international authors at https://twitter.com/#!/AnandoBhakto

It might just help me with the novel..
not ideas, but marketing and other stuff!

XXX

Did I tell you I'm again friends with this guy... whom I unfriended on FB recently... he had to give up.. and he actually nudged to all my three demands..

XXX

One, he admitted he was to blame alone for whatever had happened.. two, he offered unconditional apologies.. and three, he sent fresh FB request, without any assurance of favourable response from my side!

XXX

So, that's good.. there's marked improvement in his behaviour too.. I know most of you would find this childish for my age and profession..

But then I have only handful of friends (by will), and for me a friend is neither a hang-out partner, nor gupshup pal, nor a handsome face for group photo-ups!

XXX

The meaning goes much deeper... and hence any thought of separation is harrowing rather than just regretful..

And then I told you I'd rather grow the child in me, than try being restrained... The more uninhibited that child is, the more generously ideas flow in for my stories!

But, blogging will continue to remain my primary obsession!

Why is nothing materialising? The lawyer thing, the office works, the planned "meeting up" between 'him' and family friends.. the negotiations that would follow??

XXX

Even this friend.. It's not a falling out, as he himself contended that my unfriending him is insignificant.. "We're not FB buddies, are we?" he said..

But then, it's not like those earlier times either..

XXX

Why is life wayward?

XXX

For the first time it seems either I don't have any plans..
or my plans are just insufficient..

And for somebody who has thrived on plans.. effected them against adversities.. and found a way out of these adversities through these plans, it's chaos if they do not work!

Something ended!

Bed ridden for the last two days, so no updates... Today is better, but no energy to type.. A heat stroke, followed by fever and intense shivering!

Forty five years of Spellbinding Grace..

Happy B'de, Madhuri Dixit!

Twenty Months!

Twenty long months...

Very long...
and silent...
and unhappy..

Is it now too long enough,
to call it 'past'?

XXX

Is only physical presence, the present?

Is everything, including your feelings,
determined only by sight and sound and touch?

How would you call them lasting then... since sight and sound and touch, all perish... when one day the body perish..
