After a hectic day of looking at emails and cooking at home, I stumbled upon my old blog and realized that I am looking at it after 6 years and the last time I wrote a blog was May 2010.
Life has changed a lot in these 6 years, a lot of good things, bad things, realizations, hurt and what not, it has been a full package. But what made me to stop blogging or rather what made me to start writing again is what is going on in my mind. I think i started to write when i wanted to reinvent myself as a person and i believe right now i am trying to do the same thing. I also realized that this is one place where I can write what is in my mind and not worry about anything because it is not well followed ;).
I have been trying to get a good metaphor to summarize these 6 years and I am still struggling to find one. Interesting conversation that I saw somewhere quite summarizes everything:
Friend A: This is the last conversations that I want to have with you because you misused the freedom that I gave to you
Friend B: Sorry, Am I hearing it right, I misused the freedom. All I did was to try to reach out to you and I did what we used to do earlier
Friend A: Don't your understand, you are not giving me any space. You are, all over me
Friend B: (Confused on what needs to be said) So what do you want me to do.
Friend A: I want things like earlier, like old times.
Friend B: (Realization dawns, eureka, it means days when we were not friends) God bless you
This conversation which I heard made me realize, Never change yourself for anyone, because, at the end of the day they are not going to be with you when you loose yourself.
It is very painful when you have to gather the shattered pieces of your life and make a living out of it. But, when this happens often it turns to be fun and you relish the challenge. So after 6 years I am back to square one and reinventing myself and hopefully for the worst ;).
