A year has come to pass!

Yes. I revisited this site today and took a glance at the blog published below and Holy, almost a year since I have blogged! All kinds of emotions creeped in - nostalgia, guilt, little lost and dumbstuck (because I don't know where to start off after a year).

While others ferociously plugged away with wonderful stories on their personal blogs, I have to get into a commitment to start somewhere.

I recalled Jose Ortega Y Gasset's quote :

" We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient characteristic of life is its coerciveness: it is always urgent, "here and now" wihtout any possible postponement. Life is fired at us point blank." This moment is all we ever have, to do with as we will.

Somehow, the quote reminds me, we have to commit ourselves to live passionately in the present in the new year. Just like writing, its about commitment besides passion. No yeahbuts.

But one thing I do : Forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead
