'A Greenhorn's Dream'

Here I am penning down my first article for my blog. As I sit in front of my lappy, editing my blog, a novice at that, I dream of that rare possibility of my blog being visited by a socialite, or a mandarin some day.


          To start with, I must mention this that this blog is for you my friends.The reason behind the birth of this blog is motivation. Motivation to change. Change the outlook. Change the perception of some aphorisms. You will get to know gradually.


           But let me first introduce myself a bit. I am what you call a simple, fun loving boy who wishes to be hugely successful and happy in life.You may think ' huh!, what's new in that? every human being on this planet  has the same trite congenital wish'. All I have to say is, I am no different. To be different just for the sake of it wont serve any purpose, according to me. 


          The twenty years of my life so far, have taught me a lot and has immensely helped me in shaping up as a mature adult. Before I put my first step forward towards being a responsible citizen of my country  I stand alone and still. Reflecting back, my experiences so far, some good ,some not so good, I try to recollect them. People close to me say, dont dwell on the bad ones just ignore them. But how can I, when these are the ones which have taught me the most? 


          Experiences gained at different junctures of life are the ones that a person carries with him forever till eternity beckons him. Experiences gained by me at school, at home, with friends, and with relatives have helped in shaping me up to what I am today. 


          As one grows older his or her perception of the things happening around also grows. Gradually, he or she begins to voice his or her opinion. I too am passing through that phase. Facts which were just pedestrian G.K questions, social issues that were just a mere passing fad, until recently,  have suddenly assumed paramount importance and have begun incessantly occupying a large part of my thinking self. Probably this is what growing up is all about. Probably this is what being mature is all about. 


          Standing at this juncture of life, the subliminal truth is, I dream of becoming an author. My friends, dont get shocked to hear this. Though I am pursuing my  bachelors degree in electronics engineering yet I have come to realize that this is something which I was never passionate about. In our country a child rarely gets the opportunity to hone his or her own interests, own talents. But I also do know that to cherish my dream I must first excel in my present so called 'foisted' interest. 


          So, this blog is about my perception , my opinion, and my experiences of not the ostensible but the unfeigned truth.
           
           Do feel absolutely free to post your comments and suggestions, (even abuses). Without your support and ideas my perception would be incomplete.


                                                                                                                             
   Yours truly,
    
    Koustav
