I had promised myself that when I land in US, I will diligently maintian my experiences on this blog. I was extremely excited about the prospect of living in US. I always wanted to go to US, grew up dreaming of the American Life. I thought I would have so much to write, so much to be excited about and so much to share with the world. Well, I did have lots of exciting times, I did have so much to write, I did have so much to share, but then I had so much to live too, so much to do and explore, I never really got around writing.
I completely forgot the blogging part of my life.
How ironic that I am getting back to this after I have completely finished my stint in US, completed living the American dream. It's 3 years now, I came back to India this January, and now I am attempting to write again.
Nevertheless, it's good to be back again on this site, hoping to be a regular. Let's see how this goes this time.

Why?
Why do I want to write? Why should I express myself? What difference does it make? Who's going to read? What will anyone gain by reading what I write? What's there to read? What purpose does it serve?
Or, maybe I have the answer.
I read somewhere that, we can only control how we respond to events, but we cannot control the event. Jotting it down somewhere to how I respond, will help me remember If and when I encounter those events again.
It might just be cathartic to write it down, it might help me bring thoughts to fruition, might help me bring perspective to the inner commotion. Or maybe when I come back to these jottings, it might help me transport myself back to an earlier time.
So will it just be a catalogue of events surrounding my life and my responses to those - Hmm I don't think so. I might also comment on events completely unconnected to me. Should I do that?
My attempt to justify leads me to more questions.
Will it help anyone else who might read - maybe, maybe not. We all, anyway draw from our experiences, we can never truly understand from other's experience. So go on decide for yourself if you want to read my musings.
There's so much garbage out there, why should I add to it ?
