For some wierd reason I am in a rather introspective state of mind right now...I think its time that I analyse myself...infact its long overdue. Have been interacting with a lot of people lately..people with diverse, and sometimes absolutely different interests that mine. I think its fun to interact with people who share the same ideas, notions about things and events as you do, but its a lot more fascinating when you do that with people who are only as similar to you as chalk and cheese. There is this huge pandora's box that opens before you.. a box you never knew even existed...and that is what is so exhilirating about such an experience. You begin exploring your own self..delve into areas hitherto uncared for, find space for yourself, and your thoughts...and do what I'm doing now...figure out where you lack and work on it.

I read a lot, but I guess "a lot" will not suffice...voracious is what I should become...there is a mammoth amount of knowledge that I need to acquire, about things that I am interested in, and more so on issues that don't really catch my imagination. That is a challenge all right, and one that I am willing to undertake.

Speaking of challenges, I have a bigger weakness that I need to triumph over. I think a lot, and pondering so much , even over trivial issues eats up a lot of my time, and energy..and sometimes even my sanity. I must not let my mind gallop away, especially at times when a mere trot would suffice!

While I think and plan and plan even more, I sometimes tend to lose track of the real objective I started off with...I lose interest. Sustaining interest beyond a point at times becomes an uphill task. Why do I let it happen to me? Motivation is what I need to give myself. And I will. I am.

I might have flayed myself rather publicly today, written things I wd'nt have told anyone in the regular course, but that is what writing does to me..its brings out a totally different me...am not very garrulous generally, maybe a little restricted when it comes to expressing what I really feel, but hand me the pen, and I run on an altogether different tangent!! :D
