Taking some 'TIME' to ಬ್ಲಾಗ್

Oh, God, I can't believe I did not get time in the last one and half months nearly, to update by blog. Amid all this huge traffic of life (Mainly job, domestic work like cooking, cleaning, family, commuting, lack of clarity of what and how to do things etc),I have been thinking of writing about so many many things. But what to do? I did not get time. This brings to me to one interesting point.

Earlier I disliked to hear words like "I have no time", "I did not get time", "I am busy" and so on. The irony is now I am taking refuge in these bland verbiages.

I am basically an idealist and read a lot of things about timeliness, ideals in my middle, high school and pre-university college days that I still cherish. I was following time, discipline and taking everything in good stride. Everything was going good and even if something bad happened, I used to take it as it is. When others used to say they did not get time, I wondered and did not understand what were they saying.

But now things have changed a lot and I have become one of them. Due one or the other reason, I put off so many things. Consequently things pile up on one another. For all I have to wait for the weekend. If I can't do one thing this weekend it gets postponed to next weekend and so on. Like this, I have a long list of things to do in the next four weekends, that means a week! OMG! Like updating the blog now. So all these days I "just did not have time to update my blog". Rather my commitment to blogging failed. Bombed.

This leads me to recollect a great sentence read in some magazine, paper or book long ago. WE all, actually, have sufficient time. We can't even imagine how much we have. What we lack is not time, but the WILL. Clarity. Commitment. Dedication. In fact, the greatest blessing that we all have is nothing else, but TIME.

My Child
After this, let me get back to blogging. My child (three months old now) has been one of the greatest blessings that I have received from God. Seeing him growing is truly great for me. A wonder indeed!

That he is so innocent, so dependent, so cute is beyond my expression. He is a rich source of joy to me. Seeing him, listening to his ununderstandable sounds, watching his movements is truly great. It's a great discovery for me to understand and assimilate how a child grows day by day. I have so many things to write about him. Truly emotional!
