addy and his wit i think he is suffering from the block we discussed about thats why after the girls :P ...get rid of the block soon bro :P :D ;)

Guess I am this week end!

lol...good luck to that...

dear restless

thanks for reaching out and connecting!

As you said ,Blogging indeed is such a therapeutic pastime.Even when we don't have business goals or pretensions to being famous writers,we all need to have our say.Even when few people read our blogs and we don't crash blog nomination records,the act of putting it all on the web is a great way for us to showcase our honest feelings,skills,interests-infact our whole personality.

And I feel that bloggers are a great community-always encouraging and connecting to your thoughts-which sometimes does not really happen with real life people.

Infact one reason I started to blog was I felt very misunderstood by people around me due to my interest in fitness and nutrition.They assumed I am on a perpetual diet and want to emulate the starlets.

Whereas for me fitness is about finding the untapped potential of my physical abilities and enhancing them to be strong -from inside-out.

Varsha,

I think you're correct. We all have our passions in life, but often the people around us don't share them and we tend to bore/irritate them if that is all we ever talk about. In a blog, the people likely to be reading are the people likely to care. We are exposed to somewhat less judgmental people. We can follow what we love without caring whether other people care, because after all if they don't care they can refrain from reading, right?

If I gave impromptu book reviews to people all the time I think I would have been very, very unpopular. :) However, I want to share my love with people - and I think this is a great way.

Sakhi!

Look we are already bonding!Age no bar!!

Totally. :) 

Hey,

I blog not to give a form to my feelings, neither do I write a blog to get famous midst my pals. Blogging is one of my hobbies. I listen to music because it eases my tension and believe or not, Blogging takes the load off my shoulders. Whenever I feel stressed out, I think of my blog and phew! everythin flies away! Does it happen to you guys too?

bye,

Swe.

Oh yes Swetha! i am completely in love with my blog!! Finding a medium to express myself has made me happy and content.  I am mostly thinking what shall I write next?! In fact, sometimes, i am talking to myself dictating the whole article in my mind! Its de-stressing, its a friend who hears u out without judging u, and then u have readers, followers, commenting about what u write, its a huge huge encourgement.  I thoroughly enjoy it!

Bonding is perk of blogging! I have a bond with the whole indiblogger team! Come to think of it I didn't even know these people existed few months back and now I am parting with them! It feels awesome! Indiblogger has a special place in my heart!

Truly Addy! simply writing ur blog would have been boring had there not been this sharing part of it..... it amazing to think.... i will repeat ur words '" I didn't even know these people existed few months back and now I am interacting with them and lookign forward to their comments and their posts. It feels awesome!

well don't know much......but this is what i have got from my blog.....in last 3 years...........

good money ...which helped me especially during collage life.......but that was when my blog was young...............now i write .... for my readers to read.....telling them what's happening at the other end of the line ................ though i still blog of money.......but now it's not the most important part..................

well tanu di and others here i totally agree blogging without sharing is just like writing in your journal you know what you have written,you know where it is kept,for the rest its a introvert writing and scribbling on pages,people are just so judgmental bout others appearance others behavior and all i wish some they will take a look at their self and judge themselves....and so far blogging is concerned i blog coz i choose too, and for those who think this ain't something serious well guys i think you need to watch out some saas bahu soap then...................

That's a nice topic, Restless

I have so many reasons for blogging that I could not write them here. I have posted them on my blog. Please see them if you will.

Hi Raja Indrajit, am glad u liked the topic! sure will c ur blog.

I used to write diary and make scrap books since 10yrs old.....always hid them under my bed and between my clothes, those looked like the safest place on earth at that point of time...ha ha ha....now I just do it online....

I am a person with lots of unspoken emotions, desires, needs and wants but blogging makes it all possible for me. When I blog, I am unaltered!! Ranjini is what you see in my blogs!

hi ranjini Kalidass! i

 must say wow! We are so much alike.

I had been writing hindi poetry for years, on pieces of paper here and there, and then collected them in a diary and I hid that diary from all the world.  Those were my emotions poured in the ink.  Then, some day a friend suggested me to blog, my world changed since then.  But unlike u, I still have inhibitions, and am taking time to speak my heart out.

but, really nice to hear ur side of the story! shall check ur blog soon dear!

well i dont know if i must talk about it here but i have some hindi poems too and it is just what you say restless...its in a diary hid from all and i havent yet put them up on any of my blogs some of them are cheekhein, pratibimb,aur main stabdh reh gaya, samay ka pahiya and a few more 

divz!

that's good. why don't u post them on your blog?  If u r thinking whether a hindi post should be on english blog, i would say, its fine. Its better to have one blog and work on it instead of two.

all the best!

well next time i ham having a block again the first person i will think about is will be you....you definately come around with good ideas for me...this time once i finish with 37 royd street  i will for sure put up the hindi poems dont worry....

so sweet! thanks!

I started blogging 5 years ago when i felt I needed some forum to express my thoughts and also to share the many poems i wrote. Soon, it became a way for me to stream line the million thoughts i had in my head and it has helped me evolve as a writer. I cherish a dream of becoming a published author someday. 

Hi Harini ! just visited ur blog ! Its nice that u incorporate your daily thoughts, thinking aloud as u call it into it.  a ncie way to channelize ur thoughts and feelings.
