I've been there... done that.
Been where and done what? Disappeared, and come back promising my readers that I'd be more regular with my posts and catching up with my blog-dost's posts. But... there is only one AJai Ravi Kesavan. Thank God for that will you please. : )
Blogging sort of went in to the background. After the initial high(which lasted a year) I sort of let it run through. Sort of became complacent. I'm known for this. Most of my friends reading this post will be nodding their heads reading this and saying to themselves.."yes.. that's our AJai".
Well... I am like that. I don't like it. To be fair I have been kinda busy. Been sort of running around a lot. Doing a lot of traveling. So getting time to write was one thing.
And the biggest mistake I made was waiting for something to write. That's not good. You've just got to go with the flow sometimes. Write whatever comes to you at the moment. Like I am doing now.
Blogging is not a high stakes game. It's an outlet. If people like your stuff... good for you. If they don't... doesn't matter. You've got to go with your flow. It's the place to experiment. To fine-tune your talent. To practice, to learn and to grow.
I thought I'd keep a day in the week for blogging... or something like that. But I don't want it to be that way. It should be more instinctive. That's better na?
So Dear Reader, if you've made it till here you're obviously someone who cares a lot. Do come back here. I hope to have something exciting for you each time. Take Care.

FINALLY! I was wondering where you had disappeared off to. But I guess I know now :)
Welcome back!
No amount of being busy justifies staying away from blogging, unless of course you are no longer passionate about it!
What can I say?
I hope to see your updates from time to time, as I, along with many others have always enjoyed the characteristic upfront-ness in ur pots!
Hate to see such a blogger slink away into oblivion and more so cast his blog to death!
Please..........
I always keep coming back to your blog... and no complaints about u going AWOL ;)
i do that all the time. For me, its the problem that i find myself really unable to commit to timelines :-/
I agree with u, blogging gives opportunities to GROW. Nice post. Enjoyed reading it.
Best wishes.:)
Going with the flow!Thats the spirit, so next time dont wait for ideas to come to you, just throw in your thoughts like youve just done, so that we can say here's Ajai ..at his best :)
it happens with everybody..to me blogging is how I feel about everything in my life and world around me..and sometimes someone's reaction gives me a totally different perspective, so it is teaching me also a few things.
i think i know exactly what you mean, the novelty wearing off and all that. i have slackened as well and maybe even take a sabbatical but being impulsive and erratic i may come up with things every now and then...good thing is i do like to come back here to read some of my favourite people.
around or not, i wish you well and thanks for dropping by.
Taking a break from your routine is always something everyone must consider, be it for anything that you do. Because a break can always release the pressure and when you return your mind would have rebooted and would be fresh with energy.
But for you, no more breaks! You have taken enough. ;-) Start writing again. Like in Star Wars, I wish you - "May the flow be with you."

Chorry! Will try and rectify my mistakes. :)

I know... you commit to something and something else always comes in the way. I hate that. But I love blogging. So I'd like to be little more regular. :)
