Read an Amazing Blog today!!!

Read this beautiful blog by Kanurite today.

I loved the protaganist, loved the lyrical prose and particularly loved the poem (in italics) used in the post. I have a liking for poetic prose; for the abstract pictures painted by words and for the lyrical prose that flows ooh-so-smoothly. Maybe that is why I liked this piece of writing. And also because I could relate to the protaganist who is kind of confused about what she wants in life.

This post also touches upon the daily rituals we all have. Yeah they are comforting most of the times but at times they make me very frustated and restless. Sometimes we do not want to conform, just do not want to conform. We do not want to get up and read the paper first-thing-in the morning like so many people we know. So we go out for a ride on the bike every morning before dawn and watch the sunrise. But does it not soon become just another mundane habit and do we not become a prisoner of our own desire to be different. A strong consious desire of not wanting to conform more often than not leads to total conformation.

This is somehow like the Hindi film industry where everyone wants to be hatke (different) and wants to make movies which are different from the usual run-of-the-mil. But then a new stereotype of hatke movies has emerged; Ram Gopal Varma's movies being a good example of this genre. Well I am hindi movie buff so more on this trend later.
