This and that!

I've for long been wanting to post on this blog. Most times, it's only been a desire to post and let the whole world know,
"Hey! Even I can have a blog and post regularly on it!"
And it doesn't matter what I say. It's a form of catharsis, just like the bursting of crackers in Deepavali. But the standard of perfection that I set for myself, sometimes just causes a lot of trouble. Like the previous sentence I typed, I prolly used the 'backspace' key more than I used all the other keys put together. I've decided now that I won't be using the backspace key for the rest of the post. Though i said that, I actually used it once. Maybe this will meke myself less harshon myself and therefore onot be expecting much from others either. As u might hive noticed, there were a lot of unintended mistakes and everytime, my mind keeps sayng , "Arun: ! WhYou have gone crazy" Doing something new , with awareness , has its own charm. Mistakes, when done with aware4ness, cease to be mistakes. Or atleast prevent them from happeneing in future. The biggest fear I had in the past was "What would others thing about me if i made a fool of myself bny making a mistake." I happened to come across Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's talk where he asaid, :" My dear! Poeple have no time to think about your mistakes. They have many more problems to bother about. When you make a mistake, say sorry and move on. It's a win - win situation. When you make a mistake, you learn and others laugh." I thought it was brilliant. Since then, I've in every chance that I have received, not been afraid of makign a fool of myself. It's really stress-relieving. It's better than not taking the chance to learn and late r regretting for not having done it. So I hope you all would forvige me for all th e mistakes in this post and hope that' you'll for get it soon. I can't wait to see the expression on your faces upon reading this blog. It's kinda laoads of fun for me:)
