It has been over two months since I put some pen on my blog, and my wife who has been my self proclaimed alarm on these tasks is now losing faith. During the earlier few weeks she politely reminded me of my task every Thursday, which I aptly noted and snoozed. Later on, by end of February she started pounding me with light abuses and mockery. We have now reached a point where I fear she will turn indifferent and stop pestering. That would be bad. Like most mallu men, I like being pestered about, and losing out on it would be like losing on my daily dose of dope.
In the nine months since I started my blog, this is third time that I proclaim my ‘Coming Back’, albeit this time the break has been longer. This break has also been different, in terms that whilst my earlier breaks were driven by laziness, this one was expended purely on exercising restraint. Visiting one’s hometown and organizing family get-togethers can be great fun. Each such visit can fill one with enough enthuse and why not, provide more than enough fodder for filling in a blog page. But like a rose, every element of joy brings along with it thorny revelations that pierce right through. I guess this is life and just have to accept that my life need not be any different.
