    Unable to understand the concept of blogging, and why people invested all that time in writing things no one really cared about, I was quite the antithesis of a blogger.

    A couple of days ago, I was trying to communicate a thought with my partner, but it was impossible to grab his attention away from the cricket match. I was having a very serious discussion about our finances, which he nodded along to. As a test, I concluded the conversation by saying "and the monkey bit the lady" and he continued to nod, in PERFECT understanding.

    It must be his mothers blessings that he's still alive!

    However, this led me to realize, that sometimes all we require, is an outlet to express our thoughts. An outlet that is unbiased and disconnected from our lives. Thats when I realized that it was time to start blogging! :)

    My thoughts have always found themselves all over the place and I'm sure they would be amusing to read and hopefully enriching, to some degree, to the lives of those who share in my journey.

    To that end, I bid adieu...

    Until later!

    I blog for similar reasons, as I explain here :

    Leave the poor man alone. World Cup comes along only once a year. Or is it every six months? :)

    Welcome to blogging Carol. What ever you said is true. We need an outlet to share our thoughts and when it is not heard from the people around you, you write in the form of blog and share it. You feel relaxed. And when we get comments on the same, it gives more happiness.

    Dear Carol,

    Good luck in your 'journey of blogging'!

    Ofcourse, when you vent out your feelings through writing, it really plays a cathartic role.

    Keep writing.

    :cheers
