This being my first blog, I don't want to want to write anything in particular, comment or condemn anything. I have been thinking of writing a blog of my own since a long time, but every time I made such an attempt, something slipped in and took away that opportunity from me. It was either work, tiredness, or, if nothing else, blank mind. Sometimes, one's mind denies to work, like you would do, if told to spend extra hours in office. Though, better late than never.
In my first blog, I would discuss the most important thing to me, well, myself. Alright, I agree, I have an exaggerated sense of self-importance. But that doesn't mean I am conceited, though, literally it may seem so, that's not true. I don't like as such to discuss myself too personally, so let's drop it. I prefer to discuss something more general, about likes and dislikes, hobbies etc. About my dislikes, I am not sure I dislike anything in particular. Though there are many things I like and admire. They might be qualities in certain people, some activity(no, u dirty mind :)) or some literally work, or some piece of music or art.
India being a cricketing nation, cricket has been a hobby since long. Though my paradigm of interest has shifted to soccer and tennis, after the Indian world cup debacle. (It would take a separate blog to discuss that.) I also like listening to music, perhaps so much that I prefer not to, because it mesmerises me and I fail to confine my concentration to the work at hand. So, I prefer to listen music as an independent activity, unlike most people, who enjoy music while doing almost anything.
My political views are pro-democratic. Communism to me is a felony, an attack on freedom of citizens. Its long term effects are what we witnessed in USSR(now Russia). Only a free society with free thought can progress and succeed, like the US, and developing India.
Communism, though, has its own applications. It would take a communist leadership to bring a country up from destitution, as the Government would be able to exercise greater control over masses, and its necessary, because in an underdeveloped economy, democracy might do to worsen things than improve. However, the final aim of any economy should be democracy - freedom, people's power. These are, very crudely, my political views.
And most importantly, I am very restless and impatient, so I can't scribble for long, and get bored. So I end my first blog here.
For the rest, well, I will continue blogging. About the most relevant topics to me.
So long, happy blogging.
