Well, not that I felt like blogging, but after a long time I was really jobless, that’s when I thought of seeing what’s happenin on my blog. I type in the URL and wait… Nothin comes!!!... Now I’m worried, I’m guessing I made a typo, so I copy and paste the URL. Still nothing, now I’m worried. I’m thinking whether I’ve lost all my posts (However less in number they are…). I sign into blogger and I’m so relieved to find all my posts. I just try creating a new post and republishing the index and lo, to my delight; my blog’s back…
Just this small incident made me think about how precious my (small ;)…) blog actually is to me…
Its funny… you have all the time in the world to laze around, drink, sleep, yap, vile away time. But no time to do something productive or worthwhile- like reading the paper, blogging, surfing other blogs, keeping in touch with old friends, reading that book you bought ages ago, spending time to yourself just looking at what’s happening round you… So on and so forth… ;)
Well, can one afford to do that?...
I’m sure one can.
But at what price does it come at?.
If it comes at the price of having to sacrifice time from friends and everything else that means fun, is it worth it?...
Frankly, I believe one can never know.
So, what can be done about it?...
Honestly speaking, nothing…
I guess its just upto every individual, see what one has to gain or lose and to take a stand where he/she feels is right. And it’s very ironical that what’s right need not always be right and vice versa. Anyways, without getting deeper into my thoughts on this… Let’s just go on to something else that’s caught my fancy of late…
Friends… Sorry to disappoint u, i’m not talking bout the hit TV series. Just friends in general. How many of us know what a friend actually means?... You may know what it feels like to have one or to have lost one. But do we actually know what a friend means?. That got me thinking… What do I think a friend is?. The first thought that rushes into my mind is someone that you care for… But then is it just a one way thing?... Well, for me I guess not. Its always stronger when you know it’s the same the other way round too.
But is that what the world thinks too?... Well, Wikipedia doesn’t think so.
Wiki says, “A friend is any person that you like or know. People who are friends talk to each other and spend time together. They also help when you are in trouble.”(Funny to see how they defined it as a one way thing and not mutual).
In any case, How lame, huh?... Or so I thought until I read further on…
“A true friend should be there for you no matter what. They should help you in times of need, but usually at the times when you need them most they disappear.”
This totally cracked me up.
LOL, must say this was an classic…
Anyways, WRT this I started thinking bout whether, when it came to friends, I was wrong or they were right. Needless to say, I got lost I my thoughts… ;)
[Always a nice excuse to get out of tricky situations… ;)]
In any case, I’d love to believe that what I’ve always known and believed will always hold true…
