In retrospect

As I ready myself to start blogging, several thoughts cross my mind. How will the experience be? Will it be worth giving my time and effort? Will anybody ever read my blog? Will anybody like it? These and many more... I meet a friend online and put forth this idea to her. To which she says, "What is there to think so much about it? Just go ahead and write." This statement means a lot. I firmly believe that at times, everyone needs a reassurance from their near and dear ones.
But there is one thought which refuses to leave my Gemini head. Everytime I try to get rid of it, it comes back to me. And that is of the first blog post that I had written. It was written mainly as a part of the college assignment. Aimed mainly at getting good scores. But was certainly not written keeping marks in mind. Every word of it was heartfelt and genuine. Today, when I read that entry I am amused. Amused by how many spacing errors I made. Amused by the fact that I didn't realise that it is going to stay there forever. Amused by the effort that I put into it. I do have certain memories with regards to the comments I got for my blog. Some great, some terrible and some daunting.
But the fact is that now I am one year older. And I believe much more sensible. I have taken all that in my stride and have moved on. Moved on to a new beginning. Hoping that it will be as adventurous as the previous brief stint was.
