Dear Friend,
I know its been several days since I penned to you. I was not satisfied with the last missive. And I was simply knocked down for no reason. And then I came across a quote which goes on like this,
"Writers have to keep on writing if they want to mature, like caterpillars endlessly chewing on leaves."
A sudden rush of positive wind induced me to go with whatever I have.
Writing this to you on a beautiful rainy day. It is been raining continuously for 8 hours. It is a perfect weather to bunk office and I did bunk ;-)An old friend called up and planned for a meet and super happy that I am actually having chances to go out on weekends. I have recently discovered Instagram and I must say I am obsessed. I am now grinding my old photos from the nooks and corners and Instagramming it. And I also sense that I am slowly getting rid of my photo phobia ;-) There was an offer on penguin publications so purchased tons of books in Flipkart. I think I have collection phobia. Collecting and keeping the books in the closet .I am making a new rule: No more new books until I've read all of these.Not one. Not a library book. Not a free book. Not a thrift store book.I am going to read every single one of these wonderful books and then – THEN! – I will allow myself to read something new.I’m committed to finishing all of this stack before I can bring another new book into this house.
I didn't check after my bucket list. Now it is time.
To do list:
- Digitize Old Photos
- Try oil pulling
- Visit Anna Centenary Library
- Meet the dentist
- Return the library books
Avowal: I will try to visit a place every weekends.
