It’s been a while since I wrote something, elsewhere or on
this blog. It literally feels like the fountain pen being used after years. The
ink has dripped through inside but is unable to dribble through the nib of the
pen, and smoothly on to the paper. As you try to write, you scratch the paper and
mildly damage the nib. Just like the ink, I have thoughts in my mind but am
unable to carve them out into words.
Why? What happened? Has it not been a good time in the past?
Am I so engrossed in the day to day life that I forgot how to express in words?
No, I did not; well, I hope not.
I know that the wheels are a little rusty now, but they sure
can still move. It will take a little time, I will need a little inertia to
push myself and that indeed will take some effort and some pain.
Pain, oh yes. That, we always experience; every time
something begins (or ends) that little word pain is like the threshold energy
we need, to get started, to begin and to endure.
So, what is there to exaggerate in this? Why make a fuss? Is this the first time I am experiencing this?
Surely it is not. There is nothing new in this. Also, don’t other people
undergo the same and just still keep going? There is nothing unique about it.
All you got to do is keep going. Can anything else help? I highly
doubt it. But, given my little experience of life and of people, I might be
wrong. Over time, everything fades away, just like the early morning fog, like
it was never there, was just a dream.
Yes, the visibility is currently low, it is indeed hazy all
around; there are some things to remember and there are some to forget. But all I
need to remind myself is that; this too shall pass, this too shall pass.
