Why blog ?

I kind of write on and off , mostly in my roam notes, or notes app. Very rarely on blogs and or on substack, as one can see from the number of posts that got published. I always work up to writing something in public, but my mind typically questions itself as to what the point is. I don’t think I have anything particularly novel to offer in terms of writing. My command over the english language is passable. I dont know whether I have significant frames or views to offer to the stream of consciousness that is the blogosphere.

I am typically happy lurking on the internet, reading other blogs/ substacks , looking at different frames to view and experience the world , making notes of passages/posts I like , adding to my re-reading list.

Of late though, I have been reading these posts - especially by Henrik Karlsson and wondering whether I should publish more. At least, to release the pent up emotions about some of the things I read/think about and put them out into the internet. I have also come to realize that , personal frames, even if not novel, are worth repeating across space and time. So, here’s to more posts.
