| Introduction | I've been told that I do an awfully good impression of myself. I never thought i'd actually ever start a blog. The need to define and express myself was never really felt before. But now, after starting a soul crushing job, and one that brings the harsher realities of the world I live in closer than comfort, I feel that I must try to reach out, not just to explain, but to understand myself. I live in a country where people co-exist in the stone age alongwith those who think they are living in modern times, often under the same roof. I've been brought up in a society which needs excuses to create divisions within itself. If it is not based on religion, caste, colour, creed, ethnicity, and most important of all, wealth is key in dividing people. More often than not, these divisions are marked out in blood. Make what you will out of this blog. After all, I'm just one of the voices amongst this maddening cacophony. What you choose to hear, is up to you. |
