The Acceptance...

Sincerely.. I want, no one post of mine to be the best, for all of them are my reflections, my shadows under the massive tree called Moods, round the clock..

Everytime time i attempt to break the silence, i remind myself not to confess through my words the inconsistent being that i am. But words hardly pay a heed..

They emerge when they feel like, not realising its lunch time..not letting me get off my seat, prompting me to concede..

And i silently concur, flabbergasted at its command over my being, over my thoughts and actions..

Those little pieces of a puzzle that stubbornly refused to appear when i badly wanted them to, are synchronizing now, teasing me of my inability..

I gracefully surrender myself before their celestial powers and secretly gloat inside, pleased with my fortune..

For I'm their humble tool to let the world know,

"Words cull writers from the world. They reveal themselves to us. They colonize us. They commission us. They insist on being told."

Inspired by Arundhati Roy.

Glad you share the same feeling!.. I've always ended giving up when i force myself to write, the best come uninvited...

Thanks!

To sit down and write is hardly pre-meditated.. in fact, its more of an urge, something which you might feel like anytime.. and sometimes it can be a crazy time as well .. considering that I thot of just writing in 2 words yesterday at 1:30 night! :-D

You said it right! There is no one book of mine without a scribble in the last few, otherwise untouched pages.
Needless to say, filled in at the most unexpected hour.

Cheers.

About the nightouts, y be jealous, just follow suit :-p

Anshuman Ghosh said...

how abt hitting semi-nightouts on the trot ? well, a semi-nightout => not working the night away, but calling it a day(night?) at say, 3?

I guess thats the way to get away from falling-flat-on-keyboard, dont hit a full night out, just fall short by a few minutes :-D

Although, if u do hit such late nights often, one does look like a zombie-in-the-office :-D
