Why write?

All those thoughts you’ve got, what do you do of it?

Organise thoughts

For someone like me, who consumes a lot of content—just about anything—the miracle of human consciousness eventually kicks in, and I find myself pondering various thoughts. This space serves as a channel where I can try to articulate my reflections after observing, processing, and adding meaning to them.

Self Discovery

You don’t usually see the dots connecting when looking forward, but when you look back, you understand who you are based on what you’ve done. For someone who often has a stream of thoughts in the background, this space will capture those finer dots and may help fine-tune the process of understanding oneself better.

Creativity and Expression

As someone who isn’t exactly an open book on social media or in gatherings (more like the person who’s thinking of the perfect response 10 minutes later). That’s why this space works for me—something I can call my own, no filters, where I can toss my thoughts around and see what sticks. A little creativity, throwing in some wits and puns, and definitely more puns—writing should feel like a good time, not a task.

Leaving mark

I turned 31! But I don’t feel as old as that number sounds. Deep down, I’m still that kid who wants to ride a bike all summer long, with nothing else to worry about. It’s been at least 15 years since those days ended. What have I done with all those years? Honestly, I don’t remember much. But did I have an amazing time? Absolutely! I’ve been places, experienced joy, grief, accomplishments, and more. I’ve had million-dollar (in my mind) startup ideas, wild theories on the workings of the universe… But what did I do with all that? Do I even remember them all? Moving forward, yes! (Have I tried writing before? Sheepishly, yes!)

Note:

This is an ever-evolving section where I want to remind myself, time and again, why I write and why I want to write.

“Hey! Once it’s out there, a post on the internet can’t be rewritten!”

But since I own the domain, I’ll just leave this here: ‘Yeah, it’s public, but I still own it. Deal with it!’"
