Alright, its here and kickin’ !!!

It’s been a long time since the idea of following other’s idea sprang up in my mind – that is to write. I have always been avid reader, non fiction, if I may add. So, it wasn’t a surprise to me that I liked the idea of blogging.

Blogs are often a reflection of what’s going on in this world and as they say, Truth is stranger than Fiction – and perhaps more interesting as well.  So, it should again not be a surprise that I will be sharing the world and the life within, with all the minds alike here.

Starting a blog was a New Year resolution for me, and actually something that I wanted to start on the New Year day. Nevertheless, I am happy I have actually penned down a few words and started it, unlike a few of my other resolutions, which haven’t materialized yet. But hey, I still have 315 days (including the leap day) left in the year to fulfill them.

Alright, that’s been a good starting point for the blog, but what is it going to be about? Hmmm…quite frankly, I am not sure either! I am a die hard Schumi fan, so rest assured it’s gonna carry some F1 stuff, even though he does not race anymore. I actually play soccer in a league here, so there could be a splash of David Beckham thrown in there, just down the road in LA. Something about cricket….yeah I know we are sick of it, but we still love it!!! There could be a business flavor to it as well…I enjoy investing in markets although I haven’t hopped onto the DOW and NASDAQ yet – Still living in the swings of SENSEX and NIFTY. How about some movies, I would surely love a few of them down the road. But more importantly, it will be a lot about current affairs and the realities of life – harsh sometime, pleasant otherwise. It will be about some less important stories which might not hog the newspaper headlines…

So, here I am with my blog – Think ‘Et Cetera’ … A Latin expression that means “and other things” or “and so on” … Talk about everything else!

Cheers!
