Revisiting

I am visiting my blog after a very long time and to my surprise the record shows that I last updated it in Aug 2009 and now that is surely a long time...I attempted on many occasions in the past couple of years to post a topic or two but was not able to and you would wonder why?...Different priorities were introduced into my life, bigger professional and personal responsibilities were handed over to me and as a result I had to give my priorities different weight and unfortunately some of my interests and passions in life had to take a back seat and writing unfortunately being one of them.

On the eve of 2013 I vowed to write again, to definitely paint sometime in the course of this year whilst I am juggling different acts and surely to make more time to read and also take care of my well being...It is almost end of March 2013 and if you ask how much more of reading or writing or any art work I have finished my answers to all your questions would be in the negative. I read on daily basis but it is work related reading and of course I write but they are mainly legal opinions, and daily use my writing skills in drafting legislations, policies and work documents. I miss writing what reflects on my mind or expressing a particular topic which helps my heart beat.

Today after a very long week and after putting my 5month 4 week old baby Jaber to nap I decided to pass by my blog and here I am trying to filter the zillion thoughts which cross my mind and to a certain extent keep me awake at night....

I would like to commit to my blog even if it means a few minutes a day...writing and painting has always been therapeutic just like when you sprinkle lavender on your bed before retiring to sleep or when you add zest into your bowl of fresh salad.
