Still Kickin’…

A Wondering WandererLeave a comment

Hi guys. Been a while. Again.

In case you have been wondering about what’s going on with the blog, let me tell you: it is not dead – it’s still alive and kickin’, just not as strongly as before, I guess. I’ve been meaning to write for some time, but just couldn’t finish anything. There have been drafts of incomplete and scattered thoughts, but nothing has materialized. Even today, there isn’t much to say, but it has been so long that I just wanted to write, no matter what ends up here.

I like web-comics, and recently came across the following one, which I think captures my current mood quite well. This is done by Gregor Czaykowski over at loadingartist.com. I like his comics, and think you should check them out too. So, here’s the comic:

This comic is actually part 3 of a still developing storyline, and here are the other currently available parts in the series: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 (this one) | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6 | Part 7 | Part 8.

The storyline has just connected really well with me, and I thought I’ll share it with you guys, in case it resonates with someone else too.

Well, I’ll keep it short today. I just wanted to be back here, writing and posting stuff. As they say, start off easy after some time off. 😁

Even though I haven’t been sharing any new content for a few months, I noticed that some kind people have still been reading my earlier stuff. I just wanted to say that even though I don’t know you guys, I’m very thankful to all of you. Knowing you are still interested is very motivating, and kinda also one of the main reasons why I wanted to be back here, writing and sharing again. I understand external validation may not be the healthiest motivation, but I’m just human, and this is something that I haven’t managed to overcome just yet. 😐

I hope to write more frequently in the coming months. I know I’ve said this earlier too, but let’s see how it goes this time. I do have some things I think you might like, including a new addition to the blog, in terms of what kind of content I post here. But for that, you’ll need to wait just a bit more.. 😉

Till then, I hope you have a good, healthy, happy life. See you again soon…

What Else Did I Miss Out On?

So the other day, I decided to leave a bit early from office. Now usually, my office timings are 11 to 8. But sometimes, I leave a bit early. And for anyone from my office reading this blog, let me clarify – I’m not shirking my work; I completed the required hours of work after reaching home! 😉

So, anyways, as I was saying: Sometimes I leave early. I do this so that I can get to see the sun set (I have a thing for sunsets). And there’s a stretch on the way back home that offers a very nice view, weather permitting.

I’ve seen some really beautiful sights this way, but this time, the view was extraordinary. Golden-orange sunlight streamed through openings in the clouds. I could make out the edges of the beams of light, but just barely. It was more like a golden fog descending through the clouds, diffusing as it approached the ground, slowly disappearing mid-air, before ever touching down. It was spectacular! I wish I had a photograph or video, but I was driving and couldn’t stop to take one. (The above beautiful image is not mine!)

Watching this amazing sight triggered a thought, which has finally culminated in today’s blog. And that thought was: What other wonders have I been missing out on?
