Why must we all write?

 Writing for self-pleasure is an art. Writing to keep an outlet is divine art. We who are endowed with such faculty must keep writing. Writing always beckoned me like a light for a fly. Some unexplained pleasure. It started with story writing, short story writing, poems when I was a mere kid. Then it stopped till I went to higher grades. I started keeping journals ( maybe inspired by Diary of Anne Frank?!!?). Innermost thoughts came pouring out like anything. It was a great outlet. non-invasive one.

Cut to the time in college/university- the writings became more mature. Poems in Hindi/English became more lyrical, more meaningful- more romantic in nature. The writings became a little mature. Then again a stop- till I started writing for pleasure again. This Blog ( which is highly irregular).. but I felt writing here my heart out is better than losing it all.

Finally lot of articles- some ghostwriting- which I cannot cite also (sad thing!!). Thanks to my employer which has a robust system of publishing our articles with a little bit of marketing touch- there are at least 2-3 articles in the public domain. 

There was a lull after I started the new role of marketing and application engineering leader in India. The pressure during the craziest semiconductor crisis time was too much to let out anything in mind.

But suddenly an opportunity to write - 2 articles... And our Marcom lady- WeiTing helped to publish it. Thanks to her great editing skills - 2 more articles-

The first one is on bis infotech-- on-chip security.

https://online.fliphtml5.com/vzlvb/aovu/ (Page -40)-- This one is on the future trend of the electronics industry in times tech Buzz.

As soon as it came out I showed it to Birsa and Amrita. Birsa was this time my proofreader before I submitted- so he said... I have read it earlier. the flip book style of Timestech looked innovative to him. I shared with Baba and many friends. Some read, most ignored :-)

Some came back with polite comments- which pleased me a lot. 


But we all must write... not for content creation but more to record what we have thought as thinking beings.

Finding a positive start

 It's all in mind- so if you are positive- things will go your way.

2021 starts with lot of promise and apprehensions. the proportion is not decided yet. The schools are opening- but confused state- whether to send for offline mode or online. Normalization will take time- so during these uncertain times- we can only take things as they come. one day at a time. Positive start is- about what I am thinking. we are all healthy and some peripheral information good for us.

Finally East Bengal manages to win their first game in ISL. That's positive. Saurav Ganguly--- got a successful operation done- another positive. Parents keeping good health- positive. Amrita and Birsa- all smiles- so that is positive. My friends- all look to be happy and excited. Some replies with emojis, some repleis in impersonal generic messages. So i think all good.

2021 will bring out the character and will also make us humbler. Looking forward to it.
