It has been a long time since I wanted to start putting my thoughts out.
I have tried writing in a personal diary but that habit was difficult to inculcate and I would revert to writing in Google Keep. I then realised that I also want to write so that other can read it and find it useful. So here is this blog for that validation I am seeking from others.
Now I will go a little depth on what made me start this.

Childhood:

We all have written essays in school in English Grammar course. I did not like to follow the convention which we were usually graded on. I did not give much importance to the subject and also struggled with language as I would shift across different cities every 1-2 year.
Although I could not learn one language well, I understood the different biases people had. I had to always make new friends but also learnt to be alone in my thoughts in case I move to a new class mid year where already people have friends and groups are formed.

Philosophy:

In 2025, I joined Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy, I have been interested in philosophy since a long time, I just did not know what it is called. Also my stigma of Arts because of being an engineer stopped me from pursuing it in a structured form.

While giving the 1st year exams where I was forced to write answers on a sheet. I realised I am not that bad at articulating things, and I need to start at least attempting to write.

Books:

I have been the person who did considered people who called themselves bookworms or bibliophiles crazy. This made me never give importance to this habit of reading books. This stemmed from the fact that in school people read Chetan Bhagat, Twilight, Harry Potter, Fifty shades of Grey and other masala content and discussed them. These did not interest me. And my parents thankfully, only bought me encyclopaedias to read. I had no guidance to read genuine good books. Not much people around me read anymore, and if they do, they are self-help books.
Thankfully few years back I met @epigrammatic_bibliophile on Instagram. The reason social media was made worked for me and from him I realised the importance of reading.
Last 3 years, I have read books on various topics, which made me eventually realise that these authors are not very different from me. So why don’t I write a book.
This blog will also serve as the purpose like a trailer or pilot of whether I can write interesting stuff which people will read.

If you have read till here, you either are a friend who has shown enough interest to read this or the internet has somehow lead you here which is beautiful.
Thank you for going through my rambling and spending your precious time here.
