I feel like I should I come back to this old forgotten blog of mine that I started in 2010. I can't believe that it has been five years since. I like to flatter myself in thinking that the version of me in 2015 is quite a different version of what I was in 2010. However, when I read my earlier posts, I still think that a part of me or at the very least that bit of me that always wants to learn and experience new things has remained the same.
One reason I never continued with the blog, other than the fact that I was highly irregular, was because I felt highly conscious about my writing abilities. It's feels highly intimidating when various people are going through what you have written and are evaluating your thoughts, your grammar and your vocabulary. In a way, it makes you feels so exposed and you hate yourself for being so cowardly. Its so much more easier to share a well-written article by someone else to gain acknowledgement about your intellectual standing than to be able to put those same thoughts in writing by yourself. I hope keeping a blog will help me get over my intimidation and help me in not just improving as a writer but also as a constantly learning intellectual with more articulate thoughts on different matters. Cheers!!
