I want to be one of those people who write. Like, you know…get up in the morning and have things to write about! Like columns…articles…witty stuff. Sorta like putting the constant commentary going on in my head on paper. But it doesn’t happen. The fantasy of sitting in front of my comp with a big mug of tea or hot chocolate, staring out of my window as readable ideas pop into my head…remains a fantasy! Probably because I don’t like tea much or can’t have lot of hot chocolate in one go! Or maybe coz my window looks out on the street and a few blank walls? Nah…even if my window looked out on the sarson ke khet from DDLJ, I would still be at a loss for words.
And I know why. Coz I censor.
I say fun things in my head. They sound great, believe me! But I can’t have them out in the open! Not that they are ‘secrets’… but … I have an elaborate image-management thing going on since forever. And a part of this complicated program involves a lifelong commitment to the motto leave-unsaid-what-could-make-you-sound-silly! Which translates into leaving unsaid MOST stuff! That doesn't stop me from ranting on this blog. But hey, to be fair, I know how many eyeballs it attracts ;)
