Does writing need an inspiration?

Blogging on personal fronts after quite a long time!! :-).. Earlier I was writing for my rock band named Defaulters. Wrote so many articles and songs for them (I will be publishing them all here on my new blog…yuppie..). Those were the days I used to write 2-3 pages seamlessly. Words had no limits and they were burning paper with the pen. The moment I left the band, I kept busy with the work and couldn’t keep up with personal blogging. Meanwhile, kept blogging on technical stuff for my organization. Well, today in our lunch session we friends were discussing about Nirvana blog written by one of my office pals. Here came the inspiration to bring me back to personal blogging again!!

Coming back to the topic, different people may have different views on the above question. Frankly speaking I couldn’t find myself in group of people who all are in favor of this and not even in those who are against this. For me writing is something that can be done anywhere, anyhow, considering anything, on and with the help of anything.

Sometimes an inspiration to write something plays an important role in density and depth of material you write. When I fell in love, I used to impress my girlfriend with some romantic Marathi stuff I had written. She always appreciated it even though I couldn’t determine how much she really understood :-):-). Be it; she is the one who gave me an inspiration to keep on writing stuff.

Everybody knows how difficult it is for s/w engineers to take out time for writing. I remember, In my earlier days in Greytrix my mode of travelling to office was BEST (BUS in mumbaiya language..373..I hate that bus..).. Getting a place to seat was like miracle in that bus. Well, the best seat is really not that comfortable for you to take out notepad and pen and write, so I came up with an innovative concept. I started writing in notes section of my mobile. The funny side is, I couldn’t work out with that also; because every time I took my cell out to write something people standing nearby started peeping in unnecessarily. In such conditions even an inspiration will also not help:-)..This is the mode when I shifted from romantic songs to quite metallic versions of romantic songs:-X..Sometimes I don’t understand why people don’t mind their own business!!

Sometimes when I seat in front of my computer and something’s going on in my mind, some phrase comes out of nowhere and I note it down. Whenever I get time I note them all on my computer and keep them to use as writing references in future. This is the great way you can collect millions of ideas from your day to day work and then work them out in your writing. Came up with my first song Aye khuda in the similar manner (Will be posting the lyrics soon.). My guitar teacher gave me a very good suggestion that I would like to share with you all, “whenever you write something don’t care about what others will think, because it’s the way you express your own feelings and not others”.

Well, this might not be that great post overall, but quite sufficient for first post..:-)..Will be posting some मराठी stuff also. Keep blogging and yes, keep smiling always:-):-)..
