The last post

Thymoments has been a good place for me to capture and cherish the moments of my life. Through it have written like I never thought I would. Back in primary and high school my languages used to give me a hard time, much as I thought that I had outdone myself in writing a good composition it was only according to me! According to the teacher well it was simply average work, nothing to report about. Wait till I found myself in a position at work where I needed to communicate on a regular basis and just not to anyone but to important people, my clientele more like sell and convince someone to buy through email and this was not only a matter of marks at the end of the term but a matter of bread at the end of the day, I needed a breakthrough. Among others, thymoments was one such way, I learnt how to better put thought on paper.

When I started living by myself and needed someone who can always be there anytime to listen to me, thymoments fulfilled a small bit, maybe bigger than what am calling small of that need. The blog made me make ‘news’ in local press for some extra coins at the end of the month – talk of being able to write a good composition :), many of the goals have been realised.

After a lot of thinking and deliberating I have decided to stop writing for thymoments. While some of its goals have been accomplished there others that I can say are deep rooted in me and i have new thoughts and ideas. This is my last post on this blog, however I don’t want to stop writing, to stop capturing and cherishing thy moments, I want to keep some of the dreams and the ideas I developed since June 2008 alive and I want to keep working on my artistic side, 'potential unused turns into pain' R. Sharma. With the many reasons and in line with my theme for this year, 2011 is a new century for new things and also for a new blog of which I share with my dear followers in due time.

To my blog, thanks. To my followers and other fans thank you too, until my next blog. Kamama

Of my Friday Evening

What to talk about? Will I be interesting or boring? Will I be asked tough questions, or none at all? Will I supply the right answers? Will my talk contribute even a little bit to their knowledge, overall betterment? Will there be a message or two for someone to go home with? Will they discard it all?

I wonder all those as I wonder how my 30mins talk to the Rotaract Muthaiga club will be this evening. As a member and past secretary where I used to attend most of the meetings, take minutes and critically analyze the many guests speakers that we have had and the kind of impact they left to the bunch of young people who look out to the future with great expectations now it’s my turn. I don’t work in those fields that touch everyone’s life like a banker or an insurer or a doctor or a nutritionist but perhaps I can throw in some agricultural matters, statistical issues, information communication matters eeew that doesn’t even excite me!

Much as am not a guru of some sort I think that everyone has a story to tell. Life is a journey and narrating the adventures of it and the lessons learnt make a good enough story. Since the topic is mine to choose and I have the liberty to talk about anything and everything, then I believe that sharing the little bits and pieces that makes me me aside from what is seen on the outside will be a good enough story and more so to people that I consider friends, as for the enemies I pray that they will have the grace to bear.

No more sweating it out over unrealistic expectations, simply me and simply what I feel comfortable sharing. Maybe one day in a couple of years when am a guru of something then I will have a more focused discussion but one has to start with baby steps and has to be brave enough to take them.
