Books are
gift from dream land
When the
soul dance
it doesn’t
ask a thing.
Sky is the
roof
world our
home.
In the periphery
of eternal,
learning dwells
in little steps of hope.
Words weave
their magic
into pages
of questions
that we
quarry for answer.
And so we
live infallible
in the shadow
of faith
so we live
forever…
Blogs are published works
…someone
the other day said “…but you haven’t published?” I beg to differ. Publishers don’t decide who
should be published and how to sell. They
no longer set the bench mark nor are they arbitrators on quality and content. I may be ignored. I may be unacknowledged. But I exist and
exist in all my ferocity. Thanks to this medium, this space. I for a moment am also
thinking of millions of brilliant lives passed by over the years, over the centuries …being
denied a space. That is the civilizational loss I was talking about. It’s a collective
loss that haunts this society.
We live in exciting times, and this is beginning of new history. These are times of common people; the access through social media has made it a tremendous world. I am so happy to be here when the history is unfolding into a world that is egalitarian, atleast in the assimilation/dispersal of views. Idea of self worth is amazing motivation. Though one must add that in India entrenched groups run the show (its quite difficult to trespass the family&friends&their Charter Accountant coterie!!)…but then the wonder is that social media is boundary less. Arab spring was initiated by people on the street using social media. It is happening all around us in increasing regularity. Malala too is a blogger….

So
when we blog, we are putting our views on public platform and that is
publishing. All the blogs are published work. The onus is on people who want to
get connected and create a better world…
