First Post

Sairam.  Hello World.

This is my space.  My little corner where I hope to indulge my passion.  Give expression to my thoughts just as they are, unmindful of what such free speech means to me or to anyone else.  Unaffected by considerations of sense and sensibility.  Indifferent towards questions such as the relevance of what I have to say.  Intellectual bohemianism of a kind, if you like.  A way of asserting my personal freedom that just stops short of the next person's nose.  Freedom that I thought would be mine when I left the incarceration of  corporate employment but that has eluded me so far.

I hope to write about the ridiculous and the sublime in this space.  About cabbages and kings.  Of people, places and events around me that I consider worth writing about.  That is what the title of my blog suggests.  Even if it were to smack of egotism stopping just short of narcissistic.  It is randomness that might appear to be even scatter brained.

I want to start by recording my thanks to the Lord for giving me this moment that allows me the opportunity to make this post.  Even though I realise that this moment might be short lived.  More about why that might be so in another post - if there be one. 

Such an opening with a praise to the Lord is only appropriate, given the deeply religious agnostic that I am.  That is a confusing oxymoron, isnt it?  Well that is another hallmark of this blog.  It is a place for me to offload all the numerous contradictions that people seem to see in me.  A place for me to hang my psyche out for anyone and everyone to read about it. 

Watch this little nook for all that and more.  But do not get too excited.  You might not find much to titillate your inquisitiveness.  I am a Scorpio after all - as fiercely private as I am possessive.

Hasta manana...
