For me, writing has been a great medium of expression. I discovered this not more than six months ago when out of the blue, a friend suggested that me and my group of friends should start writing a blog and do it occasionally. That thought which she implanted into my head gripped it very hard and since then, there is no turning back. The reason why the idea enticed me was because this could be a secret private space of interaction amongst our small gang (which btw still is; only the 4 of us!) which would give everyone of us an opportunity to peep into one another's heads and experience each other's thoughts, ideas, dreams and imaginations; basically explore our worlds more and more.
Occasionally, I try to persuade my friends to write or post on our blog and haven't given up on them. I have found out that, at least for me, writing has been liberating! It allows me express things which I cannot comfortably talk or explain. It helps me express my deepest feelings, my fears, my insecurities, my likes and dislikes, my feelings and emotions in a very lucid way to others which as per my opinion would look hazy and unclear had I resorted to speech to convey my ideas and thoughts. When I write, I can think, I can make words bend in the required way so that the person I am trying to connect with can clearly get the message I am trying to deliver; unlike speech where you get a fixed time to make your point and into which people are continuously, dynamically making additions which make you loose track of what it is that you were thinking of and every single point remains either incomplete or does not get the justified emphasis which it would otherwise get if I had written it down. This is why I find writing alluring and enchanting. And dear friend, I am still waiting for you to start writing on our blog. This idea/ thought could not have been possible had you not brought it to my notice and for that, I am grateful to you. You will always have a special place in my heart and on this blog! :)
